We always had Dutch Babies for Sunday-after-church lunches. But mom called them "Oven Omlets"

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

In other news, I apparently made one of my tests way too hard. Only three people even figured out how to approach it by themselves. I have no idea how to grade this. Well, those three people get A's, but I mean other than that. It's clearly my fault, not theirs, but... so what? What do I do?

Eh. I'm off to figure out how to teach how to, um, "Identify plant structures on which engineering designs may be based" and "Illustrate the design of human and animal bones." They don't really have to draw bones, do they?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

am I the only person who'll admit to watching the new American Gladiators?

I think Wolf has the best hair.

But the events where you have to come face-to-face and get hit by me, YOU DON'T WANT IT.

He should do well against LOLCats.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I think Wolf has the best hair.

I'm a little surprised to find out that the howling is his own invention.

But it's from SkyMall, which subtracts a bit from the coolness....

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would be all over the Gladiators if they were on weekend afternoons like they should be! So far, I've just forgotten to watch.

Here's someone's idea for a new product (AFAIK it hasn't actually been produced): Hotdoll. It's a doggie love doll. For boy doggies.

I'm not sure if the link is worksafe. More likely it's just disturbing....

Whenever I get a Tom Petty song stuck in my head, I just remember some of his appearences on IT'S GARRY SHANDLING'S SHOW and I laugh so hard I forget the earworm. That show needs to be on DVD pronto.

Make the test extra credit, then give another test next week on the same material

Punishingly Intricate

I stayed awake last night thinking about how I could make a dutch baby now that I don't have a cast iron skillet. I have not worked out a solution.
