Mal ,'Objects In Space'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I recall one prof in undergrad that had his book assigned every class every semester, and damn if he didn't do updates to the thing every other year or so, so you HAD to buy it again (I didn't. It was my minor, not major. Plus, he annoyed me, so why should I fund his boat?)
I once had to buy a book for a class taught by the book's author. What were we reading? The introduction. His excuse was that his book was used in other classes, so you'd have to buy it eventually.
he ... our publications person was out last week and someone wanted to buy a special set of two compilations of short publications in electronic format; the description specifically says that the files are on CDs. It took some working out because they wanted to be invoiced for it. So I worked it out, sent them a PDF of the invoice, and a note that I'd be sending them the info. About 15 minutes later I got another e-mail saying they were looking for their downloads and where were they - they wanted them right now.
oh my ... I'm joining in the Keith Olbermann love, although I can only see him on the internets. This includes a Monty Python shout-out.
Keith loves Python in an unholy fashion. It's not every man who can quote Churchill and Ted Baxter and still sound natural, either. P.S. Check out the Special Comments.
erika, I saw that Ted Baxter/BO'R thing last night and it cracked me up!
Dear Fever,
Please go away. You're making it difficult to teach.
No love,

Dear suspicious package downstairs:
Thank you for not being a bomb.
Love, me
...and Toddson puts my woes in perspective. Wow. Very glad it wasn't a bomb.
Mom, too, Cashmere. But then, she's biased. She thinks I'm as smart as Rachel.
no - the chances of it being a bomb were minimal - I was inconvenienced by not being able to go out (I brought my lunch - yay!). Your actual problems are somewhat worse than my hypothetically possible problem. (may the fever and the heat diminish and the teaching become easier)
