“Not dead yet!”

Tom, have you tried Territory Ahead or The Sundance catalogs? They might have similar offerings.

“Not dead yet!”

Barb, Thank you! I posted a post in Beep Me, but thank you so very much for the books. It's amazingly generous of you.

My pleasure, Kat-- having done the teaching thing myself and not having the fortitude or patience to deal with the red tapes of administration and craxy parents, I still try my best to give back to the ed community. Especially when it comes to books.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Kat, what books do you still need?

The Grilled Cheese Chronicles: day 3

Today's lesson: Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.

I forgot my lesson about removing the paper from between the slices again!

This time I smeared some spicy brown mustard on the inside of both bread slices. It was a good idea!

That is all, please resume your normal nattering.

from way back

you mean pro-life

yes, I meant pro-life.

I was hearing clips of the debate again today and who the hell does McCain have in mind when he is saying "pro-abortionists"? Who is actually going around trying to get abortion numbers up? freak.

ION - I did not punch anyone on the subway today, but I did come very close to calling an overseas colleague a stupid fuck. I could use more sleep and the election cannot come soon enough.

I like the coat, Tom, but have no idea where you'd get one like it. REI?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I am, sorry.

There was almost a fight on my subway tonight. Oh! And apparently there was a shootout right near where I go by last night! (I go through an elevated station, and apparently it was on the street.)

Edit: Pfft. My worker led me astray. It was actually blocks and blocks from where I go. QueensBRIDGE, not QueensBORO. [link]

hwæt

Territory Ahead or The Sundance catalogs?

Nope.

REI?

Nope. REI is all about the synthetics.

I found this, though. I'll go to the store and take a look.

yeah I was on a train about 15 min after the 21st/Queensbridge incident and we were bypassing that station, but then we stopped at the station just with the doors closed and I was all "Hello, there was an incident here, let's keep it moving, no need for stray gunfire to hit us too."

Seriously.
