How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

Gah. That's awful. I'm glad he's home and mostly better, though.

Trudy, that's great news about A! The coming home, not the coughing, 'cuz, owie. Sorry you've got the icks. Tummy~ma!

IOmeN, I had an interview today for a job that isn't. Ah, well. At least they called me in so they could get a better handle on if my skills would be useful when something does open up.

Is it mean for me to respond to a (potential) student "No, I will not send an application because can't follow directions, and are clearly too stupid to go to college"

Student emails me, asks me for an app. I say sure, please send me your address and the name and address of your high school. The response? No shit, verbatim:

621 Ema Street

Lakeland Highschool
726 Hollingsworth Road

NO CITY OR STATE!! How does this child think that I am going to get her this information!!!

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Trudy, what wonderful news about A!

Groovy, another product of the fine, fine Florida public high school system.

I'd write the school and berate them for not teaching kids the basics.

ETA: Vortex, she can't even spell her own home address correctly-- it's probably Emma Street

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

No. But then, I've been wanting to say the same thing to tenured faculty all day.

On behalf of the teaching force in this fine, fine state, I apologize. I do what I can but there are more idiots than there are people to help them.

S'okay, sweetie-- only so many idiots you should be expected to cope with and considering you have to start with DD, that's worth at least a dozen clueless students.

Got caught up (thank you, threadsuck!), and wanted to respond to Andi:

So, hivemind... anyone remember that ep. of Good Eats where Alton goes after oatmeal? Remember how long and how hot an oven he said for toasting steel cut oats to cut later cooking time? I tried the Food Network site, and got no joy.

Here's the transcript for the oatmeal episode.

The Good Eats Fanpage has just about all the info on the show you'll ever need.

sadly, Barb was right. When she emailed me back, she corrected the spelling to "Emma" Street.

I wonder if I can write on the app with special marker, a big 'NO' that flouresces when it gets to the admissions office.
