Wow, that's a great price for five bedrooms.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Now I'm yearning for the bathtub of my youth. We only had one tiny bathroom and no shower. But I would kill to have that clawfoot tub back. *sigh*

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
That house must need a lot of work. I think that is really cheap for Tarrytown.

If I were doing more than window-shopping I'd be concerned with the phrase "some plumbing has been updated," but since I'm not in a position to move, I'll let it go.

It was the only possible answer to someone's homework assignment to find a word that rhymes with sprinkle. Good times, good times.
Heh. I still don't understand Sophia's post, though.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My current apartment has my best bathtub ever. Not a clawfoot, but a big metal tub - I can now stretch out my legs completely (while sitting upright) in a tub for the first time since I was a child.

I suppose that's better than 'some plumbing has been "updated",'

Sounds better than, "hope you have a plumber in the family."

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I admit, I'm not a neurotypical student and a lack of clear expectations ahead of time screws me up big time.
Fuck, yeah. Me too. So my reaction is total sympathy for the kid.
My concept of pedagogy is biased by my not being a parent or a teacher. I know this. But I also agree with the non-violent part of SH's post. Is humiliating a kid to make a point to the entire class about something as bullshit as text-speak really worth it?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Sorry, I'm not allowed to look at that kind of House porn at work!
And here I thought the Brit's would be more open about that kind of thing. Crazy Brits.

Speaking personally, as a future teacher and not my sister, if it's something that distracts the kid from learning what they are supposed to be learning, then I say, sometimes. It should be used sparingly and only in situations where the teacher really knows her kids and knows how the kid in particular would handle it.
