Sorry for that, brenda. Some things are hard to unremember.
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Um, I meant the cerebrospinal fluid happening to George Clooney.
I'm sure he's male.
He'd better be.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

The following concept eluded two of my students today:
Project due today. Asking to do project Monday=Late work=50% reduction in grade. They were surprised even though this has been my policy all year.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Thanks a hell of a lot for that, meara.
Seriously.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I knew exactly what Burrell whitefonted too. ::shiver::
I have done a number of unsafe things in my life (usually involving wandering off with strange men), but the worst that ever turned out was when we were abandoned in a strange guy's house and felt guilty leaving until they got back. Crazy.
Got my new computer! Named her Martha. Am desperately in love. But I'm sad to be putting Cass (no Buffista diss intended) out of commission.

Only two, ChiKat?
My deal is it's due at the beginning of class. The end. No late work accepted. I still have kids who are like, "can I turn it in Monday?"
Sure you can. For no credit and I won't grade it, but I might correct it.
Also, you need this class to graduate as you are 12th graders and this is your LAST CHANCE to pass English.
Gr. ARgh.

Surprisingly, yes. All my students know late work is 50% off. It's not a big surprise. I teach 8th grade, so I do allow late work, but it will get graded down.
Most of the work we do in class. If they aren't ready, they are slackers.

Not just women, apparently.
