Good luck with the community garden stuff, Spidra. It sounds like a fantastic project.
Up until the punching, it was a real nice party.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Spidra, your efforts on behalf of community gardening for your city are excellent. You should be proud of yourself. And I like to think, when it gets quiet here after board-time midnight, that it just might mean that the insomnia fairy has left a lot of people alone. And if the Western Hemisphere Insomniac contingent are quiet, then the Eastern Hemisphere people have nobody to play with but themselves. Errr, each other.... Errr... You know what I mean.

I'm always around here after 2am-ish board time. I don't always say much 'cause it's mainly just me!
In 'Naomi really will get a good PA team together one day soon' news, I interviewed for the second post yesterday and might recruit a PhD student from the more prestigious uni in the area (mine being the less prestigious one!). She answered an interview question with a Foucault reference. It's hard to say no to that. Also there was only one other candidate. So here's hoping. (First PA continues to be efficient and lovely.)
I am reading about the origin of the synoptic gospels and trying not to fall asleep. I'm sure this has something to do with my research. I'm not sure what.

I think if that happened during an attendant interview I was part of, it would make services a moot point because the shock would kill me. I loved watching KO get all impressed by Sexy Violinist and her...instrument. I don't know why I love seeing his inner fanboy so much, but sometimes it's so much easier to get next to than his Outer Cornell. He was seriously awed by that Strativarius and by the fact that, when she touched it, beautiful sounds came out...in a tiny way, it reminded me of when Cronkite did a rocket story and said "Golly!"(Which he thought sounded stupid, but was honest human emotion, imo.)

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I have two students who missed a quiz without giving me advance notice. My general rule is no makeup quizzes unless you've told me about your absence ahead of time and I've OKed it. Each of these two asked me if they could take a makeup. The quiz was on Monday, and I had OKed both of them to miss the previous Friday because they were sick, so I said OK, and we scheduled a time for them to come to my office to take the quiz. Neither one showed up.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
There are stencils out there if you google. I just looked at an example and freehanded it - it was easier than I thought.

Sucks to be them, pity about the grade.

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?
Neither one showed up.

Seriously. Sounds like two zeroes to me.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir
Neither one showed up.I agree. Two no-shows, TWICE! Sounds like two zeros to me. When I was a guest instructor, I had 8 classes to teach all of audio for theater AND get them "designing" a scene, including editing of sound cues. Talk about 0-100mph in 10 seconds! So I put forth that there might be pop quizzes at random. Short things that count as 100% of your daily participation grade for the day. When the class was half empty (Monday morning)... Pop Quiz time! dudes, suck it up. I commuted 2 hours to get there by 9am. You can walk across campus to meet me there. Yes, I can be mean.
