And we will do so with a song on our lips and dancing feet. Our prosecution of these monsters will be swift but fair. The truth will burn the wicked.

Tonight I had a hankering for chicken and dumplings. Nailed it! Even better than my mom's.

Just checking to see if my phone is properly synced up to my new Bluetooth keyboard. Hot Damn! Now I can make snide remarks twice as fast. No more arthritic thumbs tripping over each other.

Really painful when you teach American History from 1877 to the present, and you realize you lived through almost half of it.

I am betting on Bronze Age collapse, but it still could represent the Neo-Assyrians.

My husband had half of his scalp shaved for surgery to remove two tumors, and he didn't mind looking like a character out of Stephen Cranes "Red Badge of Courage." But when his hair fell out b/c of radiation therapy, he freaked out. Now his hair is back, but curly. Congrats on your regrowth l.

I lost a dog who broke out and ran after another dog, but was hit by a car. I opted for combined cremation because he wanted to be with other dogs.

Universities never seem to have sufficient administrators and vice presidents of such and such and so they are willing to pay top dollar. Don't get me started on the football staff.

Professor, I want to make sure you know that you and I share the same opinion about crypto. My remark was aimed at the Farage statement about the billionaires expecting nothing in return for their investments (bribes).

The passive voice at work. It removes the blame. It works for car accidents and Civil Rights protests, among other things. Calling it the exonerative tense makes beautiful sense. Keep up the good work.

I reached a weird milestone today: the remaining mortgage on my home is less than my remaining student loans. Mathematically, the mortgage keeps going down because of the large payments. But because my student loan repayments are thankfully relatively small, the amount keeps going up.

How to use AI in my class: look for suggestions for spelling and grammar of work you have already written yourself. Otherwise, no.

This is normalization: anything that isn't exactly like your group is abnormal and consequently wrong.

If you want to see the true impact of data centers, drive north on Highway 28 between I-66 and Highway 7 in Northern Virginia.You drive past Dulles Airport. However, what used to be farmland and open space is now crammed full of data centers. If you knew the area before, now it's unrecognizable.

The confidence of a great painter astounds me. I have some lithographs of watercolors by William Russell Flint, and the surety of his brush strokes makes them look like oil paintings. No do overs.

My good friend's mother made wedding cakes to make ends meet. To make the cakes level, she had to trim lots of cake before putting on the frosting. They toasted the trimming s with butter, and that was breakfast some mornings. He hated cake

Although, in a serious case, you might want to try Merle Haggard's "the stuff." His wife used to make it before recording sessions: maple syrup, lemon juice, and Tabasco sauce. Legendary.

I would love to hear your beginnings of archaeology class. Tonight my students hear about Mesopotamia and Egypt. More importantly, they are assigned to watch your End of the Bronze Age lecture this week.

Because of cancer, my husband currently must use a wheelchair. The twelve steps from our front door to the street keep him prisoner. A trip to the doctor is a $300 cost just for the labor and transport. He sees himself as useless and a drain because that was the message inculcated by society.

How to adjunct: Thursday evening you are told that one of your classes is being given to a full timer. Friday morning you are given a class at a different campus, but taught on Zoom. Friday afternoon you find out the textbook is not in stock. The class starts Monday. Yes, the answer is always yes.

Maybe they could visit some museums, or better yet, the National Archives so they can learn why their presence in D. C. Is so wrong.

Nah, I can’t be convinced this was death by suicide. Black people do not lynch themselves from trees, and the fact that these cases have been dismissed so quickly without thorough investigation is telling.
