What I did on my
Not Updating the Site Vacation
January 30
Yeah, I was sort of
waiting for a few things to happen before I updated the
site, and one of them just occurred. So here we
go.
For the first
quarter of the school year, the clock in my history
class didn't work. Then, in another period, a student
remarked how he wished someone would fix it.
Immediately, someone knocked on the door and announced
that he was there to repair the clock. Upon
hearing this, I commented out loud that it sure would be
nice if someone brought us pudding. Just then
someone knocked on the door. It wasn't pudding of
course, but from then on we always asked people knocking
off the door if they brought pudding.
So, what's a man
with a classroom full of people saying
"Pudding?" every time someone opens the door
and a friend that has that period off to do? Why,
have that friend come unannounced and start handed out pudding cups to everyone,
that's what.
It was a grand thing
indeed.
Wah-ooooh

I went a couple
of years before I found out that my keyboard had
a name. I guess I don't regard keyboards as a
unique entity capable of having a distinct name and
ignored it despite the fact that it's written very
clearly at the top left hand corner.
It called the
"DELL QuietKey." The truth is that this
name is a criminally inappropriate one as the keyboard
is one of the noisiest I've ever operated.
However, the truth is that I like noisy keyboards.
The feedback one gets from using them is preferable to
those mushy, silent ones usually found on laptops.
There might be a
moral to this story, truth in advertising laws are
useless and unneeded for example, but I'm just glad to
have a good keyboard.
That's good stuff

Dear They,
I know it's usually
not actual people's place to question your decisions,
but I feel I should make a petition on behalf of my age
group. If you could find it in your figurative
heart to name the generation proceeding Generation X
something other than Generation Y, I would me most
appreciative. Anything other that Y would be just
great.
Sincerely,
The person writing
you this letter
Everything must
