| I had a teacher that loves to take questions that he has explained explicitly in class (i.e. the way I have learned them) then place new criteria in them and twist them so far outside of the original problem that they are new questions....

"WTF do you think?") with a stupid grin on my face and get them to laugh. to the cr... |
