i gottsa b in art history. :D

this professor is reputed for being a hard teacher. he was actually put on probation for failing
a lot of his students last semester. the problem is that this class is a 1000 level course which means
that it's a beginner's level.

Oh!
I just learned that Tinky's a Moderator!
Congratulations! :D
Very well deserved, in my humble opinion.

I've always thought that your posts are cheerful, funny, thoughtful and positive.
It's nice to know that I'm not the only one who has noticed.

^ :lol:
Tell bob the llama thank-you for the peanut and his generosity! :D


I learned today that if you climb a mountain on impulse,
you should really take some water, your camera, your mobile phone and your hat!
That's the problem with being impulsive, though.
You can't plan for it. :?


I also learned on the radio that the leaders at the Copenhagen Global Warming Summit
are looking at an idea by a 15 y.o. schoolboy to run street-lights on the energy generated
by cars driving over speed-bumps.

I would have thought they have slightly more important problems to consider... :roll:

I learned that a celebrity is human mabeing! ok, not really...

I just met a famous person today for the first time and didn't even recognize him at first.
Jason Lee(look 'im up) went to the Aquarium of the Americas today(i volunteer there).
I showed him how to touch a baby shark and everything.
Now the next time I see a celebrity type I won't really care because the excitement is gone.
