Ha! I love your number 100! :) Thanks for participating...and I did learn some things. I didn't know that you've technically been to disney world or in a lightning storm. And I didn't know you were living in Amish county...that makes me wan…
I'm glad you're finding Dickens bearable. I'm surprised at how much I'm enjoying GE, too. Usually it takes me forever to get into his stuff but I'm already more or less hooked. Chapter 10 right now.I was bummed that I missed your call but b…

Wow! Well again how exciting! How nice it is to know where you're going! How prophetic is that Niagara Falls trip! (Okay, not really but that's the first thing I thought of.) Congrats!!! Sounds like it will be fun to be up there... and just…
LOL Mike just likes Crime and Punishment because it was his extemporaneous stump speech in forensics. I did read Moby Dick. I had a kind, hard Amer. Lit. prof who gave us 3-9 pts. of extra credit for reading and submitting summaries of 3 ch…
Yes, but summer is coming, right? yeah, sumer is coming, but I've decided not only to manage the writing center but also teach two brand new classes (new to me) for a different department for next term. So, i'm not going to have much of a s…
