I'm tusseling with a touch of a hang over. We went out to a bar and to see a band on the Hudson River.
Good times!

What's everybody got on tap for the weekend?

'morning everyone.

Two seperate things occured in class today that blew my mind.

We were discussing Korean movies and somehow one thing led to another and a girl piped up and said, "Who cares where the movie's from? They all look the same anyway, it's not like anyone can tell what country they come from."

...she was promptly bitchslapped by the rest of the class.

Then someone suggested that "the Jews caused the 9/11 bombing".

...holy mother of... Where do these people come from?

Just because they attend college DOES NOT mean they are educated.

I know, sometimes it just amazes me when people are so forward with their ignorance.

I mean, I can see someone not being able to tell the difference between Eastern people. But you know they look different. You know people can tell them apart. So why would you speak up with a comment like that? :rolleyes:

morning monkeys,

long week so far getting ready for kids to come back, the custodians left my room in a complete clusterfvck! yes slightly cleaner than when I left, but it has taken me an hour and a half just to put equipment and tables back where they belong. I haven't even started putting supplies away:dead:

It is our county park's bike fest this week, and Sunday I am supposed to lead an advanced ride at 11am on some of the trails in my local park including the 3 miles of trail Manhattan and I built. then after that, I have to bolt over and ride another park with the DirtRag crew! I think I am going to be dead!:dead:

Man, you're like 40'ish and you talk like this. Yikes!!

Are you usually like this or are you rebelling against the situation you're in with your X?

you young-en's
We were out at the bars last night and I realized then that I'm getting old. I also realized that women are wearing less and less clothes.

Lotsa levels there.

Part of it's structural in the way we process information. The first time you look at turtles, bicycles or rocks, it's hard to distinguish between different specimens. If you grow up in a community with a fairly uniform physiognomy, the first time you see a set of people with different average facial structure, you in fact percieve them alike until you learn to distinguish.

Speaking up? Better one should speak up and learn than to remain silent and ignorant.

well put. It isn't the ignorant we have to really worry about (they can be educated) it is those in the know that still make inflamatory comments, that we must (find and kill) worry about!

Morning! Not a whole lot here. My house is all framed out and it's supposed to be 95 and sunny all weekend! :weee: Tonight probably going out for a drink after work to celebrate my idiot of a coworker leaving... that was a blessing to find out this week! She defines obnoxious.

Stosh, I agree... girls need to start putting on some damn clothes. I saw a girl walking around bv's campus last week that looked like she just got off a pole. I think 'classy' is not a word people understand anymore.

Greyhound: Do you say "do what?" Just curious. One of those southern things that drives me more and more crazy by the minute, probably because the aforementioned stupid coworker says it, and with a redneckish twang.

Have a good weekend, everyone! :)
