Do I look that dumb?
As everyone and their brother is aware, math textbooks have the odd answers in the back of the book. I don't try and pretend like they aren't there, I just tell the kids things like "I'll know if you know how to work the problems on the quiz/test." Well, in my Algebra 1 class (the one that takes two years to complete) there was a question that could have multiple answers, so obviously the back of the book lists a "sample answer." So I'm grading one of my student's assignment when I get to that question and her answer is "sample answer." You can't help but laugh out loud at this. I couldn't even call her out on it. Larry would have probably called her to the front of the class to explain her answer. I'm beginning to think I need to start a weekly post titled, "you won't believe I heard/saw" or something to that effect. I actually get paid for this entertainment.

I won't touch the original question.
The "sample answer" is classic.
I like the idea of the weekly post. My "Trust Me" idea didn't really last all that long.
Each person needs there own weekly post. That would be amazing.
Of course, if we could get Jeremy to initiate a post, or post a comment longer than 5 words that would be amazing.
Larry's could be titled, "All things kahki." This would consist of theories that make you think, a la, dagger/sword sheath, or why peope cut other people down, or why guys shake the nozzle at the gas pump until the last drop has fallen.
Kevin's could be "Famous people I meet whose dog's have diarhea."
Phil's weekly blog could be titled - "Man Capri's" and would deal with fashion tips to keep us up to speed.
you do look kinda clueless sometimes on the golf course.
How does the shaft like the great white north?
Probably not too much. It hasn't left my car since I've been home. What a disapointing golf year. I played 3 times. On a positive note, all 3 rounds were in AL with you guys!!
