How's Your Day? Archives

Nothing like tackling an impossible virus in a kindergarten room full of singing kids to start your day! :mad:

 

Sometimes it takes me a little while to understand the plain meaning of written statements:

For example, I had this mental picture of Micah EITHER tackling a man sized virus in front of a classroom full of formerly singing, currently screaming kindergarteners OR running around this room, with a pump bottle of anti-baterial gell and a box full of tissues, exhorting the wee kiddies to "blow their noses and clean their hands" while they gleefully ignored him and plastered him with their virus laden flith.

And then I realized he was talking about COMPUTER viruses. Good luck, Micah.

 

Huh.... I took it yet another way... I thought he had a really bad headache due to the virus and the singing kids were like a ball peen hammer to the noggin.

 

oh yeah, I think your interpretation makes more sense than either of mine. I still wanna see the Micah v. Virus wrestling match, though. I'd even spring for pay-per-view.

 

I now recall a time when one of the tech department was working on replacing the internet cables (upgrading to cat 5e as I recall) in one of the downstairs, poorly ventilated, and extremely overheated science rooms, while I was leading the class in a frog dissection (including live video on the big screen right in front of the tech person). I don't think he was very happy either... :sick007

 

Does this avatar make me look fat?

 

Somebody tell me this fearmongering.

I don't care if you have to lie to me. Just tell me it's fear-mongering.

 

fear-mongering... besides nothing government run happens without so many exceptions, loopholes and red-tape as to make it useless let alone guarantee that everyone must be enrolled in the program.

 

I don't have to lie- it's fear mongering. A textbook example, in fact. Why do I say that?

Because it starts with (paraphrase) "nobody knows what's in the health bill." And then comes an all important word: "BUT"
And then, the article goes on with a lot of blather.

The health reform stuff makes me very nervous. I can't change what's been done, so I have to find a way to make peace with it. So I'll stick with what I know, which is that nobody really knows what they just passed. And as best as I can tell, anyone who says different is lying.

 

It makes me nervous as well. Being in education, I am constantly painted into corners by politicians who know nothing about the educational process passing laws to "improve" a system that they don't understand.

However, I am currently taking it for granted that everything I hear out of both sides is a good heaping of fear mongering and propaganda. There maybe a tiny grain of truth in there, but it is far too early to decipher what that truth may be and the tiny grain gets reshaped with every rider strapped onto the bill, so it won't make any sense until the process is complete and too late.

In 5 billions years (give or take several hundred million) the earth will be destroyed by the sun. If we haven't poisoned the planet and ourselves out of existence by then, none of this will matter.
