Interesting Articles...

As I'm going through today's New York Times, I found two interesting Op-Ed pieces.

The first is in regards to John McCain and what has happened to him over the past year. Ironically I liked the guy back in 2000 because he did go against the Republican grain. This piece describes what happened to him and how he was transformed into a Bushie.

The second is a piece about the legacy of Bush and who you should vote for (without naming names). The last paragraph is my favorite part:

Vote for the candidate you think has the smarts, temperament and inspirational capacity to unify the country and steer our ship through what could be the rockiest shoals our generation has ever known. Your kids will thank you.

Remember to vote on Tuesday!

Not a Morning Person

I would never call myself a "morning person."  Don't get me wrong.  I tend to function the best in the morning in that I am much more productive at that time of day.  However, I think that is because by the end of the day I am so damn tired regardless of what I do. Years ago when I first started teaching, I was always given 8am classes.  Why?  Because no full-timer in their right mind is willing to teach that early.  The best and brightest students go for the post-9:30am classes.  This means, the 8am classes are the last to fill and the students who do fill it are the least motivated ones out there.  Namely, they were too lazy to register in advance which means they got stuck with the only class still open: the 8am one.  Even when I was a student I avoided that time slot like the plague.  However, my Russian classes were only held at that time and it was a three day a week class.  8am on a Friday is just pure evil.  An 8am Ru...
