Internet is here and to be had.
No, I have not had a decent internet connection for over two months now.
Yes, I'm in China.
Yes, I've been up all night for no apparent reason, so I'm heading to bed nowish.
Yes, more extensive update shall be appearing soonish...
One quick question to my JMU Alum buddies: I don't remember if it was one of y'all, but I'm pretty sure it was a then-fellow JMU buddy...but someone a looong time ago Freshman year linked me this well-written, serious, yet slightly tongue-in-cheek "Survival Guide to College". My students from fall semester are about to embark on their first semester in college, so I thought I would send them the link. But lo, though I have searched far and wide in the digital lands, my attempts have gathered no fruits of substantial worth...while I have come across several "HOW TO SURVIVE TEH COLLEGES" pages, none were quite as good or fitting as the one I read back in 2004.
If anyone remembers what I'm talking about, do you happen to remember the web link, or be able to ask around/find it again?
Specifically, I remember the ending stating something along the lines of "Also, you're grown-up now. Eat dessert first."
