Scenario One:

18C-Lit. Class. On the docket, Samuel Butler's "Hudibras." A student, perhaps the keenest of a bunch who are all as keen as a...big...keen...thing, bounces into the room at the top of the hour.

But I do live by the beach, so I think that karma would call all of that a wash ...

Love to you, the BH and HA!

I love life in Shamelaland... let me know when the Shammyland resort and conference center is built so I can make reservations there.... the H.A. will be appearing live on stage right?
Your students are so much smarter than mine. Oh, and I think I have a friend who is dying to work at your school... I'm supposed to tell you he's "one of us" so that if you have any influence you can bribe the right people... :)
Oh, and I'm definitely old enough to know that it is time to dance. Viva Dieter!

I'll just bet you that your friend is not dying to work at MY school, but rather, the exclusive, heavily-funded, well-known liberal-arts college across town. If it starts with "Wh" it's that one. If it starts with "Wa" it's mine, and I will die of surprise, and you must email me details!

Touch my monkey...TOUCH. IT.

I think I will hold off on the monkey touching for now.... maybe later..
and you're right.. it is the WH.. I just heard Walla squared and thought... hey... but should he manage to get a job there at least I can tell him that other cool people live there. :)
