  Some reading for the geeks
This link isn't for everyone. It's a discourse on language. Foul language, to be exact. And I mean foul, so if you don't care to read those words over and over again, don't go there. From an English-geek perspective, though, it's interesting. As a matter of fact, if you find yourself pondering this silly jumble of words we use, all of Linguistics Gone Wild is a pretty good site to read.
My grammar's still terrible, but it's a fun read.

Dean Dad, of Confessions of a Community College Dean, has a great story on dumb things tenured staff have done. I know there's some of this type at Murray, though I'm naming no names.
If you're looking to teach Higher Ed, his advice seems pretty sound too.
Not that I would know, yet. But I'd like to someday.
It took me a while to find bloggers trackback links. by default, they're the little "#" beside "add a comment." Since my comments bar is a little script, I don't have one right now. So I'm going to tweak the template and make it so there's trackback links in each title.
I also found this really cool "who's linking me" tracker yesterday, but I've lost the link to it. If I find it I'll tell you.
 
Welcome to the vacuum in which my various thoughts emerge, fight, and ultimately sink once more into obscurity.
