Good afternoon to myself and all others who may stumble across this insignificant peice of wordplay.  Class is beginning to feel more and more frustrating.  I don't know whether its my age or just because it's nearing the end of the year, but I am definately ready for the surreal and sedative respose of summer.  I admitted to my class that more than likely I will only continue to catechize for 5 or 6 more years.  I found myself in my past and being acrid about situations that don't go as I wished they had this year, for example my overhead projector refuses to accede with me.  I ordered a new one at the beginning of the year and it was supposed to arrive in january, but I postulate that won't happen.  Have a good day, and maybe tommorow pick up the newspaper as opposed to turning on the television.

Well lets try this new median again.  I posted grades for students today and had very few questions about them.  I don't, however, think my students grasp the concept of hollywood and big buisiness being revolutionized and transformed at that time to what it is today.  I lecture on the revolution of the radio and the first variations of automobiles and all I recieve in return is bland and placid faces mixed in with the occasional sleeper.  I wish my students would grasp the gigantic reprecussions this time period has on our  lives today.

Good evening, Dr. Burks informed the faculty through e-mail that Xanga was a great place to inform and update our student community of our lives outside the classroom, and lead good discussions, I will post more later, but I need to grade some tests.  Good Night.
