woohoo!

  1. I'm trying to figure out how to think of 1 page summary papers.

    Professor assigns 3 chapters. Professor then asks for a 1 page summary.

    Does this mean that he thinks there is only 1 page of information to be found? Or is he just being difficult?

  2. I think he's looking for a restatment of the ideas presented so that he might know how you are coming to understand the material.

  3. And also, a test of your concision?

    Would you want to read more than one page of everyone's rehash of the material?

  4. I don't want to read anyone's rehash of the material.

    The papers are two pages. One page is summary. The second page is critique. Then the professor takes all of the papers, puts them into a .zip document, and e-mails it to everyone in the class so we can read them.

    I usually skip the summary and just read the critique. Because I read the material.


    Also, 32 minute que to get on WoW. Oh boy!

  5. Thus calling it a summary. A summary is only a base restatement of the ideas. You don't need any proofs or explanations, just quick overview.

  6. The day has come at last! My question now is, what will Keith Olberman do now? His money maker is leaving the building.

  7. This is the fun of the Schelling Seminar:

    "We are absolute pluralists because we are monists."

  8. kyle, Olbermann will always have Bill-O and Rush. That enough ammo for at least 20min each night.

    Maybe he will go back to reporting the news instead of general ranting

  9. Dude, now he has to rant on the perpetual problems generated by the Bush presidency!

    You know how an old man will order soup, and the soup will be too cold, so he'll send it back and get new soup?

    The old man does not cease his complaining once the warmed replacement soup arrives. The old man incessantly bitches about the cold soup that was!

    Olbermann does not have to cease his complaining about Bush any more than the old man has to shut the fuck up about his cold soup.

  11. I'd start with proving that the class exists.

    If you can't do that? Why bother preparing?

  13. You know in Rome if someone made a mistake during a sacrifice, they'd stop the whole thing and start over. This is pretty serious. Do you remember what happened when Claudius pitched the sacred chickens?


    On an unrelated note, there exists a person named Elisabeth Coetter-Bouttuf.

  14. "It's an open question whether he's president until he takes the proper oath."

    There is a rant to be made of that.
