This is following Guamo's and Joel's lists. And, yes, I did just finish a bottle of wine, and yes, it was less than $5.00, and yes, I do have a test to write and quiz to take for my Cicero class--so, get out of my fricking grill. Only God can judge me...and he will...harshly.

3 helpful remarks:
dividing Thomas Jefferson into good and evil halfs is a nice touch. Wish I would have thought of that. Looks like drunk Lind is still a force to be contended with

PS, how did the test and quiz for your Cicero class go? I've been curious.

I wrote the test for my own students, who didn't do horribly, but also didn't do excellently--C's were abundant. I haven't gotten my quiz back, but I don't anticipate a very high grade. On a more positive note, my Latin IA students did an excellent job on the National Latin Exam, which always makes me feel good.
