Okay guys, class evaluations are coming up. I know you guys are not planning on doing these, so while you are sitting there doing nothing, imagine this: There is a big whit field of snow. The only thing that is peeking out from that snow and two eyes, the eyes of a baby seal. Each day you don't do your evaluations a little snow melts, and soon that baby seal will be exposed for all the hunters to find and club to death. So, every time you don't do that class evaluation, I want you to think of this. Dead. Baby. Seals.

There was an article in the Lorian [school newspaper] a few years ago on Valentine's Day where students sent in which professors they had crushes on, and I was dismayed, not only to find I was on the list, but that next to my name it had in parentheses: "his mind."

At any mention Costner or his movies, this prof launches into the story of how when they were filming Field of Dreams his wife got a tiny role, and Kevin Costner made a pass at her during the 6 takes of filming that scene. He likes to add that when she came home her slovenly husband was sitting in his boxers drinking a beer watching a baseball game. And she went to their room and cried.

When we first got the internet at the high school, I was curious to see how it worked. So I typed in three things on Yahoo search:
1) Hamlet
2) Grateful Dead lyrics
and 3) Naked ladies. And then stuff started popping up! Pop-up! Pop-up! Pop-up!
