Quick Report
I’m exhausted and falling asleep at the keyboard but I wanted to make a quick note. It seems like nobody in my sociology class is equipped for normal adult debate. I’m not talking about debate team type debate, just having simple discussions in class. Today one student and I – he’s also an older student … Continue reading
History Hysteria
Today I got attacked by a kid in my history class. We were discussing the book City of Quartz, and I said that I felt it was too prescriptive to be a history book. That is, things like calling the LAPD “Nazi stormtroopers” and the streets of Compton “rice paddies” is feeding the reader opinions … Continue reading

The reason I can’t remember is I’m not on my normal computer operating system. raisinbottom emailed me today with questions about Ubuntu, and he mentioned Wubi, so I got all hyped up and spent the evening fighting with it. Again. … Continue reading
My Classes

I think this is his first year without an interpreter, and his signing is pretty slow and he makes lots of mistakes, but he’s trying. There are only … Continue reading
