Trouble is..the sharks would probably spit out his Army hide. Too sour for
their tastes.

Yeah. I'd toss John to the sharks. He seems to have fewer and fewer
redeeming qualities.

Does John actually teach? I know he's mentioned he subs in the
Alexandria school system, but my recollection is that he has posted
that
he mainly babysits high school kids, and doesn't teach. Or was it

that
he tries to teach some math classes if he is assigned one, but

doesn't
try to teach if he is assigned to a non-math class.

I have no idea. Is John lying? Do we need an independent inquiry? :-)


I'm not sure anything about John passes the WGAS test.

Oh come on....he's way better than NOYB. Think of it this way (a

strawman -
get ready): Let's say all four of us were at the seaquarium in

Baltimore,
drunk as skunks, and you wanted my help throwing either JohnH or NOYB

into a
tank full of sharks, just for grins. You can only pick one: Which would

you
feed to the sharks?




Ahhh. This is sort of a Hobson's choice, eh?

I'm pretty much convinced I'd have a great time out fishing with NOYBby,
and even arguing politics with him without either of us taking it so
seriously that we'd sink to John's level. Besides, NOYBby is pretty much
without pretense in his beliefs, and repugnant as I find many of those
beliefs, I think he is intellectually honest about his thoughts and
feelings. And, of course, NOYBby is young and there is hope he'll see
some light.

Ker-ripes...did I just write that?

Yeah. I'd toss John to the sharks. He seems to have fewer and fewer
redeeming qualities.


Are we talking about the same people? I'd hurl NOYB into the tank. Not only
that, I'd even tie nice napkins around the sharks' necks first, and provide
elegant, floating candles for the meal.

If Dave Hall was with us, I'd offer him as an appetizer. He's kind of a
lightweight. :-)


Dave Hall is nothing more than chum. Unless you're looking for a cheap
thrill, there's no need to read his mindless drivel on why he can
violate all the rules of neighborliness.

I realy think NOYBby is more fun. Besides, he seems to take himself a
lot less seriously than John. John, after all, is a retired military
puke, and the only people in the country who take military pukes
seriously are...other military pukes. It takes some brainpower and skill
to beome a dentist. I think.

I think that would be when a third party owes a debt to you.
That would be an asset and some companies do sell the 'note' to another
party for immediate cash.
Then again... the crazy Americans do things differently...so my thinking may
not match what happens south of the border.

Maybe it's an asset in some companies because you can sell the debt to
another firm and MAKE money on it. Like mortgages. :-)

Trying to stifle dissent, are you?

Actually, IMHO John and NOBBY both stand head and shoulders above the
rest of the no-boating-content insult-hurling Harry-Krause-obsessed
BushCo cheerleaders. In fact they sometimes seem too smart for all that
crapola, NOBBY is secretly a liberal who has signed up as a double agent
to make neoconservatives look even worse. But if you need a quick
judgement call, NOBBY is much more of a knee-jerk fascist than John H.

We bottle water and call it beer. It's a huge industry here. :-) Luckily,
where I live, Molson is cheaper than the domestic tripe. Even better: I've
come back from Canada several times with WAY more beer than we're supposed
to have. In all instances, I've been honest with the customs guys, and they
always just wave me through. Beer is the common denominator of international
understanding.

Hee, hee! Yup. I took only one course. That was enough. I could never
figure out how if you owed someone money that was an asset. I thought
the whole course was backwards.

As a matter of fact, the 25th Infantry Division had an education
center at Cu Chi. I signed up for an accounting course, taught by an
Army officer! I was able to attend only about three classes over the
three month period (once a week night classes), so maybe I missed out
on some helpful stuff. In any case, I somehow passed the final exam,
which obviously couldn't have been too difficult.

See! It's that kind of talk I'm talking about. Ridiculous stuff. I'll
stick with algebra.

Look at what you started, Doug. For shame. I guess it's some kind of
feather in my cap if Harry would throw me to the sharks. That tank in
the Baltimore aquarium has a bunch of 'em, too.

When I'm subbing math, I teach the lesson planned for the day. When
subbing other subjects, I don't teach unless it happens to be a lesson
with which I'm familiar.

Normally I coordinate with teachers beforehand to determine what I'm
going to do. I want more movies!

If they're 8th grade or higher, get the movie "A Bronx Tale". Loaded with
the F-word, but the story (and the lesson of the story) are pretty terrific.


Unlike CBS, we can't do F-word stuff -- yet. My favorite is "Donald
Duck in Math Magic Land." I've seen a couple dozen times, and learn
something from it each time. It's a beautiful math movie.

I'm just a whole bunch of fun today. Consider yourself lucky. My boss is
ready to have a stroke because of me today. His 25 yr old son decided to
"help" by making some adjustments to our network. Now, the company's email
is down, as well as a host of other network functions which are crucial to
the business. I told him I'll continue to refer to his son as "the child"
until everything works again. I'm having a ball.
