- Georgie - 04-10-2003 mmm-mmm-mmm! This is delicious ruby port that warms you all the way down and keeps on warming for several minutes. Enjoyed it with a fudgy brownie this evening. Pretty nice treat for a weeknight! ooohweee! and after glass #2, I don't believe I'll be grading any papers tonight!

(and that's all the info you're getting, Bucko! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img]) - winoweenie - 04-11-2003 " And A Star Rises in the East ". Attagirl Lady-G WW [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img] - dananne - 04-11-2003 If your students are anything like mine, they might prefer you graded their papers after glass #2 [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] - Georgie - 04-11-2003 I had an English teacher in HS that we KNOW had a flask in her desk drawer. Seemed appalling at the time...now not such a bad idea, really... - dananne - 04-11-2003 Yeah, we had one in HS, also. Somehow, I don't think he was what inspired me to get into the field of education, however [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/smile.gif[/img] It really is amazing the things that passed for acceptable teacher behavior in the past. Not too long ago, an ashtray on the teacher's desk wouldn't look out of place. I actually interviewed an older, experienced teacher for a position at my school a few years ago who asked me about the school's policy about smoking at school. I couldn't believe the question! There is no policy, as there is no smoking! It makes you wonder about people . . . - Georgie - 04-11-2003 Yes, times have certainly changed. - Bucko - 04-11-2003 Next you're going to tell us that they don't allow sex at school anymore...... [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img] - winoweenie - 04-11-2003 If they don't have a band why would they need a sax player HerrDocktor? WW [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img] - Georgie - 04-11-2003 Where is that Innkeeper? This group has run amok since he's been away! [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/eek.gif[/img] - hotwine - 04-12-2003 Run amok? This bunch? More like SHUFFLE amok. Ran my five miles this morning... - Bucko - 04-12-2003 I ran to my coffee maker...... - Georgie - 04-12-2003 Shuffle amok..that's very funny. Today I dragged my feet to a required five hour CPR/First Aid certification class. My head is spinning. God help anybody who will ever depend on me to save them. I volunteer to be the one who calls 911 and waves the EMT's in. - hotwine - 04-12-2003 Five hours of anything is at least three too many, Georgie. I've only need to give sorta-CPR a couple of times. Good whomps on the chest seemed to work just fine. - Georgie - 04-12-2003 This used to be a 27 hour course! Is it any wonder that I'm confused? Adult, child, infant, choking/conscious, choking unconscious, not breathing with a pulse, not breathing without a pulse, fractures, burns, shock, hypothermia, heat stroke, seizures, poison,...good grief! About the only thing they didn't cover was snake bite! I am now thankfully on my way to a Garden State Philharmonic concert where I intend to sit back and decompress to some lovely music. (and maybe drink a couple of glasses of Port when I get home! I deserve it today! - winoweenie - 04-12-2003 Our schools offer a Phd in snake-bite with tuiton discounts for outta'-staters, WW [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img] - Georgie - 04-12-2003 Thanks,WW, I'll suggest that at the next staff meeting. - Bucko - 04-12-2003 Don't let WW kid you -- the snakes are afraid that he'll bite them...... But then what do I know? I spent the first five years of school in the corner..... - Georgie - 04-13-2003 Oh, I'm sure you were a teacher's dream, Bucko. Maybe more like a nightmare. But to tell you the truth, I'm more partial to those little bad-uns with the fun personalities than to the goody-goods. Somebody with a good sense of humor will do well in life. Of course, you were probably really smart as well as full of hell, am I right? That's the ultimate best combo! [This message has been edited by Georgie (edited 04-13-2003).] |
