I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Friday, August 8, 2008. The Manifest Destiny Tour - Day 16. 4:48 pm - Los Angeles. I've never really understood our obsession with celebrity. Why do we idolize these people? The answer: celebrity. The comfort of celebrity. Tuesday, August 5, 2008. The Manifest Destiny Tour - Update. Monday, August 4, 2008. The Manifest Destiny Tour - Day 15. Standing on the beach of Playa del Rey near Santa Monica and looking out at the Pacific Ocean, I get that feeling again. San Francisco ...

http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2008_02_01_archive.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Saturday, February 23, 2008. 8220;It’s a generation that’s lacking in decency and honor.”. I’ve been joking around for the past few years that I’m getting old. I could afford to do this because I knew that it wasn’t really true. It’s when I start denying that I’m old, that’s when I’ll know I’m in trouble. Now, I’m not ready to start denying anything yet, but I’m finding recently that my claims of being an old man are less jocular and more credulous. The line between right an...

I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb: July 2008
http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Wednesday, July 30, 2008. The Manifest Destiny Tour - Day 13. While in San Francisco, we’re staying at my friend Lauren’s. She lives on the third floor of a townhouse overlooking Castro Street, the unofficial heart of the gay district. The gay district of San Francisco. I’ve experienced enough world, especially living in Austin, to not be too shocked. Last night, after skirting around the Moby Dick patrons, he muttered something about his concern for our safety. Despite its ...

I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb: So Much for Regular Posting
http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2009/02/so-much-for-regular-posting.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Saturday, February 28, 2009. So Much for Regular Posting. I've been stupid busy with school lately. I probably averaged 14-hour days this past week, mostly reading/grading essays. As if working that much weren't bad enough already, to be reading teenager writing almost non-stop for a week straight will make a person go batty. It just sucks the soul right out of ya. And the worst part is, it's all been in preparation of the TAKS test. Missed you this weekend. El Perro Del Mar.

I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb: September 2008
http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Sunday, September 21, 2008. Mr Heatmiser has been busy corrupting corruptible minds. I hope and plan to eventually resume posting again. In the meantime, here is an update from the front lines. Four weeks in and things really couldn't be going much better. I think maybe I'm starting to get the hang of this teaching thing. Now if only I could figure out how to do it without sacrificing my life away. But the kids have been great, The Crucible. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb: Who do these kids think I am?
http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2009/02/who-do-these-kids-think-i-am.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Tuesday, February 10, 2009. Who do these kids think I am? I wish I could be even half the teacher my students sometimes expect me to be. I mean, some of the crap they expect me to know! Like why Roman numerals are so jacked up. I don't know! Hey that's the same thing that happened to me! However, because I'm awesome, I actually edited the opus and have it ready to give back in the morning. Yeah, that's right, I'm the most awesomest teacher ever! February 11, 2009 at 8:18 PM.

I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb: Mr. Heatmiser is back!!
http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2009/02/mr-heatmiser-is-back.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Thursday, February 5, 2009. Mr Heatmiser is back! Two and a half years into teaching, I've discovered a pattern. First semester=idealistic over-enthusiasm leads to 14-hour days with no time for anything but dreaming up better ways to educate America's youth. Second semester=too over-worked and burned-out to give a shit, leaving plenty of time for goofing off. And more to the point- blogging. So, a resurrection of sorts for Mr. Heatmiser. Bravo for the return of Mr Heatmiser!

I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb: April 2008
http://iteachthereforeiamdumb.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
I Teach, Therefore I am Dumb. Wednesday, April 2, 2008. A Tip of the Slung. I'm sorry this post has been so long in coming (that's what she said), and I apologize in advance that it won't have been worth the wait. Eventually this blog will again supply its readers (all 8 of you) with the anecdotal quality it possessed in its infancy. Until then, read this:. I don’t know how it is in other jobs; I almost can’t remember ever having any other job. I took effective communication for granted. I find that my t...
