keychainfroggy: July 2009
http://keychainfroggy.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Just me and my frog. Thursday, July 30, 2009. It was an argument by analogy. Analogy! I'm here again with tales of students. This one isn't so much frustrating as funny. Very funny. So funny that it makes me giggle just thinking of it. Because I am a bad person. Early in the essay, however, they also included this paragraph:. The essay then went on to suggest that students want a similar relationship with the university that we want with our bank. My student read that to mean that students want the s...

keychainfroggy: Seriously - they can't READ?
http://keychainfroggy.blogspot.com/2009/08/seriously-they-cant-read.html
Just me and my frog. Tuesday, August 25, 2009. Seriously - they can't READ? On Sunday, I sent them an email with the syllabus attached, as well as the readings for Wednesday and Friday. Labeled. With dates. Yet still, 13 bright little sparks want to know if they're supposed to read anything for tomorrow. It's going to be a long semester. Oh, you mean the assignment listed on the syllabus is the assignment due for that day of class? August 28, 2009 at 4:37 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

keychainfroggy: April 2009
http://keychainfroggy.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Just me and my frog. Sunday, April 26, 2009. Last week, I spent the better part of an afternoon lovingly cleaning every nook and cranny of my refrigerator. I removed shelves, soaked them in an aromatic bath, wiped them clean, dried them, and reassembled the interior of the machine. I changed the shelf configuration from the factory presets to one that would better serve our needs. I worked hard. Yesterday, the damn thing broke. Tuesday, April 14, 2009. First, Rachel Maddow is awesome.

Fish-->Frog-->Monkey-->Man: November 2005
http://fishfrogmonkeyman.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Fish- Frog- Monkey- Man. To Protect and Serve. Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Clearing up some misconceptions. I was cruising around the blogosphere earlier today and stumbled across a proponent of Intelligent Design. During the course of his attack on evolution, he averred that the Second Law of Thermodynamics was proof positive that the theory of evolution was false. So what is the second law? I sure as hell didn't know. I'm a Classics major and a law student, not a physicist! Says William Andrews in.

keychainfroggy: Where's My Sherpa?
http://keychainfroggy.blogspot.com/2009/10/wheres-my-sherpa.html
Just me and my frog. Monday, October 5, 2009. I have conquered the laundry. Leo has socks (matched! And underwear and t-shirts all neatly arranged in his clothing area. I have sorted all my clothes into "fits" and "maybe sometime this will fit again" piles, and am about to move my clothing bins downstairs, as part of the great "let's not carry the baby up the steep, narrow, treacherous stairs" gradual migration down to the first floor bedroom.

keychainfroggy: October 2008
http://keychainfroggy.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Just me and my frog. Sunday, October 12, 2008. To everyone I know that has a blog:. I've been getting too much work done, which means that you're not doing your jobs. I want distraction - at half-hour intervals, and in five minute bites. Coordinate that amongst yourselves, but make sure that you've got it covered, and don't think that you get to take the weekends off. I ESPECIALLY need amusing on weekends. Thank you; that is all.

Washrambler: Genetics Sunday
http://washrambler.blogspot.com/2006/01/genetics-sunday.html
Desultory Rants from the Mind of Y. Sunday, January 29, 2006. Japanese scientists have recently discovered that a single unit of DNA determines whether an individual has either dry ear wax or wet. When I read this article, I was at a loss because I had naturally assumed that everyone had dry ear wax. Apparently, East Asians almost universally have dry ear wax while those of European and African descent have wet ear wax. My question is: do you guys of European or African descent all have wet ear wax?

Washrambler: Six Degrees of Fanning (Toshiro Mifune)
http://washrambler.blogspot.com/2006/02/six-degrees-of-fanning-toshiro-mifune.html
Desultory Rants from the Mind of Y. Tuesday, February 07, 2006. Six Degrees of Fanning (Toshiro Mifune). Ted proposed a challenge today: Whether we could connect a guy in Seven Samurai to Dakota Fanning. After two hours, we came with this solution. Toshiro Mifune - Charles Bronson (Red Sun). Charles Bronson - Yul Brynner (Magnificient Seven). Yul Brynner - Charlton Heston (10 Commandments). Charlton Heston - Mike Myers (Wayne's World 2). Mike Myers - Dakota Fanning (Cat in the Hat).
