Because if you’re not, I’ll guarentee you couldn’t care less. Only read this if you’re absolutely sure you have nothing better to do.

Teacher Tools: This is Why I Deserve (or Don’t Deserve for that matter). . .
March 22nd, 2007 · 14 Comments
Once, when I was doing my student teaching, I created a test for a “Business Communications” unit. Back then it was all about me, so I titled it “The Greatest Business Communication Test Ever” or something just as ridiculous.

Direct Buy: A Consumer Report

Direct Buy and the Magic of Lead Generation
I don’t know how many times I’d seen it. That chipper blond, the irritatingly giddy couples explaining how much money they’ve saved, the irrefutable logic of being able to purchase things directly from manufacturers, avoiding all those costly markups.

“Tracking something,” said Winnie-the-Pooh very mysteriously.
March 11th, 2007 · 15 Comments
Pooh was walking round and round in a circle, thinking of something else, and when Piglet called to him, he just went on walking.
“Hallo!” said Piglet, “what are you doing?”
“Hunting,” said Pooh.
“Hunting what?”
“Tracking something,” said Winnie-the-Pooh very mysteriously.
“Tracking what?” said Piglet, coming closer.
“That’s just what I ask myself. I ask myself, What?”

Global Warming: A Free Interdisciplinary Curriculum

The picture above is of my family (minus me, I’m taking the picture . . .duh) and Will Steger. It was taken at this year’s St. Paul Winter Carnival in January. The temperature that day was about 5 degrees and the wind was really kicking out of the north, so the wind chill was actually […]
