01:27 pm - It's Official
I am a main player in the philosophy class - and class, it has begun.

It is an online class, but I already have a bunch of reading to get through before Friday. I do have a good start though.  I have downloaded the syllabus and lecture notes, gotten a handle on what is expected from the assignments and how to turn in homework and engage in discussion.

The hardest part of this class - the mini-essays.  Not because I think they will be hard to write, but because he only wants a maximum of 250 words!  How the hell am I going to do that?  As you may well know, I love to ramble, so I will be counting on the Wers to be my beta and cut where needed - also to keep me focused on the main points.

Overall, it looks as though I have a wonderful instructor.  He loves his job (you can tell by his email) and can't wait to get us knee deep in philosophy.

This should prove interesting!

Oh, and I finished Alcetis last night.  It was a good read until the end which left me unsatisfied.  I was wanting so much more and it just seemed so rushed and sewn up too quick.  *sigh*  Oh well, it was a good read until then.

08:02 pm - It's a Barber Shop, It's a Gun Barn, it's...
Early last week, Angeal and me went to Frankenmuth to have lunch.

On the way to the restaurant we pass quite a few small towns. One town, Otisville, had us with our jaws hanging down with their Gun Barn/Barber Shop. That's right folks, you can get your hair cut then browse for guns! That way, when hunting season comes around you can look your best!!

We also went through another town that showcased a big semi-trailer that said (in pink letters) BIG DICK. It was parked in a lot next to a store that had trash bags masking the windows with no trespassing signs all over the place. This prompted much laughter and the slight wish that we had carried the camera with us.

Why do we always get the "special" outings?

I wasn't actually going to say anything about this...but on television tonight, there was an ad for The Gun Barn/Barber Shop (they have over 3000 guns!). Still special...
