Obama McCain

So glad to see people still here! Feels like friends!

I'm in the lab with my students again tonight, Wednesday, and I have them watching the debate on TV. I only have one student who likes McCain and I think he is crazy. He's actually great... crazy.

Those pictures are screwed up, I'll try it again. Peace,

Tonight in the lab

I'm a bad blogger, a bald blogger, a bad bald blogger... Who cares? People get carried away with these things. I've had friends find this blog and leave comments. I haven't been myself lately. I guess I just don't like to work. It's a funny thing, to love your job but to hate work in general, makes you fucking crazy.

I'm in the lab with my students tonight. They seem to like it. The ones who know how to use computers like it more than the ones who don't. Motivation is the key to teaching, I believe that big time.

Anyway, I am going to post a real time picture now.

ESL in the Night

I am letting my new students get on teh internet for the first time tonight. Many of them have been in the USA for les than a month and they have heard all about this thing but they haven't ever actually seen it. I noticed when I let them go at it, a couple of them went straight to Youtube! Funny. The first thing they go to is the most mindless thing out there. Of course they have heard of google and yahoo, but youtube?

How the hell is everyone? there doesn't seem to be a lot of everyone left anymore... that's okay. Its like the end of Dr. Strangelove, the song, we'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when, but we'll meet again some sweet day? Does that work? Gotta get back to my estudiantes.

Peace

New Job

Looks like I am teaching college starting Monday. I can't wait. I'll miss my kids but I'll have new bigger ones soon. I'm terrible at keeping up with this blog but I'm always interested in seeing who has stopped by while I was away. Soon, since I'll have a job, I'll be able to stop by here more and more and then it'll be back where it used to be.

Cocoa Beach

I've been away, surfing. Trying to surf. Fishing, drinking, skateboarding, of which I am very proud of myself because I do not skate. Steve had a long board skateboard, right up my alley. I'll post some pictures soon. How is everyone here? I'll check out your blogs and say hi soon, I promise. No band, no more Bottomfeeder, moving into the city hopefully soon. Downtown! Peace

Buenos Dias!

Hello there everyone,
Its been a while since I've had time to write one of these things. I've been working at BottomFeeder Bay since the day I got out of school and things are swell... Our band played saturday night and rocked the house. We play again at the competition East Pine Pub on Friday night.

Loads of music and booze since quitting teaching. Its so sad to think that I am not going back. I saw my kids yesterday, when I finally went to clean my room, and it was sad. But part of the reason I was stressed out teaching is because I couldn't save all those little buggers anyway, and I could stand to watch them grow into fuck ups... I don't think teaching has to be a lose-lose situation, but teaching kids who live in the trailer park isn't exactly win-win.

Post pictures soon, out
