Archimedes Meets Shakespeare

Archimedes is probably the coolest guy in all of history. I mean, the guy invented the cuckoo clock, the odometer, and a semi-modern irrigation system, ALL BEFORE 200 B.C.E.! He was a mathematician, a physicist, and an architect at the same time, and basically defended tiny little Syracuse, Sicily from the entire Roman navy using his own Grecian noggin. And Shakespeare, well, he's pretty cool too, and I'm an English teacher. Read Hamlet.

Post-Thanksgiving Tragedy

So it was a beautiful 75-degree Saturday in Tucson, and I decided to go for a swim. Yes, of course, you're all jealous. Well, on this gorgeous swim, I had forgotten to take my cell phone out of the pocket of my swim trunks. Hence, no more phone.

I'd elaborate, but the truth is pretty clear. Instead of entering into a new contract or buying a $300 phone, I decided to pawn a replica of my old phone off eBay for $35. We'll see how this works, as I usually don't buy anything off eBay. Send me your best wishes!
