[9:33 AM EST - Icy Roads. Really?]

We should be getting some freezing rain soon. It's been raining this morning and the roads are (supposedly) starting to ice up. I never noticed. It may have to do with the fact that

  1. I'm driving a boat.
  2. I'm driving at/below the speed limit.
  3. I'm half asleep.
  4. I've got an horseshoe hidden somewhere. (No wonder why I walk funny.)

In any case, I was flipping through the paper today and came across an article on how we're going to have a shortage of professors and faculty members in Ontario's universities in the next few years (especially when the grade 12/oac crunch comes along). I had considered at one point in time on becoming some sort of teaching type fellow, and although I can see the rewards in inspiring kids and teaching them, the headaches and responsibilities are too much for me I think. I don't think I'd be able to handle it in the long run. Besides, I don't actually think I'm a particularly good teacher, I'd be mostly incoherent in the morning, zoned in the afternoon, and hungry in the evening.

What difference does that make in other professions? *thinks* Uhh, so how about them Leafs?

Okay, off to responding to e-mail. This shouldn't take too long.. *flip*

[1:18 PM EST - Links and stuff.]

While I was whittling away at these margins, I recieved some e-mail from a number of sources. One was from Growly informing me about his parteh this weekend. Tempting..

I also got a link from FlyingS after he read one of my sigs. I'll reproduce the quote below:

I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute -- where no Catholic prelate would tell the president (should he be Catholic) how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishoners for whom to vote--where no church or church school is granted any public funds or political preference--and where no man is denied public office merely because his religion differs from the president who might appoint him or the people who might elect him.

- from John F. Kennedy's address to the Greater Houston Ministerial Association September 12, 1960.

Quite interesting, although FlyingS also sent this disclaimer:

Of course, Kennedy *was* a Democrat. And not all that popular in Texas, apparently. The anti-Bush, as it were.

Finally, girl sent me a (pretty bad) joke:

So, I heard that the Japanese recently shipped 50,000 cases of Viagra over to the U.S.A. Apparently they heard that the whole nation can't get an election.

Apart from that, I got a death threat from Squishy. That's about it!
