[11:46 AM EST - Geography exam.]

Whoa, girl found this entrance exam for high school geography. I could tell you most of the locations and stuff, but nothing about the industries and very little about the climate specifics.

Pretty darned tough I must add, although their curriculum was probably very different back then.

This sort of reminds me of a geography test I took in grade ten. It was for a physical geography course and the question was something like:

"Why is the Niagara region an excellant area for growing fruits and vegetables?"

I gave an answer related to the soil, how it used to be part of a lake bed and the sediment was excellant for growing, as well as the climate being good, etc. But apparently the answer he was looking for (and what used to me "common knowledge" was the fact that in that region, since it was bounded by the Niagara escarpment, cold air is generally trapped in the low lying areas, which forced the plants and trees to bloom later in the year. This prevented them from being damaged by early thaws or temporary warming in the early spring months.

At least that's what I think the answer was supposed to be. It's been over ten years since then..

[11:55 AM EST - Fly on the wall party.]

Well, a date's been set for the company Chirstmas party. I should mark that on my calendar.

Also, I'm supposed to be a fly-on-the-wall in this upcoming meeting. I can do that. I'm good at that!

[12:07 PM EST - While on the wall..]

I found this quote from SM interesting,

"You the man Jenny,"

Is there something not right with that statement?
