One of my professors recommended the book to me. I'll be teaching soon one day and I know I'm going to face that issue one day. I'm hoping that I'll be able to look folks in the face and say, "No, I'm not going to handle it for you, but here's a way of handling it for yourself, and dumping strategies and just basic cultural info on them." Good job sticking of for your students.

For real? Man, we tried to watch that the other night and I think it gave me a stomach virus. So, sorry, I didn't know about Common makin' it through. Although, I did later recall the fact that Ice Cube survived that Anaconda that time, even over Jon Voight... Wait–let me just…you made it all the way through SMOKING ACES? For real?

Maybe I didn’t mention the Cheetos thing, but that cheese thing got me hungry for them now.
