Religion Paper I - DONE!

I had to write a four page paper summarizing and assessing (a favorite word for meek woman) the book What They Are Saying About The Formation of Israel. Well, let me tell you in one word - NOTHING!

The book was written in 1960 mind you and most of the arguments end up with the same conclusion-that MORE EVIDENCE IS NEEDED TO DECIDE...really? 100 pages of reading all the arguments for and against and you come with I DON'T KNOW???

That in nutshell is why I am a militant Agnostic-I DON'T KNOW AND YOU DON'T EITHER!

Yup, lovin' school and lovin' the fact that I am pretty much DONE for the week as far as "things due" go...

I will let you know how my papers were received when I know. Now I MUST finish my glass of delicious red wine from the Columbia River Valley, A 2004 Gordon Brothers Tradition. Very good.

College

What in the hell was I thinking!

I am officially a first year student at Luther College and officially old enough to be my classmates' mother and my professors' peer.

I am being challenged-mostly to keep my mouth shut and to LISTEN. I am trying to LEARN...but if you know anything about me (or the family that raised me)...you know that NOT voicing my opinion is like a devout Catholic NOT having a St. Christopher hanging from the rear-view mirror. Almost impossible and downright SACRILEGES!

I have not been challenged in my intellect-sans the NYT crossword-in quite some time and am looking forward to the next four years. I will do my best to keep my blogging up as to my experience. If any of you would like to review my papers, well step right up!!! I am in need of some fresh eyes-THANKS!

Because Toilet Paper Should NOT be NAKED?

Why? Why? Why? If the spare roll is THAT embarrassing to have out, try putting it under the sink or in a drawer or in the closet. Has anyone EVER taken the spare roll from under one of these covers? The same folks that use these never light candles and leave the labels on the "nice candles." They also have matching guest towels that are scratchy and have a dusty fold line because they have NEVER been washed. AND the their toilet water is always blue. You know who I am talking about...we all know at least one.
