I didn't accomplish anything this weekend, except consuming mass quantities of food and beverages. We had company from MA that stayed with us until Monday AM, and just had another BBQ last night.

Now I have to wait until October, I will be working 4 days a week with every Monday off, then every other Monday off from November until New Years....had vacation days left over and it was use'm or lose'm.....

Pete....let's see the finished work when your done....

Sorry guys I refuse to share my crap drawings. Plus I already handed it in.

So that's where you were, Edmo. I knew you were at a party somewhere I just didn't know where.

I told you guys before that the new teacher was too ambitious. Well he assigned 2 research papers 5-8 pages each plus three 2-3 page writing assignments. Papers are due in October the three 2-3 pagers are due Monday.

Government? What's that supposed to be?

I took Law. That pretty much covered the government and all branches ie executive, judiciary etc. That class sucked too.

edit: the class also covered "open container laws" and "search laws" among other things. Miranda rights especially. And what the course of schooling to take is to become a judge, how long to clerk for before you can become a lawyer. Lots of Latin names for things that I can't remember any more. It's been 16 years.

It's supposed to be about different forms of government and procedures within them, etc. Should be and has been a movie/slideshow class. But nope somebody's too ambitious for that...
