T is for Tempered

As in tempered glass. As in safety glass, the material of half of a door that is no longer hanging on the bookshelf pictured here. T as in The menace, which is what Yang Guo aka Clarence aka the Evil Kitten of Doom aka Wingnut is often known as. T as in Toy, which is what the plastic bag that contained a single bottle of beer turned into as The Menace huled it across the floor. T is for projecTile, which is what the Toy became as it crashed into the Tempered glass, creating a perfectly round hole. T as in fracTured, which describes the pattern that emerged on the glass. T is for Trash, where the door is now.

T is for Taubenberger



My students produced a live Internet broadcast with Republican mayoral candidate Al Taubenberger last week. It was very successful.

T is for Typing


Typing and typing and typing away. The ICA deadline is this week, midterm exams, Web site enhancements. All of this has been accomplshed without the benefit of the letter T. Fortunately, I finished the book chapter about a month ago, when I was still with a T. Sometime in the next 10 days I should get a new laptop, with a new T.
