Read
I recently read The Hunt For Red October. I made the same mistake again and watched the movie. I read the book first, so, this time I was waiting for things to happen in the movie that never materialized. Maybe, you should either read or watch, not both. The main character Jack Ryan, is once again out to save the world. He saves the day and the world from a death submarine that was built for one reason, to start a war. The book is very exciting and leaves you in suspense the whole time. If you do not like action, this book is not for you. The book is one of several pieces where Jack is the main character. It is like James Bond. How many adventures can one man have? Not enough, obviously. I did enjoy the read and liked the Movie as well. I wish there was more time in my day. When I lay down to read, I feel like I am neglecting something important. Maybe when all settles down in life I will be able to enjoy reading for liesure. Until then, It won't happen often.
Old reads
I decided to go back and read a couple of classics. I read True Grit. Of course, John Wayne is the man. Have you ever seen the movie? Glen Campbell is a hoot even without his guitar. For those of you who have not seen it, I highly recommend it. In this instance, I enjoyed the movie more than the book. I had seen the movie a million times and was locked into the scene sequenceing of that. If you see a movie before the book, it ruins the experience for me. The author is a Little rock native and has autographed the walls in the Faded Rose, a local and favorite restaurant.
A classic western and a must see or read, unless you hate westerns.

Figureing it out!
I think I finally have a handle on this blog business. Everything seems to be working at the same time. Except, I can not get anyone elses site to open. I wait forever and the progress bar only goes half of the way. I'm sure it's probably user error. Take Care
Anarchy
We are making preparations for the move to the new building and it is crazy. I expect to lose at least 2 weeks of productivity. The kids are ready for a break and becomeing very restless. I'm ready myself and am sure most of you feel the same way. Good Luck with finals.
Almost there

pics
Hey guys, the pics had to be re-formatted---of course! I'll post pics of the new classroom next week. Saying of the day---as long as you are green, you may grow. Once you ripen, you begin to rot. Take Care
hello
I have some pictures of my classroom but they are out of date. Next wednesday, I move into a brand new classroom. We have our own lab. This is a first. I'm so excited my head is spinning. The new school has been under construction for a long time and now we get to move in. yeee hee.
school
I hope school is going well. I love the classroom. Those little 8th graders make my day. I had no idea you could have so much fun at work. As a matter of fact, not a single day has felt like work. I know a few of you are having some difficulty with your current situations. Hang in there, It is all worth it!
almost there
I see that some of you have visited the site. It is nice to see the faces of my fellow classmates. I hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving. Take care, see you all soon.
Life is good!
Hey guys, I was hoping to have better luck with this blog business, but it takes me 15 minutes just to get to the site. Nothing seems to be working the way it should. Anyway, take care and I'll see you soon.
