Sounds like that original teacher was a jerk. If most students are failing the tests, then he's either not teaching correctly or the tests are bogus.Quote:

That's 115F for we Americans. That's pretty hot. Was there humidity too or was it a dry heat? Ive been in a desaert where the temperature has reached 130F or 54.5C. But it was a dry heat. But at that temp who cares dry, wet, it's hot!Quote:

Wow, it seems like you have done very well, Dori! :)
Hmmm my boast? I managed not banging my head against the wall when I really wanted to do so. Damn it now is that something to boast about?
Yes, I know. :pQuote:

Not to rain on your parade, Night, but the search lists only the most recent 500 results in any search. The ones before that doesn't get listed.Quote:

I have no parade to be rained on so be my guest.
You mean since October 2006 the term hasn't been used?
No I was viewing oldest to newest and so it showed only the oldest 500...
:D
Edit: there have been 500 posts referring to litnet since the 28th of January this year.
:D
In that case, it must be so... Way to go!
I have just completed the General Knowledge Crossword in Saturday's Daily Telegraph, for only the third time ever - and I only had to look up four clues. (Oh, all right, six clues.) Now I'm going to post it off and win £200 and a copy of Whitaker's Almanac - that's me and goodness knows how many hundred others. :)
OOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!! I finally have something to boast about! :D

That's awesome Niamh!! Way to go! :thumbs_up
i went to the dentist today after more than a year (yucky, i know), but i have nothing wrong with my teeth! no cavities! very noice.
p.s. this has nothing to do with boasting.. but, one thing i found absolutely silly.. my dentist asked me if i have kids. i stared at him for a moment and replied, "no, i'm only 19!" besides, i always thought i looked young for my age. what a weirdo.
That does sound like he had some ulterior motives. I wouldn't trust him.Quote:

And the guys with a wedding ring on, don't they use pick-up lines? :pQuote:

Maybe the dentist has a regular line of 'patter', like hairdressers: 'Have you been away on your holiday yet? Where did you go? oooh, lovely! Are you doing anything special this weekend?' etc. etc Maybe he was kicking himself for launching into his usual line of mindless chatter with only half his mind on it when he suddenly realised he had started on the wrong one!Quote:
