Apologies to Bono, the Edge, and the other guys in U2 whose names are never remembered because they’re regular dudes.
Today, Tim and I hopped up early to get a jump on a stats test. We got to the library about 9:30 and worked for two and a half hours before breaking for lunch. The we [...]

We’ve covered Foxy’s sleeping habits, we’ve covered her exercise habits. What about her eating habits?

Yeah, that pretty much covers it.
No, that is not Foxy. But looks remarkably like her!

Do Kaya, Rufus, Bailey, Ted, Gus, Ben, Smalls, and Zapp WANT? Find out.

This exchange is a true story. Tim and I are giant nerds.
Yes, I do like to run to High School Musical. It’s upbeat. Keeps you going. But, by far is not the weirdest music in my collection. Because when you have a ton of songs, you have odd stuff.

If you think college was hard, wait till you start thinking you need a few more letters behind your name.

Last week we talked about one of Foxy’s favorite activities, sleeping in the sun. Now, let’s change it up slightly to one of Foxy’s least favorite activities.
My brother, my sister in law, and myself do enjoy taking the dogs for walks (as we’ve detailed before here) and sometimes we drag the Fox along. She hates [...]

This one I was sitting in a wood paneled bar with students, but this place only served soft drinks. I rationalized it to be at Elitch’s or somesuch. As I am sitting with the students, some guy from across the room asks us where we’re from. I tell the kids to not tell him, and [...]

That is gratifying to say. And it’s not even a semester, it’s really just seven and a half weeks.
My last two classes are Introduction to Statistics and Research and my Masters Research Project. I know, they sound boring, but I’m pretty excited because I get to explore a topic of my choice in the field [...]
