April 5, 20196 yr I actually believe the testing should not be in the text book. That defeats the purpose of learning. It is called learning, not memorization. That being said, do realize I am a Physicist so what I would be tested on is concepts and such. This even applies to abstract things like history. A history test shouldn't recall your understanding of history, but the application and understanding of what was learned or could have been learned from that history. Way harder to write that test, but it is a much better indicator of true learning.
April 5, 20196 yr That being said, all I learned in college was how to learn which is really all that is important anyways.

She's 15 years old and has a bad limp from arthritis due to a fall she had over 10 year ago. She had been seeming to lose a bit of weight as of late. Kind of think she may have snuck out when one of the kids had a door open a couple of days ago. She's been gone up to 5 days before and made it back fine. We never declawed her even though She's an indoor cat, so she still has all of her defences. For some reason though, i just have that strong feeling in my stomach that she won't be coming back this time. She's spent the last couple weeks glued to either myself or the 2 year old, not really doing too much, and now she's just gone. Just that strong feeling like she left for a reason this time. Oh no, I am sorry. I hope kitty comes back soon.
April 5, 20196 yr Forgot i posted that. Found her. She's being fairly distant though and not nearly as close or snugly as she normally is. She's also not coming when called, or playing like normal. But She's here. Hoping she'll perk up and be back to normal. She's not even being cuddly with the two year old and they've been inseparable best friends for the last year.

She must be pretty well loved for her to normally be so affectionate. You also notice her being different so that's good on you. Silly thought, but rather than thinking the worst, could she be pregnant? Maybe some Tom cat has been keeping her busy. It is spring time!

Definitely not preggers, we had her fixed when she was a kitten. Hoping she just needed some quiet time to herself.

April 9, 20196 yr Who owns the murdered out celica with the wing that was eastbound east of the cities at 10:50ish AM? Sundown sticker in the back passanger micro window. I bet whoever's that was is from SSA.
April 9, 20196 yr Pics for Ryan. 2011 Mustang with 82k miles. The paint was very rough and full of stone chips, but the fellow was super happy he finally got a car. This paint correction was a personal challenge of my skills. The front bumper was shit. Someone hit something and did a shitty job covering it up. I did this as a favor for the fellow and I will never do another car this rough again. Full 10 hours of correction!
