Frozen

Things are still kind of frozen here. Streets are clear and dry, but most shady areas still have snow and ice. Driving is no problem, and the weather predictors claim we will be mid-70s before the week ends.

Looking forward to teaching this week. Chapter on probability. Always fun, always hands-on. Lots of demonstrations and examples. Which leads into next week, where I will be alone in the house, except for pets, and will be doing endless pre-Spring Break TCAP preparations. Such fun. No, we don't teach to the test...not us.

If anybody out there is looking for distractions, I highly recommend conceptispuzzles.com
Sudoku and variations, plus other logic puzzles, from basic to complex.

And after years of waiting, this is the week of Watchmen. I have loved the graphic novel for quite a long time and have loaned out different copies over the years. My original copy was read and read more and is MIA. The nicer one, a gift from the people at DC Comics (and inscribed by a couple of higher-ups) is still here. It will be interesting to see how another "unfilmable" book (like Lord of the Rings) is received by people not exposed to the source material.
