Students Write the Darnedest Things 12/17/2009 11:54:53 PM
I know I’ve been MIA for quite some time now, but I’m back, much to some readers’ disappointment I’m sure, although I must admit that I’m here tonight more in body than in mind. After all, I think my brain is numb, perhaps even dead. Of course, your brain would also be numb, or even dead, if you spent most of your life grading student papers and reading such brilliant and eloquently expressed comments as these:
I am not saying it is right or wrong. More like the way we are bread, it is in our blood.
Mother Teresa was of Spinach heritage.
As we embark into the abyss of this essay we will discuss both concepts.
The greatest architectural achievement in the 20th century was the Umpire State Building.
In the discussion forum I would make the best attempts to post as many threats as I can.
This is a tight knight group who works together to solve crimes.
There are definitely great examples of tormented creative minds, however, I feel there are just as many tormented geniuses, average people, and unintelligible people.
I believe that people can overcome language barriers if they take the time to familiarize them selves with the other coulters language.
Take football or rug bee they are both full blown contact sports.
I have to much on my shoulder's during the day then have a second job when I get home so it's still kind of hard to manure around and get all I have to do done.
The Greeks are known for the sexual degeneracy, as my sister that is a navy reserves told me. I never knew about the sexual tendencies of the Greek just by hear say and now reading about it in our reading assignment. I do remember hearing the Greeks did compete in the nude to please their "God's".
So, since nothing I could say tonight could ever possibly equal those statements in terms of either insightfulness or significance, nor could I ever hope to write with such flair, style, and conciseness, I think I will now go drink a glass or two or three of wine and see if I can numb my brain even further. But, never fear, I will be back--yet again.
