Bored? How about Some Fun with Applets?

[MsCriseyde]

Everyone else is bored because DS isn't airing now. I don't have that excuse because I don't get Sci-Fi.

My excuse is that I am sick of grading all these student papers, so I have been goofing around with Bob's Seaview photo. If your web browser is capable of handling java applets, you'll be able to see this. If not, tough stuff.

This may take a minute or two to load depending on your connection. Rest assured that it is far more exciting than comma splices, run-on sentences, and passive voice.

my husband (high school english teacher) was just saying at dinner how much he hated these things too.  in fact, when he grades his papers you can hear him screaming in agony.  it is a horror story for sure.

Connie, what ever it is you REALLY do for a living....it's obviously not enough to satisfy your need to be creative.

For which the rest of us are enormously grateful!!

Well, at least you don't have to DO them every night!
I am dead tired; I was up until 1:30 in the morning last night doing Trig. Then, I woke up to my friend calling, asking "How do you convert Liters to Moles in Chemistry?" If I could, I would have punched her through the phone.
