How Much More

I just don't think I can stand much more of this Reagan coverage on the news. You'd think from watching the news that this man did not preside over the biggest jump in the national debt in history. From watching the coverage, one might forget that Reagan went out of his way to roll back race relations in this country. And finally, let's not forget about how he cut federal funding to mental institutions, turning thousands of mentally ill people out into the streets. This man does not warrant the week-long stroke-fest he has received.

The one and only good thing I see coming out of all this coverage, is the face time Nancy is getting towards pressuring the Bush administration to lighten up on its position regarding stem cell research.

Bob Newhart - Comic Genius Passes Away

 A true comic genius has passed away today. One of the first comedy albums I remember listening to as a child is "The Button-Down Mind of Bob Newhart." His most famous shtick was the telephone conversation where the audience hears only his end of the call. The most famous and best of this is the " Introducing Tobacco to Civilization " skit.

Math Anxiety

I don't normally blog my school experiences, but I just found out today that I have to take more math. I thought I was done with math, but now I find out I have two more classes to take. I am so upset I can't hardly breath. I am so math phobic it's not funny. No, really, it's not funny. I have anxiety attacks in math class. I start to sweat and sometimes I literally start to shake. Years ago when working on my philosophy degree, I had to take logic and did relatively well. And I get so tired of having people tell me that since I did well in logic, I should do well in math. Well, it doesn't work that way, at least not for me. Otherwise (meaning except for the math) things go well. I am actually ahead in my Cisco class, primarily because I didn't take any math this quarter, and my Net Security class is a breeze. Fucking math! Whose ideas is/was it that one has to be a math whiz in order to work with computers?!
