International Systems and Theory

Wednesday, May 31st, 2006

i got my grade back from my first post-grad class. out of a possible 1000 points, i totaled 844. so i got an 84 percent.

i received 340 on my final (out of 390) and have no feedback on it yet.

for those of you who know my trials and tribulations through this class. i’m happy with the B.

The Honest Blogger Quiz

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

i read Tony Pierce from time to time. he was one of the fiorst blogs i stumbled on and i used to read him near daily. i don’t have time for that anymore. but i still do make a visit every now and again. this finally paid me back.

about a month ago i last stopped by his site, and he had just visited houston and austin with his job. oh well. not that big a deal really, but i have yet to actually meet any single blogger except for madame butterfly. and that’s cheating because i worked with her before either of us blogged.

anyway, tony has the honest blogger quiz up. he invented it, and i thought i’d give it a go.

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

Moonbatty is up in arms. not that unusual really. she doesn’t fly off the handle that easily, but she does go off on a rant every once in a while about a perceived threat.

the flavor of the week is the ‘wire tapping’ being done by the nsa.

damned BJ and Tyler won the amazing race 9 tonight. my team never wins! i don’t think my favorite team has won a single time. Well, one time i just wanted Rob and Amber to lose and they did. so i guess that’s a small victory.
