I'm eating what is left of this poor ole gingerbread man. He had no legs left, only one arm, and now he has no arms. I should be ashamed of myself.

I know what you mean, Jack.  I was a philosophy student, and most of my writing in college had to be cold and unfeeling.  If you showed any emotion or used wit you got points off, because doing that was seen as an attempt to appeal to something other than the intellect, and that was thought of as cheating.  I hated writing that way.  It never felt right to me.

I would imagine that you were supposed to be cold and unfeeling when writing papers for a computer class, too.  

I like the humor that you put in your writing now!

In college I was in Journalism where you are taught to take out anything descriptive and that hurt my writing. Also in poems you had to follow this thing called iambic petameter or something like that, that hurt me there.

Carrie Underwood mentioned one of those kind of drinks in her New Years Eve performance and the poor ole G Man is gone now.

David says Hawaii is 2 hours behind CA, so it's not 2008 there yet.
