- Is it weird that I'm testing Windows Live Sync with files that live in my Dropbox folder? Will I inadvertently sync a sync synced? #
- @MrR0g3rs I think, though, that I'll be able to make a backup at the same time. So that's something. in reply to MrR0g3rs #

- Gingerbread cookies. Eggnog. Friends. Good. #
- @willrich45 According to my rulebook, after Thanksgiving is okay for Christmas music and eggnog. So I'm tossing my red flag. in reply to willrich45 #
- Okay, tweeps. @willrich45 says eggnog is December only. I say after Thanksgiving. We need a ruling. What say you? #
- @dkdykstra We only make our own. in reply to dkdykstra #

- _The Atlantic's_ "Syllabus as Essay" makes for some interesting reading. And an interesting writing task. http://j.mp/fJqkHk #

- Mmm. Toast. Just a little. #
- It bugs me when people want to replace words like "classroom" and "teacher." I'd much rather those words meant something special. They do. #
