Ms. Snark is an academic. She is currently at work on a how-to book having to do with college freshmen and academe; If you have any good stories, either from a student or professor viewpoint, feel free to send them her way.
My, but lately it's getting crowded in the snark closet.
That's what happens when I go away for a long time and neglect my duties here. I sincerely apologize to the three people who actually read this blog...
Another Ms. Snark has taken up residence in the blogosphere, but I suppose the internet has room for yet another Ms. Snark. Besides, I have the domain name.
And now the good folks who run the internet decided to create a .me domain extension--actually, it's supposed to be a country code for Montenegro, but they have allowed all kinds of riff raff in, including an upstart who has a new snark site at Snark.me.
Snark.me? Pul-eeze. I'll stick with the .com name.
I'll bet it's one of my former students.
Last year was uneventful, TOO uneventful--I could barely conjure up the strength to work up a sweat about much of anything. It was kumbaya 24/7 in my classroom.
I mostly spent much of the year catching up on the happenings on the RYS compound; the anonymous administrators there have now decided to post ads. Can't say that I blame them. I shall be doing so soon, which may give me the impetus to post more often.
I can scarcely believe some of the tantrums some young people throw these days, but, certainly, my future students will refrain from becoming snowflake fodder.
Oh, by the way, as the school year begins to rev up, here's a cellphone warning from kingernoy:
I have been away FAR too long; meanwhile, some naughty child from far, far away has left some vitriol on my site.
Tsk, tsk.
Perhaps this unique little person ought to take a time out and self reflect on her pathetic small life...
At the very least, she ought to set up her own blog and spew there.
On the other hand, you, my dear students, have been behaving FAR too well; as a consequence, I haven't had the urge to post here, and this blog has languished since September 2007...
My bad.
Alas, the Professor is gone; from now on, it will just be me.
Poor Professor. She begged for mercy and cried, "UNCLE!"
She has been duly released from her sage duties and is enjoying her vast wealth in the Cayman Islands.
Meanwhile, I trudge along, freezing in a northern climate.
