Climbing Out from Under a Rock to Find Snark All Over the Place and Yet Another Warning about Cell Phones Ringing in the Classroom

*


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.


Enjoy the rest of your summer!
