rather disappointing… Weighed in yesterday and only down 1.5 pounds after a week on Jenny Craig. I was hoping for two and my scale at home apparently has no problems lying to me because it said I was down 4! Here’s to a better week of weight loss!
quite possibly the funniest comment ever from my Algebra II students… I was teaching my students to simplify radical expressions. They were finding it a bit confusing so I put it into their terms: You have one piece of junk plus 3 pieces of junk – How much junk do you have? They all shout 4 and I’m in heaven – they get it! So a few more examples and the “junk” looks messier so it becomes crap. They are still with me and totally getting it. So then we get to a problem where the radical expressions first need to be simplified before combined. So in my infinite wisdom I say: you have 2 pieces of junk and 3 pieces of crap – What do we do first? Student response: You just have a bunch of shit!
