The students are taking a quiz on subject-verb agreement.

I know a lot of adults who could use a lesson on that.

Yeah, so do I. At least these students have the excuse that English is not their first language. The sad thing is that I also had to teach this when I taught these classes to native speakers.

Okay, comfort food eaten.
Here's hoping it stays down!

This is 'merica ... subjects and verbs don't have to agree on nuthin'. Sez so in the Constitution. The fifth Commandment I think.

Rams vs. 49ers on MNF; anybody got a preference?

I used to really like the 49ers, WAY back in the Joe Montana, and then Steve Young, days.

But I really don't like Kaepernick.

I just spent about five minutes hunting for another thread and wondering why I didn't think to "watch" the thread so I wouldn't have to search for it.

Finally found it, only to discover...I DID watch it.

Now I'm just wondering why I didn't actually check my watched threads first.

That's a tough one for me. 49ers are a California team ... but it is still San Francisco pretty much a republic all onto itself. The Rams were my team until some stinkin' broad whisked them away in the middle of the night. I have a huge investment in St. Louis. My daughter graduated from St. Louis University ... and is presently living there. ...

My best friend from high school lives in Columbia, Missouri. She's a Rams fan (ish. Not actually really into football), so since I dislike the SF QB so much, that's enough reason for me to pick the Rams tonight.

My great grandparents (and some random kid, a distant cousin, I think) in front of the "home" they homesteaded in the Ozarks back in the very early 1900s. The area where they lived was dedicated to them back in, I think, the 80s, and given the name "McElroy Gap" (their surname).

One of the photos my grandfather took while working in Colombia, S.A.

Pretty sure this is NOT where they planned to put that train!
