I'm jealous. You have a 58.3% positive rating,

Charlie, that's not quite right. Because the complement that would be a negative (as in 41.7% negative). And there's no way you could convince me that Leonore has that much negative about her. Another way to spin that is 99.92% positive rating (which is positive rating divided by the total rating). The number you're looking at would probably be better called the "popularity" index, as it is the ratio of likes to messages. Wait. Aren't you a math teacher?

How is your class coming along? Any more essays?

There are always essays. It's like the friggin' mail. Just never stops.

But having said that, I should have graded today but I didn't. When I got home from the cat shelter, I took a shower because I smelled like bleach from the litter box scrubbing and it was giving me a headache. I ate some lunch and then got really sleepy and crashed on the couch for a solid hour! Zelda, of course, took this opportunity, as she always does when I take a nap, to use me as a couch and take her own nap. :)

When I got up, I was just sort of meh, so I did some puttering, then went to have dinner with Buzz, and now I'm planning on firing Tuesday in about 30 minutes.

OK. 58% of her posts are positive? (total number/positive rating)/ Ah, heck with it -- Lenny is more positive than me!!!!!
 
KC is killing San Francisco.

Oh my god, call the police! A murder! And of a saint, even! He needs help!

Oh wait.

Is that baseball thing STILL going on?

Now I feel better.

Not in the least bit -- cartographer

Cartographer, mathographer.... seems same to me. Both show relationships between different things using squiggly lines. And besides, you HAVE to be a mathematician to understand the various ways projection can be done - don't try to kid me that it's simple as pie. :biggrin-93:

Well, yeah it is -- they have an app for that, now! :biglaugh:
True, I have to understand some basic algebra, especially when specifying the formula to calculate time to travel over a network segment when distance is in feet, speed is in miles per hour, and cost restrictions (traffic lights, speed humps) are documented in seconds.
