Of course, do they turn the AC on before school starts? No.... So am I hanging posters and organizing in what is basically a greenhouse? Yes...<BR/><BR/>Does the AC even work that well when it is on? Of course not...not as well as a fan and a few open windows would anyway...<BR/><BR/>Great post! I grabbed it from CaliforniaTeacherGuy for my blog as well.Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18151262932309043192noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15193762.post-1154483571235715792006-08-01T20:52:00.000-05:002006-08-01T20:52:00.000-05:00Your comment on Pride and Prejudice, with a great ...Your comment on Pride and Prejudice, with a great beginning first line, puts me in mind of Anna Karenina with another great first line: All happy families are alike, each unhappy family is unhappy in its own way.<BR/><BR/>I enjoyed reading your book selections, and I laughed at your comment on californiateacherguy's where you said it's good to think of something besides your hot classroom. Are yours at least air conditioned? Ours aren't.Bellezza https://www.blogger.com/profile/18073864187188953633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15193762.post-1154480992259904352006-08-01T20:09:00.000-05:002006-08-01T20:09:00.000-05:00Thanks for playing along!

He served his country in an alternative way. Realizing that he couldn't go to war, even though he was utterly opposed to Hitler, he registered as a conscientious objector and ended up as a human guinea pig, being injected with hepatitis virus for medical experiments. Even though my dad never carried a gun, I knew he loved his country and he's always been my hero.<BR/><BR/>About that book you wish would be written: Why don't you write it? I'd like to read it too!<BR/><BR/>Last, but definitely not least, thank you for your kind words about my blog. It's nice to know that there are people "out there" who really appreciate what I write.CaliforniaTeacherGuyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03765655907043136511noreply@blogger.com
