Best Use of Ninety Cents Ever

Today's Revelations
   "It IS legal to call any sparkling wine 'champagne' in the United States, but its not considered very cool." -my VEN3 professor.
   I came to the definitive conclusion that my ECN162 professor is the worst teacher I've had here. He makes frequent mistakes in his diagrams and worse in the answer key he provided for a practice quiz for last weeks test; I now take everything he says with a grain of salt and vow to double check in the book whenever it sounds like he's gettins suspect again; students openly dispute points with him in class. I feel sorry for him, he appears to have the best intentions, but.. he's terrible.
   Most important discovery of all today, walking from that class to HIS138C with Danny Adams ([livejournal.com profile] genuinesarcasm) I was introduced to the concept of pizza bagel, which yes, I was hitherto unacquanted with. Best use of 90 cents ever.

I had an instructor for Hardware Installation and Maintainence who was rather...absent minded. He knew the stuff for the most part, but communicating it was an entirely different matter. And then he did occasionally forget things. One of the teams lost their motherboard after he said the extra power cord off the power supply should go in the digital audio header on the back of the CD-ROM. I asked if he was sure about that, he said we could try leaving it out. Most of the class listened but that one team was stuck without a MB for about a week :)

Then there's Andy... He just plain gets his words wrong, mixes up buzzwords and such. Not such a big deal if it weren't for the fact that the people he's teaching don't know the stuff (to be expected)...

Community colleges are fun :)

... were all the rage when I was in Junior High. I don't see too much of them anymore. They're pretty damn good plain, but then you try them w/ cream cheese, and... oh MAN... very intense.
