"See the animal in his cage that you built..."

- Camp makes me want to teach highschool. Something is deeply, deeply wrong, and I think I could do better. It's not just that kids seem to be trained to tune out teachers, teachers are trained to tune out kids. People can't see when they've stopped saying words and started being background noise, at least not some of them -- at Maclay, even, O Tallahassee people! You remember a few classes like that, I'm sure! No more highschool-as-holding-pen. Teaching shouldn't be thought of as this quixotic endurance sport, either... it doesn't need to be hard. It's just people. Kids are just people. Teachers are just people. Maybe after the MS, I'll go back to highschool for a while... (Christin scottiegirlc, what do you know about this?)

- Some of our campers this session turn out to be pretty l337 :) We'll make them l337-er, perhaps.

- Also: "Right Where It Belongs" is totally a ska track waiting to happen. A ska track with heavily solipsist overtones!!

Yes, rather.

What should they be for, if not learning?

subjugating the proletariat into docile laborers.

It's true.

Only it won't be true after the Revolution.
