We've also got an interest in "Apocalypse Now," which requires studying "Heart of Darkness" first. Should be an interesting couple of months!

I'm planning on it! We can do maps, which is very important for our more visually-oriented students.

You've been a big help!

Lots of places here in Vegas have the rolling shutters, both as sun shades and for security reasons. I think they are an excellent idea.

"I have sheep Number 3..."

I believe number thirteen was the one with the bad luck. The classic scene was when thirteen removed the "Do Not Remove Under Penalty of Law" tag.

In the next scene, he was in jail with a tough looking guy. "What are you in for?" He was asked.

I bought it too...even read some of it.

But I suspect I bought it more as a political statement...and because it was the last copy on the table....
