Bedwetting flagburners lump all Christians with Abortion Clinic Bombers, I’m lumping all college professors with murderers.
ZOMG I SAW HIM TODAY!
“It’s good to be the King.”
Oh, okay. You made it up.
Cool.
I thought you had something like that “gaydar” they used to joke about on Saturday Night Live.
What ever happened to “You get an ‘F’”?
I think he killed his wife, who is an attorney and also works with
town and gown theater. Killed another attorney and UGA staffer.
His two young children were there. And they think he is driving
a red jeep liberty renegade. And his wife may be a divorce attorney.
Earlier in the day, he was so gay...then came the anger...
The professor got his B.A. from Swarthmore College. Blame the Quaker influence?
That was what I thought of too when I saw his picture.
To be fair, Athens has a very highly disproportionate amount of red cars. Go Dawgs!
Thanks for your comment. I left a good career to go back for the PhD and obtain my dream of becoming a professor. It was hard work but I completed the PhD and got a tenure track job on the first try.
Most people have no idea that professorships are national job searches. In some fields 200-400 people apply for every job. The competition can be intense and then when you get a job, your day doesn’t end at 5 o’clock or just because it’s a holiday or weekend. I’m not complaining; I choose the work, I’m just saying that most people have no idea what is involved in a PhD or becoming a professor.
I drive an SUV. I’m not a commie or socialist and work hard for myself and my students. I am the only conservative in my dept and I catch ‘good-natured’ (whose opinion?) flack about it all the time, but I try to fight the good fight. People have issues with black conservatives, as if I cause too much cognitive dissonance in their little minds. Unlike the libs, I try to keep politics out of my classroom - except when I’ve had to defend McCain as a disabled war hero, or the ‘evils’ of capitalism, or the fact that not everyone who is against same sex marriage or abortion is a knuckle-dragging moron.
I know FReepers like to make jibes at lawyers (used to be one), professors, school teachers, doctors, and just about anyone else in the professions, but it gets tiring sometimes.
Yes, clearly a Quaker crime of violence. :) But, you know, whenever an estranged wife or a divorced wife, especially with kids, is involved and other men are involved, we need, more than ever, to know the motive, to know the back story to that violence.
Ridiculous.
Hear, hear....not all of my professors were liberals, and the ones that were were easily discredited. Sometimes the willfully uneducated have a problem with those who actually went to college.
