The Chit Chat Chit Chat Thread

[betty rose]

We've probably all run into that. In college we had two classes that were taught by the same guy. They were Cost Accounting and Tax Accounting. The professor was at one time the CFO of General Electric. He had retired from GE and wanted to teach. It was obvious that he was totally versed on Accounting, however, he lacked the ability to convey that information to people that were just learning it. We all, and I'm talking about those that were high achievers and those that were just floating along trying to get a degree (you're all welcome to decide what area I fell in). We all were failing miserably. It got to the point where we would go to class and since this was in the pre-electronic era, we just swiveled in our seats and talked to each other during the class. We were all completely lost.

Over the Christmas break, the professor had a heart attack and died. He was replaced by a recently relocated West Indian gentleman that none of us were able to understand, so the story continued for another semester. They ended up giving all of us a C for both courses and sent us on our way out into the world doing everything in our power to avoid having anything to do with cost or tax accounting.

I wish my professor retired early (or checked out) , !

I agree.. you can always use your fists when that moment happens

I'm a girl, but I could use my legs to kick!

All is OK, it is getting close to Christmas and I can now add a Blue-ray to my list.

I'll tell Santa that you have been good (relatively speaking), and ask him for one for you and me! I hope you don't mind me on your Christmas list!

Not at all... there's strength in numbers!

seems a skunk decided to NAP in your yard? XD

Just passing through I hope!

We had many skunks in Kansas. I have never smelled a skunk in Colorado. Maybe they don't like the high altitude.

I always say bunnies are the best. They really love organic apples!

Me too ! I have loved little and big bunnies forever. We had a lot of them on the farm! I loved seeing them in the carrot and cabbage garden! Mom and Dad always planted more than we could eat , so there was enough food for the bunnies. All of my family loved and respected animals.

I would like to add a Disney vacation in Disneyland. Is that bad?

I love this. I used to feed the bunnies outside, to make a long story short, neighbors don't like bunnies. At least he traps them and hauls them off to a nature preserve.

If my local bunnies want to play in my yard no problem. For some reason the groundhogs don't like my place

@FutureCEO , have you seen the latest discovery news out of Great Britain yet? (From ABC News below.)

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2015-09-08/stonehenge-archeologists-find-huge-neolithic-site/6756806

I saw it but never looked at it in detail. Henges are amazing mysteries. Finally something good to come out of Britain other than the past few days.

Roger is both cute and scary at the same time. But those muscles are natural, right?

I dunno, it seems natural.. the guy runs around in and out of the reserve if I remember correctly.. and constantly plays with the guy who rescued him.

Still, Some animals can develop some sort of hypermuscle growth.. a genetic issue.
Even dogs can have it!

For example.. this doggy:

despite the huge musculature and he-man appearance.. She was reported to be extremely docile and playful.
The overmuscle isnt good of course... It can squeeze the lungs and heart If I remember correctly.

definitively cute. I still wonder what the whole movie will be about.

well, it definitively passed gass...

Perhaps there are some hidden buried corpses from an ancient burial ground or crime that noone reported?

I'm sure it wasn't like this on your farm, but I like to think it was.

While you're at it, add one (or several) for me, too! I think we all deserve more vacations.

Finally Disney Movies Anywhere comes to the Kindle. Granted I only have 4 movies in electronic format. I rather buy the DVDs.
