I think one of my posts in The Negativity Thraed was "I hate micro-managers."

If the Brewers are out playing baseball games, who is making the beer?The Brewers swept another series!
Just had to Google who it was that they swept. I think I predicted very early in the MLB thraed that the Brewers would go all the way this year. Maybe I shouldn't have been joking!The Brewers swept another series!
The Brewees.

@NYwdwfan This must just be the week for schoolmade meltdowns. My daughter came home and broke down into tears, a mountain of tears and I couldn't figure out why. Ring, ring, calling a teacher. It seems they had a creative writing project where there was a child's swimming pool filled with sand and gemstones and the kids had to sift through to find one then write about it. Sounds simple enough but the kids who are really struggling with writing got first dibs and their gems were the size of a golfball. The last to go were those who excel (like my daughter) and their gems were the size of a dime. A dime! Needless to say it took the last students much much longer to find their gems and they didn't get to finish their paper. (Why the gems weren't all the same size is still a mystery to me.) After I said I would call the elementary school education coordinator, the teacher said those who didn't finish will be given the opportunity on Monday. 
Sometimes I just don't get the reasoning behind school projects.

When you're the leader, you don't have to follow.
WoW sends me to Google regularly."Words" is a daily must read for me. It's so much fun. I think I've even thrown in a few doozies myself!
I just responded with "Shoeless Joe" to "Field" and "of Dreams".
This made me realize that I had never actually seen the movie (or read the book), and knew nothing but the barest details, so I Googled it.
I will be adding this to my future reading/watching list.

Speaking of baseball, @JenniferS , I'm going to see your team tonight! And Sunday, when it will get up to 80 degrees (I'm SO EXCITED!!!)
EDIT: Just hoping we don't get rained out, otherwise they'll postpone the game...

You will be cheering for the Jays, right?!Speaking of baseball, @JenniferS , I'm going to see your team tonight! And Sunday, when it will get up to 80 degrees (I'm SO EXCITED!!!
Until a couple of years ago, Toronto used to OWN Baltimore. The past few years - not so much. We will need all the help we can get this weekend.
I will be scanning the stands for Dory very closely.

There is no reasoning sometimes. Why they had to go through the whole sandbox thing is beyond me and just wasted a bunch of time. And it's not fair to punish the kids who excel by making them go last. @PUSH never do this kind of thing to your students.@NYwdwfan This must just be the week for schoolmade meltdowns.

That is ridiculous. Let's "level the playing field" by giving the kids who excel less time to work. Who came up with that one??!

Watch it. James Earl Jones has a great role.

Of course not.
Yup, you always did, but then the Orioles decided to stop being a losing team. We get a fair amount of Toronto fans when they come to town. Just really hoping that the game does not get postponed, because if it does, they'll either play it tomorrow before the second game, which will wear out both teams, or they'll play it the next time the Jays come to town. My guess looking at the schedule is that they'll play it tomorrow before the other game. We have club level seats this evening (so second level) and then box seats to the left side of home plate towards the middle. So look for the random Blue Tang in the seats!
I would never have a pool filled with sand in my classroom to begin with. Unless you're a teacher who loves cleaning, that's just a stupid idea. I think the idea itself is neat, but there's too many flaws in it for it to be that effective.
