Ding ding ding. You hit it right on the head, I think. I love my students very, very much. They are well-meaning most of the time, but so many of them spend their first semester/year making "learning" mistakes.

Well, at least he isn't sorry only if he offended you.

Not until I'm jetskiing in Barbados with Rihanna.

Well, he can always move to Kentucky and run for the US Senate someday.

Rand, you say you're a man of your word... so please, follow through with your threats.

What a wimp …. Now he is even threaten to quit politics don’t let the door hit you’re a$$ on the way out buddy. There is no way this little puke could handle being the leader of the free world…..
