I took one "how to teach freshman comp" course when I was finishing grad school, and mostly it was an attempt to prepare us for the horrors of teaching freshman comp. Didn't scratch the surface.
At my u, we had to do a couple of semesters as TAs as well, two classes to teach in each of two semesters, before we were

I went to my usual Walmart on Valentine's Day. Even though I was there earlier than usual (wanted to get it over with before the weather went bad again), the candy aisle was almost stripped clean of Valentine candy.

When I found out John Hartford had died, I went into the sort of depression that's commonly called "mourning," and it was a couple of years before I could listen to any of his

Please, someone—take the collected works of Sean O'Neal's Newswire
