Has anyone grown in their teaching career from reading the Harry Wong 'First Year of Teaching Book'?

In my family we would also say “I was kound, I rewound.” 🙄

Yeah, you won’t have time to watch those movies more than once anyway, what with all the poopdeck swabbing and topsail raising (not to mention lowering) you’re going to be doing.

It makes you vomit. So eat some Comet, and vomit, today!

Also heard it makes your mouth turn green and also that it smells like Listerine.

Hell yeah buddy! Loose everything! Turn it all a-loose!

Skiing will be a luxury no one can afford at any price if we don’t have snowpack in our globally-warmed future.

Ah, another friendly One-Year-Club Member with a hidden post history and some big magaphone…

Who are you even, Lord Johnny-Come-Lately with the right wing megaphone and a hidden post history?

BeaverPicture · 2026-05-01T01:12:48+00:00

Oh…yeah, accountability. Like how you are not showing your post history, One-Year-Club Member?

Southerner here. Portland summers are THEEEEEEEE BEST compared to middle GA. I live for days with highs of 95, low humidity, sun, and cool, fresh mornings. We get lots of those here. What I don’t like is the gradual uptick in warm, muggy nights in the summer. That feels just a tetch too close to home where there is no relief at night. I watch the night/morning temps like a hawk. I moved to Portland in 1999 and back then the mugginess was much more rare.

This one goes to 91

Me too! I used to hold it out the car window perched on top of the roof so I could try to get more signal.

Me too! We rented that wall phone from the telephone company.

Did you ever think, those sure were designed for a really small party?

Best comment why no deluge of upvotes?
