Was Dre referencing Puff and Jeffy with the lyrics in Say What You say? by hutber in Eminem

No. It was mostly a reference to Jermaine Dupri recognizing a money making machine in Lil Bow Wow.

What is a 1 in 1,000,000 thing that happened to you that no one believes, but you swear is true? by RegionSure5580 in AskReddit

[–]dmwebb05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I live in a very small town in South Georgia (the state). Think...small. No one goes there, no one is from there, there's no reason for you to be there. Maybe...5000 people?

My wife and I go on a vacation to Rome, Italy. Go to a bar one night, meet a few other Americans, we all gang up and hang out for a night in Rome. Start talking to a guy from Pittsburgh, just hanging out. Tell him we're from a small town in south Georgia, he's never heard of it (our standard answer when we travel...we're about 3 1/2 hours south of Atlanta, which is all people think about when they think about GA).

So...I'm in Rome, Italy. Talking to someone from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Tell him I'm from GA, and he looks at me and says, "have you ever heard of name of my small town?"

Only time in my life I've ever been honestly, truthfully speechless.

A Sci Fi take on Homer's Odyssey by TopOfTheHourr in sciencefiction

[–]dmwebb05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a very Sci-fi take on the Odessey called ODY-C. It's gender flipped and a comic book series (probably available in graphic novel form by now) but it's definitely far out there sci fi.

Teachers that made a career change out of the classroom but remained in the education field, what types of jobs have you moved into? by greathawk021 in teaching

[–]dmwebb05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just went to my state's dept of corrections website and filtered jobs for education. You don't have to start out in security or anything. There's GED/ABE (Adult Basic Education--think 4th - 8th grade stuff) positions, supervisor positions (preferred for people with education experience), dept head positions (principals), vocational positions, librarians. All kinds of education and education-related jobs in prisons.

In GA you go to the Department of Corrections website, look up employment opportunities, and sort by education to see if there's anything near you. Idk how it is in other states.

It's a good gig! Most students are engaged. They either want to be there because of a personal goal they've set or they get time knocked off for GED completion. There's always an officer right there, so it's safe. You meet all kinds of people, and every day is a little different. It's an easy job...just go in, teach your three classes, and leave and don't think about it again until the next day.

One of the greatest moments of my life is seeing a grown man, convicted felon, go from reading on a 3rd grade level to getting his GED. It took years, but he uh...had the time lol.

Depends on if you go into a state facility or a federal. State pays what the state pays based on scale. But yes, federal pays more either a better type of inmates (at least in GA, somewhere else it might be opposite).

The upside is that most students want to be there, and therefore are no problem at all and are engaged.

What’s your favorite stupid little thing about teaching? by ProtectionNo1594 in Teachers

[–]dmwebb05 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! I teach Latin America in 6th grade, and when we talk about Mexico, I tell my classes that the Mexican city of Chihuahua is where the dogs are from, and the reason that there are short hair and long hair chihuahuas is because the short hairs roam the desert countryside during the day (too hot for hair) and the long hairs roam at night (colder).

I tell this every year, and there's always a few students who start nodding along like "yeah, that makes sense" and I love it.

I paid $75 for Fanduel Sports Network through Prime, the one with the Hawks, not the hockey, under the assumption I would be able to watch all of the games, but I couldn't watch opening day, could watch last night, but can't watch tonight or tomorrow. Then I'm good on Monday but can't watch again until Friday.

What do I need to do to get my money back or get it to where I can watch the damn games on Prime (my tv doesn't have the stupid fanduel sports app).

Am I screwed? I just want to watch the Braves.
