My "proper mug"
This is the photo shot by my buddy Mike McLean. I originally had it as my profile photo but everytime I posted a comment, this rather large photo would follow along. I found that, well, rather annoying, and I hate it when I annoy myself. So now I'm posting with a bunch of monkeys which sadly is probably a bit more accurate. I have left this photo up only because Mike is such a fab-u-lous photographer and because he insists I need to have some sort of "proper mug" on my site. Apparently, the boa one and the monkey one don't qualify. Go figure.
A rubber chicken?

Just got your book yesterday after school. Stayed up waaaay too late last night. Made my day! Good job...a sequel coming up?
Thanks so much for the nice comment! Now, if only Oprah would read the darn tootin' thing. ;-)
Congratulations, Carol! Now I guess you'll have to write nice things about Jay's "challenge" index, not to mention his special loves, AP tests and charter schools. :-)
Do I get credit for buying your book even though I haven't read it yet? Fortunately, I'll have some time for non-work related stuff like that this weekend.
Tim,
Yep, we'll give you extra credit for reading the book. Can't wait to hear what you think about it. Make sure you let me know. :-)
One of these days you'll have to let me know what school you work for in Fairfax County. You know I graduated from West Springfield High School.
Somewhere in the back of my head I remember you mentioning you had attended school in FCPS. In a previous life chapter, I taught at McLean HS and West Potomac but currently I'm one of those evil, lazy central office types. :-)
Our small group hires, trains, and supports the school-based tech trainers assigned to every school. At least until the budget gets cut to the point we also assume the job of letting some of them go.
Tim,
Yep, I graduated from West Springfield High School. :-)
