I don’t really want to tell you all how impatient I am with the undergrads in my education class (y’all, they are so annoying, with their talk of how 8am classes are too early and the way they say “education should warm the heart of the soul” and actually mean it. What does that even mean? My soul doesn’t have a heart. That could just be because I am old and bitter and impatient. But I digress). Let’s just say that they are not my favorite, shall we?
Instead of that, I will tell you about the large gathering I saw at UNCG last night as I approached the library. There were police cars and I heard yelling, and as I got closer I could read the three signs. One: “Do you love your sins enough to go to HELL for them?” Two: “There is no god.” Three: I don’t remember exactly, but it was something about Jesus being the answer for peace in the world. Also, the third one was not so much a sign as a guy wearing a sandwich board. I strongly disapprove of sandwich boards unless the person wearing them is actually a giant pickle.
Anyway, I was greatly encouraged to see that nothing has changed at UNCG since I left except the place where people gather to hold up these signs and scream at each other. Oh, UNCG, I have missed you and your saucy ways.

Great use of “saucy”!
I used to try for 8 AM classes, so I guess I don’t get it either.
I think I would join any religion advertised by a giant pickle in a sandwich board.
“I think I would join any religion advertised by a giant pickle in a sandwich board.”
Thus begins my plans for world domination.
What’s it like, being in school again?
I just so happen to know where we can find a giant pickle mascot to wear our sandwich board of world domination. Let me warn you though.. he is a filthy pickle that loves Kenny Rogers. Just let me know.
That pickle sounds perfect! Kenny Rogers is just an added bonus.
Geof: It’s not bad. I hope the semester goes okay. At least it is pertinent to what I am doing.
The pickle’s there for his looks, not his musical tastes. He can just shut up and hold the sandwich board.
That’s how I begin world domination. It might make a good motto, too. “Shut up and hold the sandwich board.”
