Devil's Tower

[huinare]

Interesting legends about Devil's Tower, WY.  Many involve a bear attempting to capture children.  One includes a great eagle rescuing the children from the pinnacle (sound familiar, Tolkien fans?)

[On a totally unrelated note: I was amused recently to learn that the phrase In vino veritas is attributed to Pliny the Elder (evidently lifted off a Greek phrase attributed to Alcaeus).  I love that guy.]

I've never had a professor use a cart. That must be, like, a huge test, to need a whole cart.

He gives us each a legal pad to take it home in and write it on. So legal pad with test tucked inside, multiplied by however many students. (Plus, I think part of it is him just liking the looks on all our faces as the cart appears in the doorway.)

Power trip on, Mr. Professor. XP

He's hilarious like that. (Why do you think I want to become a professor? So I can do stuff like that.)
