    Txt will work better I think. Will post to FB that way.

  • Aside

    Playing with the facebook app for Windows Mobile. It’s kind of a letdown. I don’t see how to comment on other people’s posts.

  • Prof started quizzing us on verbs ten minutes before class started. What is it with professors overstepping their boundaries these days?

  • Damn it to hell, the image died. Won’t come up after a reboot. And the #redhat site has become luck of the draw clickies Even with the -show_cursor lynx switch. God I’m screwed.

  • OK all this lynx drama tonight clinches it. I will do all I can to learn Linux, just not under this professor. I’m skipping out on the next level of this class next semester. Dear Lord, please get me through this summer. Please?

  • I made Lynx puke. How the hell do you pull that off? I have no idea what I did to do that.

  • Damn, It’s only just now 4. God this is dragging on too long.

  • Dear #Redhat professor: Please answer your email. i’m not sending emails to you because I have nothing else better to do. No love, me.

  • Oh now we’re going to talk about non-verbal messages. I got some nonverbal messages right here.

  • Wisdom from today’s com class: Thinking you know more than the speaker, or that your oppinion is more valuable is egocentrism. This is bad. I mean the egocentrism is bad. It doesn’t matter whether or not you actually *do no more than the speaker.

  • Done with com class and headed home.

  • According to this book/lecture, one type of communication is horizontal communication. *snicker

  • And here we have the beginning of the moral relativism.

  • It amazes me that either the academic world feels people need to be taught this crap, or that people really do need to be taught this crap.

  • There are principles of communication? Wow. And one of these is: you’re always communicating. What a concept! And communication has two levels: what you mean, and how the other person feels about what you communicated. What a shock.

  • Trying to wrap my mind around the fact that someone actually got paid to write a book with com diagrams and models. This book actually has paragraph upon paragraph on communication and its various elements. So far, all of this stuff is very self-explanatory.

  • Have set a message of the day on the virtual machine. Let’s see what they think about that.
