The House Majority Leader Tom Delay has had a warrant issued for his arrest. Pretty funny.. The squeaky clean Republican party isn't so squeaky clean after all.
weather, cycling, and school
I like the weather we're having. As Lori and I drove around this evening it was between 71 and 67. If only that temperature was there withouth the rain I could ride my bike. Sure, I can ride my bike in the rain and wet, but it makes my bike a mess, which is a living hell to clean up. All that sand mixed with water gets in the drivetrain. Speaking of which, I haven't been good about riding my bike the last couple weeks. I need to get better at that.
So I had my first day of school today. University of Phoenix Online offers to "walk you to class" on your first day. For some reason that's just hilarious to me.. So let me give you the overview of how this works. You post to a newsgroup twice a week to count as attendance. Then the instructor sets their limits for participation posts. For instance, my instructor is requiring 2 posts on 4 days per week. The participation counts for attendance. The last week of the class there is no participation required, just any random two attendance posts. I have multiple papers to write individually and in groups, and two discussion questions I must answer per week. Apparently some classes include discussion question replies as participation, but this one doesn't. I also need to do reading as is expected in any college class anywhere. It all seems pretty straightforward so far, but it will no doubt get interesting once the group work starts.
Bill O'Reilly is on the Daily Show right now and I have to say this is hilarious. Not quite Jon Stewart on CNN funny, but pretty hilarious.
