That is why those safari hats were called "pith helmets" because early ones had a point on top.<BR/><BR/>Since I am wandering off topic, I might as well give y'all another uncommon word: <BR/><BR/>petrichor (PET-ri-kuhr) noun<BR/><BR/>The pleasant smell that accompanies the first rain after a dry spell.<BR/><BR/>[From petro- (rock), from Greek petros (stone) + ichor (the fluid that is<BR/>supposed to flow in the veins of the gods in Greek mythology).<BR/><BR/>I can also add that the smell is caused by the oils of plants that have built up on the soil and rock.<BR/><BR/>Some of my friends tell me that I am a wealth of useless knowledge!Curious Servanthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11564580536911743558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12075278.post-1165795740328393602006-12-10T16:09:00.000-08:002006-12-10T16:09:00.000-08:00Congrats to your students, CS.

As far as being ...Congratulations to them and you!<BR/><BR/> As far as being theological, philosophical, scientific, or literary, that is for you to decide.<BR/><BR/> Your blog is for you, not us. You give us much, but never forget, owe us nothing. If we expect too much from you and you don't conform to our wants, boo-hoo.<BR/><BR/> You should be able to love your job, be proud of your accomplishments, write about it and not worry if the story of it is entertaining enough for the masses.<BR/><BR/> I know you feel a certain obligation to your readers. That is noble. But being true to yourself and feeling free to speak and write your hearts words is more so.<BR/><BR/> Now wipe that silly grin off your face and get some sleep:-)<BR/><BR/> J.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
