Another step in our summer Tech Learning process was to set up a Google Reader account and start subscribing to RSS feeds. Well so far, it has cost me $15.00 for a t-shirt with the entire poem The Raven printed on it in the shape of, you guessed it, a raven! I have annoyed most of the people I know with stupid jokes–What do you call a cow with no legs? Ground beef! And I have started dropping words like mephitic (smelly) and gustatory (pertaining to sense of taste) into conversations. And, that we have a new book in the library called I was told there’d be cake by Sloane Crosley–I can’t ignore that title! All in all it has been great fun!
No longer must I surf the net, relying on serendipity to find these marvelous things. They come right to me. Hopefully, I will learn to use the information wisely. Such as this brilliant quote from former first lady, Barbara Bush: “War is not nice.” She ought to know.
