• @DrewBrittain Is she using St. Nicks or Watchdogs? If the former, the location doesn't matter. If the latter, just go elsewhere. in reply to DrewBrittain #

• There's so many different choices I have for #grading today. And so I'll start with a @profhacker post that's not at all related. #
• @kickakitewunder @jociland @drewbrittain First person to my office in the next 20 minutes gets a free *print* copy of Halting State! #
• @erinsells Well, if you don't care, then it's not a problem. But if it's going to affect grade, I think you owe it him to give him heads up. in reply to erinsells #
• @erinsells To try curing non-participating students, give out preliminary participation grades. And make his brutal. in reply to erinsells #
• @samplereality Not sure, but it gives me the excuse to do this: http://bit.ly/atxKU3. in reply to samplereality #
• @mattthomas Right. The name probably refers to how few (%-wise) of that generation use social media, etc.But other titles aren't descriptive in reply to mattthomas #
• @samplereality I found it interesting that the generation before Baby Boomers was the "Silent Generation." Seems reductive. in reply to samplereality #
• @mattthomas No. But tweeting about your results afterward and obsessing about them is. in reply to mattthomas #
• 3 out of 4 classes took a mid-term today. I graded. And then got talked about Halting State in 4th class. Not a bad start to the weekend. #
• @KickakiteWunder Ah. That explains the laughing perhaps? in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• @jcmeloni Well, it's been a while since I read it, so I should probably qualify my statement. IOW, forget I said anything. in reply to jcmeloni #
• @jcmeloni I look forward to hearing how it goes. It's a piece that I have mixed feelings about. in reply to jcmeloni #
• @JociLand You can do it. Or at the very least recognize it will be over soon. in reply to JociLand #
• @JociLand Cite the name of the lexia in parentheses. in reply to JociLand #
• @ktcrow I shifted part way through grad school. One space sneetches are the best on these beaches! in reply to ktcrow #
• Glad to be doing a #geoinst pow-wow over Google Chat rather than voice. Cause this way they won't know that my voice is naked. #
• @KickakiteWunder You don't say? in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• @DrewBrittain Not a chance. Nice try. in reply to DrewBrittain #
• My day is rapidly slipping away. And I've still got a test to write and #classprep for #eng465. Thus was it ever. #
• @drnels I am using the #e399 and the #eng399 hashtags for a couple of classes. #eng465 is another, although it's not seeing heavy use yet. in reply to drnels #
• Nikola Tesla's letterhead is a-maz-ing: http://bit.ly/b7Tpxy. At Letterheady, which @foundhistory was kind enough to share. #
• @erinsells If you play with the settings afterward, you can see that single answers have a large sway on the score. Seems strange. in reply to erinsells #
• @erinsells No tatts. No piercings. Parents are still married. And I subscribe to a newspaper. in reply to erinsells #
• @cscannella So that means I'm 55? Or do you subtract your score from 100, so I'm 45 and you're 38? in reply to cscannella #
• I'm only a 55/100 on the millennial scale. I am officially old. http://bit.ly/aCSt1S #

• @KickakiteWunder @JociLand @DrewBrittain You can also buy it from Barnes and Noble and read on your computer. http://bit.ly/aVEmYn #
• @KickakiteWunder Both Barnes and Nobles in Greenville have it. in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• @KickakiteWunder You could buy it for the Kindle app and read it on your iPhone. (Which wouldn't be pleasant.) in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• @KickakiteWunder I understand that this isn't Emory. But I also have no control over the bookstore's stock and when they remainder books. in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• @KickakiteWunder @JociLand @DrewBrittain This is why you need to buy texts at the beginning of semester. *sigh* in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• @JociLand Well, see if you can find a copy on campus or in the neighborhood. Let me know if you can't. I *might* have an extra. Can't recall in reply to JociLand #
• It's a double-Sweden day! New albums from Shout Out Louds and Sambassadeur! Excuse me, now, while I go twee by myself. #music #
• Commute home was epic: the Fuck Buttons album finished right as I pulled into my driver. #music #
• @JenHoward At some point people will catch on to me and start paying my way. *Then* where will I get my buzz? in reply to JenHoward #
• Congrats @barbarahui and @ryancordell for #DH2010. I didn't apply because I knew cash flow would be a problem. #
• @JociLand They send extra copies back to the publisher after a while. Did they have it at the beginning of the semester? in reply to JociLand #
• @rusackas What do you mean? You've been following me for months! in reply to rusackas #
• @jbj So…you're saying you're the judge for the award for the best story? And I thought only @amandafrench was reading romance today. #
• @eetempleton It's unusual. And it means that I'll have some serious prep work to do as I have no excuse not to be awesome. in reply to eetempleton #
• @jonbecker Please do! in reply to jonbecker #
• @KickakiteWunder I will be exonerated. My class comes with an iron-clad EULA that you accepted by not dropping after the first minute. in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• They've sent questions ahead of time, which is nice. But it also means I've got some serious prep work to do. #jobmarket #
• @KickakiteWunder You are *not* safe from own bombs & if you switch tabs on a place where you placed a mine and switch back, you get nailed. in reply to KickakiteWunder #
• Phone interview scheduled. #jobmarket #
• @samplereality It's too bad that @Pierre_Menard_ appears to have not noticed your blog. in reply to samplereality #
• @erinsells But you then feel compelled to make it collaborative by asking questions to get them to do your reading for you. Which fails. in reply to erinsells #
• @erinsells I think it's because if one knows it well then one tends to have a particular reading to get to. in reply to erinsells #

• In 75 minutes tomorrow, I'm going to try to get through an overview of modernism, Pound, Frost, and Sandburg. I've made a huge mistake. #
• To counter @jbj's upcoming THS concert, I'd like to mention that Beach House and Washed Out are in Atlanta on 29 April. #
• @jbj You know me too well. I'll defer song writing duties to @georgeonline. I will simply look slovenly and menacing. I will *be* the townie in reply to jbj #
