What law or rule exists because of you? What happened?
  • You know, I always reread my comments before hitting the post button so that I don't leave mistakes but somehow I still miss stuff like this. I'm starting to realize why I needed all of the extra credit in the first place.

  • What law or rule exists because of you? What happened?
  • My trigonometry teacher in high school had an extra credit corner. There were daily math puzzles and similar ways to get a couple of points here or there. I figured out that even if killed the rest of the term, I would finish with a low B. With the daily puzzles I could maybe bring my grade up to a more solid B, but an A was out of reach. Then I realized that one option was to bring in a cutout of a cartoon that had something to do with math. He was talking about cartoons from the newspaper, but this was in the 90s when digital media was starting to be a thing. I did a Yahoo! search for math cartoons and printed out hundreds of them. I printed anything that was even tangentially related and brought in a stack of papers an inch thick on the last day of class. It was enough. I got the grade by the slimiest of margins and the next year the extra credit corner had a 2-cartoon limit.

  • What am I growing here?

    !!I had some left over seeds that I planted after the rest of the garden was in. I thought it was oregano, but clearly this isn't oregano. Can anybody tell what I have (besides a slug problem)?
