Back To School
Second summer semester starts today, so I'm back to the wonderful world of undergrad. I'm taking an Excel class, which is hilariously listed in the registration catalog as "Spreadsheet Anal"....I'm assuming that's a truncated version of "Spreadsheet Analysis", but maybe not.
And I'm taking Windows OS, which looks to be incredibly boring for the first half of the semester. Chapter 3 for example, explains how to properly shut down your computer. Mike said that was easy, you just hit the power button. Not me, I said. I go flip the circuit breaker at the breaker box so it shuts off all the power all at once.
I think I'll tell the instructor that just to see if she'll do one of those Tex Avery cartoon eye-popping-out things. A-ooo-gah! Heh heh.
An idle mind is truly the devil's workshop.

Chapter 3 - How to shut down your computer. How in the hell can it take a full chapter for that?
I'd love to see some pictures of the instructor's face it you go with the circuit breaker theory!
