March Madness is coming closer to the end. I didn't expect Duke to lose to LSU, but other than for Bradley and George Mason (big surprises) making it as far as they have done, things are going as I thought they would. So I spend a lot of time watching college basketball. When it comes to students attending KU, it's quite common. I still think Connecticut will win, though UCLA is playing very well right now. My Final Four at this moment are Texas, UCLA, UConn and Villanova. I probably will be wrong. Just what I am thinking right now.
The College Board still can't get it done right again. I guess "SAT" stands for Sucking (at) Administrating Tests. Yes, the acronym isn't totally correct, but it will work for now. I guess the high school seniors who took it in October will have to go through the nightmare again. What fun it must be to be an admissions officer at a colege right now...or the company responsible for grading the SATs. How hard is it to grade Scantron tests?
According to the current Bush administration, there is no conclusive evidence that global warming exists. But there is quite a bit of evidence to show that global warming it does exist and humans aren't helping. Like the "magically" disappearing glaciers. Of course, glaciers go through cycles, but this is a little too much. I guess Glacier National Park will have to be renamed one of these days...
The DMV gives you a little booklet that tells the rules of the road. Like what a certain sign means and how to make turns. Apparently, people are so confused when making left turns, the Department of Transportation is considering new guidelines on making this process easier to understand. I'm not sure how it can be made any easier. Let the confusion begin...
Obvious news. Playing your music so loud that other people can hear it is an annoying thing when at work. It's even worse if you sing the song out loud. Other obvious things mentioned in the article:
1. It makes for a bad office environment
2. It might be a safety hazard, especially if one works in a factory with dangerous machinery like forklifts
3. It's distracting to others
Lawyers behaving badly in Australia and here in the United States. One is a plagiarizing magistrate and the other was indicted on charges of bankruptcy fraud, child pornography, and obstruction of justice.
That's all for now.
