In college I took an 8:30am govt course with the intention of never going to it. The prof made 6 (took the top 5) in-class 5 question quizzes worth 25% of the final grade.

The 20 of us would write it down and hand it in the next day. Easy 10% taken care of. Most people in the class didn't turn anything in.

And they were paying for the course, no less.

Participation (of which in-class quizzes are a proxy) is 1/16th of the course grade in all courses I teach.

Grerings from The Christmas Tree Shop in Cherry Hill. Kitchen cleaning and setup went incredibly well - net loss was a single martini glass, which we originally bought here for $1.99.

Arrived to apartment noonish and spent the better part of five-plus hours opening and breaking down boxes, some of which had been sitting in her closet for over a year. Furniture is going in next weekend...too bad it's not there now, as I really like the place she picked.

I can't believe what I just saw (last play of Titans game).

Good Evening Box!

Hope you are all very well this evening!

Tonight I am by myself. My 3 adult children have left to return to their respective homes (2 in Washington DC and one back to college in Columbus). My wife has also left to visit her sister for 2 nights since she did not see her this Thanksgiving for the first time in 20 years. So I have a house to myself as well as 3 labs. Very quiet tonight after a great thanksgiving.

Hope everyone had as good a holiday. Back to work tomorrow and on the road again next week.

Obligatory poop reference: first :rolleyes: in the new apartment goes to yours truly.

Fascinating thread in the main Forum on LK v. GB's legacy at CO. I thought the Box's own Steph3n was spot on. I personally think that LK had a really tough hand to play when he came on, and CO's "exceptionalism" came at a pretty high price which at some point became hard to justify as a "balance sheet matter". YMMV
