quote of the day

"this class is all about balls."

i said it. i knew before i said it i probably shouldn't be saying it. i sort of tried to stop myself as the words were escaping my lips, but the comedic value was too overpowering. to a room of 12-year-olds i said "this class is all about balls." sure, i may be doing demonstrations on kinetic and potential energy using tennis balls and duckpin bowling balls, but my goodness. i tried to balance my vulgarity by showing them how to determine the square root of a number by hand, but i highly doubt an algorithm erased the memory of their science teacher saying "balls."
