So I'm back in school. The year is now 2004. The last time i updated was in first year. This is my .... fourth? Stupid university. But more classes lead to more amusing professer-type quotes. I'm sure there were some from last year... but alas, I'll have to look them up.

"If you get to page ten and you have something significant to say... FOR GOODNESS SAKE give me page eleven." -Prof. Iain McDougall. Maybe it is only funny in UK accent.. but come on... thats good stuff.

"I hope I'm awake enough to waffle on at 8:30 in the morning." - McDougall again using "waffle" as a verb. That takes talent.

"When you sit down and read your Livy." Completly not out of place, but reminds me of The Wall.... how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

It is Dece... no!.... Feb... no thats over too. From the top. It is March 11, I think, and rather then working on my veryomportant History 1010 essay worth a great deal of mone... no not money, but marks... boy im not good with this language thing anymore. And they call me an Englsh major. HA HA I started that last sentance with "and." BITE ME MR. LYNCH. Any way, this is to be a list of quotes I have recorded in school, rather then doing my work like they expect us to. I hope they seem as briliant to you, the reader as they did when my prof's said them.

Dr. Sue -- "She's all prim and prober and British. What is her accent anyway" - Erinn on Dr. Sue. Little does she know there is NO accent. Unless it is a Sask. accent, and that is surely NOT british. She supposedly "has three English degrees." That one is from Sue herself. She WAS an amazing teacher untill she rejected my final esay proposal. Now Im screwed for my final due like 3 weeks from the time Im writing this, but she was some interesting quotes.

"Nobody ever comes up and kisses me." - while reading romance

"Spankings are goog. I get a lot of those." - Sue revealing her home life... we hope.

"If I give too many A's, the computer's alarm goes off, and security guards come and give me a spanking, and take away my key to the staff washroom... well that's not quite true." - Dr. Sue explaining the low grades in her class

There was one more security guard referance that I failed to note, but it was along the line of she'd like them to come spank her... or something of the sort.

"The plague of men."

"When I criticise the meaning of 'it' in your essay, I expect you to listen. When Henry James does it, it's okay." - Sue setting a double standard

"[Henry] James is the master. You're not." - I can't say i recall teh context of this one

"I wrote that in a simple way. James didn't." - Sue's explaination of her paraphrase.

"Cricumlocutions... it is my word to describe James' style." - Sue likes Henry James

-Woodsworth gave us the Lucy poems, sue gave us the Comma Quotes-

"Thank goodness for the comma." "...love affair with the comma." - this one may hve been about a author or people in class... I don't recall

Mary Freisen (Education Today teacher) expands on Dr. Sue's thoughts.

"Commas are hard. I don't always know when to use a comma." - Mo.Fri. explaining what we did wrong on our first assignment that the Grammer Nazi went to town marking.

BACK TO SUE

"I rather perversly like teaching war poetry."

"Somebody has to eat crow."

"Look! They're happy! NOT FOR LONG" - on the relationship of Sylvia Plath and Mr. Hughs

"She'll throw a spanner into the mix. That's a British expression." - On Plath's rythem in the poem 'Daddy'.

"I won't do section 6 - it's long." Sue on Walt Whitman

"[That's] how the book got wrote." - Sue on the creation of On The Road



Prof. N. Reilly - History... an odd odd man. Very opinionated. Fun to lisen to in rant, but otherwise I dont like Can. Hist. any more :(

"I've been told I can't do that anymore." - on cancelling the subscriptions to the news papers at home when he reads an article that he does not like.

"He wasn't a lapdog like our current Prime Minister. No, I didn't just say that. - On P.M. John... is that right? Deifenbaker

"I'll stop my rant!" - dayly quote on the US

"The only good thing I can say about [Rene] Duplessies is that he did die in 1959"



Just a randome quote from some old movie we watched in the History of Film

"I certainly admire people who do things. The next thing you know thet will be talking about orgasms."
