Paper One

Thunder! Rain! Drama!

The first major rain of the fall always energizes me as I am drenched by the peaceful waterfall, down, down from the stream of the sky. It's traditional for me to run around and dance like a madperson in the rain. Because it is Milwaukee, the glorious storm is periodically interrupted by protesting car alarms who don't recognize the gloriousness that is lightning. Cars aren't very intelligent.  

Not like my students! (How's that for a segue?) They all turned in their first papers today. I now have a stack of forty papers crying out for my extensive (and obviously wise) comments. I'm sure they'd all be happier if I drew a smiley face on the title page, gave them an A, and handed them back. The university doesn't pay me to make them happy.

Those are the random thoughts for the day.
May rain soon head your way.
Crime doesn't pay.
Wordplay?
