Thing is, I think too many kids in many classes your son might be in would be the brash, boisterous type to announce that they're willing to fight anybody who comes into the class intent on harm, only to turn out to be the worst sniveling wimp, or the one who winds up getting others hurt with their brashness. The prof. sounds like a total lunatic. Hope his teaching winds up being a little more realistic than his opening remarks.Katihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18312698112377656801noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3294578188079385391.post-38753801892914311242007-09-07T12:54:00.000-04:002007-09-07T12:54:00.000-04:00Boy seriously weird... guess it's normal if he is ...Boy seriously weird... guess it's normal if he is a homeland security lover.

Especially the "I'm a runner" PRICELESS! And the sandals? Hahaha - I had a professor who didn't even wear shoes - well flip flops but he didn't wear them in class.
