I loved the Discovery Channel&#8217;s rendition of this song, and to see my favorite comic strip, xkcd, make their own renditioning of it made it even better.
Thank you, Randall

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last night on Survivor, viewers witnessed the stupidest move in Survivor history.  Erik, who has been a target by the remaining members of his tribe for the past few weeks, gave up his immunity at tribal council in order to &#8220;look better for the jury&#8221;.  </p>
<p>I&#8217;m pretty sure that the first page of any Survivor strategy guide clearly states:</p>
<blockquote><p>Never give up immunity.</p></blockquote>
<p>The moment he announced his decision, the jury (who most of them have no room to speak) burst out laughing at him, knowing his fate.  The show hid nothing when the tribe went to vote, showing all of the votes as everyone (save Erik) knew what was coming.</p>
<p>All in all, Erik has shown himself to be entirely way too trusting in his fellow tribe mates to actually deserve to win a game that is all about outwitting.</p>
<p>In other news, ABC is bringing back one of my favorite reality shows that I thought I&#8217;d never see again, The Mole.  June 2 at 10pm will not come soon enough.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the past couple weeks, I have had three classes that utilize <a href='http://angellearning.com/'>ANGEL Learning</a>.  The more that I use it, the more things that I find bug me about it.  Some of these issues may be specific to the way that <a href='http://www.pct.edu/itdl/'>Instructional Technology &#038; Distance Learning</a> at <a href='http://www.pct.edu/'>Penn College</a> or one of the professors use the portal, but since I have no way to verify this, I will assume that the problem lies with ANGEL.</p>
<p>To start this off, there is a calendar that aggregates all assignments and other notices from within all one&#8217;s classes.  The calendars within each class section work perfectly fine in my opinion, but the combined calendar merges everything together, without even the slightest attempt to distinguish between different classes.  See the following calendar for an example, can you tell the difference between the assignments?</p>
<p><a href='http://www.ahotw.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/angel-calendar.png' title='ANGEL Combined Calendar'><img src='http://www.ahotw.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/01/angel-calendar.thumbnail.png' alt='ANGEL Combined Calendar' style='float: left;' /></a></p>
<p>If you mouse over, or click on the listed assignments, no additional information is shown. (In terms of what class calendar the event is from.)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>On the side of every box of Pop Tarts, you will find some very simple instructions for their heated preparation.  These steps, generally all 3 of them, a very simple task for most people.  Let me remind you, in case you have forgotten:</p>
<ol>
<li><span class="bodytext">Remove pastry from pouch.</span></li>
<li><span class="bodytext">Warm pastry in toasting appliance at lowest or lightest heat setting for one heating cycle only.</span></li>
<li><span class="bodytext">Cool briefly before carefully removing pastry from toasting appliance.</span></li>
</ol>
<p>Here are some sources to help you with your Pop Tart heating:</p>
<ul>
<li>http://www.wikihow.com/Prepare-a-Pop-Tart</li>
<li>http://www.walgreens.com/store/product.jsp?CATID=100538&amp;navAction=jump&amp;navCount=1&amp;id=prod346#instructions</li>
</ul>
<p><span class="bodytext">You will note that nowhere in the above steps does it indicate to cook for long periods of time, or, more importantly, to overcook so much that it requires evacuating the building because of the smoke build up in your room.  Most pressing of all questions is, why where you having Pop Tarts at 3:30 in the morning?</span></p>
<p>For the record, I prefer to sleep at that time.</p>

<p>Way back in May of 2002, I was hired at my first job, Genuardi&#8217;s Family Markets.  A lot has changed at that store and in my life since then, but for some reason, I stayed with it.  By &#8217;staying with it,&#8217; I mean that I worked only once in a while, since leaving for college, just for pocket change.  So, to show their appreciation for all that I&#8217;ve done (?), they have given me a 5 year award.</p>
