The Tenth Plague

          I slept late and missed PPA, because instructions to miss at least one class in the first week of each semester are apparently hardwired into my brain. Religion & Politics (hereafter referred to as R&P) was as excellent as last time. When classes were over, I met Sean for a quiet evening at PBP. Brian has issued me a cold water challenge, in which one has to jump into a cold body of water or donate $100 to charity, and I intended to do it tonight but fell asleep instead.
          Quotes of the day:

"Don't drive drunk. Unless your father is in the CIA. If you remember one thing from Religion & Politics, remember that." - Prof. Miles
"It comes down to sex. Everything comes down to sex." - Prof. Miles, re: original sin
