Computers have a secret life that you should know about. How do I know? I am a computer science teacher in a small midwestern college. Before I began teaching, I was a practitioner (programmer, analyst, etc.) from my very early years. Computers are fun, but sneaky. This blog may also get comments about religion, politics, and other subjects, as I feel the urge.

Despicable them.
I am an alumni of a college in the same state where they had a lot of recent tornadoes. I also worked there for a long time. As an alumni, I get letters asking for money quite frequently. They are generally routine, and I just toss them. But recently, I got a letter from them that was out of the ordinary. Even though the campus was not close to any tornado or tornado damage, they somehow tried to tap into sympathy for tornado victims to encourage donations to the school. What crap. That's low, even for them. Enrollment there is down and faculty are being laid off. Well deserved.

Well, as a fellow alum I should watch my mail for that one.
