People actually *read * this crap? Rants, monologues, snippets, observations, and whatever else oozes out of my brain at odd hours. Friday, July 24, 2009. To wit: I was looking up a few articles online to get more info on the numerous ethics complaints that have been filed against Sarah Palin over the past months. Predictably, the chattering classes and the blogosphere are all atwitter over the bona fides. I'm just sayin'.). Anyhoo, I stumbled across a recent column. Amid all the babble about Sarah Palin...

People actually *read * this crap?: University as career factory?
http://voltaire2006.blogspot.com/2009/08/university-as-career-factory.html
People actually *read * this crap? Rants, monologues, snippets, observations, and whatever else oozes out of my brain at odd hours. Monday, August 17, 2009. University as career factory? I read an interesting post. The other day on Howard Bernstein's excellent blog, Medium Close Up. I agree with some of his points but I think he's fallen into a bit of a logic trap. Like many people, he believes that if one studies something in university, they should and must go on to a career in that area. With respect,...

I'm Llewell 'n' You?: August 2005
http://imllewellnyou.blogspot.com/2005_08_01_archive.html
I'm Llewell 'n' You? Tuesday, August 30, 2005. I've got a new nick name. Yup, it's "African Woman." When I first arrived in Accra, I'd see old white ladies on the street in traditional Ghanaian garb and I'd secretly laugh to myself that they probably came here when they were my age and got stuck. I'd look at them with a critical eye, thinking that Ghanaians probably thought they were a bit presumptious to be galavanting around in their culture's wardrobe. She also has a sewing machine set up in the court...

I'm Llewell 'n' You?: December 2005
http://imllewellnyou.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
I'm Llewell 'n' You? Thursday, December 22, 2005. I've taken up tennis again. Not that I really left it anywhere, except in Toronto winters. You'd think after years of tennis camp with obnoxious eight year old blonde girls named Holly and other girls with names one should only call Christmas ornaments, I'd be quite good. But I'm average. Seems that sporadic playing does nothing for one's game. At least, not mine. It's Al Fresco. They have a pool and two tennis courts and a hand ball wall. I remove the lo...

I'm Llewell 'n' You? Wednesday, November 30, 2005. Four nights at the Black Star Hotel. Hopped on a tro tro last Thursday night. And boy oh boy it was quite the sight. Sat beside some chickens. That bawked the entire flight. Arrived in Bolgatanga at 9. This next part won't rhyme. Got off the tro and into a taxi. Told the man I must go and relax-y. He took me a hotel nearby. Called the Black Star and why? A black star sits in the flag of Ghana. To represent the peeps whose plant is the banana. Which looke...

I'm Llewell 'n' You? Thursday, May 26, 2005. White guys in ties. It all looks the same. He gazes on at. Couples on the grass. They don't know what they have. He came from far away. Only two days ago. Now he must start over. Where he isn't 'in the know'. His parents are so proud. And he's here for the same reasons. Was good enough to leave them. Posted by Janey Llewellin at 5:42 PM.
