Hello, Zappo

You must be terribly disappointed when you saw the first response to this as my nickname of you. 
This is a funny article. I've also wondered the applicable principles of studying cells and parsing sentences. But I know that if I ever shrink down into really small Jodan, I'll hide in the vacuole. I think. I don't remember very much

You know that thing about parenthetical documentation? I learned that yesterday when I was supposed to be eating lunch. My sadist of an english teacher decided we need to have writing conferences. And they're during lunch, depriving us of the nourishment we need to thrive.
But seriously, when will we ever use that grammar stuff in real life?
PB&J for beginners sounds good to me. Where can I sign up?

lol
actually, Jodan...when I saw the subject line, I said to myself "hey! Cool! Somebody replied!" No disappointment involved--just so long as you love me
Alas, PB & J making isn't a real class...which is sad, I know...I'd also like to take toaster use for dummies...hehe

At my cousin's college one of the freshmen put popcorn in the microwave and set it for 30 minutes. As a result, all freshmen must now take "Microwave Basics".
Run while you still can.

Congratulations DZ! Your column is delightful. I remember those days of confusion caught between making personal choices and trusting in those who decide what we need to know. It's tuff, but hang in there. There's lots more stuff to learn.
The fact that some of it seems 'useless' is because you are already making your own choices about what you need to know. Next year at college, you'll have even more choices, just like the chemistry freaks who won't have to study any of that dumb old literature and writing crap anymore and can concentrate on the testy tubies.
Keep that smile on your face as you are writing and people will always enjoy your point of view, especially when they can identify with your subject matter. Well done!
peace

Hey guys
Position in <./>ThePost</.> signifies nothing except possibly length of service contributing. More often than not it is us using a template from a previous week - we don't write the Front Page from scratch every week or we'd never get published - and also fitting items in as we edit them. 
So, wherever you appear, you are all equally valued.

If we, as the editors, don't set any store by the positioning of the various articles within <./>ThePost</.>, it's not our fault if others see some sort of prioritising.

Shazz...how picky are you as to how structured my articles are? Cuz i've got a fairly funny one...but there's absolutely NO point to it whatsoever...just a chance for me to be silly I still think it's funny readin', tho!
