I’ve read enough of your posts to know that you do indeed learn from each and ever one of those ‘fall flat on your face’ moments :) . I can’t agree more with Edenvale, it’s not the loot, it’s not the gold, it’s the fun and thus you win :)

“Quicksand. You’re playing and you think everything is going fine, but then one thing goes wrong and another and another and you try to fight back, but the harder you fight, the deeper you sink. ‘Til you can’t move, can’t breathe, cause you’re in over your head. Like quicksand.”

More the a few times, we’ve taken a 10 minute break to shake it off. post your funniest youtube video in vent chat or the craziest photo you’ve seen in your net surfing. I think it reminds the players why your there. It’s not the loot, its not the gold, its the fun! Raiding is challenging and fun. When its not challenging, it’s not fun and vice versa.

I told her I couldn’t think of a single film, but to have her student contrast Dead Poet’s Society and 187 to see how differently teachers are handled, so it was quite synchronous to see this pop up around the same time. Thanks for the memories.

I was an education student in college when it came out, and I wanted to BE that teacher who emphasized individuality and used innovative methods, albeit in physics. (Student teaching was a wake-up call . . .) Besides, I love poetry. :)

I should show that movie to my teenagers . . .

Best of luck vanquishing your Jabberwocky – I think I heard it whimpering in fear of your yawp.
