Welcome to the world of Blogging

Well, if you have gotten this far, you are ON THE WWW! You now have the ability to share your thoughts on absolutely anything with the whole world. Keep up with this - just entering new blog entries is good practice for computing in general...as you will see, not every post has to be a masterpiece. For a 5-point-bonus on your most recent test grade, send me an e-mail at: professorpfunk@gmail.com and include a link to your personal blog. Only those who follow the instructions exactly will get the extra credit. To send the link, simply select the address of your blog in the top of Internet Explorer, and copy, then paste it into the body of your e-mail. You must log in to your internet e-mail account - there is no mail client configured on the school computers, so feel free to open up multiple Internet Explorer windows to get the job done. Good Luck.

Sitting Room Only

rant...........

This morning, some guy on the train insists on standing right in front of the door - EVEN THOUGH there were OPEN SEATS! I hate that! Sit the hell down -- everytime the conductor came through, he had to move around, swinging his bag.....argh! Then, when we got to some of the more popular center city stops, he stood there blocking people trying to get out of their seats, fouling up the process of getting off for the rest of the people - just being an overall pain in the ass.

SEPTA - if there are open seats, make people SIT DOWN. Standing is a nuisance and a hazzard - there is no reason for a person to stand when seats are available.

P.S. Put more cars on the damn train so that there are ALWAYS seats available. Twice this week, my train has been standing room only - once WAY beyond capacity. Get it right - I am paying for a seat (and a pretty good premium at that), you have a responsibility to make sure there are enough seats for all the riders.
