Comet 'Bites the Dust' Around Dead Star

Today's Flash

There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed. -
Ernest Hemingway



And a word carries far--very far--deals destruction through time as the bullets go flying through space. -Joseph Conrad



Words are too powerful and too personal, and once printed or posted, too permanent! (Sorry for the alliteration) As much as I love technology, I have avoided blogs. Maybe I am more afraid of what you will see rather than what I will say. Hopefully this exercise in blogging will help me be less taciturn and more talky.



My intent for this blog topic will be Ed Tech and teacher sites of interest.


...speaking of words- take a look at one of my favorite word websites- Visuwords, a visual graphical dictionary. The kids love it!


Whew! I am exhausted. That's it for today!
