CTN is NOT a paper.
And I state, specifically, what a student may use as a reference.
Having said that, if they DON'T cite something that they are directly quoting... oooh, not good.
I once had a freshman advisee who lost an honor code case because the student didn't cite Wiki.

Good morning!!

Why is he on hiatus?

I think he's actually trying to get done with some big, super-duper, high-tech, secret project.

He could tell us, but then he would have to kill us. I on the other hand went and picked up fenders for my '68 Firebird.

No, but that doesn't make Wiki any less shitty.

Thad made the Rams 53-man roster. Woooo!

Toughest NCAA football game to predict: how about Vanderbilt vs. Northwestern?

Mr Hilter...okay. I'm not too sure I like these 'boncentration bamps'.

We need to start a thread re strange things heard and seen @ Duke sporting events. Cathy and I are being entertained by a lady 2 rows back. "you're a phoenix not a chicken" is the early favorite.

Northwestern by a 23-21 score

Have I ever told you that I really don't like the tar heels?

ETA - Not sure how I got the same post to be entered twice. PWing at it's best.

Note that once one mentions Hitler, the thread stops.
That would mean an END to LTE 2.0!!

The thread doesn't stop, the person who referenced Hitler or the Nazis just automatically loses the argument by disqualification.

That is the interpretation I have always understood. I just couldn't explain it properly.

Good morning!!

Self-imposed. Very, very busy with work.

I had to disapprove a post of Jason's OY. He almost gave the kiss of death to LSU. I disapproved it and asked him to retract it. Unfortunately, he was offline and I didn't have his phone number to call him.

She was hysterical! Lawgrad91 made a list of the funny things this woman said, but "You're a Phoenix, not a chicken" will go down as the theme of tonight's football game.

It wouldn't be the first time someone disapproved him OY. ;)

I also liked the "Turn Catholic! Hail Mary!" when we were up by 14 and had the ball deep in their territory with just a few minutes left.

Was there something that prompted this? Was there a mascot at the game, and the mascot looked like a chicken? I wasn't at the game.

Was it worse than the former "Fighting Christian" mascot:

The Firebird emblem is oft referred to as a FireChikin. It looks like a Firebird to me.

There was a mascot at the game, and it looked like a generic bird to me.

My dad was a minister, and my husband is one. Unfortunately the nickname "Fighting Christians" is no figment of anyone's imagination. But the old mascot was bad.

I don't remember what prompted the chicken analogy at the game.

Note to clients: It is NOT a good idea to cry to your attorney that you are too broke to afford a telephone, but then post pictures from your camera phone on Facebook of your fabulous time from your club level seats at the ECU football game.

Just sayin' . . .
