THE RUBIK'S CUBE

Being unsure of what to write, but sure I must write something...

On Friday I will have substituted at Dos Pueblos for four days this week. Four days! The secretary, Terry Tripp, is wonderful to me--she gives me work all the time.

At DP I am sometimes referred to as the "Cube Guy" or, "Mr. Cube" or, "Rubik's Cube man" because I am obsessed with the Rubik's Cube and I practice it all the time. At school.

Now, this is not to say that I let the kids do whatever they want while I sit in the corner working the cube. I take my job very seriously and make sure that I follow the teacher's instructions to the best of my ability. And THEN I practice my Rubik's Cube. I've gone from about 1min 45 sec to about 1:07 now. My best time is :46 seconds.

Phil, that's amazing. Seriously, I always give up on stuff like that. get distracted. sorry it took me a while to return your call (I really did appreciate you calling). I just had about 500 papers this week. This afternoon, I'm going to take a nice long nap.

I hope that conference is interesting and thought-provoking. I'll be thinking of you Vineyardites down south.
