I'm a professor at Eastern Michigan University in Ypsilanti. Most of my teaching and scholarship focuses on the connections between writing and technology. Lately I have been teaching and reading and writing about AI, just like many folks in writing studies.
More than you probably want to know.
I've been blogging since 2004. In the old days, I posted a lot more often, but most of those early posts were things I'm more likely to post nowadays on Facebook, Substack, and/or Instagram.
I used to run a community blog site called EMUTalk.org. Nowadays, EMUTalk is a Facebook group.
Two priests and a rabbi were discussing what portion of the weekly collection they kept for themselves. The first priest explained that he drew a circle on the ground, stepped a few paces back and pitched the money towards the circle. What landed in the circle he kept and what landed outside the circle god kept.
The second priest claimed that his method was almost the same, except that what landed outside the circle went to the priest and the money that landed inside the circle god kept.
The rabbi said, “I’ve got you both beat. I throw the money into the air and what god wants, god takes.”
