One of our projects this week has been to record observations to relate to social psychology. I was reminded my taste for the ironic:
1. When someone is carrying a baby, every adult that comes up will speak directly to the baby.
2. Folks will sit in "their" seat at church no matter how many people are actually present for the worship service. Woe betide those who dare to usurp someone's rightful seat!
3. Sunday School: everyone has their Bibles open to the passage, but when the teacher asks the question or asks folks to read. . . silence.
4. A student who walks into a darkened classroom will sit in the dark until a teacher/professor comes and turns the light on.
5. It's fun to watch students when they come into a classroom before an exam.

Gentle Sir Philip Sidney, thou knew'st what belong'd to a scholler; thou knew'st what pains, what toil, what travail conduct to perfection.
About Me
- Piers
- West Tennessee, United States
- "I am grown at length to see into the vanity of the world more than ever I did, and now I condemn myself for nothing so much as playing the dolt in print . . . . There is nothing that if a man list he may not wrest or pervert. I cannot forbid any to think villainously, Sed caveat emptor, let the interpreter beware; for none ever heard me make allegories of an idle text."
