AP: It's educational, too.

So, I know that my blog isn't the fave among our readers (believe me, we've got stats on these things. And they're announced at staff meetings. Not embarrassing at all.)

Anyway, because of this, I've gotta take my props where I can. One of my good friends teaches in Boston, and this is a snippet of a Gchat we had the other day:

(Teacher friend): hey
funny little tidbit for you:
me: oh yeah?
(Teacher friend): i'm teaching an intro to mass media class this semester,
and thursday, we covered the "magazine" chapter
so i asked them to all bring in magazines that they read
and one of the girls brought in AP
and i was like, "oh, one of my friends is an editor there!" and i showed her your name and she was like, "wow, that's soooo cool!"
so i'm pretty sure you just made me look cooler in front of my students

So there ya go. AP: Making teachers look cooler since 1985.
