Show us what you're working on right now.

The infamous unit plan. And why is it that every time I have to work on one of these 10 page monstrosities, the weather all of a sudden gets really warm and sunny? It happened right about this time two years ago when I wrote my first one and it's doing it again ~~now~~ starting tomorrow. Although (hopefully) this time I won't be forced to strip down to boxers and a tank top to try and stay cool or deal with my computer continually overheating.

Yet another reason to love XKCD

Show us something green!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I'm wearing my one green (school-appropriate) dress shirt. I hope you all have a great St. Patty's Day, drink lots of stuff (green beer or otherwise), and don't get pinched.

Show us a sign.

I wish I could say I took this picture but I did see a similar sign the last time I was in England. I think they need to have these in the US.

On a semi-related note: are the damn Culture, Entertainment, Music, etc. QotD's ever going to change again? 'Cause it's been the current ones for almost a week now.

Would you like some manga?

I was getting ready to shut everything down on my computer and I happened to scroll down to the bottom of my Vox and came across an ad for Cliff Notes. Except, it wasn't any ordinary ad for Cliff Notes. It was an ad for Shakespeare: The Manga Edition.

So far they have "Hamlet", "Romeo & Juliet", "Macbeth", and "Julius Caesar" available. I mean, I'm all for getting kids to read but manga? Wow. Wasn't really expecting Shakespeare to show up in that form. Although it kind of makes sense. They're plays that are meant to be watched not read so putting them in comic book/manga form seems like a logical step. And who knows? Maybe they really will get kids more interested in Shakespeare.

One of the most awesome shirts ever.

Can be purchased here. If I had the money, I'd probably buy it.

I love their little blurb about the shirt on the main page:

The Ironic Sans blog brings you clothing with a name tag that says, "Hello, my name is John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt." Then when you meet someone wearing the same shirt, you can shout, "Hey! His name is my name, too!"

Da da da da da da da.

I'd say something snarky about how it's no longer the music building and how it's kind of an ugly building but I'm distracted by the nice weather in the picture. I wish it looked like that outside right now.

Vox Hunt: Dear Santa

Show us what you hope Santa brings you.

A 60 GB Zen Vision W. Although I've been looking at their website today and they don't seem to have any in stock (not even the 30 GB ones). There's a 60 GB slim version up on Amazon.com but I'm not sure if it's real or not. I think I'll be calling their customer service number to see if they still sell them. If it turns out they've stopped selling them, I think I'll get an 80 GB Zune instead.

Jingle bells, Batman smells

I was listening to the Barenaked Ladies' version of "Jingle Bells" (hear below) and in it they sing the version you always sung as kid - you know, "Jingle bells/Batman smells/Robin laid an egg/Batmobile lost a wheel and Joker got away". While they were singing that bit I remembered that a have a shirt from Threadless.com about the last line:
