It's Not the Nobel Prize but. . .

The FromMalibuToWaco Award for Excellence goes to Prof Property.

I posed several questions in yesterday’s post and Prof. Property actually answered them. She printed out the questions, brought them to class, and answered them; even the one about the goat. And she didn’t stop there.

She responded to the commentators who questioned her leniency on a student that arrived late by saying,
“Some of you may have noticed we had a prospective student visiting yesterday. I was trying to be on my best behavior. From now on, if I’m standing at the podium and you are not in your seat, you will not be allowed to stay.”

She even joked about the comment that inferred she was a witch.

Although this award is primarily for citing my blog as part of her pre-class preparatory reading, it’s also in recognition of the fact she manages to combine funny, scary, and helpful into one, little, concise package.

Congratulations on being the first recipient of this most coveted award.

I vow to the heavens and all that is holy that I shall never, ever, use a hypothetical involving a goat. Unless the goat has committed a felony. Maybe then. Or if the goat has filed a victim impact statement. Or if the goat is in the jury pool and has qualms about the death penalty. Other than that, never.

Or if Father Puckett has some sort of story with a goat.
