Nanci - I knew Koko and Buttercup - I was thinking of the one in the yard (cracker chicken - boy was I way off).

We are so prolific with the posts, I skipped over a bunch. Yikes!

My C in grad school (we won't talk about undergrad) was in Philosophy of Science. I was forced to take it, as I was getting a "doctor of philosophy" degree. I like Ph.D. better. Philosophy and I do not mix. I especially did not mix with the squirt of an instructor. He did not like the fact that I challenged the ideas he was presenting. Aren't you supposed to discuss things in a philosophy class? It was not a positive experience. No alcohol involved for me, just divorce, being stalked, and a hint of stuborness on my part.
