Hic Sunt Dracones (Latin for 'Here there be dragons'). This is my real life, folks. I couldn't make this up if I tried. This blog is not for everyone. Readers are advised to travel onward if they lack a sense of humor, have an aversion to profanity, or are unable or unwilling to think for themselves. In other words, this is not the place for the Kool-Aid drinkers.

Handy Tip
Okay. Not sure how many of you will find this of import, but here's a handy tip: if you are a University student whose University library has an agreement allowing you to access indecis such as EBSCOHost, do not, repeat DO NOT add 68 items to a folder for later viewing and attempt to email them to yourself via the proxy server. This will cause your email inbox to become as clogged as rest area toilet during Spring Break. Apparently, the good folks at EBSCO email you each item singly...not in even groups of two or three. It has taken my email three days to load all of them. It just so happens I thought this would actually save me some time, allowing me to peruse the articles at my leisure in preparation for a massive project for class. Instead, I am being forced to wait for these articles and abstracts to sloooooooowwwwwllllllllyyyyy arrive in my inbox. Uh huh. Progress? I don't think so.
