Wikipedia removes my posting

It took a few days, but the fine folks at wikipedia finally removed my posting for My Papa's Waltz. Having said this, they did not remove it because it is wrong. In fact the they removed it because it was believed to be blatant advertising. It makes my wonder what would have happened if I had written it just a little differently.

My Papa's Waltz

Okay, so if you have looked carefully then you will find the mischievous action I have taken on Wikipedia. Yes, I posted something there; you just have to figure it out. Good luck!

Welcome back to school!

The 2008-2009 school year has now begun. Plesae use this blog to follow some of the things happening in class.

I have posted the link for the SEEP book so that you can download it if you wish.

Good luck!
