Aviation & Avionics, Thursday September 11, Period 2

As the students were filing in, Murdock was busy writing on the blackboard.

Flight was generally looked upon as an impossibility, and scarcely anyone believed in it until he actually saw it with his own eyes.
~Orville Wright.

To invent an airplane is nothing. To build one is something. But to fly is everything.
~Otto Lilienthal

He turned around and faced the class. "You may have heard of the first name, but probably not so much the second one. Though many people know who the Wright Brothers are, there were many who came before them, paving the way into the skies."

Library [09/11]

When Sam arrived at the library, it was still fairly early, and he'd only managed to get a little caffeine into his blood stream. He started checking in the returned books first, and was surprised to find a children's book in among the rest. He set it aside, intending to flip through it before putting it back where it belonged, and he'd barely had time to yawn and move onto the next book when he heard mewing, and glanced over to find one--no, two gray kittens, a red kitten, and a blue kitten perched on the desk looking at him.

That was when he finally remembered there was supposedly something funky going on with the books. Oops.

[Yes, we still have kitten!books!]

Literature, Class 2: Period 3, Thursday, September 11

"Welcome back," Miss Bennet said, smiling at her students. "Class this week shall cover an author with whom the majority of you expressed some degree of familiarity. There is no need to be alarmed, for those of you who are not; this week contains no surprise exam, I assure you. And in this specific case, 'author' is perhaps an inaccurate term."

"However," she smiled. "Those are only my thoughts. I should like very much to hear what all of you think."
