Criminal Justice, Class 14
[OOC: If people who aren't in the class want to evaluate The Tick, I have no clue how you'd go about doing so. That's not a hint. Really. The more people who take it, the worse, not the better! Seriously. Don't do it. I wonder if they worked through that code. Class Info Link.]
*Tick is standing at the podium. He looks pretty chipper, but with a lot on his mind. Not in a bad way, just in a busy way.*
Hello, class! We have a whole bunch of things to discuss today, so let's get right to it!
First, I will be holding irregular office hours from now on. My office is the World, and my hours are When Destiny Calls Me. If you need to see me, you'll find me. Or I'll find you! Someone will be found by someone and then someone will be helped! But I'll be available every day, is the point.
Second, I understand that some people spent some time in a certain locker recently. Let me know if you missed class due to a recent locker incident and your absence will be excused.
Third, if you haven't had a chance, please fill out the evaluation form I provided on Tuesday. There's something a little wierd going on with that, though. I have nine evaluations so far, and there were only five people in class on Tuesday. That doesn't seem to jive. But if you haven't done it yet, please fill one outbecause they're fun!.
Fourth, if you haven't seen, the list of grades through the first test is still on the wall.
Fifth is the matter of your first class project. Several of you requested this last week, so I have thrown together a little test of wits, strategy, and crime fighting knowledge! Last Thursday, the class seemed unanimous in the belief that the Road Runner was a criminal who has maliciously taunted Wile E. Coyote into injury time and again. On Sunday, November 6th, we will be spending some time in the school's Danger Shop. It will be outfitted to resemble the American Southwest, the desert region that is home to the fugitive Road Runner. Using your wits, the natural holographic surroundings, and any three items from the ACME Catalog that Rory has brought in, you will try to apprehend this holographic criminal. Your projects will be graded based on creativity and - to a smaller degree - if your plan succeeds in capturing the criminal. Blueprints detailing your plan are due one week from today. You may work alone or in groups of two. The tests will be run on a Sunday due to scheduling conflicts. Since it's a weekend, you don't have to attend the Danger Shop session, but I think it would be worth your time. I mean, it's a big hologram projector thingy! How keen is that? If you don't attend, you will find out how your project did on the following Tuesday, or whenever somebody from class tells you.
If you have any questions about this project, please ask me after class or during my office hours.
And since we've already talked about a lot today, our discussion question will be pretty light. How do you feel about relatively minor crimes like littering and jaywalking? Should offenders of these crimes be fined? Jailed? Or should we work on the honor system, assuming (and maybe taking time to make sure that this is indeed true) that everyone knows that littering is harmful to the environment and jaywalking is potentially harmful to yourself and the car that's about to hit you, and, egads, then you're just punishing yourself in the long run? What are your thoughts?

I'm so mean to poor Rory. Hee.]
Re: Catalog over here!
I suspect that nobody around here has more fun torturing their character than you. It's good stuff, though. :)]
Re: Catalog over here!
And I think that may be true. I'm giving her a full meltdown this afternoon. Whee! And inversely, as Becky, I get to make other characters vastly uncomfortable. Hooray!]
Re: Catalog over here!
You are the most fun kind of twisted.]
