Tactics of War [Monday Evening]

[replicarter.livejournal.com]

Before I begin, I would like to say that I'm impressed with the ingenuity of those who were involved in the attack on Friday. I know little of the details, but if anyone would like to give me a full account, I would be happy to award you with extra credit for this course.

Also, Cameron Mitchell? Please see me after class, thank you.

Now, I had a long and boring lecture planned for you today (in which, of course, I expected you to plot my doom, as it would be an excellent sign of success for you as my students learning the tactics of war as one of my long term goals is to ultimately destroy this planet -- *laughter* Oh, I'm just kidding) but last night I saw this film that I vaguely remember seeing from the early 90's and I wish for you to see it and to write down three shockingly irritating tactics of either the locust-like aliens or the ridiculously stupid Americans.

Being both a commander of an invading force and ex-American military, I have GREAT irritation at this film and feel that it is a wonderful learning tool in how NOT to proceed on either (a) invasion or (b) countering such a genocidal attack.

She looks over at Aeryn and smiles.

And Miss Sun, I particularly look forward to your rather inspired point of view.


Now, please, sit quietly and watch.

Eighth puts in Independence Day

Aeryn's just shaking her head. A lot.

Pip looked around to make sure no one was looking as he nervously slid a note to Aeryn.



I know this doesn't in any way make up for my behavior and you'd be comletely within your rights to not forgive me again, ya know, ever, but I'm very sorry for what I did. I had no right to barge in there and do what I did and it was high among the more jackass-type things things that I could do.

Aeryn reads it, and nods. A lot.
