Class was much better than I expected.  After class I hung out in the student lounge at H St as usual.  I thought I'd try out the typewriter, but the only paper I could find had been xerox copied on.  I also discovered that the typewriter only had a correction tape and no ink.  So I used my pen to express Indiana Pacers star Ron Artest's pain while being squeezed through the media-press.
[I don't know much about Ron Artest but Corcoran College writing professor, Casey Smith does.  No coincidence, Casey is from Indiana like the Pacers.  "[Artest is] one of the best players on both ends of the floor," said Smith.]
