    What About Michael Jackson?!?

    Michael Jackson has had a great influence in my life ever since I started listening to his songs back in the '90s. I am truly amazed and shocked by this man. I know how most of people judge him by his looks and his trial history, but I know there's much more humanity in this man that probably exceeds our own levels.

    And when they say he's a legend, I just know HE IS. I'd say he's a legend because of his professionalism and dedication, his lyrics, shows, choreography, and music is just unmatched. And I'm yet to see such a great talent in any other artist on the scene today.

    Also, it's great to know about his rather unknown songs. Songs like "Smile", "Little Suzy", "Childhood", and many others. Those songs are truly inspirational to every human being. Especially when you notice the special treatment Michael has given them. He's so convincing you know the words are coming out of love from his heart, not out of the greed for money.

    I'm not saying he's the perfect man. He has done some mistakes, but then again, who doesn't?! The very special and delicate details of his life displayed by the media are nothing - to me- more than a cheap distortion to the image of a great man, a great person, and last of all a wonderful human. Those details are his own damn business, and I don't have to say anything about them. What matters to me, are the actions. He has a history full of donations and aid to charity organizations, and he spent lots of money into his "Heal the World" project. Actually, it's more than satisfying to know that he has dedicated some of his greatest songs to the earth and to the people all around the world. Something that has nearly disappeared from today's albums.

    So, what about Michael Jackson?? I LOVE MICHAEL JACKSON!!

    How Low Can You Go?!

    Syrian Higher Education is breaking the "lowness" barrier each day. A college professor is asking students to re-write her lectures on MS Word as a semester project for her course "Advanced Mathematics"!!! She's asking the students to use a specific font type and size or she'd reject the whole project! WoW!!

    Another professor also rejected projects from students ONLY because they didn't write all the Gammas in uppercase.. WTH?!?!

    I feel it's really necessary to say to both of them: "GET A LIFE GODDAMN IT!!"

    And I can't help but to wonder; is this really a course for "Advanced Mathematics"???? Or is it a course for dumb people to get dumber?

    And you guys say math isn't fun!!!!!!!

    Ahhh the irony..
