And, yeah...that's the pic. lol
Not sure that pic really encourages the idea of him being the commencement speaker. But what do I know? I'm not particularly a collegiate type.

I think you could find pics of almost any student asleep in class at some point in his or her academic career.

8:00 a.m. class, Introduction to the Visual Arts (slides of artwork shown in a large dark auditorium). You think I didn't fall asleep?

I never slept in class simply out of potential embarrassment - I snore.

However, I've haven't really had a decent night's sleep since getting lectured about the rhythm method in high school by a 90-year-old nun who'd taken a vow of chastity some years before Queen Victoria died.

~Shudder~.

LOL - It was like your own little world at the back of some of those big lecture halls. The professor might as well been on the other side of the country.

I just don't go to class. Most professors' lectures are worthless (at least in my program at my university), so I'd rather stay in bed.

Junior year history class. I actually loved the class and the teacher was awesome, but I slept through a whole class on the industrial revolution. When he was done with his lecture, he actually walked over and gently shook me awake. In my defense, I was sick as a dog and he made me go to the office and call home.

I never liked the industrial revolution. Give me a good old fashioned Tudor scandal any day. Wargod, you have good taste and no need to defend yourself LOL.

I didn't just do this at University. I was in this meeting with high level executives and they were discussing reserve cash flow analysis (prior career by the way) which was not the most exciting topic though very important. Do you think I could stay awake? Even worse, I was supposed to be acting as the facilitator between the different departments and running the meeting. LOL - I thought my career was over.

Russian history at 8AM and I did NOT live on campus. I dropped the class before we got out of the dark ages. I was just taking it for fun anyway and I'm so not a morning person.

On the other hand, though I had no science credits (or any undergrad credits) left due when I started college, I did take Biology 101 just for giggles. I'd heard the teacher was a hoot. It didn't even bother me that this class was also at 8AM, nor did it bother the other 800 students in class. I also helped that the drama department was filming the class all semester and I had the biggest crush on one of the guys doing the lighting. By 6:30AM I was dressed in my 70s best, out of the house and on my way to learn all I didn't know about sex.

Yes, SEX ladies and gentlemen. I'd missed it in grade school when Fr. O'Shaughnessy taught it (to spare the nuns I'm sure). Missed it in high school biology when I was out of school for 8 weeks after having my wisdom teeth out. I had questions!! And who else did I know who would demonstrate the properties of a condom by dressing up in a bright yellow rain coat and had, big black rain boots, holding an umbrella over his head and then bouncing a water-filled condom over his head until it burst. That was the lesson where we learned that condoms don't always work. You have to admit that it was better to learn that way than the alternative. aaaaaack!!

Harrison Ford and girlfriend Calista Flockhart are engaged to be married, sources close to the couple confirm exclusively to PEOPLE.

Ford, 66, surprised Flockhart, 44, with an engagement ring on Valentine's Day weekend while the two were away on a family vacation with son Liam.

Reps for the couple did not return calls.

The couple has been together for seven and a half years. No wedding date has been set yet.

Julie I missed 8 weeks because all 4 teeth were impacted and one was abscessed. The had to take out the abscessed one without any novocaine or gas. After a very long afternoon of surgery, I was taken home. Over the next couple of days bruising appeared from my cheeks all the way down to the tops of my breasts. Then I developed a system-wide infection which made me extremely ill. I missed a lot of school as a kid because of similar infections.

I missed the entire unit on systems of the body, the same unit I missed in 7th grade. The big difference was that in 7th grade, I didn't do the research paper so my grade went from an A to a C- and in high school my teacher said the lowest possible grade I would have gotten was a B+ and that's what she gave me without making me take tests.

Same thing happened in college when I missed nearly an entire semester down with mono. (Nope no boyfriend at the time.) I taught myself the one required course I was taking for one of my majors and I took the final exam. That was it. Thank goodness I didn't miss biology that freshman year, though. :-)

My daughter had her 4 impacted wisdom teeth pulled out one day and while she was in the doctor's recovery room waiting for the drugs to wear off enough for me to get her to the car, the office's phone rang and in her stupor she was reaching for a phone trying to say "Hello" with a mouth full of gauze. LOL Anyway, she was back in school 3 days later.

I must not be understanding this, Tess. Are you saying that by the time you began college, you had earned enough credits for an undergraduate level BA or BS degree? If so, WOW, but how is that even possible? I know some high schools have programs wherein college credits can be earned, but not enough to complete the credit hours necessary to be awarded an undergraduate degree.

DH was just watching an old Malden movie on Friday. I caught a little of it...the man is a great actor.
