Sociology Survey

Last night Jeremiah sat down to write his sociology survey and reported happily that he had a more than adequate number of responses. He was also delighted with everyone's explanations as to why they made the choices they did. There was quite a variety, but the theme was fairly consistent--namely that it was, in brief, a stupid survey. Interestingly it amped up his enthusiasm for the assignment and the work he's turning in tonight (which includes a brightly colored pie chart as well as a three page essay and an extensive tally sheet) is among some of the best I've seen from him. Considering the teacher gave them only a week to compile all this information and the kid is carrying a full-load of classes and packing in thirty hours a week at work, I'd say he did pretty well.

So I want to thank all you who helped with this assignment. I didn't even know some of you had responded until he asked me who a couple of you were. In an interesting way, it was very much like introducing you all to him. Whether he knows it or not, he got a good cross section of reactions.

I'm sure you're wondering about the results of all your hard work, so rest assured that I will post them on here as soon as I know something.


PS. A few days ago I received a Bald Faced Liar Creative Writer's blog award from Ray Veen. This award came with important stipulations. I'll post those tomorrow. First I've got to manufacture some facts about myself.
