Somebody recently commented that students are getting smarter. Was that David Bellamy? I just discovered that this is true. I asked the students why Spanish was considered a Romance language and the majority knew that it was derived from Latin and Latin was the language of the Roman Empire.
When I last asked this question back in 2005, or something like that, the most popular response was, “Because it is such a romantic language!” and “Because Latino people are good at romance. When I traveled to Mexico last year, Mexicans flirted with all of the girls.”
So yes, it gets better.
Yes, it was I.

?? Did I change something that requires my posts to be moderated? I just got a new computer, and I hope I did not change my email address. The icon looks the same.

Did any of your comments not post? I’m not seeing anything of yours in the Spam box.

The first post above did not show up in the list of recent comments for five minutes or so. I don’t know why. Things seem OK now.

I’ve had that issue too. Before my comments would post instantly. Now they take 5- 10 minutes to post. It’s not a problem or anything…..certainly, the world can wait 10 minutes to read my brilliant commentary. 😉 😉 😉 But it’s different than how it was before.

This actually happens to posts, too. I’d publish a post but it would not appear for 5-10 minutes. I need to visit the WordPress forum to see if other people are having this issue.

I didn’t change anything or touch the settings.
