My Cyber-Petri Dish.
Yes, it’s time for another peek into my cyber-petri dish. For those who were dozing in biology class when microbiology was being discussed, a petri dish is a glass plate, which is coated with a substance that provides a place for bacteria to grow.
I unwittingly created my cyber-petri dish in January 2004 when I wrote a post about gang violence, which, since that day, has become something akin to a bulletin board where some of the practitioners of the art of gang violence come to share their ideas and opinions. On June 14 of this year, I invited you to take a peek at some of their pearls of wisdom.
Since that time, there have been in excess of sixty more thoughtful entries. I, therefore, invite you once again to have a look at some of these most intellectually stimulating entries. Again, I ask that you please not disturb them by commenting there, as they are best observed without any human interference.
those comments remind me of the string of comment pearls which have now accompanied my now infamous “chef tony” post.
i realize this is a very politically incorrect question to ask but i wonder how many of your commenters on that post are white?
jus’ wonderin…

Golly.
The literacy, the breadth and depth of vocabulary, the grammar, spelling… not to mention the tightly-reasoned logical flow of their arguments. All of it leaves me overwhelmed with their intellectual prowess.
I wonder which one will be the next Nobel Prize (Literature) winner?

I find the comments here disturbing and threatening, but those ‘Chef Tony’ comments kept me laughing all the way through.

I will never again ask “Why do I really need English class?”
