Who cares.
You need an alcoholic beverage.
Pure ethanol is not what you need.

Putting some more footnotes into my Roman History paper, which I polished up today by taking a trip to the Campus Writing Center. Once I finish that I'll start on my Honors paper, in which I'll compare Dante's Hell to Vergil's Underworld.

I never utilized the Writing Center until my senior year of college. Even then, none of the people there knew anything about technical writing (or business writing), which made it a waste of time

It's basically like Dante's Hell only less mathematical and there's Elysium instead of Limbo.

Ok. Yeah when it's done post it. I just did a project on Dante. Thinking about trying to read the Divine Comedy sometime.

Going to the Writing Center at least once was a requirement for my MultiCultural class. So I took my vengeance by using it for a History paper rather than the paper I had to write for MultiCultural.
But even then, the tutor there didn't find much wrong with my writing. She thought I was an English major.
I'm a page into it out of a goal of 7 to 10. But it's not due till Friday.
I'll be writing another paper of similar length over the weekend, for Roman Philosophy. That one will be about the first book of the Aeneid through the lens of Stoic philosophy.

The Inferno is a quick read, partly because it's so engagingly kickass. The Purgatorio will take longer but you're still riding the momentum from the first canticle. By the time you get to the Paradiso, you've run out of steam and it takes forever to get through it.

Yeah, it was like that when I was doing my Powerpoint. By the time I got to Paradiso I just wanted to finish it. Because everyone knows, Hell is so much more cooler to read about than Heaven.

My teacher's comment on my history paper: "Very good despite the inexplicable, persistent refusal to cite the ancient sources directly or properly." 
The thing is that I took all of my ancient sources from the course-assigned compendium of ancient sources, and he made a comment in class of utilizing the assigned material, so I figured that he wanted us to cite the ancient sources through that rather than through their proper form. Whatever, I still got an A.

Did they make you do citations Chicago style? I think pretty much every major style has methods of citing primary sources from textbooks and stuff.My teacher's comment on my history paper: "Very good despite the inexplicable, persistent refusal to cite the ancient sources directly or properly."
