ode to adopted grampie

while no grandparents live with me, today's post is in honor of grandpa b, my adopted grandpa at my second home - campus.
here is an email after we were informed that icemageddon canceled class today:

"It's a shame how mother nature takes over the capacity of Machiavellian power and control-oriented faculty like myself to control the lives of students!! (tee-hee). Stay warm!!! "

kudos to the the use of "tee-hee" and power-wielding instincts. statements like these makes me feel like i'm your biological grandchild.
