First post at last

So this is my first post... I realize that we should have posted a much longer time ago but I quite honestly didn't find anything to write about that was worth posting on a math blog. Now that I have realized that my grade may suffer as a direct result of this blog, I have decided to argue for my grade:
1. I don't believe that this blog is a reflection of my ability in math. While I can see how this blog may be useful to those who have math questions or insights I don't think that we should be graded on that because if anything this blog is merely a reflection of my abilty to write as opposed to doing math.
2. As a technicality, Mr. Flint did say he would post prompts on his own blog for those of us without the "divine inspiration " to write anything. As a result of these lack of prompts I did not feel the need to post on my blog.
3. Mr.Flint has been an excellent teacher this first marking period which has rendered me question-less and thus this blog blank. Also the few questions I have had were too simple to be posted on this blog. That is to say that the couple of questions I have asked required fast answers that friends on AIM or over the phone could provide
4 finally if you disagree with everything I have written so far, realize that this very posting ought to have completed the assignment you gave us and that I took the time to write it (which should be proof of my care of mathematics).

In conclusion I just want to state that any negative tone in this post was not purposeful and that I did not mean to insult anyone especially not Mr.Flint. This post is purely an attempt to protect my grade from unnecessary harm.
