#trilobitetuesday Breaking News! A living trilobi #trilobitetuesday

Breaking News! A living trilobite has been discovered at High Island, Texas! JUST KIDDING!

Because, say it with me kids "Trilobites went extinct over 252 million years ago in the greatest mass extinction in Earth's history-long before the non avian dinosaur extinction".

Got it? Good!

Do not always believe what pops up on the internet!

About to watch first episode of Apple TV's Prehist About to watch first episode of Apple TV's Prehistoric Planet! They are uploading one new episode every night this week. 

The first is called "Coast", and it appears to tell the story of a Tuarangisaurus, a type of plesiosaur or long necked marine reptile commonly compared to the "Lockeness Monster" in body type.

This week in the museum I ran into my favorite Cha This week in the museum I ran into my favorite Channelview High School teacher, Mr. Steven Shoemaker! He taught me 9th and 11th grade English, and actually remembered me (it has been a while)! 

After an excited hug, I thanked him, and was proud to give him an update. Basically, the kid that constantly wrote about dinosaurs in his class is now recognized as a "dinosaur experts" at one of the largest science museums in the country and beyond!

When people think of "great men" they imagine building a pyramid or leading conquering armies. For me greatness is measured by your positive impact on your fellow man. Mr. Shoemaker achieves it every semester. He is a teacher that did more than teacher, he is a philosopher that pushed us to think critically and not just following the crowd. Something I did not fully realize until adulthood.

I also try to mimic these ideals in my own teaching, in case some of you noticed.
