Hello pretty people!
So maybe this here “challenge” will be ridiculously easy for you all, or maybe it will take years for the correct answer to be guessed…
…but the simple fact is that I have just graded 300 hunks of paper (one essay test and one term paper from each of my 150 students) over the course of seven long days, and now everything is a bit hazy and swirly…
…so, dagnabbit, I demand now to reward myself for all that focus by finally finding an excuse to use a photo I took a few months back in Boston which I think is pretty.
There’s no story that goes with this photo… just a challenge. And the challenge is this: What is this photo of?
First Prize goes to the first correct respondent, and First Prize Part Two goes to the most creative (yet student-appropriate) interpretation!
Take it away, pumpkins.

December 7, 2010 at 1:06 pmWhen I first looked at this picture on your homepage, it took my quite a while to figure it out. At first, i thought it was a shiny diamond, and when I glanced at the photo once more, I literally slapped myself for being so dense! Of Course it’s the headlight of a black car. lol :P

November 7, 2010 at 10:45 pmMs.Marshall, I was just wondering if you really think it would take anyone that much time to figure this out. It’s obviously the headlight on a car. Unless I’m wrong then we’ll just forget I said anything at all about this. I’m going to not make a fool of myself and go any farther with this topic.

November 7, 2010 at 3:33 pmIt is obviously a head light of a car if not then it’s a bat. Use common sense!
