From Round to Square (and back)

For The Emperor's Teacher, scroll down (↓) to "Topics." It's the management book that will rock the world (and break the vase, as you will see). Click or paste the following link for a recent profile of the project: http://magazine.beloit.edu/?story_id=240813&issue_id=240610

A new post appears every day at 12:05* (CDT). There's more, though. Take a look at the right-hand side of the page for over four years of material (2,000 posts and growing) from Seinfeld and country music to every single day of the Chinese lunar calendar...translated. Look here ↓ and explore a little. It will take you all the way down the page...from round to square (and back again).
*Occasionally I will leave a long post up for thirty-six hours, and post a shorter entry at noon the next day.

No worries, though—my name is Lederhosen Pug, and I know the way

I want to start our Bavarian education slowly. Look at the map of Germany. 

Where is Bavaria? South Germany. Yup, down south.

Down south—it's at least one thing that I share with Roll Tide Guy. 

On the other hand, he looks better in Crimson Tide pajamas than lederhosen.

And "down south" in Germany isn't the same thing as "down south" in the United States. Exploring what it means will be my pedagogical (let's call it "pugalogical" this month) task.

Willkommen (welcome)!
