I wish I hadn't spaced the colloquium, and perhaps my time tonight would've been better spent contributing to the Wiki; But reading the previous message, I have to wonder-what's Freudian about TMCS? Is it the fact that it stands for Senior Chief Torpedoman (naval rating)? Or maybe Tapioca Mango Choco Shake?
How about more TMCS action? Here we go! Use TMCS in a sentence. Use it in a paragraph. Use it to write TV show plots, or hiphop lyrics. News headlines and comic book hero names work, too. Whatever you like. Here's a paragraph:
Take My Comments Seriously. They Make Culture Shine. Therefore, My Clients Say That Most Commonly, Several Typical Major Cliches Significantly Trap Many Conscientious Students. They May Come Subtly, Taking Mental Custody So That More Coherent Strategies Tire Morbidly Callow. So This Must Completely Stop! They Must Clearly Sense That Most Cliches Stifle Their Mental Cleverness. Such Tenderly Maturing Creative Symphonies Thrown Miles Curtainside! Students' Trials, Mental Challenges Solidify Their Maximum Capacities, Showing Their Masterful Compositions' Strengths. That's My Candid Stance.
Disclaimer: Take
none of the following seriously-
Tomato, Mozarrella Cheese and Salami.
Torch Monkeys Calculate Storms.
Teach Me Correct Spelling!
The Masked Caduceus Strikes! (Masked Cobra sounds cooler, actually).
Theater Managers Can't Skate.
Toronto Mayor Climbs Statue.
Tainted Marvin's Coke Stash.
Tie My Chirping Shoe!
Typical Mormon Chick: Splendid. (No I don't call girls "Chicks," but the words came together nicely).
Tickle Me Charles Schultz (not as successful as Tickle Me Elmo, I imagine)
Terrorists Mob Cardboard Silhouettes
Take More Clonopin, Steve.
Tropical Morpheus Can Scat.
Tore My Cheap Suit.
Texas Mafia Changes Stripes.
Taser More College Students!
Thank Mother's Cloister Stuffing!
Teeth Make Candy Sales.
Tofu Mama Can't Shimmie.
Tubular Mannequin Corpuscle Shuffle
Turkey Mumbled, "Communist Stooge!"
And.... it's 1:00 A.M. I actually do have important things to do tomorrow. It's not caffeine, I swear. I just get silly late at night. Better go bedder. Bye.

Two goofy comments...
1) It's TMCB, so maybe TMCS was Freudian? ;)
2) The email program turned "
a.m.in" into a URL. That just makes me chuckle for some reason.
I just want to add my encouragement for you all to attend if at all possible. Tomorrow's presentation is part of our Undergraduate Seminar series, and Blue Coat has been very active in the Internet safety space. I'm joining the speaker for lunch after the presentation. If anyone has any questions for him, send me an email and I'll try to ask him over lunch and report in class at 1:35.

Class,
Sorry that this is late notice, but Dr. K just let me know that you can count attendance at tomorrow's colloquium as one hour of wiki writing for CS 404. It's at 11:00 a.m.in 1170 TMCS (the same place where we have class). As if that wasn't good enough, there are always free doughnuts. What's not to like?
