Professor: "The Netherlands were the only European country that came out of the religious wars smelling like a rose - well, shall we say, more like a tulip."
Heh. I don't think anyone else got the joke. And he kept referring to that for about forty-five minutes before explaining it with an "Oh, by the way..."
And IIRC, he said the word "bourgeoisie" over ten times in the lecture today.
My Biblical Lit test...ehhhh. I was late to it because of alarm trouble again, but I still finished ahead of time. I mixed up and put "The Jordan Way" instead of "The Jordan Rift" because I'm a moron, but I still think I did pretty well, especially for being in a total panic.
