It's probably apparent that I like alluding to things (usually movies) and seeing if anyone can figure it out. On occasion, however, I like alluding to things that my audience will not only never figure out, but also never notice that I've slipped something in.
Case in point: My letter to my new students.
In this letter I included some information about what books I am reading and what I like to do in my spare time. Can anyone figure out what I am subtly alluding to that none of my students will ever notice or figure out?
In my spare time, I enjoy reading all sorts of books. Right now I am reading a book about early American battle tactics and recently finished one about a teenage super-spy. I enjoy keeping up a blog so that my friends and family know what’s happening in my life. When I’m not writing blog entries, I like to quilt and play ultimate frisbee both of which are great ways to unwind. I also enjoy writing poetry and reading friends and family member’s blogs.

The fact that you have eyes on the back of your head and you are not afraid to tackle unruly students?
Okay, maybe I was too subtle. I made an allusion to a specific book. So far I only know of one student that has for sure read at least part of it.
You know, this time as I read the title it was so obvious I was struck dumb. :) Ok, not really, but I get it now.
