BONUS OPPORTUNITY: to ENCOURAGE an early first visit to 
    student hours!
=====
*   During the FIRST TWO WEEKS of class --
    (so, by Friday, September 4)

    COME to BSS 322 during student hours
    and tell me a JOKE,
    and you will receive a 1-point BONUS on
    Homework 1

    *   (Since the main point is to come by my office in
        BSS 322, you must tell me a joke there to receive
        this bonus.)

    *   (If you find me in BSS 302 at a time other than
        student hours, and tell me a joke then, you can
        also receive this bonus. 

        But you can be more sure that I will be there
        during student hours.)
