Frustration:

This is what I've decided teaching race realtions in an introductory sociology class feels like - paining the Sistine Chapel with an 8" paintbrush while wearing mittens.  So of course I made a PP slide to illustrate this to my class - I figure it'll be good for a chuckle at least.

I was gonna go with a "carving something gorgeous with a chainsaw" metaphor but, well, we all know that's possible.  (I really, REALLY wanted to find either a David or a Venus de Milo done with a chainsaw, but not enough to spend more than 2 minutes googling for it.)
