Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Anyone withdrawing from the course after the first class session will be responsible for the full tuition charge.

Sophia, go with "no refunds" and add a separate sentence to address that directly. That seems like the kind of thing that's going to need to be spelled out.

ETA: Or what Jesse said. That could work.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

No tuition refunds are granted after the first class session.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Thank you! That is perfect

I am still close enough to academia (and even closer to government talk) that I can come up with a ridiculous yet precise way to say things.

I do get really frustrated that everything here is written in this rather bizarre combination of immature, non-business-like prose and pedantic, jargon filled sentances that don't actually make sense. Not that I am a great writer, but I just feel like everything that is here already sounds moronic and it just takes so long to fix it. I was just rewriting a whole set of instructions for applying for a program that a) had no actually instructions except for a checklist that was not explained b) had a checklist with different names for application parts than were printed on the application and c) is written entirely in passive voice.

Writing by committee. Always a good time.

Also, it's kind of a problem that employees can't be expected to understand "no refunds" in this context. I'm just saying.

Oooooh. I hope that has enough bite to drag them through the mud at least.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Ex-CIA operative Valerie Plame sues Vice President Cheney, his former aide, Scooter Libby, and presidential adviser Karl Rove.

Yay!

Lets hope she has good lawyers. With bazookas.

Oh brenda, I keep forgetting - I have to get that book to you. Where abouts-ish do you live? Are you near the Red Line?

eta: Ooh - sexy, evil number....
