Oooooh. I hope that has enough bite to drag them through the mud at least.
Looks like civilization finally caught up with us.

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

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?

Oh- the no refunds thing is really complicated. And I am actually OK with academic-ese. Just in this particular department we have badly done academic-ese (like withdrawals are subject to tuition???). I think it might be because the nurses I work for aren't particularly academic, and a lot of the mistakes they make were trained out of me in a liberal arts college environment, while in a more clinical setting their writing wasn't the focus.

Man, I wish the process servers had taken pictures when they handed out those summons.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
There seems to be a site for the Wilsons' legal fund. But looking at it, I don't see any way to determine its veracity.

Huh. Google seems to have changed its algorithm or something. When I googlebate now, it turns up my writing first instead of random instances of my name in reviews. So it places Things David Wrote in the top slots.
Cool! I was wondering why I was suddently getting email from people I'd been out of contact with. Now they're getting directed immediately to Kim's websites and she's been forwarding them to me.

Going over to CNN.com to read about the Plame story, I noticed Red Buttons had died. I honestly thought he'd died years ago. RIP, Poseidon survivor.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Goodbye, Hoagy.
is sad about Red Buttons.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Another panicked voicemail in to my neighbor's daughter. I've told her I'm not watching any more news but would appreciate a call to let me know Zilla's ok.
This has to stop.

I'm pretty near the red line Tom. Do you like Indian food? Want to meet at the place at the Belmont station for dinner some night?
Also, it's kind of a problem that employees can't be expected to understand "no refunds" in this context.
Depending on what the tuition program Sophia mentioned really is, I can't say I'd have made the leap from "dropping my free class" to "owing the Uni lots of money" from reading no refunds.
