Funny, I was just complaining to my dad about the poor writing, both style and content, I see in published papers in this field. I told him to start beating that into his grad students and he just started laughing a little hysterically.
It's a real burden being right so often.

I need to know more about the Sacha Baron Cohen/Hugh Laurie subway ride. Like, was it immediately after SNL? (I.e., in the middle of the night on the weekend) Or did they keep hanging out together after? Or did Hugh Laurie just happen by?

I cannot tell you how much work I had to do with my legal writing students about basic grammar, punctuation, sentence structure, etc. And they would get angry with me when I marked them down for it.
