Hell, they're available at Kinkos.
Years ago I worked here [link] and alongside the menu for lattes and mochas, there was a menu for estate planning, divorces, traffic tickets and such. Their Heather's Hash is named after me.

Thanks for the info! In terms of the financial planning, I was hoping to go to the reference desk at a law library and have them point me to specific resources, referral services, etc. Not get actual advice from them per say. This is for both a library school assignment (ask a question at the ref desk and write up your experience) and my own knowledge (question about financial planning for GF's parents). So, is there any other type of library (other than law or public) that might have that kind of info?

referral services, etc.
This is the part that even public law libraries might not have. Is this in CA? If so, I would try here: [link]
If not, let me know what state, and I might be able to find you the equivalent.

I just had the most surreal conversation with the NY Times customer service people, who honestly seemed to think that I shouldn't assume we weren't going to get our papers today, even though we haven't gotten our papers today, or any other day since August 8th.

So, I know Buffistas would be amused by this headline on Huffington Post:
Tokyo Stocks Plunge As Asian Markets Continue To Flounder
Um.... I believe the word you're looking for is "founder."

What's wrong with flounder? I know it's a fish but it's also defined as:
To make clumsy attempts to move or regain one's balance.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I believe the word you're looking for is "founder."
Or flounder. It's a verb. I didn't click to read the article, but if they're talking about clumsy undirected motion they may have the right word.

Actually, that's the best part of the headline. "Flounder" isn't necessarily incorrect, but "founder" is more appropriate in that particular usage.
