Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

If I got up early enough to make breakfast, I'm sure I could probably come up with a tasty, healthy way to prepare oatmeal. The odds of that happening are relatively slim.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, breakfast for me is usually a Luna Bar. Unfortunately, I'm out of them, so I was forced to stop at Chik-Fil-A.

If I got up early enough to make breakfast, I'm sure I could probably come up with a tasty, healthy way to prepare oatmeal. The odds of that happening are relatively slim.

Fortunately, nobody at work cares if we eat breakfast at our desks, and oatmeal is super-easy to make in the microwave. I don't mean the instant kind in the packets; regular oatmeal from a canister can be made in the microwave. I've slowly converted at least half my office to oatmeal for breakfast.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Half the girls in my office eat instant oatmeal for breakfast -- you don't even need the microwave.

Yup. Just fill up the cup with hot water from the coffee machine and let it sit for a few minutes and you're good to go.

Breakfast I eat at home before work doesn't keep me from getting hungry at 10 am anyway.

In news of me, they're drilling holes in my precious walls. But soon I will have the teevee, so it's a good thing.

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

I got up early so I could go get steak and eggs before breakfast. Nummy. But I'm hungry again.

Once it gets cooler I'll probably switch back to making oatmeal at home.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Okay, even if I had ever taught in a place that had someone who did this for me, I can't imagine ever asking them to do my own d*mn work!

I work at a school of nursing, and for accreditation purposes our syllabi have to conform to exact standards, which are published in the faculty handbook. I have one teacher who I can't even get to tell me how much she is counting each assignment (something that must be in the syllabus). Every time I ask her, she keeps sending me copies of the assignments! All I want to know is how much weight she is giving each one... is that too much to ask.

Ah well, off to blackboard!

Question for Research Studs:

I'm going to have endnotes in my book. What's the preferred citation style? This is not an academic text, but I should be consistent.

We have no hot water down here. Nor a microwave. And our refrigerator is currently in a box, disguised from building management while they sweep the entire skyscraper for rogue electronics.
