Yeah, I got a C or D in health one quarter in high school (don't ask), and I never thought it would affect my chances of going to a good college. And, in fact, it didn't.

Um, aren't all finals cumulative for the year? At least for my schooling (both high school and college) they were. I can't remember a class that didn't include stuff from the entire course on the final.
In high school, I think most of my final exams were cumulative. Not in college. Well, not in the liberal arts classes I was taking. I suspect the engineering classes were different.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Trudy: I'm not sure, but there has been talk about the officiant in Fiji having had records--which have been destroyed. I got the impression that the State Department has records but never showed them to her. That's a good point, though, hadn't thought about it.

Ha. It should have been -- that would have been less stupid than the actual reason.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

When I got my transcript a few years ago, there were classes I would have sworn I'd never taken.
Oh, that totally happened to me. History of Philosphy? Seriously?
Then there's the summer course I took on the French Revolution. I spent three hours every day for three weeks frantically writing pages notes while our prof. lectured at quite a clip. Then I vomitted everything back in one midterm and one exam. What do I remember? Soemthign about meeting on a tennis court... I think I retained more from watching a production of Marat/Sade.

My niece is going to be Cinderella [link] for Halloween and I'm thinking of sending a costume for my nephew. What could be be that would coordinate?
A pumpkin?
Eeee! With wheels on the side, so that he's her carriage!
What a great idea! Alas, he will be Cinderella's monkey friend instead.
