My student story:
Everyone graduating from this program has to watch some tapes/DVDs to fulfill an ethics requirement. A student graduating this semester just came into the library because he hasn't done this and is leaving town -- he tells me the Dean's office only told him last week that he had to do this, he's not going to graduate, yada, yada, boo-hoo.
And then he asks me to sign something that says he watched the tapes, and swears he'll do it "someday". See above re, subject of tapes? Ethics.
I think he even said, "Aww, com'on!" when I said "no."
See above re, subject of tapes? Ethics.
That is just too funny....
I'm sure he wouldn't have asked me to lie for him if he'd just had the time to watch the tapes, poor ethically-challenged lawyer-to-be.
Forty-eight hours of celebrations are taking place to mark nine new states joining a European border-free zone.
The Schengen agreement, which allows passport-free travel across the area, now embraces 24 nations.
The Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia joined the zone.
And at the same time, the US is closing it's friendly borders. Gah.
Congrats on your A Epic!!! Crossing fingers for your other grade and requesting crossing for my outstanding grade, too.
Barkeep! A round of A-ma for the house, please!
Also, still wanting to off some cow-workers.
Oh, I'm so there! Maybe we could have a
Strangers on a Train
-style trade-off?
Yay for Nora's (clearly well-earned, since not a surprise) A!
Yay to all A's and to all school going folk, regardless of grades. Woot.
Yes, this. We're very pretty. And smart 'n' stuff, yo.
Yikes, Kristin. Very laugh to keep from cryin'.
I forwarded it to my department, and one of my colleagues just responded with, "That was the most funingly thing I have been reading since three or more days from then."
Oh! DJ that's really terrible.
I hope you're spared the purity siege.
We'll just arm the TG shocktroops with jagerbombs and hand grenades. We'll blast Electric Six and send the strippers to lower their morale. Then we'll send our O'Rourke Republicans out to negotiate their surrender.
S'okay. I have formed a battle plan.

Wow. Somebody's colleague clearly has a brilliant future writing instruction manuals in Taiwan. Mad skillz.

I think you should arm the strippers with Fernet and drape them in candy necklaces.
ijs.
mmm strippers in candy necklaces. Can we get candy belts too. Far more fun to eat off. What? It's true!
So, while I've been here in San Fran (oh, you don't like that.... It's "The City"....)
Ahem. Excuse me. Everybody knows "the City" is New York City. The city you are referring to is called "Frisco". :: ducks and covers ::
The whole I-35 thing scares me. I'm... I... O hell I'm speechless over the craxiness of it.
So office-mate gave me a day to day calendar. Typically any calender I get sits there about 6 months behind schedule. This one, tho, has a fighting chance. Sudoku day to day from Will Shortz! And yes, I've already done Jan 1 puzzle. What? I have that day off. It's only fair!
Yay to all the A's out there! Finally some good Buffista news!
Also triple cheer on S getting discharged. Sean, I really think you two should refrain from travel. Clearly the gods don't want you to do it.
OK, now I have to look up the rules for Haiku's. Tho I am not all that poetic, I have one brewing in my head. I hope it works out.
