Decades ago I routinely brought home stacks of reports from work to use the blank sides as scrap paper. Not secretly. Just randomly. They were up to all kinds of financial criminal stuff that I didn’t understand at the time. As they were crumbling they “promoted “ one of the cubical staff and had her fire the rest of us. Anyway, a couple months later I read they were indicted and I realized I had a bunch of evidence at home so I handed it over. Yes, they deserved it.
When we landed here you said you needed a few days to get space worthy again and is there somethin' wrong with your bunk?

Ellery Queen might want one of my stories, if we can agree on an edit.

thanks...can't believe I've been messing with this particular tale for about ten years. TEN YEARS!(/Grosse Pointe Blank) I mean, I've done other things along the way, and at least it hasn't been Jossed because it showcases government as a council of wise elders or some shit--come to think of it, that would be more of a Sorkin thing. Anyway...

How much does anyone here think it makes sense to pay for classes, professional feedback, and all those kinds of things? I'm torn about doing it, even now that my finances have improved a bit. Because we were broke for kind of a long time and stuff...
