Oh, I wasn't clear when you said that he hadn't been answering emails. I really should have said will the colleague email him and see if it's okay? He might answer an email from a colleague where he wouldn't answer yours.
I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

I don't know if he'll answer emails from colleagues. I've heard other professors complaining about him not answering emails plenty of times.

If he doesn't answer the colleague's email, then the guy will figure out why you're asking him to post the paper instead of your advisor.

If I wanted to do some kind of end-run around my advisor, this professor is probably the last one I'd pick. It's just that, as far as I can tell, he is the only one in the department who is actually allowed to endorse people. (There are two other professors who ought to be allowed to, but all their papers are cowritten and registered under another author's name, even though the system allows you to register multiple authors.)

Oh, I wasn't trying to imply that _you_ were doing anything wrong at all, I hope that it didn't seem that way.

Yeah, I know. I was just saying that, if this professor is at all self-aware, he'd know that he's not the guy someone would try that with.

har. You're asking a lot for (some) faculty to be self aware.

In stark contrast to Hil's advisor, my boss is awesome. We just had this conversation over our new instant messaging system (she was actually walking over to my cubicle when she went back to her office to give it a try).
I forgot to say thanks for doing a good job during our 1:1.
Thanks.
You're welcome? I don't know what I did.
You are very intelligent, capable, and dependable. I am reminded of it at least daily. I thought I should say thanks for that.
If you want me to send this in an e-mail so you can archive it. I will.
Oh! Thank you. I really appreciate it.
Oh, please do. I will pull it out and hug it.
LOL. I assume you heard that.
