I vote Hil's advisor has to take the class that JZ's coworkers had to take, only the instructor is as charming and dedicated to advancing the students' interests as Hil's advisor is, so he has to keep re-doing shit, like 15 times, and then has to totally retake the whole class, three times. And while he's at the class, he leaves a car window open, so some anonymous drunk takes a whizz right through the open window. And then when Hil's adviser comes out of class to go home, everything around is all closed and locked up, so there's no place to borrow a plastic garbage bag or tarp from, and he has to sit in the wet spot.
Time for some thrilling heroics.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Shir (or anyone else who knows): someone I was talking to is looking for things written by Israelis, in English, criticizing the IDF actions against the flotilla. I pointed her to a few Haaretz editorials. Anywhere else you can recommend?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
WS, that is a very creative and fitting smackdown.
My feet are so swollen today I had trouble getting my leg braces on, and I'm in a good amount of pain today too. It's probably a good thing I have my follow up with my doctor tomorrow. Maybe he'll have some better ideas this time than, "It's hard to say".

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