And our Dean just resigned. Not in a happy way.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

Really, it depends on who steps in. But it's not a great thing to happen right now knowing what I know from sitting on various committees.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Sparky, I haven't been keeping up, but I've heard rumblings. That bad?

There are unresolved issues that this Dean has not let the U administration weasel out of addressing and I am afraid of anyone else who steps in and doesn't hold the U. to account.

Grr. Kudos to him for holding their feet to the fire.
Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Interesting. Our President just resigned in a not very good way, but I think he was more of a fall guy/didn't address issues than getting pushed out for pushing to address issues. If that word salad made any sense.

Grammar question!
Is it "There are a considerable number of Mexican restaurants in the area" or"There's a considerable number of Mexican restaurants in the area"

Ann, that's a ferret.
I've had "There is" and "There are" more or less drilled out of me. I'd say, "The area contains a considerable number of Mexican restaurants."

"There are" sounds better.
