They're putting women from the Army on subs??
Maybe it's an exchange program, and they'll put female sailors in tanks.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I can only heal by sharing the trauma.
Totally understandable. To the Twittermobile, away!

He allegedly hired actors to portray study subjects to clear him of professional misconduct.
That's elaborately nutty.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
That link scares me, too. Why!?!?!?!
Y'know, that car commercial with the 6' sock monkey creeps me out too. There is just something inherently disturbing about a child's toy in life-size form.

What is really nutty is that allegedly the actors thought they were participating in a mock trial (they testified via telephone!)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Wow. Someone just emailed me about a conference she's supposed to go to, because the materials say you have to make your hotel reservation by 3/1. She wasn't sure what to do. I suggested she call the hotel and make a reservation, using the information on the materials. Um, seriously??

Maybe she's never made a hotel reservation before? I think I may have been unsure what to do the first time I had to do one of them for a conference too, since I'd never done it before.

I guess so. I've never met this woman, but her position is relatively senior. Apparently I was helpful, so that's nice.

If she's senior, it's likely she assumed an admin would be taking care of it.

Not that senior. At least not where we work! I'm just saying, I assume she's been an adult for a while. But who knows.
