It did seem rather like an elementary school lesson on "Our Neighbor to the North."
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.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I'm guessing if she had been wildly unstable, it wouldn't have gotten to that meeting, but I don't know how academia works -- if you're on the tenure track, do you automatically stay there?

It was, I mean was it necessary to say that we have 10 provinces?

In the "does it matter?" sense, or in the "wouldn't Americans already know that?" sense? Because the answers are very different.

From what I've seen, most people who are hired in a tenure-track job will stay in that job until tenure review, unless they do something really horrible.

In news of people are stupid, I barely stopped a woman from backing her car over a blind man tonight on the way home from work. Jesus.

BWAHAHAHAHAAHAH! Oh, that's good. I needed that.

DC people: anybody know what the snow situation on the roads is in the area around National Airport? Someone I know is driving in tomorrow and staying at a hotel near there and wants to know what to expect.
