Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

Why would tenured faculty not get offices?? That's very weird. And why do you have to do this guys dirty work?

Joy. Now I've been instructed to deal with the tenured faculty. Dude, do your own dirty work.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Sparky, that's unbelievable. Ugh.

I just mapped a 1 mile walk in my neighborhood and i think I am taking the dog on a walk when I get home. The goal is to be able to jog a couple of miles on the road in a couple of weeks.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

(That's one of the downsides of being a working parent, to me: I feel like I "owe" her all my time on the weekends because I don't spend weekdays with her, so when she's home, she's usually doing something with either M or me, and doesn't spend as much time amusing herself as she could.)

This is interesting -- I just heard a thing about a study that shows that children of middle-class working parents today spend more time with their parents than children of middle-class housewives did in the 50s/60s. (I'm also interested in the switch from housewife to SAHM, which tells sort of the same story...) Granted, that includes older children than yours!

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

So, the tenured faculty will not have offices at all? That seems odd. We have a formula here to determine if you get an office, a shared (2 person office) or a group office, and I am pretty sure tenure gets you an office WITH a meeting area in it.

so one of the houses near me that was for sale is now for rent. $1350/month which I figure 2 of you all could split easily AND BE MY NEIGHBORS!!

In my made up world everyone can work from home or just move their job.

But seriously, 3 BR, 2 Bath for $1350 AND ME!!!

Because books.

But in those days children also spent more time with each other, too.
