Final Observations

Last day at the Faculty Center for lunch ... sigh ...

• Hume commented that it was her last veggie sandwich for a while
• Russell noted that Johnson still does not have tenure
• Hollander sighed in a Steven Wright-esque way and said, "I have no sexual off-color remarks. I have a slight cold."
• Johnson wondered whether the routine had become routine

Several schemes were discussed on ways to raise the authority of this blog, including hacking another person's blog who is about to become incredibly famous by being on the Today Show on Wednesday.

Lemon bars were discussed in quiet conversation, as was the possibility that if they'd turn down the air conditioner they could afford more olive oil for the rosemary potatoes.

Shivering, we all departed for a while.

Follow the Script!

There are rules when eating at the Faculty Center:

• Russell must remind Johnson that he doesn't have tenure.
• Hume must point out her "lovingly prepared" veggie sandwich
• Hollander must at some point make an off-color remark
• Johnson then points out we all followed the same script as before
• Rinse and repeat, as needed.
