I guess this is the sort of thing that would perpetuate civilization,

Thanks! D'you suppose that the "cokes" are actually Cokes, or are
they using it in the strange, generic way?

Harvard ... are you sure that anyone looking for pale stale ale, in Yale,
wants to go to Harvard? With the Law Review? I respectfully request you
send those ... students ... to Delta Tau Chi.

Maybe the JOHN PHILLIP LAW REVIEW! Hey, has anyone done that as an
off-Broadway show?

Or the SOUTHERN SUN! Anywhere, as long as there are RAILINGS!
Although, combining beer, ale, and railings might not be a good

Hmmm, how do you know? And does that level of secrecy imply that
whoever puts them on it, doesn't know, either?

I don't think so, but if it was, the musical score would be a selection of
works by John Philip Sousa.

Railings are a good idea, reguardless.

I have a double agent in the Dean's Office.

Well, it really depends on how "secret" "Secret Probation" is. You see, if
you're on Secret Probation, it's know by the entire Joint Select Committee
on Intelligence.

I want to know who told Justice Scalia about that probation type.

who notes that the only real qualification for a Supreme Court Justice is
that the Senate is willing to confirm them.

Play the "Liberty Bell March" and pretend it's SPAMALOT! The extended
"BARBARELLA" act will seem JUST NATURALLY SURREAL!

Make it Dean Devlin's office, and we're at CITY LIMITS! I wonder how
Robby Benson would fare against the DEATHMOBILE!

Thus establishing that Final Justice is just the last justice
confirmed. That whole Malta thing was just a thinly disguised

Well, you see we had to do something. All those red shirts, you know. They
just don't stay around long enough for us to keep up with proper staffing,
and someplace has to suffer as a result.

Promotional pictures are for example only. Your Maltese item may not look
exactly like those pictured. Only available in alabaster, white, blanco,
snow, ivory, and bleached. Currently sold out of all avian objects. Your
order may be substituted with another item of our choice. Batteries not
included. Void where prohibited by law. Residents of ND must add a 3.14%
sales tax.

I'm just wondering if staffing is the Middle Earth equivalent of
caning. Hmmm.

Only if you're a human using a halfling's staff.

Of course, here at Middle Earth, Inc, we believe that staffing is all
important. It will continue until moral improves.

Souvenir Maltese Mugs are for display only. Do not drink out of your
Maltese Mug. Drinking milk out of a Maltese Mug may cause severe
gastro-intestinal distress. In rare cases, three out of two, milk poured
out of Maltese Mugs has caused chemical burns. Do not inhale the vapors
from your malted milk filled Maltese Mug. Vapors have been known to
vaporize synthetic cloth. Do not poor cola in your Maltese Mug, as it has
resulted in orbital misplacement.

I almost suffered orbital misplacement when I saw the poor cola! If I
had a drinkworthy Maltese Mug, you can bet that I'd only consume
AVERAGE-OR-ABOVE-AVERAGE COLAS out of it. Or Dr Pepper ;-)

I'm sorry to say but you will not be getting an AVERAGE-OR-ABOVE-AVERAGE
COLA this year ... or even next year. The Social Security Administration
beleives that we are currently living under low inflationary to
deflationary presures.

Well, I'm thinking that would clash with the *baby*... BUT YOU'RE IN
LUCK! Because Merlin Olsen likes the cut of your jib, we're offering
you, at no additional charge, an upgrade to _Hulk Baby_ (for the

sorry, but that _Hulk Baby_ clashes with the basket. To say nothing about
the baby's breath ... flowers, not ... oh not the Immitation Crystal Vase
from Lisbon.

Nothing went wrong. I assure you that everything is and has been perfectly
under control. The scene of distruction, including the remains of the
Taubman Museum of Art is entirely from stock footage. Nothing could have
possibly went wrong. It's not like a hoard of Vikings have just arrived or
anything like that.

HULK BABY is the key to beating today's high machine-vended prices!
When HULK BABY sees an item he/she/it wants, he/she/it SMASHES that
vending machine, and frequently the item, too!

Fortunately they chipped in to buy more. I already had enough SPAM in

Ah yes, that was the key to the whole thing, wasn't it? If it weren't
for that, *she* might have had a bit more "tribble" with HULK BABY.
But maybe I'm saying too much....
