Sorry, that we’re a tad late with the Nd’A this week.  I Missed my flu shot and was reluctant to have company for the required committee meeting with Mal and Vic.  That, plus more than a little bit of disappointment over the Board’s weak response on Thursday and an insufficient supply of dewberry brandy to bolster our spirits, we tried to outsource the weekly write-up.  Our Out-sorceror , head of Killer Clowns from Outer Space, said the job was just too big and we were Ordered to Care for the responsibility we agreed to take on 27 short weeks ago.  So, if you’ve been Out of the Loop this week, then it’s time to get some Perspective Please because there is still Time to get serious before we act on that Offer Letter in Hand and get to the point of No Turning Back where we Wouldn’t return for a million dollars.

The week did have its highlights.  Liberal commie whiner #1917 led the candlelight toga vigil at the dome where we all chanted let’s Give Pierce A Chance.  A mewsician entertained the crowd with Eighteen Wheels and a Dozen Roses while the USO Doughnut Girl put a smile on more than one Funny Face.  A fundraising booth was set up to solicit donations for the library.  It was called Sub-Admining is Fun!  Close the portholes and dive!  At one point, there was spillover to the soc tailgating event on the lawn and I Gotta Say It, the shout outs seemed well received.  Both Dr. Strangelove and Sgt. York were seen working the crowd, as was Shelby in a Blon(d)e Wig.  It certainly is hard to know who to trust among all the Feral Americanists.  Perhaps if we just did the right things for the right reasons…every time…some of this distrust would go away.   I know, sounds like a Dino speaking.  Well, Miss I is a dinosaur.  All of this because a Pi$$ed Off Student started Taking Names.

We searched for some answers in the Kitchen Cabinet but the Jamestown Cabinet Secretary confirmed that all problems were just more Grist for the Mill.  With the new No Board Member Left Behind Act, it was the consensus that the commissioner is a Censor’s Nightmare.  Does the board really believe that if it can ignore the senators and they’ll go away?  This is supposed to be a university for goodness sake!  The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment, whether recruiting in a private plane with the president or flying solo, should not be able to define a university’s mission.  Cliff the Mailman has been very busy handling the multiple sets of 17,000 brochures from the on campus Direct Marketer.  Seems that there is an alternative to the Publish and Perish track that most academics are on.  Pretty soon, the Rose on the Door is going to be the symbol distinguishing Friend or Foe. 

Friends, I am not a Psychologist – Stayed at the Holiday Inn Express so I can’t promise you the simplest explanation for this week’s overwhelming winner.  One explanation is that we just don’t trust ourselves to be too close to a straight edge blade right now!  Occam’s Electric Razor may safely pick up the People’s Choice Nom d’Aplomb award later this afternoon once Invictus has the chance to make sure it's sufficiently grounded for such a highly charged nom.
