Now then, who can tell me where we left off before the holidays? Anyone? Mitosis? Meiosis? Either of those ring a bell? No? How about genetics? Mendelian inheritance? Fruit flies? Any of you recall our discussing those? What about algae?...Perhaps something about algae?... Girl: (Psst) I'm telling you, Paige, I don't think he remembers? Paige: Sir? I believe we were on chapter one. Boy: EARLY chapter one!

"Outside of talk radio hosts, newspaper columnists, and TV talking heads, who determines whether a law is constitutional or not?" I think I loved a different American Government.

FoxTrot by Bill Amend - "Test Scheduling" published September 8, 2013 - Dr. Ling: Yes, Paige? Paige: Sir, about next week's test...I looked at the cafeteria schedule and lunch on that day sounds totally vile and disgusting. Dr. Ling: What's that have to do with the test? Paige: This class is fifth period! I can't speak for the other students, but I'm going to have a hard time intelligently answering questions if I'm writhing on the floor fighting nausea and stomach cramps! Dr. Ling: So you want me to postpone it a day? Paige: Actually, the next day's lunch sounds equally bad. Dr. Ling: So when exactly do you propose I give the test? Paige: I figured I'd leave that up to you. Here's the cafeteria schedule. Dr. Ling: You certainly make a compelling case for "never". Paige: Oh, good, so we're in agreement.
