  1. Hey, don't dis the Universe. You try writing things that have to go through a million approvals and that has to be written in a certain way. It isn't as easy as it looks pal.

  2. Working for the Uni-farse, I tend to agree with Sam's analysis--especially considering the criteria for choosing front-page stories. :) So, is this situation ironic or just inconvenient? I would say the latter. Why are people always saying things are ironic when they're not? By the way, I still have a highlighter in my bag if you need one. I hope your pages didn't get stuck from licking them. . . .

  3. You know, I do believe your situation would fit in quite nicely with all the non-ironic things in Miss Morissette's song which she labels as ironic. Who woulda thought. It figures.
