        In fact, there’s a whole branch of rather abstruse math known as knot theory. Jason could well be working on a mathematics dissertation involving bowties.

      I must agree that “T-REX” should instead be written “T. rex” (obviously, there’s the unfortunate drawback of the dialog being all caps). Also, It isn’t a very good picture of Tachyoryctes rex.

        … It isn’t “Tyrannosaurus”? I mean, I’m not a paeleontologist, but I thought “Tyrannosaurus rex” was the one dinosaur name everybody knew, other than Velociraptor.

    Joyce is so going to start hanging around Walky constantly in hopes Sal shows up. Then she’ll freak out when she realizes she’s really there because she wants to bone him.

      Oh my gosh, Jason-atar. Awesome 😀

      On an unrelated note, I like seeing Walky and Joyce hanging around together without him having love/fear/angst over her. Also that their budding friendship is totally realistic. “I dunno, I just bumped into them one day and we talked about stuff, and the next thing I knew we were walking to class together and bongoing about our siblings” is how I made about half my friends 🙂

            I want to know how the conversation with Sci-Re went.

            “I’d like for this window to not break when a college-age girl comes crashing into it. And I’d like for it to be done quickly please.”

            “…You…you really think that’s going to be an issue? It’s, like, 20 stories off the ground.”

            “Yes. It’s going to be a very important issue. I need this done as soon as possible. Like now.”

            “I just don’t think…college age girls…fly…?”

            “What part of now did you not understand?”

            “I’m gonna have to run some tests…”

      Mayhaps it is so. I knew a guy who was nearly as assholish as Mike. He took a liking to me for some reason I can’t define, and anytime we were in the same room, he took it as his mission to be my ‘bodyguard’ (although there was never any particular threat to my well-being).

      That said, I actually like Mike. I suppose being fictional helps.

        Same characters; different universe.

        The same hook-ups that happened in the Walkyverse might not happen again in this ‘verse. Joyce could easily hook with with Mike of all people, for all we know.

        I wouldn’t be surprised to see Joyce glomp onto Walky relatively early, only for him to get freaked out by her. After all, in the alternate universe they had a past together & spent a lot time together with work. Different universe means different reactions.

        (Although if they don’t end up together I think I’ll go mad. They’re pretty made for each other, after all.)

          After all, this is an alternate universe with Walky & Dorothy… she might end up being Joyce’s biggest competition. With her to obsess over Walky might not be the one to make the moves on Joyce. (I just hope this isn’t the universe he marries Dorothy in!)

The problems with this prosecution are legion, but most immediately, the
government cannot prosecute Judge Dugan because she is entitled to judicial immunity for her official acts. Immunity is not a defense to the prosecution to be determined later by a jury or court; it is an absolute bar to the prosecution at the outset. See Trump v. United States,
