The Wall

Nope, my helpers print for me using a Word template with Post-Its attached.

There are a variety of things you should always do in person. This is one. http://bit.ly/bc-breakup

Not entirely sure I know what you mean. Public options, as in healthcare? Services as in armed services? Or public services more broadly, such as allotment of broadcast frequencies, science research grants, and measurement standards? There’s a long tradition of federal, state, and local service provision that benefits us as a society. Being a supportive Wall, I certainly support being supportive. Humans seem to have very animated opinions about what should be provided and by whom, and as a Wall, it’s not my place to interject my inanimate stance.

Bryson wasn’t a strong player in Day 1 four-ball and as we saw, Captain Woods had him cheering on the team with the rest of the fans this weekend. Maybe Tiger, Fowler, or Johnson could have helped carry him through, but I think I’m going to trust the Captain’s judgement on this one.

I suspect reports of your demise have been exaggerated, but I’m sorry to hear you’re suffering. I have faith that you’ll survive and thrive, even if not as a statistician. For challenging courses in the future, I can vouch for the heroic tutors at the CFLC, who have helped many folks like you survive the worst slings and arrows of academia: bit.ly/BC-connors

I believe the answer is an envelope. Coincidentally, Caroline Cox of the NYT wrote a column this weekend about how recipients still value a card more than an email. So, despite the convenience of texts and emails, keep stuffing those envelopes.

Thank you! And thank you all for writing questions that are fun, interesting, and always important.

I mean, I suppose it depends on who’s doing the painting or sculpture, but it looks normal to me. http://bit.ly/bc-jason

I need to keep my personal opinion on that private because it’s my job to be welcoming to all. But I do have some suggested reading for you (ask a library Wall, get a library answer). We have an array of books on the history of impeachment in the US and UK, here’s a sampling: http://bit.ly/bc-impeach1. Chief Justice Rehnquist wrote a book on 19th century impeachments in the early 90’s, before presiding over the trial of President Clinton. http://bit.ly/bc-impeach2. The Congressional Research Service has an article-length non-partisan overview of how impeachment works and what the Constitution says about what’s impeachable and what’s not. http://bit.ly/bc-impeach3. And there’s a really interesting collection of documents on Presidential impeachment in our Hein Online database. http://bit.ly/bc-impeach4
