    Medical Afflictions of the Cartoon World

    Maybe not afflictions per se, but these scenarios came to mind: Fred Flintstone as a neurosurgeon? Barney Rubble as his anesthesiologist? Huey, Dewey and Louis as experimental lab subjects; one gets...

    The effects of not reporting harassment

    The every year Snow thread

    It's all good until someone gets huffy; but so far, Far'wyn, all is well here. I think it does help that, like BeenThereDoneThat said, the emPHAsis is on a different aspect of the snow/work dichotomy....
