I don't mean to nitpick, Tom, but is this really your plan?

Observations on exams:

1. Okay, fine. Renewals and termination of transfers is rocket science. I will still test on it!
2. When the question has a female protagonist, most people use her first name. When the question has a male protagonist, most people use his last name. There’s even a correlation between people who mistake “Jo Harvelle” for a male (despite the use of the pronoun in the question) and use “Harvelle” instead of “Jo” to answer the question. Just submitted for your consideration.
3. Stop saying “arguably” or I will hurt you. Ok, I’ll just reduce your grade. Argue or do not argue; there is no arguably.

for chase820: What would a plastic surgery consultation between Christian Troy and Lex Luthor sound like? I know Lex needs periodic maintenance, what with all the lingering side-effects of the meteor. I could see him traveling someplace out of the way to have it done, so Papa Luthor wouldn't catch on and see it as weakness.

for shiba_inu: You just know that Lex, at some point, is going to attempt to breed a Kryptonian. Since the only possible male/female pair are cousins this opens a whole big box o' angst...
