Meanwhile, across town at another overpriced institution, the Moronvirus continues to plague the Capitol Hill campus. An unnamed official was quoted: "While it may appear to the public that this virus has ravaged Capitol Hill unabated for over 200 years, we believe that the Moronvirus is in its final throes."

It was sort of a given that it would end up as Norovirus, but the dining hall is re-opening this evening.

I had that a few years back when my 4 yr old cousin got it and then blew chunks all over me. 48 hours of pure, concentrated, vomit-tastic agony. And extremely contagious, even if no one throws up on you. All those nice people who helped their roommates to the hospital will probably come down with it themselves. Nasty, nasty stuff.
