We are coming down to our last Whitecastle stories. Soon, the Whitecastles and Prof Papas of today will be replaced by kinder, gentler advisers of B'more*.
(I walk into Whitecastle's office for a scheduled meeting today)
Moi: Is this a good time?
Whitecastle: Well, I need a cup of coffee, so you'll have to follow me to the kitchen.**
Moi: Just like an episode of the West Wing. This is so exciting!
Whitecastle: Which characters are we?
Moi:...
Whitecastle: It was a trick question. Don't answer it.
*Sure, every professor/mentor I've had and respected since the Bo' has been abusive, but I can dream, can't I?
**Completely unnecessary. I could have just come back in a minute.
