All American Reject

I have a take-home final that's due tomorrow morning.  A take-home final that (obvs) I cannot discuss with anyone.  I have had the exam since Friday.  The suspense of it all is killing me.  Thursday cannot come fast enough.  But Friday better stay away.  Friday is exam time.  In fact, God, if you could pull another one of those sun-never-sets tricks on Thursday afternoon, I'd be much obliged.

Doc Query: The paper looks really good, I think we have a shot at JAMA.

Moi: I don't know.  You've promised that before.

Doc Query: ... and I got it published in JAMA, didn't I?  That's not bad.

Moi: Well, the first one, yes, but the second one-

Doc Query: It's not that I can't get JAMA to accept the second paper.  I can't get anyone to accept it.
