...well it was a bit of stretch, since Gonzaga only lost by eight points, which isn't really getting " murdered."

This is a bit off topic, but what do you think Hamlet's famous soliloquy is really about: Is it about suicide, as is popularly assumed, or is he asking a more oblique question about whether in life it is better to a) roll with the punches ("suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune") or b) throw one's self into the affray ("take arms against a sea of troubles")? Most scholars who write prefaces for editions of Hamlet are markedly in favour of the second idea, especially in view of the story itself—but I feel that that overlooks the obvious.

I always felt it was about a perennial graduate (or should that be gradual?) student resigning himself to being ABD, but I may be reading more into it than out of it.
Ceci n'est pas un seing.

Ah. Quote:
ABD abbreviation all but dissertation, used to denote a student who has completed all other parts of a doctorate : ABDs will be considered, but receipt of the doctorate will be a condition of tenure.
