Ok, ok, I know it's EVIL for us to share student excuses for the sheer
humor of it, but this is a new one on me. I have a graduate student (in a
professional ethics course, no less!) who missed her exam (allegedly) due
to illness (the "allegedly" would take three pages to explain). Anyway, she
was to have been here at 9 am for the makeup test. She called and left a
message that she would be an hour late for the appointment because "the
garbage truck has me blocked in; I can't get out of the parking lot!"  
I shudder to think of how much garbage would need to be there to cause an
hour's delay in leaving the house.
