I loaned a student 35 cents for a soda earlier in the semester and that Jesus freak still hasn't paid me back. I've put a bounty out for her, so if any of you would like to be a mercenary-for-hire, just let me know. But give me a moment please, I'm having a moment of silence for George Harrison and don't want to be interrupted...
