Duties of a son, from The Story of Aqhat: To erect a stele for his ancestral gods; to build a family shrine in the sanctuary; to guard his footsteps from earth to underworld; to take his hand when he is drunk; to put his arm over one's shoulder when he is full of wine; to eat a funeral meal in the temple of Ba'al; to offer a sacrifice in the house of El.

I hope that my J-Term paper was graded in the first hour, not the 4th-20th hours!
I appreciate that cartoon now in a way that I never could have before when I was on the other side of the desk!

My husband has worked as adjunct faculty at Wesley and Marymount, and I've watched him (from a safe distance) suffer through this phenomenon. On the other hand, you're grading Grad School papers. Nothing like grading undergrads, for whom a D is a cause for celebration because they PASSED!
