Trust But Verify

Our Property professor had missed her last two classes and people were wondering if she was going to show up for our next morning class. So I made a trip to the externship office - I don't know why but they're the office that handles such matters - and inquired whether or not Professor Property would be making it to class. After a phone call it became clear that she would not. Apparently a family member had recently passed away.

I then inform Bunny, Turtle, Stummy, Sty, Sean and Bill about it. But for some reason I wasn't to be believed so Turtle and Stummy go in to make their own inquiries to make sure I was telling the truth. Now a person of greater sensitivity may have been offended but I found it humorous and thought to myself, "Damn, these people know me a little too well."
