FTL News and Notes

Is this a postcard of a miniature jackalope posing next to a tennis ball somewhere in New Mexico?  Heavenly days, no!  It's Jeremy's pal, Bunkins, who is posing next to a giant tennis ball somewhere in California!  Heck, that's no ordinary giant tennis ball.  It's Jeremy's Australian Open prize!  FTL has learned that this elegant conversation piece will be on exhibit in Jeremy's campus office in March and April.  Word on the street is that the ball will also double as a talking stick at faculty meetings for the remainder of the academic year.
