...too many words are useless...even professors are susceptible..this from an educator friend of mine:
I wonder if I might crave your momentary indulgence in order to discharge a by-no-means disagreeable obligation which has, over the years, become more or less established practice within our circles as we approach the terminal period of the calendar year, but not financial, of course. In fact, not to put too fine a point on it, I submit to you, with all appropriate deference, for your consideration at a convenient juncture, a sincere and sanguine expectation -- indeed confidence, or even, one might go so far as to say, hope -- that the terminal two weeks of this calendar year may be, at the end of the day, when all relevant factors have been taken into consideration, susceptible to being deemed to be such as to merit a final verdict of having been by no means unsatisfactory in its overall outcome and, in the final analysis, to give grounds for being judged, on mature reflection, to have been conducive to generating a degree of gratification which will be seen in retrospect to have been significantly higher than the general average.
In other words, have a Happy New Year.
