If you have a phD (or any doctorate), what is it in, how long did it take, post/pre Masters program, would you do it again, what school was it done at, and do you think its worth it? You don't have to answer all the questions, just some of them. I'm just wondering how other people feel about it and what they have done. Also, any good stories about it?

Just making sure I'm not going crazy...

I am writing a business letter for my boss. In one of the paragraphs, I used a quote. He steadfastly insists on putting the quote in italics for "emphasis" (and will not sign it unless I use the italics). However, I was taught and believe (I have a BA in Professional Writing) that italics are for the titles of major pieces only and using it for emphasis is lazy writing (i.e. your wording should have enough emphasis that extra things like italics and bold are not required).

Majority wins...who's right here?

As a side note, I'm going to rewrite the letter so that it does not use quotes so that we avoid this stupid debate. I'm just curious if anyone else has been taught the way that I have.

I've been looking for sheet music for the song "Bubblewrap" by McFly. But I can't find it anywhere. So I was hoping someone could identify the notes for me.

It cost $200,000 for B.A. degree that can get you an extra $1.50 an hour working at Home Depot .

Does anyone actually pay the full price, or is it like medical insurance and W.I.C when the baby formula sells for $29.00 instead of $7.00 because its on Uncle Sam's tab ?

Does the demand out weigh the supply , or is it sort of a controlled pyramid scheme ?

I add up all my grades and I'm basically failing the class

but the teacher gave me passing grade. If he made mistake I don't want to tell him because he'll fail me or is he just being nice and given points away

Should I just leave it and be happy with my passing grade? I don't know why I feel like I don't deserve that grade but at the same time, I don't want to fail
