They're allowed to drink, but if someone happens to mention that so and so gets actually drunk, so and so gets blacklisted. One girl who grauated by now, she had actually divorced, but she had only told two of her closest friends because that kinda thing is frowned upon at Regent U (divorcing that is). Yup, that's the school for me... assuming I get off my ass and go eventually. But seriously, I'm sure Regent produces MANY awesome legal eagles... look at Monica Goodling... Oh... er... well, you know. Nope Beer.

Actually, there are a lot of variations and they're all pretty different looking. The leaves can be as narrow as pine needles or as wide as oak leaves. The plants can be a foot tall or 12 feet tall. The one thing they have in common - and the reason you find so many of them in office buildings - is that they're like gerbils: they need almost no care and pay no attention when you call their names. A shrub toadying for a Bush was too good a metaphor to pass up. That’s a bonsai variation which I thought was for some reason appropriate.
