Well, it's a reasonably good excuse to take a break from job application forms...

You know, Doc, I was reliably informed when I got here that you were the reasonable one of the science team. Go to Dr Zelenka, people told me, he’s rational, he understands, he doesn’t ask for ridiculous things and then yell when he doesn’t get them. Nice guy, that Dr Zelenka, they said.
This is the last time I listen to what anyone in Atlantis tells me, because clearly they all lie. It’s the only possible explanation for why you’ve just sent me a request for over half of my marines to accompany a two-week research mission to a planet that hasn’t even been fully cleared yet, because it might have ZPMs.
Either that, or it’s April Fools Day in Atlantis and no-one told me. How is the conversion calendar coming, anyway?
On an unrelated note, any chance that you could persuade McKay to take Sheppard exploring the city for a day? I know he’s still recovering, but he’s perfectly capable of walking around, and if I don’t get him out of my hair for a few hours, I’m going to shoot him for real. And I really don’t need the paperwork.

PS – If you’re serious with this, drop by my office this afternoon and we’ll discuss it.
