This might be the funniest post yet! Sad situation but this post captures it all. Sitting here with a friend, watching the NY Rangers and the NY Yankees. Read this to my friend and we both laughed out loud. Thanks for the gift of laughter!

We should post fun things to ease the wait.

Time flies when you're having fun. Fruit flies like banana.

On Wall Street you are measured by your performance. Not great output. Might not earn that Goldman Sachs bonus, Stanford!

I wish you the best of luck with their answer! Hope you get an acceptance, after the protracted decision period.

If the status checker says decision letter was sent but if you didnt receive any email, does that usually mean you're dinged? :'( I'm out of country and won't be able to check my snail mail for about a month..

last count ended at 120, I think...we are halfway there.
if the catholics are right about the afterlife, I hope wtrc is there to be cheerful about the waiting there too.

It means either ding or WL, unfortunately :(. As mentioned, you can call the admissions office and they'll tell you which one it is.
