I've heard some lame excuses in my time (heard, or used?).
"Sorry sir, my P.E. shirt was eaten by an escalator"
"I can't come in to work because I'm feeling a bit urrrrr"
"Dear Mr Smith, Please excuse X from the cross-country run today
because he has a rash."
Look Owings, everyone knows that hospitals have internet facilities.
Don't try fobbing us off with that old chestnut. It's Friday and you
are required, under the terms of this newsgroup, to file a ghost story
in the time-honoured tradition.
However, your attendance record has been pretty reliable over the last
five years, so I suppose one lapse is just about tolerable.
But don't let it happen again.
