Students
It is my privilege to work with the rockin'-est, ass-kickin'-est
students around. They can often be found squaring circles or proving
P=NP. Operating from their secret underground lunar base, they are the
scourge of super-villains the world over, and regularly save the
planet from alien invasion. (You haven't seen any alien invaders
around, have you? See? They're that good.) Don't mess with my
students.
