Now that Passsover has arrived, have you added any modern-day plagues to the ten usually mentioned in the traditional seder? If so, what plagues did you add?

I added a week with 10 papers due.

Hard disk crashes. The kind where the heads leave a shiny track on the disk surface. No, actually, I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

I second the 10 papers in one week plague...

I'd like to add the "pneumonia during the middle of the heaviest semester (15 hrs) and work is going crazy expecting me to put in 50 hour weeks" Plague (Of course the pneumonia could be in response to the Work Plague... who knows.)
