It definitely rates with Paul Verhoeven's finest. In any case, it should convince America's youth to

I too live the academic life, on the other side of the desk after ten years as a student at some level or other. What surprises me is that UW wouldn't have a more robust support office for this kind of thing. In any case, the campus ain't a free range, so if you want your space unlocked without the Goth Gamerz lurking inside it, you gotta work with the people who are trying to help you set it up. At my current college, they play it fast and loose with space reservations and AV equipment, and I can say I'd be happy to jump through the hoops to get stuff sorted out before the show.

I've certainly indulged a few times. The women that don't let it bother them deserve to be congratulated, but it's just wrong to criticize Allison or anyone else for simply pointing out the obvious.

Will I get banned for saying moderbator?

We should arrange a cc vs mounties softball game--might be quite a few surprise "double agents."

this isn't fake

I've got to find some better weed.

Hey, everybody! I just paid a babysitter $30 so I could go see Love Actually with my wife! Happy goddamn holidays!

Bring it on!!!

Actually, Columbus is in an area of mildly charming forested hills. For my money the downside is: ubiquitous NASCAR paraphernalia makes it difficult to distinguish lazy urban folk from dangerous country folk vast enthusiasm for mainstream ask for "good coffee" and they'll pour day-old diner fluid rusting shell of a city On the other hand, there are some good things: small pockets of worldly and/or cool people in any city that size relatively close at 4.5 hours to New River Gorge they'd probably pay you to drive a U-Haul into the state convergence of climbing and trespassing means double your excitement

We sure could use another look at the "god kills a kitten" image about now....

Erm, no beer cheese soup for me, waiter.

These days I'm a stay at home dad, so adventures makes the top two. Soon as the progeny's old enough to drag along, maybe I'll consolidate it all and transcend into a higher form of seagull.
