Yay! New Dawson’s Creek recap at MBTV! Not one of my favorite episodes ever, but I did laugh when Doug said, “I loooove chipped beef on toast.” And even though Pacey didn’t get nekkid, he still looked sufficiently tortured that the fan fic writers should have some good material to work with. (Yes, I know the show sucks. That’s why I watch it. Don’t bother e-mailing to tell me why.)
Sorry about the lack of posts today. Er, yesterday. Whatever. It was a time of crazy working-ness. (Can you tell I’m at work til 1 a.m.?) Here’s a great time killer for when you’ve read all the PaceyPorn and you’re still waiting for some content you need: Martin’s Java Applet Anagram Generator. I found out that my name is an anagram for “Danish I.T. Worker.” Huh. Danes must work their ass off.
Heh. More details are emerging in the case of the stolen W’s… At least one was found in the bathroom. I laughed like a 10-year-old when I read that.
ESPN reports that the West Virginia spitter has apologized and left the team. They’ve got some funny quotes from WV students who’re worried that he made them look bad. “We’re already considered to be rednecks and drunks anyways, then he goes and acts like a redneck,” said Dutch Underwood, a freshman from Summersville, W.Va. There’s also some concern about whether “the bad blood between the schools could resurface” when our women’s team plays them tonight.
The ND Men’s Basketball team beat #8 Syracuse 74-60 last night. Troy Murphy had 34 points… Damn.
EXCELLENT! I posted that bit about “The Vagina Monologues” too soon. In the Viewpoint section of the paper, Colleen McCarthy has an excellent and scathing piece entitled, “Can You Say Vagina?” She even uses the phrase “vagina prohibition”, which has to be some sort of record on our campus. Sweet.
The Observer has a nice article about Ruth Riley seeing the #1 up on top of Grace.
Apparently a performance of “The Vagina Monologues” was staged at SMC last year, and it was so controversial that it’s been banned from being performed this year. Supporters say that it created more positive discussion on women’s sexuality than anything they’ve experienced in college, and opponents claim that “issues of lesbianism and explicit discussions of sexuality” aren’t appropriate for a Catholic school. *sigh* That’s right idiots. Because it’s always better to ignore and deny reality than to educate and inform.
Semi-good news… BlogVoices, who provided us with our discussion system, might have somebody else lined up to take over the service. If that’s the case, we should be back up and running very soon. I’m still looking for alternatives though, so fear not, Sex Camels. 🙂
We had a gas leak at work last night and to evacuate the building! It was fun. They had it fixed within two hours, but it still made me feel like I was in a TV movie. I had a little fantasy about arriving at work this morning and turning the corner to find a smoking crater, but alas everything here is buzzing along like usual.
