Apparently Monk invited Bush and Gore to visit campus! Dubya turned ’em down in favor of kissing babies in Pennsylvania, but Gore still might put in an appearance. That would kick ass.
Football
This guy on ESPN is saying we could finish the season 9-2.
Peeps
Holy cow! There’s a new kind o’ Peeps! They look like little gingerbread people. But hey! Whatever happened to Scary Cats? I SWEAR they used to make orange cats for Halloween. Eileen licked one sophomore year and stuck it to our dorm room door. It stayed there until we chipped it off six months later.
Rent
Now I liked RENT and all… but I don’t think I’d ever write a cheesy newspaper article equating Roger’s depression with my own career indecisions.

Interesting. The Women’s Resource Center clarifies its probation status. I like the subtle bit about censorship.
Weasel Football
Weasel Football Update: A whole story on the PW-OC game. (It was written before the game.) Again, the Weasel coaches are cracking my shit up. This week’s quote: “Our defense has been phenomenal all year, reminiscent of the Minnesota Vikings’ ‘Purple People Eaters’ of the 1970’s. We’re working on fine tuning the offense for the playoffs,” [Coach Tony Baldea] said.
Ugh.
Now that I’ve got the enthusiasm out of my system… This article talks about why ND still sucks. We’ve got the 106th ranked offense, people, out of only 114 teams. Perhaps that explains why we’re not ranked on the ESPN poll, even though we are on the AP one.
Hooray
Oh, wasn’t it a glorious weekend in sports? Mets win, Braves lose, and ND’s back in the top 25. Hooray!
Sniff
You guys. Seriously. Read this story. It made me cry and cry.
Weasel Football
Weasel Football Update: The girls managed a 0-0 tie against BP this week to improve their record to 2-0-2 (I think). The defense remained impressive with multiple sacks and interceptions, but the offense just seemed to stall at crucial times. They’re looking into adding some new plays to shake things up. The Weasels are almost certainly guaranteed a playoff berth now, but they’ve still got one crucial game to go: the Off-Campus Crime this weekend. So, HEY, you Benedict Weasels playing on the OC team… (and YES, Erin Place, I’m looking at you). Just REMEMBER where your true loyalties are, okay? Now I’m not saying you should throw the game or anything. Just think about who you’re lining up against, okay? We all bleed purple underneath. Once a Weasel, always a Weasel… Know what I’m sayin’? 🙂
