So, Another Three More Years Before He’s Homeless?
I’m not a very diligent human being. In fact, I could probably walk past a thousand people today and they’d all be working hard, brains clicking, and figuring out the problems of the Earth (aka some random bullshit to put on their next paper). But I learned awhile back that laziness doesn’t get you much [...]
Just When You Thought You Were Out…
In the past few months, I’ve witness almost all the possible buzz you can dig up about Allison Stokke, and I’m rather exhausted by the whole thing. I’d like to move on as soon as possible with reality, which is that she’ll be a damned awesome athlete. The only thing that would make me revive [...]
A Word From the Messopotamians…
In case you do things like travel the world or follow the news, Iraq might not be very high on your “places to see” list. What’s going on there isn’t something we like to talk about too often, simply because the ensuing discussion would be anything but
Nevertheless, if you also happen to be one of [...]

Our first contest deals with frats. I’ll let you people start writing the jokes.
Downloading Simplicity, Part VI–Sumatra
Hey, remember how I said a few weeks ago that Foxit Reader will now supplant all your PDF needs and get you off of Adobe forever? Well, that’s so a July thing. Now we’ve found something even sleeker for your happiness. Enter Sumatra, an even smaller, faster, more efficient version of Foxit, that will help [...]
756: What It Means to Everyone Else
Sorry we were away for a day. But we just felt the need to come up with something special to say about our main man Barry Bonds. There were just so many words that came to mind here that we couldn’t put them down onto paper without the result being a complete mess of a [...]
In Theory, This Could Work…
In another one of those “sounds great on paper” ideas, you can now move between the Bay and LA for as little as a dollar and as much as nine. We will let you ponder whether you will enjoy the company of your equally cheap passengers.
The intercity express bus company Megabus.com plans to begin daily [...]
Now Here’s One Athlete Who’s Embraced Her Looks
We move from one Cal female athlete who supposedly shies away from the limelight to one who properly embraces it. Elizabeth Dindial, who graduated last year from Cal, has been utilizing her physical talents to maximal advantage to help educate, inform, and help us all.
Oh yeah, and she’s pretty. Pretty intelligent. Is that clear? We [...]
The Bears Are Roaring: Blog Roundup
Old Lady Syndrome: I’ve said all along that road maintenance should be a political platform.
Once in awhile we just have to keep those bridges up.

Mom really needs to get back in the kitchen.

Bar exams are done. Let the commiserating and the boozing commence.

One Home Run Away From Never Mentioning Barry Bonds Again
One thing that’s always annoying about baseball (not our favorite sport) is its insistence on the sanctity of its records. Oh really? Roger Maris’s 61 home runs gets an asterisk because he played eight more games, yet Mark McGwire and Sosa are paraded around with their bulging muscles and supplements? Babe Ruth gets a pass [...]
