the moral of this story, know what you're eating. i thought berkeley students made good decisions.
the good sort of spam. well, sort of.
"He's a good kid," his sister said. "He just has a problem with stealing cars." man, florida. what a state.
what makes me laugh about this story isn't really the content. it's the location of the story in relation to the location of the newspaper. and i feel sorry for the girl. the other day, she was refused entry into bungalow 8 in ny (post-vma) and now she's blowing dui level numbers.
dear cops, when you raid a farm, don't leave the contraband behind.
some guy's scorecard for the war on terror. i'm not sure, but i don't think this one is winnable. this stat makes me really feel like we're doing the right thing, "The typical sentences recently imposed on individuals considered to be international terrorists are not impressive. For all those convicted as a result of cases initiated in the two years after 9//11, for example, the median sentence -- half got more and half got less-- was 28 days. For those referrals that came in more recently -- through May 31, 2006 -- the median sentence was 20 days. For cases started in the two year period before the 9/11 attack, the typical sentence was much longer, 41 months."
now, i don't have a link to this story, but what about the "shocking" announcement pres. bush made yesterday? really, we've been using secret prisons? oh wait, that's been in the news for over a year. and, as we keep saying, those techniques that we're using aren't torture.

Seriously though, she's so thin, I'd be willing to bet a margarita puts her over the limit.
With regards to the Cloyne Court story:
The students in the co-ops are a special sort... Like frat boys are generally regarded as a type, so to are the co-op dwellers. Not at all representative of the Berkeley student (which would be the poorly socialized Asian science major of course...*)
Wasn't I just telling the story of the stolen pot plant when we were at Landmark a couple Fridays ago?
Incidentally, my friend and I were walking back to his apartment after dinner last night, he lives a block up from Cloyne and there was ridiculous amounts of police, ambulances, and firetrucks when we arrived but I didn't know what happened until I Googled "News Cloyne Berkeley" on my lunch break today.
Okay, my random story is done now.
* I kid.
i didn't realize the plant story was from the same place. that makes it funnier.
when i read that it was a co-op, i wondered if it truly was a co-op type set up or if it was just a fancy berkeley name for dorm.
