I swear the posts about the damn website are going to reduce in frequency, I really do. Today, however, I was reminded (again) that the International Board isn’t all the same. I had been reminded of this previously, but I was having a hard time seeing it. If they’re all as unique as they claim, [...]

…actually, what am I talking about? yes I do. I guess somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind I knew this day would come. Who would guess that it’d only take 6 weeks? Who would’ve thought that three members could put together a site that caused enough of a fuss that 19 governors would petition [...]

So I guess this email has been making the rounds? Well, if you haven’t seen it, you have now. Pass it along! Maybe we can get it recognized as a national holiday!

This morning I woke up before God and Satan to go do some membership recruitment for Circle K. We wrote on chalk boards all over campus (this idea was blatantly stolen from the Univ. of Michigan, as much as I hate to admit to that) We’ll see how it works. After that, however, I had my [...]

Michelle over at A Small Victory is reporing that one of Saddam’s bodyguards fleeing Iraq and raunning to Israeli authorities. She came upon the story in some austrailian newspaper or something. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad. Anyway, I basically agree with her sentiments on the matter, to quote: “It will be interesting to see [...]

Call me what you will, but I support war in Iraq. I’ve read and read and read posts talking about why it’s bad and why it’s good, and the thing that I can’t get out of my mind is “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” After 9/11 there was no shortage of [...]
