A semester in review
Editorial
Date created: 5/21/04 Section: OPINION
Issue 4:
Also known as the conflict and controversy issue, in which you didn't get into the conflict and controversy until you hit our popular April Fools' pull-out. Not only did we lose our staff illustrator after this issue, but we caused such an uproar with that issue that we got a whopping total of one complaint. Thank you for showing me the error in our ways. I will request that "Ask Pimptatious" be made a permanent addition to this paper in the fall. At least I hope that Dan Savage would approve of the satire.
Issue 5:
HOLY BAT GUANO! Dr. Frances White is leaving!
We also saw the return of "What the...!"
And then my staff ran away to go to a convention while I was left here to drown my sorrows in a tall root beer.
Issue 6:
Mmm... pie! No matter what has gone on, or will go on within this paper, pie makes it all better. Unfortunately, chocolate cream pie and Frank's "I'm Mentioning" don't blend well.
Issue 7:
The end of the road. The line in the sand. The final nail in my coffin. Stick a fork in me, for I am done. So long and thanks for all the fish (wrappers).
Thank you all for the fond memories and putting up with my esoteric choices in music. It has been a wonderful experience. Special thanks to Charlie Caudill for doing such a wonderful job coming in and advising us.
So long and thanks for all the fish!
