…who needs to go to college? Well, we did, and this is how we end a party. Sometime we do it to get people to leave. But this night, everyone but us, my sister and the two DJs were gone.
Music was added for dramatic effect.
They said it was going to be big, and it kinda was.
Here is a video, well photos, I shot for the Kalamazoo Gazette of the 2011 Groundhog Day Blizzard.

I ended a four-month internship today at the Jackson Citizen Patriot. I had a great time working with the staff in the newsroom and covering cops
Here are some of my favorite stories that I wrote there.

I love birds. Almost as much as they love each other.

After a break, here comes the rest of the Sparks rarities. Tonight, we go into orbit with “Sparks in Outer Space.”
“Mini Skirted” is a nice commentary on the mini skirt. Remember how much of a shock the “less is more” skirt was in ‘63. The alternative version of ”All You Ever Think About is Sex” [...]
possibly inspired by the track posted two days ago, “Dancing is Dangerous” and “Is There More to Life than Dancing” is the awnswer to sparks disco. Yes, the whole No. 1 in Heaven album is dancetasktik, but the two selections (that fade into one another) are choice.
All else that I will say is that the [...]
I think I fell asleep in the classroom, the same classroom that Aaron Milton does in the film “Cherry,” which was filmed on campus at Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo College, and throughout downtown Kalamazoo. The film was like an introverted “Where’s Waldo” —the audience Thursday night was looking for all the Kalamazoo landmarks they could find. [...]
Ah, the most profound song: “Love can conquer all” — challenging (or glibbly embracing) the fact that no one can amount to anything if they are not constantly in a relationship, infatuated, or in love.
A short, sweet, possibly television theme “The Ablongs” (possibly Oblongs?) is sandwiched between the two version of Love Can Conquer All. [...]
In keeping with the two year tradition, I will be uploading some rare Sparks songs this up coming week.
“I have traveled the length and breadth of Alabama, Mississippi and all the other southern states. On sweltering summer days and crisp autumn mornings I have looked at the South’s beautiful churches with their lofty spires pointing heavenward. I have beheld the impressive outlines of her massive religious education buildings. Over and over I have found [...]

What went into the creation of the new EcoMug?
One part environmental stewardship. One part economic savings. One part student zeal.
As some 5,000 EcoMugs are making their ways into the hands of first year students when they check in to the residence halls, it is a plan that has been in the works since [...]
Last night I got wasted. Well, at least I acted like I did.
There were about six parties I was invited too - a lot of acquaintances were getting ready to move into new apartments and wanted to have one last “hurrah” in their places. It was to be a 2008-09 party revue.
Drinking at college is a [...]

Dunn attributed the deficit to a cut in state funding, an increase in salaries and benefits for WMU employees, growing university operating costs and [...]
