  1. I think its a really grand piece of work, and obviously there will be plenty of debate over whether or not it's perfect or deserves a 10.0 blah blah blah. Anyway...I think it really does deserve the critical acclaim. For one it is a really layered album in the sense that it fits together as a whole album really brilliantly, and the songs both musically and lyrically are certainly more than one dimensional and really open to interpretation. But really where it earns the acclaim is that it is both a very ambitious album in terms of experimenting with different musical elements and completely
  2. I go to lunch and this thread turns into old ladys
  3. Yer damn right. New dining hall, but it kind of sucks given that its still all under construction. Oh well. Anyway, now for the actually going to eat business.
  4. Damn, they're like the plague. Ours also looks exactly like Harry Potter, which really doesn't help her much at all.
  5. Actually, here at Grinnell there is both a cape girl and a giant hat girl. For a while I thought they might be the same person, just because not too many people would be that absurd. But nope. Cape girl always wears her black cape, everywhere and in every season. And big hat girl has this black and white leapord print hat with purple velvet trim that's about the same size as an oversize sombrero...and never goes anywhere without it. How these people function in society is beyond me.
  6. Maybe wear a cape or mask or something when you turn this in. Just a suggestion.
  7. Night shift reporting for duty. I've got a bunch of reading I'm supposed to be doing right now...oh well...
  8. I think I'm pretty rocking at cooking, especially when it comes to anything involving fish...or making fake Indian food. However, dorm kitchens aren't exactly the best places to show off your skills.
  9. Or, you know, mail it to me, seeing as I don't have an ipod.
  10. I don't know, capping off wages at 10 to 20x the minimum wage is pretty extreme. I wouldn't exactly call it compromise. Anything capping wages is going to be looked at very unfavorably, no matter how it's designed...and would definitely be major incentive for extremely wealthy people to move to other countries. I think it really comes down to increasing the minimum wage, creating a good and affordable health care system in this country, keeping up good social programs, and just watching corporations so that they don't abuse their power.
  11. I'm not so much bothered by the fact that there are some ridiculously wealthy dudes out there. What bothers me is that basic things like health care are getting more expensive, and therefore harder to obtain for middle and lower class people. Rising gas prices are another thing that's obviously going to hit the less-well-off harder. But in a country that has so much prosperity, it's really kind of a dissapointment that wages aren't keeping up with inflation these days...and especially that minimum wage hasn't changed in a decade. I'm all for a little more distribution of wealth, or maybe.
  12. Nope...in fact this totally flew under my radar. Looks like another Fall 2006 release I can't afford to buy
  13. I dunno about me being a genius...especially given that ms paint is my best visual artistic medium, but Monty Python, that shit is brilliant.
  14. I don't get labor day off, in fact I have a paper due tomorrow
