Best Week Ever: No nudity
Emily Bisso
Issue date: 3/16/05 Section: Distractions
THIS WEEK'S TOPICS INCLUDE...
1. Portable party
So, recently, I got a phone call at midnight from some anonymous boys claiming that they were going to come over. I said we were sleeping. So I should have expected that at 2 a.m. the same boys would show up at our house (and a couple other honored homes) complete with a boombox, some serious Euro techno, and dance skills...sobriety-free. They also left other presents. This adventure has taken on a mind of its own - PP has now struck a number of girl abodes and left their mark - and at the moment our front porch has "portable party" spray painted all over it and lots of horse manure to evidence the presence of these party peeps. At least our garden will look great in a few weeks.
2. Waffle House
After giving Stop-In top honors last week, I realized that Waffle House can't just be left out in the cold like that. I mean, choosing between these two is like asking me which of my children I love most...if I had children. That being said, I felt so bad for forsaking the big WH that it became the hot spot this weekend...and for the record, they close the grill at 4:30 and run out of whipped cream frequently. And, they don't accept the W&L swipe card.
3. Pledgeship over
Freshmen boys everywhere rejoiced. The light at the end of the tunnel has finally arrived...just in time for the sophomore year ego trip. But at least we got to see you at your drunken finest this weekend...and what a weekend it was.
4. But, on the topic of pledgeship...
Way to go, Phi, for scooping this one...but Phi Psi's open hell week was pretty impressive. Tai chi on the lawn? Check. Boombox a necessity? Check check. Tight, body-hugging outfits that show off your full potential? Score, triple check.
SIZZLER: Matt "I Wallace" Wallace, would like everyone to know that he has class with superfox Prince William...scorcher.
UPGRADE/DOWNGRADE: FD
Ok, here's how I see it: lots of fun pre-parties that begin the week before. Dressing up. Parties that happen in-town for once. Hard work from the student body. UPGRADE
And, the cons: dressing up. Police. Tickets. Ambivalence about date-asking. The actual function. The large, obstrusive hieroglyphics. The morning after. DOWNGRADE
AND WHO HAD THE BEST WEEK EVER? Thomas Goodrich's facebook group
I don't really even know this dude, but I just joined his facebook group and await my officership. The man, the myth, the legend - he seems to touch everyone he knows. No, literally. His picture is of him, naked, in Billy Arnold's bed. These guys have a real thing with being naked...first Wilson, then this guy Thomas. Way to go. I just want people to get to know Thomas, because at this point I kind of want to get to know Thomas...if only for his striking good looks and slammin' game. When asked for comment, Goodrich just smiled slyly and said, "I love spaghetti."
