I'll be attending the University of St. Thomas School of Law in Minneapolis next year...now I only have to find a place to live!

Finished finals last week...only had two (Marketing Channels and Marketing Strategy), not too bad. Hard to believe I'm a college graduate, that hasn't sunk in yet.

Just saw "Singles" for the first time...GREAT soundtrack. And appearances by 3/5 of Pearl Jam, Chris Cornell and Kim Thayil, and Alice in Chains.

I'll fully admit my Hoosier bias on this one, but I'd love to see the Bears draft Tandon Doss. I think he projected in the 4th-5th, so if they can grab him in the 5th that'd be awesome. Very fast, great hands, very good lateral movement. Basically a not-quite-as-good DeSean Jackson.

This is awesome -- vintage sex-ed posters! It's not too bad, but probably NSFW. http://www.100yearsofsex.org/posters

Tonight was weird.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Apr 18, 2011 -> 02:31 AM) Haven't been able to spend much time with Val because he has spent a ton of time preparing for his presentations. Will Forte made a bit of a surprise appearance to introduce Val for his presentation, and had less going on, so we've been able to hang out with him quite a bit more. That was just fine by me. He has been an absolute blast to hang out with and even gave me $20. It's been an incredible weekend, to say the least, and doesn't really end until like 3-4 PM tomorrow. That's pretty nifty. Has Kilmer been a jerkoff?

Crawford has been pretty solid this series, there's way more I'm worried about than him.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Apr 17, 2011 -> 09:58 PM) That piece of s*** needs to be suspended again. I like the commentators idea of suspending him for 8 games.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Apr 15, 2011 -> 11:04 AM) If a company wanted to steal marketshare quickly, they could offer ala carte cable. I would jump on it so hard. I thought there was some "technical" reason that a la carte isn't feasible, but I could be making that up. I would love to start me up an a la carte cable company, I feel I'd make billions.

Love the Foos, but I disagree as to self-titled being the best. Their best, IMO, is The Colour and the Shape, followed by There Is Nothing Left to Lose and then Self-Titled.

QUOTE (He_Gawn @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 08:37 PM) Haha no doubt, it was moreso for the entertainment lineup they have planned. Unbelievable. Like I said in the catch-all, I think the past two years were better. Though Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj, Wiz Khalifa, Gucci Mane, Rick Ross, Chiddy Bang, and Pretty Lights is nothing to sneeze at. And as for the "get down to Btown for Little 5" comment...definitely. But not for the specials (because there aren't really any...the bars don't need specials to make people come out this week). Mostly just because Little 5 is absolutely insane, but I feel most of that happens at the general debauchery going on at houses, as well as bars.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 09:01 PM) Anything good on the schedule this year? For concerts, I assume? I was actually kinda pissed, usually Union Board gets some sort of "rock" act and the frats will get rap/hip hop. However, this year Union Board got Lil Wayne, Nicki Minaj and Rick Ross (and Wiz Khalifa in a separate show). The frats have Chiddy Bang and Pretty Lights, as well as Gucci Mane (if he can even perform now, given his arrest). Not as good as sophomore year, when we had Flight of the Conchords, Wilco, and Ludacris (as well as Wiz Khalifa, before he was as well known to the mainstream as he is now), and Soulja Boy, or last year when there was Flaming Lips, Snoop Dogg, LMFAO, and Mike Posner.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Apr 11, 2011 -> 11:25 AM) Uh, yes, the Foo Fighters are f***ing huge. And yes, Monkey Wrench rocks. Quoted for Truth. Digging the new album. I like "Bridge Burning" "Dear Rosemary" and "Arlandria" a lot.

Little 500 week is here. Get ready for insanity ladies and gents.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Apr 8, 2011 -> 02:17 AM) I have no idea how it's your first time but I would like to join the Tadahito Iguchi fan club immediately. Done.

There are soo many times I could have posted in this thread this semester. How is this the first time? Whack I tell you...whack.

I am predicting IU will pay homage to the '76 team and go undefeated and win the national championship.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 5, 2011 -> 06:57 PM) Nothing would make the mainstream Democrats happier than to have a straight up race between Obama and Palin (or Obama and Bachmann) in 2012. Well, part of me would be a little scared by the very slim chance one of the two right wing crazies would win.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Apr 4, 2011 -> 12:44 PM) The Borgias started off kind of slow last night. Makes sense that they have to set some things up. Still looking forward to the rest of the season Yeah, I mean it was essentially a movie...1 hr 36 minutes is the longest pilot I've ever watched.

If Weber bolted for Norman, who are the reasonable candidates to replace him?

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 30, 2011 -> 09:38 PM) So I went to this. I was very disappointed. For a microbrew, they only had like 4 of their own beers and i'm pretty sure 3 of them were IPAs. I feel like there's some sort of mentality among craft brew snobs that if you don't like IPAs (or anything real hoppy), you're a pansy. Granted, I've talked to a few brewers themselves, and they say that's not the case at all...the common theme was, "If we brew it, we like it."
