SHORTZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Shorts are Wednesday at 3:30 and Thursday at 6:00. Some of your friends will have to kiss each other. You wouldn’t want to miss that, would you?

Folders
We have set up folders on the bulletin board of the main floor of the library, the main floor of the science center, outside the Senior Rec Room, and in upper Cummins. If you can’t find the DU at all, go to one of those locations.

Florida…
It is a bad time to be a Floridian NFL fan:
 The state of Florida itself
 Jacksonville Jaguars (1-8)
 Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-8)
 Miami Dolphins (4-5)
+Richie Incognito
A big swampy mess.

NFL quote of the day
“If you wouldn’t’a did what you wouldn’t’a did, then we wouldn’t’a been where we was at to get where we at.”
-Does it matter?

Who Needs Brain Cells When You Have Swag?
By: Ryan Hastings (Rap God)

                The next time someone complains that their rap music needs to be taken a little more seriously, I am going to wordlessly hand them this list:

Just think if I ain't empty the clip, and he killed me, would I still be living?" – Young Buck

If I ain’t open the door, would the door still be closed?

"Weezy F. Baby and the 'F' is for phenomenal." - Lil Wayne

Lil Wayne clearly did not do too well in his fifth grade spelling bee.

"Always been about them horizontal lines through them 'S's, that's a dollar sign." – Chamillionaire

If the line is horizontal, you get cash money instead of ca$h money.  Wouldn’t want that.

"My paragraph alone is worth five mics; A twelve song LP, that's thirty-six mics." – Redman


Any way you multiply 5, you’re not getting 36.

"I can double my density from 360 degrees to 720 instantly." - Canibus

Centimeters per square inch just didn’t sound right.

"32 grams raw, chop it in half, get 16, double it times three; we got 48, which mean a whole lot of cream; divide the profit by four, subtract it by eight; we back to 16." - Foxy Brown

 

Even IF doubling it times three existed, this arithmetic would still be wrong.

 

"I'm Rondo with the bongos." - Pusha T

 

Yeah, well I’m Derrick Rose writin’ polyphonic prose!  Hurray for two things that rhyme but do not relate!

 

"There's three of us, but we're not the Beatles." - Run–D.M.C.

An Apology

By: Greg Feiner (Idiot-In-Chief)


                The other day, I was sitting in adivsory, and was starting to feel the impact of all the orange juice I had had with my bagel that morning. I left Ms. Bell’s room and began the familiar walk down the hall toward the boys bathroom of lower Bentham.
                For those who do not frequent  this particular bathroom, this door, like most (if not all) bathroom doors at school, is a push-open door. This cruel detail would prove to make for a most fateful bathroom break.
                I continued to walk down the hall, drowsy from a long night’s work. I probably yawned or something. Mr. Assaf issued a “hey, buddy” in my direction as he walked out of view.
                At last I had arrived, but just as I extended a hand to push the door open, time slowed down as I helplessly watched the following event take place, unable to prevent it.
                Just as I was about to make contact with the door, one of the Spanish teachers (who I later learned was Señor Leonor) opened the door. To make matters worse, I’m fairly tall, so the height at which I had positioned my hand was the same height as his face.
                So, instead of pushing the bathroom door open, I pushed Señor Leonor’s face out of my way.
                Of all the dumb things that I have done, this is by far the most ridiculous scenario I’ve ever found myself in.
                I would like to apologize to Señor Leonor. I did not mean to escort him out of the bathroom Heisman style. It was merely a most unfortunate coincidence. Terrible timing, really. I did not mean to embarrass him in any way.
                At least we both got an interesting story out of it.
