Also, the Washington Post Peeps Diorama Contest results are up. For those not native to the DC area, for the past four years, the Washington Post has this contest where you make little dioramas using the marshmallow Peeps they sell around Easter. It can be a scene from a movie, a ( Read more... )

I CAN HAS LIVE OLYMPICS!!!!!!!!!My dad and I finally figured it out over the phone, and now I can watch stuff as it happens as opposed to the time delay nonsense NBC is making us out West deal with. Of course, they doesn't offer coverage of all the sports on the site, but they are streaming hockey live, which means I don't have to scrounge around ( Read more... )

So some girl got stabbed outside the Anthropology building last night.

I suppose I could re-watch "Changing Channels"; I need to anyways for my final paper on humor and the apocalypse, but I'm not feeling ( Read more... )
