‘Twilight: Eclipse’ Compared to Horribe Car Accident, But Better than ‘New Moon’

The third installment in Stephenie Meyer’s ridiculous “vampire” series hit theaters on Wednesday and in spite of my better judgment I went to go see it this weekend. Though I am in no way a fan of the series, I still chose to watch it. “Why would you subject yourself to such torture, Gabrielle?”...

New Last Minute SGA Presidential Ticket?

This past week I’ve heard a lot of blah, blah, blah from the two tickets running for SGA President and Vice President. Well I’m tired of hearing the same old crap. I’m tired of listening to trite SGA drama. And I’m tired of voting for whoever has the coolest t-shirt! Ladies and Gentlemen, that’s...

2009: A Year in Review (National)
