"Adios, Dos Gringos."
A Cameron Crowe movie moment
"So this morning, I was walking from the west end of campus back to my parking garage, having one of the worst mornings I've ever had, and I look to my left and I see the single most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my entire life. She had dark skin and a light blue top and this awesome, sexy, tasteful tattoo on her hip, and she actually smiled. And I had one of those Cameron Crowe movie moments. I've never even thought they existed. Everything went out of focus. I had like three whole seconds of Matrix bullet-time looking at this girl.
And then my inner monologue kicked in and started saying, "No, she's gotta have a boyfriend, and you're wearing the worst shirt you own," and about 100,000 other things, and I walk next to her for like five minutes, trying to look at her but not look at her. And I finally swallow hard, and I work up the nerve, and I turn to my left. And she wasn't there anymore. It was heartbreaking.
But, in case you print this, and in case she reads this, I just want to say thanks for making my day a whole lot better. You're gorgeous."
An important message from Bryan Wynne
"Hey, State Press, it's Bryan Wynne. I was reading the article ("Talk Back" March 22), and it says here that Bryan Wynne says Bryan Wynne too much. And I personally don't think that Bryan Wynne says Bryan Wynne too much because Bryan Wynne wants everyone to Bryan Wynne Bryan Wynne Bryan Wynne. So if you don't Bryan Wynne, make sure you Bryan Wynne on your Bryan Wynne, or Bryan Wynne might just Bryan Wynne. Dogs are better than cats."
Looking after Bryan Wynnes everywhere
"Yo yo, it's Bryan Wynne. Not the same Bryan Wynne that usually makes himself present at all of these Talk Back line things, but a Bryan Wynne nonetheless. I have called in to expound upon my utter disbelief that 'Crazy C' would give Bryan Wynne such a hard time. Bryan Wynne's not just looking after Bryan Wynne here, Bryan Wynne is looking out for Bryan Wynnes everywhere. I hereby call 'Crazy C' out to a duel at high noon at the Memorial Union fountain. 'Crazy C,' if you are manly enough to accept my duel, call back Talk Line and set up ... an appointment ... and stuff."
It sucks to have no FLASH
"So, getting on the bus today -- what bus? -- for University, it sucked. Hello? How many people didn't even know that Mill Avenue was going to be closed and the University FLASH wasn't going to be running? That sucks. Just thought I'd let you know how much that totally sucked."
