Right now, I should be enjoying 25 to life. Not that I'm looking forward to prison time, but I was eagerly awaiting the Oct. 1 release of the new shoot-'em-up video game "25 to Life." Now I have to wait until some time in 2006, and while the makers at Eidos claim it was pushed back to make some improvements, I know it was because of a lawyer named Jack Thompson.

If you've ever wondered why your cell phone fails to work in other countries, it's because cells operate on different codes. Since not all manufacturers can play nice and use the same code, different countries have developed their own in hopes of marketing them worldwide.

In the infinite wisdom of our criminal justice system, Krystal Miller was just released into her father's custody on house arrest. You know, she's the sweet little 15-year-old who was plotting to blow up her school and shoot a few people at Gilbert High.

While I plan my upcoming trip to Thailand, every person I encounter asks if I am worried about the mysterious Asian flu. I have seen the pictures on the news of Asian mothers holding their children while wearing "TB masks."

I have the solution to our state's budget problems. This epiphany came to me while reading about the noble work of traffic law enforcement. Consider the brilliance of the photo-enforced ticket. It's simple, fast and cheap.

In case this is the first thing you have read since returning from the break, we are at war. But unlike the war on terrorism, where countries jumped at the chance to help us, this war has encountered some resistance.

We are a generation faithful to our way of entertainment. Youngsters spend most of their spare money on outlandishly priced CDs, yet the vampires of the entertainment business have not yet sucked enough of our blood, it seems.

As if the tuition increase at ASU weren't enough, the community colleges are following in our footsteps. The 10 Maricopa community colleges intend to bump up their tuition another $5 per credit hour by this summer - marking the largest increase in 10 years.

The fine history professors here at ASU have taught me many things, but none more accurate than this: If you want something screwed up, put it in the hands of the government.

Going off to war has always evoked some fear in soldiers. For the French, it was dying in the trenches. For the Germans, it was the harsh Russian winter. For our troops preparing to fight for us in the Middle East it is libido. The multitude of vaccines, the possibility of chemical agents and the idea of hanging around depleted uranium all day has spawned noteworthy concern for our soldiers' ability to reproduce.

In order to thank President Bush for his generous proposal to help Africa with AIDS relief, South Africa's former president, Nelson Mandela, was kind enough to say that Bush has "no foresight and cannot think properly."

Americans are not completely in favor of the pending war. Last weekend several thousand people gathered in Washington, D.C., some evoking the memory of Martin Luther King Jr., others parading the FBI headquarters, all making their voices ring clear: We do not want to rush into another war.

I'm growing tired of incompetence in government spending, but it could be worse--I could live in Chicago. Understand, I'm a fan of swearing, and I only refrain from letting the profanities loose now to show a little savior faire, but the noble legislators in the Windy City have decided to elevate the penalty for public profanity from a simple citation to a fine of up to $300.

While tipping a pint of Tecate at the Hard Rock Café, my friend Marcos, an ASU student of political science, asked me what I thought about the proposed tuition hike at ASU. If only he had known that I felt so strongly about it, he probably would have held his question.

If the coming winter has got you down, try an energy drink to make you think and feel better. That's what the new line of beverages is all about, after all — making us better.
