The Thanksgiving holidays seem to be a great time to share with friends and family. The problem is that, Tuesday past, my work ethic really did just up and leave – and however rejuvenating our marvelous Turkey Day was, that doesn’t really gear us up for the finals ahead. That, and it seems to never stop snowing around here. So… I offer you a one-minute laughter break, to read some of the silly things I’ve heard around and about.

“My face tastes like cookie.”

- Lucy Brock Center

“Trees are solar powered. They are sustainable!”

- Katherine Harper Hall 

“He went to school in Florida. Their years are all messed up down there.”

- Plemmons Student Union

Person 1 – “Are you going to Chem Lab?”

Person 2 – “Nope. I’m going to SNOWBALL 101!”

- Beside Varsity Gym

Person 1 – “How much is a Latte?”

Person 2 – “Oh, about a thousand dollars.”

- Crossroads Coffee Shop

“He hung up on me… well, it wasn’t like I was gonna listen to him anyway.”

- Residence Hall Lobby

As you near the end of your frivolous blog reading, I regret to inform you that this may be the last time you (over)hear from me this semester. Never fear, I will return in January to plague your eyes with the witticisms that plague my ears. Behave, and keep an ear out for Santa – never know what that old man will say next.
