Paranoia 101

 

Dearest Lickable Libs,

 

Many things have/will come to pass... 

 

For those of you observing Passover, I wish you a happy one! 

 

Secondly, if you weren't fortunate enough to join the Libs on the trip to NYC, you should definitely corner those who went and demand details.  So far I've heard interesting things about Diane Keaton, an umbrella, and a gay bar...  Many thanks go to Betsy (for the wonderful job organizing) and to Jason (for the use of the apartment).

 

Lastly, for a short rambling on my life (because I know it interests you all terribly):    Tonight marks the first night of Pierson Assassins.  Paranoia has already begun to take a firm hold on the players, and the game has only been underway for a few hours.  Friends have been pitted against friends, and some have already betrayed that trust and killed a comrade.  So much for brotherly love.  You know, it's no wonder people living under military regimes are so paranoid; there's nothing quite like having one of your best friends invite you over only to shoot you in the chest to make you question the motives of others.  Until this game is over, I'll be the one skulking about in all black and hooded sweatshirts, jumping at every small noise.  Not exactly the most relaxed way to live life, so I may need a massage and a stiff drink after this is all done.

Lib Dinner

*Monday, April 5th at 5:30 in the Branford Pit*

Dining hall food.... Mmmmmm, scrumptious....  All right, so come for the company, not the food!

 

Discussion - " 'Art for art's sake' isn't good enough."

*Tuesday, April 6th at 7:30 in the Calhoun Common Room*

Should art just be taken as is?  Is that enough?  Should there be a deeper meaning?  Should it be an impetus for social change?  Come share your views on this and more at this week's Lib discussion!

 

YPU - Party Prize Debate: "Resolved: Amnesty Is The Solution To The Immigration Problem."

*Wednesday, April 7th at 7:30 in WLH 119*

We need one Lib to speak in the affirmative and one to speak in the negative!  Two members from each party will debate for glory and, obviously, the right to gloat over the other parties.  Come lend some support to your fellow Libs and try to outwit the other parties' speakers by asking lots of thought-provoking questions.  Also, there are only TWO meetings left to qual for us!  (You need to sign in for THREE total to qual.)  This is getting down to the wire folks, so come to the YPU this week!  It should be a good one!

Hot IPster of the Week:

 

Jenny Rost

I think the real question here is who wouldn't want to be whipped by Jenny?

 

The Lib Bitch:

Just because I bumped into you at a party, doesn't mean I give a shit.

 

Your ticket's not in your umbrella, dear.

 

It's bad enough that the buttons on my mouse stick, but now the shift key has to stick too?!  WTF.  You never know how much you use the left shift key until it's nonfunctional.
