Things are always better on the other side.
Many have argued with me, "an only child," that public showering would be a big deal.... Well - it really isn't. When you've got a 'lil shower curtain in a 'lil stall in a 'lil shower hall -- everything's just peachy.
However, when you're 6'4" you don't really tend to appreciate a shower head that stands a tad over 5'8".

Finally this evening - more drunken antics have begun to fill the floor/hall... They get an early start down here.
Hell - at least they're more friendly.

It's interesting to me how thousands of 18-19 year olds can be summoned to one city for one common goal, and yet still never bother to say hello to the peers whom they'll be spending the next 8 months with.
Welcome to Ball State University -- Clevenger Hall, part of the "Ghetto" dorms here on campus.
Okay - so these dorms, nay "Residence Halls," aren't in the middle of bumf*cking nowhere.... but I still have a few ceiling tiles missing from above.
Move-in day was successful, as mother nature waited until well after the night was started to initiate her natural pyrotechnics display. Yet, there's still an interesting crowd that was well on their way to creating their own fire.
Ball State is (for better or worse) known as High School2. Many kids are accepted here with mediocre grades, while others are the tops in their class. And then, there's the middle ground.
The "young adults" who haven't quite figured out who they are or who they want to be - they just know (or believe) that Abercrombie, Hollister and the like are still acceptable fashions at school.
...even on a school day.
Many of the people I've encountered today, and I use that term seriously, have been kind enough to mutter a "hey," but very rarely* did they introduce themselves.
Alright - so I didn't always either -- but I at least tried to carry on conversation. More times than not, these guys were too concerned with unpacking their egos, amongst other things.
Our bathrooms are sans urinals - why I do not know. I guess it helps make the "Residence Hall" seem like home.
All things considered - it was a rather hot, but easy-going day.
Besides - I know people will be coming to visit as the year goes on...
After all - I did figure out how to bypass the firewall blocking kazaa....
*very rarely = never

Spoiled food may be behind NYC illnesses
What can be worse than NYC in a total blackout condition?
Everyone in the whole city trying to take a sh*t at once.
Coverage of son lacked journalistic integrity
A letter to the Miami Herald Editor where a pissed father writes in to verbally defend his "jailbird" son.
Piss and moan.... Piss and moan...
Beer thief rolls out the barrel
BERLIN (Reuters) - German police arrested a 16-year-old youth on suspicion of theft after catching him rolling a 50 litre (90 pint) barrel of beer through the streets of the western town of Rheine, authorities say.
Police are still searching for the barrel's owner.
Which, in Germany, could be anybody.
Al-Qaida claims power blackout:
Al-Qaida has claimed responsibility for the worst blackout in U.S. history which affected 50 million residents across the Northeast and Midwest as well as parts of southern Canada, according to the Arab newspaper Al-Hayat.
We can laugh and chuckle all we want about the theory, but until I see solid evidence pointing elsewhere... I'm tempted to believe them.
Comments?
IU falls from the top of the party school mountain; CU officials bitch about student's new claim to fame:
BOULDER (AP) - The University of Colorado, where a six-year effort to curb binge drinking ended this spring without making a dent, is the nation's No. 1 party school.
IU, by the way, finished in a strong but dissapointing third place.
