Every Thursday night of freshman year, my girlfriends and I would hooch ourselves up, blare music through Roosevelt 307, tuck our obviously fake IDs and $6 into our pockets, and hot-foot it to the bus stop for the riotous ride to PJ's.

Have you ever realized some force is aggressively acting against you, perhaps in combination with all of Nature and the National Parks Service? I did several years ago, and now know there is a broad conspiracy to prevent me from arriving anywhere on time. Although I have yet to determine the mastermind behind it, I can tell you the plot involves major airlines, the French rail system, the Hadley shuttle, and, of course, all of Nature and the National Parks Service.

The Putnam's food court teemed with members of UB fraternities, sororities and two men's varsity athletic teams for several hours Tuesday, dominating the central dining area.

The Sept. 11 terrorists were certainly misguided. Instead of hitting the World Trade Center, they should have crashed into the Mall of America.

At 18, Jamie had a baby. It was not, contradictory to Hallmark sentiment, a very happy occasion. She attended her high school graduation six months pregnant and, instead of spending the summer growing into young adulthood, gained 40 pounds and read childcare books.

It happened to me. And it will happen to you.

Top administrators in the UB School of Management have expressed confidence in a member of the SOM dean's advisory council and former Enron senior director of investor relations, Elizabeth N. Ivers, despite the energy company's swelling notoriety.

About a month ago an obscure UB administrator told me that The Spectrum makes him laugh. He said the paper is funny because it covers the same issues over and over, and insinuated the whole effort is an over-excited chronicle of trifling events. A grandfather nearing retirement, he has long since abandoned discovering the eventualities of life.

Last week, Buffalo officials announced the impending layoffs of 433 teachers from the city's school system. The result of a $28-million budget gap that, before Sept. 11, was expected to be filled by state aid, the layoffs present Buffalo with a plate teeming with problems. The total number of school system employees awaiting pink slips is nearly 600, creating an immediate problem for public officials trying to keep the city's economy afloat and its citizens' pockets lined with more than Queen City lint.

Remember the awful, satisfying feeling that set in Halloween night after you'd eaten three or four pounds of mini-Mars bars? Or the descending lurch that swirled your abdomen when the teacher caught you talking in class? Or how about the anger that inflated somewhere around your navel before rising to your throat when Jimmy got picked for the cool kids' dodgeball team even though he always got hit before you did?

You've got to respect the football team - and not because they won. I'll grant you one in the W column, especially as it's the team's first in 18 road games, is something of a novel triumph and deserves the appropriate accolades, but the reason they deserve respect is not that they won, but that they played. And so does anyone else with the courage to leave the safe, dark corners of the immobile masses and expose himself to public scrutiny.

In response to the Pentagon and World Trade Center disasters, the undergraduate Student Association and Sub Board I, Inc. have postponed Fall Fest 2001, originally scheduled for this afternoon, until late September or early October.

SA is doing a serious disservice to its constituents by staging the Miss UB Contest at Fall Fest. It will serve only to discourage already tentative student morale and weaken whatever bonds have lately formed between its fragmented sub-groups.
