This is Stephen's ballin' vehicle, which he has dubbed "Sweetness."  It is very turbocharged.  The roof scoop vents fresh air directly to the interior so he can breathe during those smoky drift sessions.










This is LaFawnduh. The racing stripes added 30 hp and the wing gives me some much needed downforce to handle all that power.

Warning: This paragraph may not be sarcastic. These are some of the coolest freshmen at Dordt right now.  Actually, the whole class is pretty sweet and has really added a lot to our school.  Click on the image to get a bigger look at what our future leadership looks like.  I can't wait to see what next year will bring us.

'Twas the night before Ideafest, when all through the lab,
Media majors suffered, even freshmen who gab;
The Avids were humming and heating the place,
and I hoped that no files would be erased;
Other children were nestled all snug in their beds,
As I faced audio problems with dread;
and Kelly buzzed on sugar and I looking for credit,
Had just settled in for a long night's edit...

Yeah, I really did write that at about 5:00 this morning.  I've commented in previous posts about sleep deprivation and how it isn't good for you, but I think this poem actually proves that being tired can improve one's artistic ability.  In fact, no fewer than ten people clicked the "like" button when I posted it on facebook (which, by the way, was definitely not a blatantly attention-seeking thing to do during an all-nighter).

I did do something original, too.  I made this.

A friend left his Explorer running outside a dorm.  We thought it was a waste of gas, so we served justice from a Heinz bottle.

I came up with a scientific hypothesis today.  It is about the fundamental difference between men and women.  And it is bigger than just length of hair or level of aversion to the color pink.  This is a serious breakthrough, so hold on to your seat.  The world of of behavioral science is about to take a kidney-punch to the kidneys.

"What else," you may wonder (and reasonably so), "is there to learn about the difference between men and women?  It's all been said."

We will see.  Tonight, I plan to scientifically gather data which will point to the fundamental difference between men and women.  Under conditions well suited to the experiment (a predicted low outside temperature of 260 Kelvin), my associates and I will sit in the lobby of a residence hall which is inhabited by both young men and women.  For an extended period of time, we will discretely observe and record the behavior of every person who leaves or enters through the main door.  And by midnight tonight, it will surely be proven:

Women, when entering through a door, tend to open the door much wider than necessary, while men tend to open the door only slightly wider than is necessary to fit through, assuming it is cold outside.

If you haven't heard yet, some crazy tried to b--w himself up on an airplane again.  (I'm just a little bit concerned I'll be put on a government watchlist for including that word on my blog- ed.)  So now they're tightening up security again.

At some point in the near future we won't be allowed to wear any clothes on the plane.
