Weekend In Review
1. Michigan Wolverines- Handled the uniquely named "Wildcats" of Norhtwestern. Only 3 weeks to go before the "most meaningful event that has ever happened since time began." I am holding my breath.
2. Da Bears- A truly dominating performance for a truly dominant team. The 49ers are who we thought they were.
3.Halloween- I went to a pleasant Halloween party dressed as the guy who doesn't wear a costume. Much merriment was had.
4.Election 2006Only a week to go. Will the Democrats regain both chambers of Congress? Will Osama make an appearence? Who is Al-Qaeda voting for? Who really represents American values? We shall find out on November 7.
5.A new team member- Everyone welcome new team member, Gsus. He is an accomplished yearbook writer and his concise, succint, cohesive writing style should enhance the content of this blog immensely.
6.English Phrases-I resent how certain people living abroad in London sign their emails, "Cheers" and refer to the US as the "States." It's "thanks" and the "The United States of America and it's outlying terriotories", not the "States." Further use of these phrases will result in *grave* consequences. You have been warned.

Anytime I hear anyone say "Oh, I'm going to the States for Christmas Break," the urge to smack them is almost unbearable. The United States of America and its Outlying Territories is the not the only country with states. Mexico, for example, has many states.
Also, the imagined person who said this would also be punished for their use of "Christmas Break", as winter break is the only acceptable term.
