In response to my previous post, Anthony Gaenzle writes:

Seriously you have that much time on your hands that you have to belittle aspiring artists. Yes, their work may be subpar, but ask yourself, are you published? I mean, if you were making a living off of your writing you probably wouldn’t be bothering to badmouth […]

Literary Incest

After many months’ hiatus, I finally have something to complain about, and where else would be a better place than here?
Today, I picked up an Omnibus 2006 from a neat pile stacked in the bin next to the day’s Oracle. What is Omnibus? Apparently, it is “USF’s student art and literary magazine.”

In my several years at college thus far, I have noticed something rather frightening.
People are way-too-easily drawn by free stuff.
For example, outside the library (I passed him on my way in to type this) is a man standing behind a table, laden with clipboards, t-shirts, tiny FM radios. Hand-lettered sign proclaim, “2 free gifts with […]

Random Televisions

I was walking down the back corridor of the College of Education this morning when I saw it - a television mounted over one of the classroom doors.

All of this blank, inviting space. I don’t even know if anyone will really READ this, but I’m procrastinating on a paper, at any rate.
It’s at this point in the semester where you just wish to stop time for a few weeks, so that you can complete all of your projects at a leisurely pace, […]
