Today, I was thinking “Boy, I wonder what it’s like on the heated inside
of Cornell politics”. And it just so happened that I received an
anonymous tip off as to what I’m missing. A recent meeting of two CU
student organisations went roughly as follows. It should be noted that
one group has a very large membership, that the other group is a
minority-based group, and that the names have been changed to protect
the ludicrous:
Bubbly Brit: “(insert name of ethnic group here) sucks!”
Ethnic Group (unison): “You’re a bunch of fucking racists!”
Bubbly Brit: “I’ll kill you all you fu-”
Rational Roy: “If I may interject…”
(goes on to talk totally rationally, then gets interrupted by)
Ethnic Group (unison): “Fuck you, honkey! You always say the same shi-”
Rational Roy (staring at celing, totally calm): “I would like to finish
my sentence.”
And so on, and so on, and so on. More race issues were brought up, but
it’s all more of the same.
So now you know why I would not run for election for any of those
student organisations that I associate with, god love ’em.

Another New Feature
The powers of slack overcame me, and now I have created the very Jay
Stile-ish Mac Gaming Webcam Portal Thing. At the present time,
there are only three active cams, one of them mine – but there seems to
be community interest, or something.
Link going up in the navbar, which I really need to redesign soon.
Noo Nooze
We signed our lease today for 133 N. Quarry – a beautiful 10 bedroom
house with a wonderful landlord. Thanks to Nick Lambrou for being
extremely understanding and helpful when we needed help.
I’d also like to thank my 9 roommates for dealing with my hectic hand
waving as I tried to get the lease in order over the past week.
Hopefully I’ll get some pictures of the house soon.
Other going ons – I got slaughtered towards the end of the week with
work, but what else is new? Stress release of the week is International
Track and Field (1995) from Konami for the PSX. I’ve shattered record
after record with button mashing madness. And have you seen the movies
for the PS2 version? Insane!
Also insane – Record Town now charges $20 for a regular CD. I don’t need
to say anything, other than point all of you good people
[here](http://www.cheap-cds.com/).
This week should be average…next CCC show is Mos Def w/ the Black Eyed
Peas on November 12th. I hope to work stage for the first time ever, so
hopefully it’ll be fun. Check out the awesome poster that we’ve got for
the show – I have a large one on my door.
Hopefully I can write some reviews this week, I’ve got a lot of material
I want to cover. But we’ll see. Till next time, take care.
