Which cover article from the March 7, 2009 issue of the New Orleans Times-Picayune is the MOST horrific? YOU DECIDE.

Dig! the Sequel: The Fearless Freaks

For those of us still trying to figure out how to navigate the oftentimes disorienting post-college world, we turn to special memories and relics of our collective past in hopes that we will be provided with a certain peace of mind and, perhaps, a renewed sense of purpose. Unfortunately, however, one special point of reminiscence has been rendered unattainable . . . because Paul owns that one copy of Dig! that we all used to watch. But worry no more! I have discovered Dig! 2.0; the rockumentary of a seemingly unlikely band: the Flaming Lips. Although Wayne Coyne barely resembles the sheer force of destruction that is Anton, there is plenty in The Fearless Freaks that makes it a fitting reincarnation of Dig!, including:

1. Heroin
2. Jail terms
3. A rival band
4. Lighting instruments on fire during concerts
5. Broken families
6. More heroin
7. Dirtbike exhaust used for on-stage fog machine

You would never guess that the joyous celebration that is a Flaming Lips show arose from such things. I definitely recommend this movie. If you have Netflix, you can stream it.

A Salute

Carleton isn't known for producing superstars - we're the strong, silent type, generally - but one of us has made the leap from beer pong participant to genuine phenomenon. Soccer players, you'll know him well: it's Colin Steers, and he'll be appearing on Season 2 of the smash Bravo reality show Make Me A Supermodel. Click through for more details, including profiles of the other competitors - I hate to even call them 'competitors', as they're hardly worthy - that Colin will devastate.

A very sad day...

Dear all.  As I was perusing the internets today, I made a sad discovery.  Please, find out yourselves:
