Visionaries and Lurkers:
Wayne, I am intrigued with that holy rolling item you included in your recent
post. With parents weekend coming up at New St. Andrews (Friday through
Monday, March 26-29 -see quote below) it provides some real possibilities for fun.
"New Saint Andrews College invites prospective students and their families to
our Spring Prospective Student Weekend. We are glad to have visitors anytime,
of course, but we have scheduled this special weekend event with the specific
purpose of providing prospective students and their parents with a personal
glimpse into the life of our college and the life they would have if they were
to attend"

So, Visionaries, how 'bout we ask those roly-poly preachers, Doug Sr. and
Doug Two, to start at opposite ends of Main Street (say Gritman Hospital and the
Rosauers parking lot) and roll like hell toward New St. Andrews. The winner
would get a mug of oatmeal stout, a cigar (sometimes a cigar is just a cigar)
and, with appropriate ceremony be crowned King for a day.
The visual would be great. I see packs of unleashed dogs running and nipping
beside them. Cheering students (in those pseudo Harry Potter gowns) could
line the street. Wayne Fox would judge and referee the event, Joan, Saundra,
and I would scurry ahead of the rollers ringing bells and tooting horns to
encourage the participants. Tom Hansen would videotape the whole event to upload
on his website, and Mr. Spanky from Logos will be riding a bike between the two
contestants administering his own special kind of encouragement. What fun!!!!
What about the loser you ask? Actually, there is a real incentive to win.
The loser accompanied by the Dean of NSA, Roy Atwood, will get to explain to
the visiting parents and perspective students how it came to pass that NSA
students opened up a gambling casino, bilked students out of thousands of dollars,
and provided free alcohol for underaged undergraduates to increase their
indebtedness.
Given the consequence of losing, my money's on Doug Sr. to roll like a hoop
snake down Main, beating out Doug Two by at least three blocks. Cause we all
know that taking responsibility, especially in front of non-member parents, is
something that Doug Sr. just is not man (or come to that woman) enough to do.
Hoping we can get these men of chest to agree - but not expecting an answer
any more,
Rose Huskey
Once you lose integrity everything else is easy.
