Cubic zirconium to new Associate Protestant Chaplain William Mathis, who left a career as a lawyer to "advocate for a different person." The jury's still out on whether St. Peter will let even a former lawyer in.
Coal to the John McCain supporter who said she was shocked that Barack Obama won Rhode Island despite the high demand for McCain T-shirts. We heard you were also upset that your 100 T-shirt-clad cats did not go to the polls.
Coal to the Barbour resident who called DPS to report clothes missing from the laundry room, only to call back later and report them found in another washer. By the way, still can't find that last set of clothes? Maybe you're wearing them.
A cubic zirconium to the student who - to avoid paying for a parking spot - illegally parked in the Power Street garage each night, got up early to move it to the street every morning and then decided to just take it back home after getting three fines. Mother Nature thanks you, but all your friends who need rides are sulking.
Coal to Registrar Michael Pesta for assuming that students who exceeded the limit of 1,000 changes to their Banner preregistration last year had created computer programs to preregister for them. A thousand clicks is nothing - ever heard of a "poke war"?
Cubic zirconium to Rep. James Langevin, who ranked near the bottom among House Democrats in power and influence, according to one study. You may not get a lot done in Washington, D.C., but hey, Rhode Islanders don't judge - our straight party voting system still brought you a 70-30 victory on Tuesday
A Brownest-of-the-Brown diamond to student revelers on the Main Green election night. We don't know how taking off your clothes showed support for the President-elect, but it showed your devotion to the time-honored Brown tradition of public nudity.
And on that note, a congratulatory diamond to newly elected Delaware Gov. Jack Markell '82. You thought we were celebrating for the punk with Columbia and Harvard degrees?
