Schneider lives across town.
They
have lots of tall buildings, including a Stalinist-era dorm tower.
But
because of the housing crisis of '98, he lived on the campus of another
school freshman year!
Gris is preparing to be the best
director
of the 21st century in that big city on the island south of here.
He once
again lives in the biggest apartment in the entire city, across the
street from
Conan O'Brien.
Jaque can sometimes be found
at the
destination of the midnight train to Georgia. But right now he's
working
for the people who
brought you the moon landing & other expensive projects. He'll
have
a Mars Rover on your desk by 5 pm. After his perpetually free
miles on
Delta run out, he's gotta get
around
somehow.
Shan still
lives in Oregon, but no longer in that cool hippie Shakespearean town. She
went to Ireland a few summers ago,
though...
lucky!
Kate has taken up residence at the "other" UMaryland,
where the
smart people go. But she aspires to reside in an even more
esteemed land.
Freez competes
with the best of 'em down at the high-pressure engineering place in
Baltimore.
But he lives just miles from the most beautiful shrine
of baseball on Earth.
Barrett headed out to the happyville of the Pacific.
Regardless of
which, it's a good school & he's debating now, which could require
use of
this friendly corporation.
Lisha goes to that snotty
school
across town. But she has fun there & hangs with the band,
which has
an office that stands as a precise replica of the old Advocate
office back in NM. This makes us all shake our heads a little,
remembering
various forms of yesteryear. Which is all very UG
if you think about it.
Paige went to our nation's capital, perhaps at the most reputable
institution
left in the DC area. Hope you didn't confuse that with this lousy
place.
Not pictured but still spiffy are Benji Brandzy, Nivey-Nive, the Gard-dawg,
BeckerBoy, Shwin-P, Next-Door Manor, & of course the ubiquitous "Debate
Kids", who include Zirkinism, Rusty, Zim-Zim the Mayonnaise Man, Wheelchair
Wilson, Bad Man Brad & many others, some of whom will join us in the coming
year. It could be you! Also of note are the MUN-fun Crew, especially
Banana, Senator Joseph Edlow, & that tall guy with glasses who I get to
give flack to. It's in my job description!
Some of my friends are pursuing other life essentials than university
at this
time. For example, Becky's married now, which is evidence that I can't
keep up with life's myriad changes. Other friends, like Lauren Harper, James Ou, or Pete Kamarchik, are long-lost.
Someday, I
may be able to track these people down, but these days, your guess is as
good as mine. In light of recent events, I'm also trying to track down the Oregon crew, which
includes such great folks as John Grotz (or Hill, depending on what mood you catch
him in), Bowen Turetzky, Bobby Longo, Tony Cox, & even Cisco Treharne, who probably
qualifies for long-lost. Those were (some of) the days...
Kunx lives
under
that big smog cloud in southern California. He has a tendency to
like
bad teams, though, making these
a necessity whenever he attends sporting events.
Eliaii shivers in the snows
of
upstate New York. But he had a girlfriend for a while! &
if
you believe that, well, I've got one of these for
sale...
Sarah goes to Catholic school. I feel her pain.
So does she, which is why she's spending fall semester
somewhere more hospitable. Woo hoo Windhoek.
Hass has moved out of the
18th
century university, which she claims was
actually founded
in the 17th century. Now she hangs out with all the girls, who she
claims are actually
women. At least we agree that she misses her former place of employment.
Gemma has committed to another school in our
nation's
alleged capital. Must've been that whole Girls Nation thing that
convinced her.
No double-meaning intended, of course. She, like me, would
never make a decision
based on the bakery!
Vet is revolutionizing
the frat scene in that rocky state that was always "north"
before.
This makes us all worry a little, but I guess we must trust his
judgment.
Marps is living it up in
southern Nuevo
Mexico. But he's always up for some A&A.
McBigot is learning how to
kill
people. This makes me sad & I don't approve, but he knows as
much
& that's that. I'd rather he joined this
organization, but I doubt that'll ever happen.
A bunch of my friends just hang
with me here at the 'Deis. Many have been mentioned. The folks
include...
the Stini-Bopper,
Arrrrrriela,
Wacko Uncle Zacko,
Gregor (think Kafka's
"Metamorphosis"),
Booty Cow,
Mesco(e),
the Court,
& Annana.
Few folks in the classes of 2000 or 1999 have had much impact on me, but I must
acknowledge my graduated friend Stevie Wonder (above) for being the exception.
Chaz, meanwhile, is planning to help kids
rediscover the woods. Which is a cool cause if you ask me. He says he'll
drop by school eventually, but I wouldn't be in any rush if I were him.
Home's Friendly, Too!
