Although my dislike of the boys in blue isn’t necessarily as strong as the likes of, say, Tupac Shakur, I’ve truly never been a fan of the police or the ways in which they operate. Eau Claire in particular is no exception. As much as I hate the sight of a police officer dangerously tailgating students... Read more »

I’m beginning to learn that sometimes in life, no matter how ridiculous or incomprehensible I find something, there will always be opposition. There will always be a group of people out there that disagree with me. That’s fine. Variety is the spice of life, right? There’s a new country song –... Read more »

That’s just crummy Let’s be real. Baked good are AWESOME. Some doughy goodness is the perfect way to start out your day. You can eat bagels, you can eat toast, you can eat doughnuts, all of which I love the most. I got a little Dr. Seuss-y there. Work with me. But, you know what’s really good?!... Read more »

Last week, I took my bike out of storage after a long winter. I dusted it off, added some air to the tires, and hit the pavement for my first ride of the season. Not five minutes into my ride, I received my first catcall of the season, as well. A car full of twenty-something guys pulled up alongside... Read more »

Woof, woof I mean I don’t know about you, but mixing up a poodle and a ferret is kind of … idiotic. Just really though, raise your hand if you know the difference. Kidding, don’t do that, you will look weird. Apparently some people bought what they thought to be a poodle for $150 to later find... Read more »

Last week I went out to the bars with two of my guy friends, both of whom happen to be interested in politics, and one of whom at least dabbles with the idea of calling himself a feminist. Which is why when they both tried explaining to me that unequal pay isn’t real, I got a little bit miffed. Because... Read more »

It’s right there in black and white. The first day of class, a syllabus is handed out. The rules for an entire semester in a few pages on the desk. And as the professor is reading through what is and isn’t allowed, the criteria for technological devices is laid out. “No electronic devices... Read more »
