SNL 40
In my personal opinion, the only disappointing thing about this reunion was the fact that it was ironically filmed on a Sunday instead of on a Saturday. In the words of Seth Meyers and Amy Poehler … really?

Pathway to sickness
I’m setting myself up for coming down with something. Late nights doing homework or editing or interviewing or all of them at once. One morning, my body is going to vulgarly tell me to stop.

Operation Avarice
According to a New York Times article, the American military deemed this 2005 to 2006 operation involving a secretive Iraqi seller a nonproliferation success. Apparently, the U.S. acquired and destroyed at least 400 Saddam Hussein-era Borak rockets, which were not accounted for by the U.N. That’s certainly an interesting little piece of trivia.

Wacky weather
I’m enjoying the warmer weather now and the fact that we might actually have a spring during the academic year, but I’m dreading the inevitable scorching summer.

Spot on
I guess my last OTC about Kitzhaber was more of an understatement than I thought. Today Oregon has a new governor.

May 16
I should have looked this up earlier, but I didn’t do it until last night. Now that I know the actual day I will graduate, the end suddenly seems more certain.

David Carr
He once said the real value of Twitter lies in listening to a collective wired voice, and never was his point more true than with his own death. Alone, each message, tweet and status update about him showed how much he impacted people on a personal level. Together, the collective outpouring of grief and love amplified how much he will be missed and the size of the hole he leaves behind. Rest in peace, Mr. Carr, for you truly left an impact on this world.

Reno
If Sacramento State wins the Big Sky, the conference tournament will take place in Reno. I can get behind that. Sure beats Cheney.

Sticky notes
I feel like I’ve used the first 10 notes of a hundred different pads.

What if I told you
Judges are supposed to uphold the law … not participate in partisan politics. I literally learned this the first day of constitutional law class.

Willamette Week
Who knew an investigative reporter from an alt weekly in Portland could expose two governors within a decade?
