(07/03/14 3:58pm)

Did you know Ben Franklin founded our school? Yes?

Drunk Fight In Vegas: George Clooney VS Steve Wynn

(04/25/14 3:14pm)

Movie idea: powers clash as alum/Wynn Commons namesake gets into a tipsy tussle with George Clooney in a Vegas hotel.

To hell with hell. It's about time I ditch this whole pitchforkin' gig and try something new. So where's Lucifer now? Probably interning at Pitchfork or Comcast customer service.
