Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome back after another spectacular football game. The Irish pulled out another highprofile win against the UMass MinuteMen, you know, that storied program known most for producing Live Schrieber. In allseriousness, though, the Irish are now six in the nation for two weeks in a row and as we know, number six canoccasionally be the best. I mean, Air Buddies was a game changer for the Air Bud franchise; Now! That’s What I CallMusic Volume 6 featured hits from Creed, Incubus AND Fuel (all in a row)!; and of course, we can’t forget American Idol!Season 6, which brought us Sanjaya.

Feel free to come hang outeven if you do not feel like painting! Location: LegendsDate: 10/13/2015Time: 7-10 PMFood: Appetizers

Not to be overly critical, but why is there a forrest blocking the dome? The time on the clock is just a plus sign. The statueon top of the dome looks a little like a penguin. If the sky is so blue, why is it yellow straight ahead? Is this just an artist’srepresentation of The Dark Forest from Legends of the Hidden Temple? Do a better job than whoever painted this and come on October 13th! From Jenn (again)

A Day in the Life: Part-Time JobsEach week a different student will provide commentary regarding his/her law school experience.Rachel Lynn I wake up and it’s time to go to work. Things have been hard since I decided to take that janitor job at that school in Boston, Massachusetts.I enjoy making money and paying the bills, but sometimes I think I was gifted with the intelligence to do so much more.

At work, I see a math equation on the chalkboard. I decide to try my hand at the math, despite having no background or schooling onadvanced mathematics. The equation is basically a snap so I solve it in a few minutes and leave it on the board for the professors to see inthe morning.

I come home from work and tell my best friends Chuckie that even though I have a genius IQ, I would rather work as a laborer for the rest ofmy life. Chuckie is pretty mad that I’m saying this. He says I’m meant for more and it is actually an insult if I stay in Boston and remain aJanitor at MIT for the rest of my life. 

I’m so torn by this conversation with Chuckie. Maybe I should talk about it with my therapist tomorrow morning. He’s a real genie at helpingme work through my emotions. 

Sports:Anthony Bui Author's note: I have not written anything for this week because I deemed this game to be meaningless. I attempted to sell this column on Facebook, but could not compete with the going rates of $20 or the bartering offers of a twelve pack of Coca-Cola. As a result, this column will be rendered as unwritten. In the News: Student Doesn't Read for Class; Is Cold Called.
