On Hair Maintenance


Hair maintenance should not be left to chance, nor to brand indecision. I recommend, for your own sanity and well being, a sense of brand loyalty. It will make your trips to the store much easier. One must weigh equally cost and quality. Unlikely bedfellows, they. Over the course of my travels, I have decided upon Garnier Fructis. It comes in a festive green package, and is priced at approximately $4.00 per bottle. A true bargain, in the opinion of Your Humble Narrator. Right. You'll also want to consider the leave-in conditioner. It is well-worth the additional $2.00. A resilient, wide-tooth comb is the next necessity. Hair should be combed while wet, lightly towel-dried, and then combed once more. Ancient guru wisdom. Which brings me, incidentally, to sandals. The perennial question, it seems, is toe-strap or no toe-strap. Many otherwise-productive hours have been squandered over this matter. Though the absence of a toe strap does invite the possibility of the classic wool-sock-sandal combination, it leaves one with the unpleasant responsibility of pressing down the big toe at each step. This problem is easily solved by the presence of the toe-strap. Ultimately, the comfort and ease provided by the strap outweigh the marginal stylistic benefits of wearing socks with sandals. Q.E.D.
Indulgently,

Courtney's Birthday Weekend!


Can’t wait to celebrate my 22nd birthday in the greatest city of all time. The weatherwoman has cleared the skies, and there are a handful of things I’d like to do that will not fit into 1 day. Thus, it’s Courtney Week, más o menos. Behold, the list:
Places to eat
  • Julio’s for breakfast migas and mimosas
  • Barley Swine for a swanky dinner: http://barleyswine.com/menu/
  • Frank for a souped up hot dog and a palette cleansing beer
  • Din Ho for my favorite Chinese food in Austin
  • Justine’s for a fine, classy evening of pretentiously delightful French food and wine
Activities
  • Friendship potluck
  • Friendship picnic at Auditorium Shores
  • Friendship cinematic experience at Violet Crown
  • Friendship night out on the town (east 6th, dirty 6th, Rainey Street, or all of the above)
  • Jazzy-sassy friendship concert: http://www.facebook.com/soultrackmind
Note: the word “friendship” indicates copious amounts of laughter, handholding, hugging, and general tomfoolery.
Last college birthday. Going to do it right. A beber y a tragar, que el mundo se va a acabar.

Night of the Living Dead Voltaire's Cinema


On Thursday, October 27th, about 30 zombie Plan II students showed up to watch the classic horror film Night of the Living Dead. Matt Valentine, Joynes Room Program Coordinator, creative writing professor, and zombie enthusiast, gave a brief history of zombies and how the film defined the zombie genre. The living dead in attendance munched on pizza and brains while they watched.
