The Red Cross is having their blood drive on campus, and this costumed human was cavorting around outside the Memorial Union building, presumably drawing attention to the cause. I was heading out the door, saw him [...]

Several weeks ago we headed up to Portland for a weekend. I’d gotten tickets to see David Sedaris at the Arlene Schnitzer Concert Hall, and since it had been a while since Mr. Wolf had gotten solid time away from work, we decided to make it a nice long weekend away from home. We stayed [...]
