And I’m sure these people exist, because when I go to the ARC I see the same people every time. They must live there. There is no other explanation. Anyway, instead of ranting on the imperfections of college students, this week I’ll be talking social dynamics at our local gym.

Please let me proceed to defend my decadence and offer a primer on vehicle purpose: Each of my 10 bicycles is necessary for specific activities in a low-automobile lifestyle.
