Diamond to the Providence-based company that produces patches capable of dispensing three drugs simultaneously. We have that too — we call it a Spring Weekend concert.
A diamond to Vlad the bat, whom Assistant Research Professor of Neuroscience Seth Horowitz MSc '93 PhD '97 called "the meanest bastard I'd ever met" — if only so the laser-wielding bat shows mercy when he finally escapes from the lab.
A diamond to Wesleyan for producing Spring Weekend '09 sensation Santigold and expected 2010 sell-out MGMT (oh, and Dean of the College Katherine Bergeron). Letting you have Ruth for a few hours might be the least we can do.
Coal to GOP gubernatorial candidate John Robitaille, who said he was "not used to speaking to such a small group" — you obviously have not spent enough time with the Brown Republicans.
Speaking of politics, coal to Providence mayoral candidate Chris Young, who says he might file a lawsuit against the University for violating his constitutional rights. Sounds like somebody's just bitter because his video wasn't more popular at the first-pick contest.
An admiring diamond to Cornell's men's basketball team, which might get a No. 11 seed in the NCAA Tournament. We're just happy when one of our teams gets a No. 11 seed in an Ivy tournament.
A diamond to the University for securing federal funds to renovate the greenhouse in time for Snoop Dogg's arrival on campus. We just want to make sure we have the chance to grow him some ... flowers. Speaking of which, someone should let Snoop know that though we're special, we're not that type of brownie. (But we do have a new joint degree program.)
A very sunny diamond to the newly opened Faunce steps. Coal to this weekend's rain.
