Let's look back on some of the highlights...

We moved into our new apartment only find that Shraff took extra special care of it over the summer.

Another preseason and the beginning of the new school year. The semester started off with a bang (or more like a crash) as T added the "worm" to his MJ routine. He had to learn sooner or later that it was time to calm down. Even though he sprained his MCL, this wouldn't be the night that he would learn that lesson.

That same Thursday, Smitty liked the idea of having a slumber party. This continued for a few weeks until he found what was good for him. The only downside is that we no longer have a VCR.

The next thurs. T kept is streak going by cutting his foot open with a mirror. Now lame in both legs, T had a little trouble getting through practice without a trip to the trainer.

That same thurs., Shenck thought it would be a good idea to walk home from 11-E. He was last seen stumbling down 741 when Hilly and Smitty accidentally ran into him.

Pregame at the Manor

Here is Lisa, Culbert, T, Brooke, and Shencky at a Manor pre-game function.

The girls had their initiation at Hank's while T did his things on the wheels of steel. That night marked the journey that Richie and T made around Lancaster in search of the secret burrito.

As for the girls, Brooke and Janelle seemed to have similar taste in a particular soccer player but we won't mention any names to protect them from any embarrassment.

Did someone say toga? Yes, some of us experienced our first toga party at the 'Ville. As the party began to die down, 4 drunk guys in togas made their way to 11-E to liven up the party a little more. It was a rare thurs. night because T made it through without hurting.... wait a minute...that was the next week, anyway it was a good night.

Smitty in Full Toga Gear

Here is Smitty in full toga gear.

Our initiation was next and I believe we showed our freshmen a good time. Most of you got to meet my nice sister who became not so nice after that Jill girl got smart with her. It also marked the return of the "worm" and more agony to the knee of T.

Back to the women, Lisa kept pretty quiet this semester or she would like us to think that. There is no dirt on her now, but she will get hers. Becky, Ann, and Andrea became the recipients of many thurs. night phone class asking for medical assistance. I wonder who that was.

Halloween came and so did the hopes of the biggest party of the semester as Ricci and Layser took the stage for the first time only to have their show foiled by a visit from officer friendly.

Soccer soon ended and true alcoholism began to set in. It became a rare occasion around our place as it did around various locations at the 'ville. A voyage was made to state college as the legend of "The Sheet" was born.

Culbert introduced us to South Park and entertains us everyday with his impressions of Eric Cartmen. Towards the end of the semester he has become the mac and has finally put some of that "Jedi Mind Shit" to some good use.

Cuddles, Jonesy, & T

Here is Cuddles, Jonesy, and T chillin' at the Manor.

Cuddles was Cuddles and whenever you needed to laugh, the mechanic would tell it to you like was. He finally dug himself a hole when he woke up that one Saturday morning only find the Snaggle Tooth ready to give him "Sweet Lovin"

Jonesy, now a senior citizen at the ville is still around to give us plenty to tell stories about. Soon after Smitty stopped having Thursday night sleepovers (actually it was the same night), Jonesy decided to have his own slumber party on our couch.

Now that Smitty has settled down with Jen, Shencky has begun to pick up where Smitty left off. After last weekend and being introduced to the new Clarence, he informs me that it was nothing but "a friendly game of darts".

Power Hour on the Metro

Here are the fellas on the Metro going to the MLS championship game in DC.

As for me, I sure found a way to make a huge ass out of myself at the beginning of the semester and believe me, I now know when and when not to do the worm. I hope you can all read this and get a good laugh and is by now means a way to cause conflict between anyone. I hope everyone has had a good break and is ready to get back into the swing of things. Get ready for some of my future episodes.
