Tom seems to think I’d be concerned with my alma mater creating a job for the president’s wife, about $65K to show up with Ol’ Sid at public events. Not that it would ever happen, I hope, pray and beg, but the day they trot her out to a press conference where Dr. Ribeau announces he’s been manhandling the new Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences, and is taking him on the first train to Massachusetts to consummate the whole thing and live forever in dude on dude bliss, I say its worth every last thousand they pay her. Then again, freaky shit like that doesn’t happen to normal people, only those from New Jersey.
What concerns me more about the state of Bowling Green is their new athletic logo. There is, was and never will be anything wrong with the standard “falcon head” design that’s been around as long as I can remember, if not longer, but, in an effort to squeeze more juice out of the athletic marketing turnip, they come up with a new logo, that, while it will likely grow on me over time, makes me feel like BG is being represented by Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law. (Looking back at Harvey, maybe the resemblance isn’t quite as strong as I thought, but its too late to stop now. And while I’m talking up Harvey, try this out. Pretty mindless, and I have no clue what the actual game is about, but go through the tutorial, it has a great ending!)
EDIT: The Birdman game was less than thrilling, in fact, its probably most enjoyed by hardcore techies that like men’s gymnastics. But I wholeheartedly stand by the kickassness of the demo.
