...Army National Guard, serving in Iraq, I thought he would appreciate my telling you what he carries. It's a small Celtic cross. He got one for himself, my mom, me, my two brothers and my sister. We all wear them on chains around our necks--except he wears his with his dog tags. We wear them so we can keep him in our hearts, and he can keep...
...still love him. It takes him about a nano-second to find her and about the same amount of time to discover that she has been ill used by fate.

His wittiness outlived him, and so let this be a lesson to the UC hopefuls: in campaigns, slogans are tantamount to success. Save the platform, give me rhymes! Thomas D. Hadfield ’08 seems to agree, which is why he and S. Adam Goldenberg...
