I have been struggling all week to write about the Rally to Restore Sanity, which Alex and I attended in Washington D.C. last Saturday. At first I thought I was just tired after having driven one thousand miles to D.C. from Boston and back. I had many conversations with people about the Rally, and was able to speak about it with ease. Why then could I not strap down my thoughts to some loose leaf? Why?

1. Challenge of the Day: Teach someone something they don’t already know today. If you manage to do it without getting called an asshole, you probably have what it takes to reverse America’s declining status as the world’s leader in education. Or you could always teach English in South Korea, or even better, Thailand! You can buy a pet monkey with all the money you’ll make over there!

1. Recommendations of the Day: Panera
Great complements for bright, sunlit skies are Panera Bread’s delicious drinks and smoothies. I highly recommend the Mango drink. It’s a sweet concoction that contains raspberry syrup and is topped with whipped cream. They also sell Mocha and Caramel drinks, and Black Cherry and Strawberry smoothies low in fat.

Todays Submersion by: Ali Riaz
Recommendation of the Day: Start perusing other New Brunswick related periodicals; this one seems to have taken a turn for the worst. Especially if you look at the new daily section. What in pea soup is that? I’m sure Johnsonville will get its silver spoon out of its platinum ass in the near future, but until then check out any other website about anything. I suggest using a search engine.

1. Recommendation of the Day: Check out “The Wanderer Sessions” from Pollifax. If you want to hear some quality, spur of the moment live music from some local musicians, and from musicians passing through New Brunswick, then you want to hear this shit. I am personally very impressed with the quality of the music and the way in which Kevin frames it in the videos. “The Wanderer Sessions” does a great job showcasing the good, young talent in and around Rutgers and …

1. Movie Recommendation of the Day: Army of Darkness
Probably one of the least appreciated and unintentionally funny movies in existence, Army of Darkness is the third and final installment of Bruce Campell’s Evil Dead trilogy.

In this film, protagonist Bruce Campell goes with his arm-stub-mounted chainsaw and trusty shotgun through …
