Snow in April

Yes you read it right, snow in April. I few weeks ago I got a call from mi padre informing me that it had snowed at our house in Snohomish, WA (hometown of Major League Pitcher Adam Eaton and Hall of Famer Earl Averil) which was a record even for Washington.

So for all you out there that said it was impossible for snow to fall in April. Here's nature laughing in your face

From behind the lines...

I'm Aaron M Williams and welcome again to the weekly blog report...(some kind of dramatic intro music) This week I'm reporting for inside The Library on the prestine California Baptist University campus. My location ,for those of you wondering, is nestled between the JK'S and the JN's on the 2nd floor...as of right now the area is calm, very quiet, some locals can be seen every now and then but the effects of Spring Break is extremely evident here. After the massive pilgrimage of CBU undergrad and graduate students journying off to their homes else where, the personality and life of the campus is virtually non-existent, some have even been noted as saying that life here in the normally thriving Baptist haven...is dead.

In other news...

The end of the year is upon us. Seniors...I can't even fathom where we will all be one year from now but I'm excited to find out.

For those of you who came up this past week letting me know that my beloved Sonics will be moving to the OK state... Not so fast! I say to you... A source from Seattle, who just so happens to be my dad, informed me that 3 private investors(the CEO of Microsoft,some big wig from Cosco, and a local real estate investor) have stepped up and our willing to pay all the money needed for the Key Arena's rennovation, and will offer to buy the Sonics back from Clay Bennet anc Co. in the near future. So there's hope...(stay tuned for next week's story on how the NBA has been scheming American cities out of zillions of dollars uncontested.)

#2 donuts is no longer open 24hrs, they now close at midnight...I know Lancer nation, we're all in shock. Now there's a difinitive reason why they're America's #2 donuts

Back to you Anderson...

Well here I am again maning my usual post in the corner of Wanda's with the authority of one Danny Manning (in his prime mind you, think clippers/hawks years) and I thought it was about time for another blog entry.

In political news... Does anyone but me find Hilary Clinton's new campaign strat. halarious? The fact that she makes the statement "Barack Obama would make a great vice president, under herself" . I must admitt, its a brillant play pn her part. The basic idea is that people will start accepting Clinton as the dominant Democratic presidential canidate and those who are yet to vote in the remaining states vote for Clinton. The idea is also an outreach to Obama supporters, hoping they will concede with thee guarantee of a Vice President nomination. So yeah... great play but still halarious. I would have loved to see the look on Obama's face when he saw that quoted in the newspaper

Liverpool, Food Reviews, and Barack Obama

Well its approxmately 38min past 10 this Thursday morning and I'm sitting in Wanda's reflecting on the three subjects listed above in the title. For those of you Champions League followers yes, Liverpool opened up Round of 16 play with a stunning 2-0 victory over Inter Milan. Both goals came late in the second half and for this Wanda's blogger helped start the week off on a great note. I encourage all those sports fans out there who have resisted International Soccer and give and and let your world be rocked by the one of the most exciting sports that is relevant to every country, and every culture. I'd like to also point out that ManU only eeked out a 1-1 tie with Lyon. Who's Premier now....

Moving on...

If haven't already noticed, I added a new link to my link list on the left hand side of the page titled "Hole in the Wall". Significance? Now hold your horses, steeds and stalions I'll tell ya. "Hole in the Wall" is a new blog that is dedicated to food reviews of hole in the wall restraunts within and outside the Inland Empire. The first review will be done Sat. Feb 23rd. Reviews will be done by Ethan Johnstone and myself as well as various guest writers as the year goes on so be on the look out.

Lastly, I was looking at my latest copy of "The Economist" which presents the question: "Can Barack Obama deliver if elected President of the United States?" I find this to be a very good question. He sure can enspire and motivate but can he really accomplish what he preaches?(Change)and can he really carry out the duties as President without much experience within executive politics? So what do you thing BloggerNation? Can Obama Deliver?

Final Four Predictions Extremely Early...

I know, I know its way to early to make Final Four picks...or is it? I feel that at this point in the season I can already make a pretty good guess on who will advance to the Final Four in the upcomming NCAA BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT and I don't need Bracketology to help me out. So without further run on here are the picks:

Memphis- Face it they're legit

Michigan State- Tom Izzo wins in the post season every year and this could be one of his best teams he's had (talent wise) yet
Texas- yeah not even the best team in the Big 12 but just watch
North Carolina- Hansbrough won't be stopped, you've got Lawson plus the rest of McDonald's All-Americans and they are just almost impossible to bet against.

Also look for suprise runs by Gonzaga, Drake, and watch Cal State Northridge stun some big name team in the first round

big news coming out of the 2D camp...

This past week while participating in a Smith Hall event "Family Feud" 2D made an incrediable come from behind rally late to advance to the championship round, winning a crucial point by answering the question: "How many season's was the the hit TV show Friends on for?" Led by the quick thinking of all-pro Feuder's Robbie Willett and Nolan Gouveia, 2D correctly answered three much needed questions in a row making for an incrediable finish, not to mention a great drama for all bystanders. Though the rally was fierce 2D was finally subdued in the championship round. The hall did not walk away empty handed though, walking away with some prize money to be used on future late night #2's runs, which in this reporters opinion was much more valuable then the dart bord the 1st place group walked away with.
