The Facebook
Here's something for all you people who have (or are willing to create) a "unl.edu" email account.
The Facebook is an online college database of sorts that connects people with their friends from their own school as well as people from other schools. Once you locate someone, you request their permission to list them as a friend, and if they agree, you're both listed as friends on one another's profile page. (Cheesy sounding, I realize.) Anyway, it allows you to see your friends' friends and their friends' friends and so forth. Friends anyone?
While it smacks of (there's a shout out to Jakob) middle school cliqueishness a bit, it can be useful in locating old friends you haven't seen for ages, etc. And it serves as a great way to waste infinite amounts of time that should be spent studying.

Dave will be so glad that you're getting the word out. Maybe this will be as popular as POGS?

Oh I doubt it. Nothing will ever touch the soaring popularity of that infinitely ingenious creation that was the Pog. EVER.

I think you do it through WAM. If you go to bigred.unl.edu there should be a link to create an account. Whether it works or not, I knoweth not.

Annnnnnd.....I've created a "People for the Mountainization of Nebraska" club, so there's some extra incentive to sign up.
I'm appointing all the members (7 now...woohoo!) to great positions like Puppet Street Theatre Coordinator and First Sealord of the Admiralty.
