The summertime bluet si liool the next By HOLLY BRAITHVVAITE nu iiiuk i hi iixii si Noontime, and as tile sweltering sun hangs in the air like the bad dumpster smell that lingers near the cafeteria, I begin to think upon what the summer has in store for me. Wait a minute, what is the big deal about summer anyway? mean, why do people say they live for the summer, why not the winter, or the fall; what about the spring? Just what is it that makes summer so special? First of all, summer is hot. This seems simple enough, but let me reiterate this point: summer is hotter than Innsel and Gretel in the witch's oven hot. This is not a comfortable hot either, this is permanently sear sour bare legs to the Corinthian leather seats of a I imoln Towncar hot. Then, people go out and lav m this holler than Pierce Brosnan heat, bake their bodies to a nice, even, skmwnnierv brown, and they love every minute ol it Second, the summer is supposed to be such a time ol I J l 1 n ill'll UlJrJB B hiof li.u ic Icnscn-Sulli,n hb Assistant I ilitor C hi iMian loopcs I acuity Advisor oicn Accent I dilot atalio U ham ler hoisted Ihoto I ditor Opinion I ditor loll biaitlmaito Pioduction Manager isa Inmo Stall Wiitets and lhototaphcis ia IVtt, I ililor-in-- c l S kl iu'sda dm nit; all inlet and pi nu; ts. ettei s ollepe its ) isun ol and S lrnc es, and iie olle.;e student V ti ilies lu' unsieju d edits a on tlu Opinion lu;c icpiesenls the position ot !u as Jotci nuned b its tlct i.il bsMi d Otlieiwise the icw s and I'pinu'iis k e pi essed n ai e In se ol nd ulna it ei s and Jo iw iu esthn mons el el s,, u ot ;r ent ot the ol!e-.;sai i! s ' die editoi must be pi d and must m hide' the ti id Hi'iiAi 'n lumni v na m w K nine I cjikii U t t is d Mn hi leu h s as a public a (ion ol I hio C t t K M t i pi n o C. w K ' i a n i ' ' ' i ' n k i u . s ; i - - ' f f 4 i - t I'- - r - Ha 'on fiii.ies a time at aw as shod In m and ' ' h v ear. This ITU ikls no sense to me (Ol course, neither do the new Power Rangers Zeo Rangels, and I've learned to live with them.) Third, and my final summery complaint, what like to refer to as "the complete picture of outdoorsy junk that gist is not pleasing to cope with" i.e. lawn aeration, and those annoying green chirping bug things that live in, and blend into, the trees. Lawn aeration is the single most disgusting thing to look at since Fancy Teast cat food. personally do not enjoy trumping about a summertime lawn full of little brown things that s ot look like the I I alter-eflect- Fanes Feast cat food. Lawn is lawn, it it's living, it's green, don't go around pulling up bits ot dirt and making things worse... Now, let's talk those little green bug things.
