Emo-Agricola International Edition

Did You Know: The California Aggie's original name? ...take a second to realize you have no idea or make a guess which will be wrong -- it was "The Weekly Agricola." Yeah I don't know what that is either, but I think it would make a better mascot than an "Aggie." (credit Daviswiki creator codetoad for discovering this during the extensive investigative journalism only Daviswiki provides)

News Fact of the Day: Today the Bolivian Congress REJECTED the resignation of Bolivian President Carlos Mesa. Normally people are fighting to become the President, not to leave the post (Mesa became president after being vice president to the previous president, who resigned).

   Also in the news, official Chechen resistence leader Aslan Maskadov has been killed "as a result of the interchange of gunfire with federal forces." Apparently FSB (successor to the KGB) troops raided the village he was in and intended to capture him alive but he was killed by one of his bodyguards (possibly accidently). While more moderate than other seperatist leaders, Maskadov still claimed presidency of the "Chechen Republic of Itchkeria," which laid claim to the entirety of the Russian territory of Chechnya. This reported here because Chechnya is my favourite topic.

Question of the Day: What do you call someone who would be a felon if they only got caught? A closet felon?

Agricola sounds like a beverage to me....mmmmm agricola. I picture it being a green, cherry-lemon-lime-flavored soda with a Cow and a Squirrelie on the label. ARGICOLA! *insert witty slogan here*

Yeah, I should be studying right now.

P.S. I have nothing but loathred for your picture of the day.

I have nothing but heartred for the picture of the day. Well, actually I have jocking for it as well. And pining (sp?)!

I got such good pictures of you and the squirrelies tody.

For some reason I picture an agricola as potentially being a mullusk. But maybe I'm just mullusk inclined or something.

agricola in latin means farmer, if that helps anything. it's where we get words like agriculture!




oh, speaking dead languages comes in so handy.

and p.s.: your kristy is too cute to be allowed. i have decided that it is ok* that we won't get married as long as you leave me for her because she is adorable. the end.



* not "ok" so much as "bearable." oh kris.

cocoa-cola: latin for crack farmer

latin is cool and all but I was enjoying thinking it was a nonword.

I always wanted to learn latin. They have it here but.. languages aren't my strong point and I wouldn't want to add one unnecessarily.
