Look at that steam... even the steam looks delicious.
Just look at those people eating their chili out of cups. It must be negative a bazillion degrees outside, their noses must be dripping like the Hoover Dam, and yet they’re happily sampling chili. It’s chili… when you’re chilly. Get it? Get it? No? Okay.
Why I mention this, of course, is because I’m about to head down to the Ithaca Commons Chili Cook-Off. WICB covers the event every year, and we have fun doing it. We give away prizes. We dance in the road. We play kick-ass music. And of course, we fill our poor college student bellies with lots and lots of delicious chili. That’s good, because I’m really hungry. Yahoo!
Listen in to WICB at around 11. You might just hear me. And you can imagine the smell and taste of lots of chili. You know, because you don’t wanna get out of bed on a Saturday morning. You lazy bums.
Peace,
Will

Chances are this is you.
So! You’re a creepy old man and you’ve just found the incredible new site Chatroulette. You click your Internet browser thinking that you’ll find some precious little thing to get your knocks off. But before you give the wheel a few spins, here are a few things you should know before you dive in headlong:
• The average Chatroulette user views 37 penises during their stay on the site. 37 adult penises. We’re assuming you don’t want that.
• The breakdown of Chatroulette viewers is: 44% creepy old men (like yourself), 31% bored college students, 15% chronic masturbators, 10% young and innocent children about to be scarred for life, and 0% of what you are ACTUALLY LOOKING FOR. No boobs for you.
• If in the event you do see a tasty morsel, you must duck and cover. This is because the FBI and the SWAT team is about to break through your roof and knock you out with cyanide. This is normal.
• Sometimes you might see a video of some pornography. Instead of liking this, you should feel a great sense of shame and disappointment as the video taunts you, as if to say “You will never get this, you will never get this!”
• If your tasty morsel happens to give you the image you were looking for, it’s just a hallucination. Click Next and move on.
• And most importantly, why don’t you get off Chatroulette, go outside, and do something else? For example, stalk teenagers outside. It’s a little more pathetic than sitting on your ass doing the same thing.
Have a creepy Chatroulette day!… ya creeper.

This came to mind during an Academic Writing class which I’m not actually enrolled in. We were all talking about sex education in schools, and abstinence popped into the discussion. I think that for people who have sex regularly, abstaining would be tough. But then I thought: What if abstaining meant that you could have something you always wanted or do something you always wanted to do? What I mean is, if you have sex, you can’t have a car, or you can’t go to Juliard to be a famous musician, or you can’t play in the NBA.
Think about it. What would you have: sex, or your dream come true? Vote, comment, talk to me.

EDIT @ 9AM: Sadly I’ve just been informed that Mr. John Shafer passed away earlier this morning. All of your former students, peers, and colleagues in Ithaca and all around have you in our thoughts. Rest in peace.
It’s not often that kids write about their high school teachers, especially once they leave and go to college. But this is a situation that I feel deserves some talk.
I had a teacher named Mr. Shafer. Let’s back up: I didn’t actually have him. He was a supervisor for the school newspaper (a publication I wrote for a few times) and he was a good friend of anyone who frequented the English wing constantly. Also, Shafer had seen my older sister and brother grace the halls of my school long before me, so he basically knew who I was.
Why I write about Mr. Shafer today is because he was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. This hits me hard because my grandfather, my namesake, died of the disease when he was just 68 years old. I’m pretty sure that Mr. Shafer is much younger. The last I heard (before writing this), he only had 24 hours to live. That statement is currently being refuted by many of Mr. Shafer’s closest, but given the volatility of the disease I’m praying right along with them.
In honor of Mr. Shafer, many of his current and past students & his friends have decided to wear purple today. I just received the message a few hours ago, but after classes end at 10 I will definitely be changing to support one of the more respected figures in my old high school as well as one of my old mentors. He will surely be missed.
Sorry to depress you guys. Although I do know that if Shafer were to read this blog post right now, he’d find so many grammar errors that he’d knock me out.

…is slowly getting crazier, but somehow it doesn’t seem prevalent. Like the calm before the storm. Or a tiger lurking in the shadows waiting to pounce. Or a pedophile hiding in your closet. Wait a minute.
A few things I’d like to highlight right now:
• My friend is standing in my room currently pondering how to get home to protect his 15-year-old sister from the terrors that could arise from the infamous “first-high-school-house-party.” Seven girls, three guys. These terrors include, but are not limited to: buying the wrong kind of beer, getting arrested, being “high-school-girl” drunk (which is the worst), and — the worst — the naked lap. My friend is praying. Literally.
• My roommate is hungry at 11:00 at night. We are going to go get subs at a sub place. It’s 11:00 and we’re getting subs. Yum yum.
• I have an 8:00 AM class tomorrow and I do not plan on going to sleep until 3:00 AM. I don’t have any work left to do. I think that time will be spent playing Beatles’ Rock Band and listening to the party guys on our floor come back after a rousing Thirsty Thursday.
In short, high schoolers: this is what you have to look forward to.
Love, Will.

So as if hitting them way below the belt twice in Haiti wasn’t enough, the earthquakes decided that it was time to hit the big guys too. That’s right: this morning, they went and buggered Chicago a little bit.
It was apparently nothing big; just a 4.3 earthquake, which is enough to maybe chip the paint off of your walls and shake stuff up. But that’s not going to take down a building or anything. Also, earthquakes between 4.0 and 4.9 happen around 6,200 times a year according to the U.S. Geological Survey, so it’s really not that big of a deal at all.
But it got me thinking: Earthquakes, heavy snow showers in some usually warm places… what’s next? Tornados? Flaming hail? Cloudy with a chance of meatballs? Could this be the beginning of the day after tomorrow? Holy shiz, Dennis Quaid was right! Curse you, Dennis Quaid!
Gotta go now; the professor in the room I’m sitting near has begun to blast Elvis (no seriously, he is blasting it) and it is making me inexplicably happy. Be back later.
Peace out,
Will

In 1984, the movie Breakin’ released a sequel called “Breakin’ 2: Electric Boogaloo”. Because this name just sounded effin’ weird, as some would say, it’s become an unofficial moniker for all sequels released since. It got me thinking: What if other sequels came out with the same deal? Here’s what I came up with:
• Avatar II: Electric Blue-galoo
• Cinderella II: Electric Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boogaloo
• Flubber II: Electric Goo-galoo
• Ace Ventura II: Electric “Do Not…Mess… With The DO!“-galoo
• The Who’s new album, “Tommy II: Electric “Whooooo Are You”-galoo
• [Any porn movie] II: Electric Screw-galoo
• Rugrats II: Electric Stu-galoo (Oh God, not a whole movie about Stu Pickles…)
• The Hebrew Hammer II: Electric Jew-galoo
• Van Wilder II: Electric Brew-galoo
• Jungle Book II: Electric Baloo-galoo
• Hannah Montana II: Electric “No seriously, Hannah Montana. F— you”-galoo
• Air Buddies II: Electric Poo-galoo
• Pokemon II: Electric Mew-galoo
• Quagmire The Movie II: Electric Giggidy-Giggidy-Giggidy-Goo-galoo (AWWWWRIIIGHT!)
This is what I do in my free time.
Love, Will.

This is a completely true and uncut story of the best night ever. You may think differently. Therehence, you are a moron.
As part of the awesome staff that keeps watch over the radio station known as 92 WICB, I got to participate in a trip to Syracuse. The plan was pretty cut and dry: go to Dinosaur Barbeque and eat awesome sauce-covered meat, watch a Syracuse Crunch hockey game, go to a waffle place called Funk ‘N Waffles for some waffles, and drive home full and exhausted. Of course, for some of us, following the rules was not an option.

They can has guitars.
Just wanted to share with you what goes on at the radio station on a Friday night. Tonight was WICB’s Countdown To The Weekend. We got a local band called Blow! (consisting of Bruce Hyde and Johnny Zachman) in the studio to chill with us and play a few songs. DJing was Mike Citera, who was keeping laughs going even while the station manager Evan was screwing with the phone recording equipment. (Although hearing someone’s voice being played backward through the speakers is a little hilarious.)
Yes, I did capture this picture from the live feed on the website. You might think that I wasn’t actually there. However, my roommate Silvan was actually holding the mic on the right, and I was exiled to the alcove behind him. See that door? I was in the alcove behind that door blogging away. Boo.
Anyway, just a fun little clip of things I do around school. I thought you might appreciate it.
