National Championship + Campus Watch #27

The Longhorn baseball team won its 6th National Championship yesterday afternoon in fine fashion. Prompting this entry in today's Campus Watch crime report:

Consumption of Alcohol by a Minor (Disch-Falk Field, 1300 East Martin Luther King Blvd.)
Six UT students were found climbing over the south fence to the baseball stadium in an effort to hang a congratulatory banner for the National Champion UT Baseball Team. Many of the students were found to have consumed alcoholic beverages. One of the students who had consumed alcoholic beverages was found to be under the age of 21. Occurred on 6-26-05 at 6:00 PM.

Kids, you gotta learn when and where it's appropriate to be hanging congratulatory banners! Heh heh.

Campus Watch #26

From today's Campus Watch crime report:

Two unidentified male subjects ran through the 1st floor recreation room in a manner intended to draw attention from the three staff members in the area. The two subjects were reported as saying nothing but did "giggle" while they ran. The two subjects were described as white male subjects in their 20s. One subject was 5'8" tall, approximately 140 pounds with brown hair. The other subject was 5'10" tall, 170 pounds with brown hair. Both subjects were last seen wearing nothing. Occurred on 6-20-05 at 11:15 PM.

Hmmmm...streaking through the Union. Tsk tsk tsk.

Be a doll

Cyrus, at the ripe old age of 11, came into my office a couple of minutes ago with the following request:

"Joey, would you be a doll and let me into my dad's office?"

I laughed and let him in. Naturally. How could I possibly resist such a request? What a card.

Another update on the shooting

A two part article about the ex-professor that shot at our building in April and May appeared in the Daily Texan last week: part 1 and part 2. It's a sad story.

Goofy squirrel

I walked out of my building after work this evening and was startled to see this goofy fella:

'Made me laugh. The squirrel was just sitting back munching away at that nut. Or maybe it was an acorn. It looked like he'd dug up his prize and then settled in comfortably on top of the stuff he'd dug up. I moved a bit to the right (trying to get a better shot of the way he was sitting):

That's not quite what I was shooting for. But, the next time I moved, he darted up a tree. 'Guess he thought I might be trying to figure out how best to nab his dinner and he wanted none of it!
