Hanging on by two fingernails.

Been busy, as usual. Something that I have been meaning to do for a while now is post a few of the more hilarious police beats.
These are ridiculous, and often demonstrate the 'dark' 'seedy' underbelly of BYU campus. They are actual police reports filed at BYU and then read by a reporter at the DU (Daily Universe) and published weekly. Here are some gems from lask week:

Oct. 7 In Lot 48, A black Toyota was parked against a hill and the windows were fogged up. When the officer approached, the officer discovered a male and female in the car. After running the plates on the car, the officer noticed the owner of the car is banned from UVU’s campus for a sex offense. The officer warned the young woman that her companion was dangerous. The woman assured him that she was fine and the officer left

Oct. 5 A suspicious individual was knocking on apartment doors in Wymount Terrace wearing a Guy Fawkes mask. When the officers arrived, Guy had once again eluded the police.

Oct. 5
Two male students were arguing over dating. One was having a difficult time getting dates and was telling the other student about it. The second student joked that he didn’t have a difficult time getting dates and he could date the other student’s mother. The first student took offense and slammed the second student against a wall and brandished a knife. Upon arrival, the police arrested the first student for aggravated assault. However, the second student decided not to press charges, so the first student was released.


Oct. 5
At Helaman Halls, several males covering their faces with T-shirts were running down residence hallways throwing firecrackers. The perpetrators were gone before the police arrived.


Yep, riduculous.

I've been bouncing back and forth between my two jobs and school, so I have been hard pressed to update. In fact, I am currently sitting in the newsroom and watching the TCU-BYU game. I am forced to multitask to get anything done, and for those who know me, that should be worrisome. I went to the last BYU game with my father. A really nice guy named Brandon who is the Editor here at the DU hooked me up with tickets. Surprisingly enough, BYU won, and the weather was good.


As I said a while ago, a feature that I was going to run was Good Song/Bad Video. This song might not be considered good by many of you, but I like it. And also, even though the video is really bizarre and pointless,I like it aswell for some reason. Must be the mariachi at the end. Who knows. Maybe it's the bird and monkey. But all that doesn't change the fact that the video sucks. I mean, it's generally considered bed form and amateur to show an example of what ever the song lyric says as it is said. Anyway, enjoy:




Also, just because I found this commercial and find it hilarious.
