Gentle readers,
We may attempt to blog the entirety of Harvard-Yale weekend via cell phone. We have to settle some technical issues first, though, so no promises.
Also, FAS seems to have gobbled up all our images, leaving the site for the most part image-less. "Gobble" is a fun word to say.
Or is he merely sleeping?
Mwah.
Thank you for all the memories

i am so sad. the only thing that would make me feel better right now is a spoon from leah, and the fact that i can't have one makes me even sadder, thus intensifying the desire to spoon...i may have to break my two week promise of sobriety, or buy a clay aiken CD, maybe both.

This Thursday, Neeraj "Richie" Banerji will graduate from college. To celebrate the occasion, here are some of his thoughts from early in his college career, compiled by our freshman year entryway.
âYou guys have made me a badass in one week!â
"I wish I hadn't said 'underwear' yesterday."
"We should start talking in the vernacular more."
"Teddy's getting us in too much trouble. Let's lynch the fucker!"
"You can shove it up your ass?! That's not an effective way of taking a tablet!"
"Fine, that computer's like a hooker... I'm like a hooker, I like having a hooker in the room, OK?!"
"I'm not a badass! I'm a bloody good-ass!"
"You don't need good looks, or a good personality. You just need a shirt that says "India"." [Richie on getting girls]
"It's crazy mofo USA!" [upon walking into the room]
"What is this, a kimono? What are you wearing now?"
"It was just like... I'm chickenshit."
"Fuck! It's past midnight. I'm such a badass."
"Oh fuck, look at Playboy! It's thirty bucks if you buy it... Time, Time! Fuck!"
"Greg - Let's go knock on five people's doors. And run. And we cannot be caught by anybody."
"This is the most interesting thing I've seen in a very long time."
"You pricky bum! You don't bloody write that on the sticky notes!"
"We're Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid... I'm Butch Cassidy... You can be the Sundance kid."
"That was the most macabre piece of shit I've ever heard."
"We're living in a bloody slob-mansion!"
"I'm emperor badass!"
"I lull people into an unsuspecting position..."
"Lobster roll? That's not a good way to start the day!" [on Greg's breakfast]
"I've just never received so much enjoyment in calling myself a badass before."
"The wind is the biggest badass!"
"That would be a faux paus of incredible proportions."
"That's the word... this room is a freak show!"
"I can kill people by thinking bad thoughts, OK." [while staring at Greg]
"My name is freakazoid. Hello to you my brother from way across the seas."
"No you wouldn't, you fuck! You would not have done anything for anyone." [on Teddy's hopes for a Undergraduate Council campaign]
"It wasn't supposed to be like this, dammit! It wasn't supposed to be like this!" [when he realized he actually had to do homework]
"His name's Teddy Bressman. We need to Lysol his ass."
"Let's go slap this on people's dorms!" [while holding a belt]
"Are you going to put me in a little hampster thing and make me run?" [while doing the doggy paddle in the air]
"Fucking hell! I came to this country to study! I got stuck with the weirdest fucking Americans I could live with!"
"Nothing I say is of consequence. And it's been that way since I was born."
"I need someone to even out the whole Teddy-Seamus Axis of Evil."
"This fucking country! Your whole social life is getting smashed!"
"I'm not a weird "fucker," dammit!" [Richie on girls]
"You can't fucking bracket everything, dammit." [Richie on Greg's bracketing practices]
"That bitch just didn't respond! I hope my sex life is not like that." [On the Social Committee elections]
"You added like three things in five minutes!" [This is the fourth]
"Dikko, I've got my eyes on you." [Talking to his, um...]
"Make it k-k-o, fucker!" [making me change the above to 'dikko' from 'dicko']
"Let's drive a stake through his heart and see if he dies."
"Fucking shit! I should have done that today instead of, like, doing nothing." [Richie on homework]
"What the fuck? How are you listening to good music?" [Richie to Teddy]
"No I didn't make you a web site, you dick." [In response to Teddy's question 'Did you make me a website?']
"Why would I make you a bloody website? I'm not in love with you. I'd have to love you enough to write HTML code on you." [elaborating]
"Maybe in the future." [30 seconds later]
"Stop getting prison dreams, dude. We're not in a prison cell. We're in a college."
"You're on last week, Sandel!" [shouted during lecture]
"We pulled out defeat from the jaws of victory. What the fuck?!" [On the Social Committee elections]
"I said 'Dammit, he's the most respectable president I've ever seen.'" [On Martin Sheen]

"We need a spoon and a girl..."
"We already know whatever there is to know about Leah."
"Don't blame the poor sod! Blame his bloody 'head manipulator'!" [On Teddy's hairstyling practices]
"[Name deleted] embodies both filthy and rich."
"Dammit, I'm not profane!"
"But that was a nice, fictional massacre." [Explaining why he'd rather see 'Red Dragon' than "Bowling for Columbine"]
"The bugger's really old!" [on Fidel Castro]
"You mucking around in the trash now, boy? That's a comedown."
"He's a prick of immense proportions" [Ritchie on a fourteen year-old]
"Have you got bloody napalm for brains?"
"If you eat this bloody meat stuff, you're going to die. OK?" [Richie while examining the refrigerator contents]
"Is that Mitt Romney? That's a dilapidated old fucker!" [Richie on a random old guy he saw]
"I'm playing Orfeo! Wow." [Richie discovers the internet]
"This woman is like, fornicated in the cranium."
"I mean, like, fucked in the head" [clarifying]
"It's like, you're the hair, and you're not the man anymore."
"There's a whole series of sinusoidal equations happening on top of your head."
"My hair's like uniformally Golliwog weird all over."
"You don't know what a Golliwog is? How can you not know what a Golliwog is?"
"Fucker, I didn't say that!" [protesting the implication that he would say "fucker"]
"He was a deaf fucker." [Richie on Beethoven]
"Don't put the word 'fucker' there."
"I use the word for fornication so casually and so many times."
"How can you not know what a Golliwog is?" [five minutes later]

"I was talking to the commercial." [Thirty seconds later]
"I'm just Asian, fuck the Cauc!" [Richie on race]
"The movie makes it so obvious. She's an obtuse ass!" [Richie on Clarice Starling]
"Shoot the bugger and then make a phone call!" [Richie's strategy as a police officer]
"If you're gonna expel something, you expel it outside!"
"You've farted like, twenty times! I've noticed it, like, thrice!"
"This is amazing! It has a tassel! I've never worn anything with a tassel before!" [Richie on his new fez]
"Uh, sleep?" [In response to the 2 a.m. question "what are your plans for the night?"]
"In no culture have I seen that to be an accomplishment." [on Teddy's six hour nap in the middle of the day]
"I think it's one of the biggest accomplishments possible." [says Teddy]
"Fucking, fucking battery operated toy! Fucking prick! That bastard!" [Richie on Teddy's hockey robot]
"Are candy canes supposed to be all minty?"
"She said 'hot' thrice?!"
"Fucker-dog! You're gonna die tonight!"
"Not even 768 megabytes can handle that shit!"
"There's a bloody wall on campus that quotes Emerson, that doesn't make it smart."
"I don't need to burp. URP."

This has come up in at least one other post, and quite frequently in the last 48 hours so I thought it was time to lay down the law. The law(s) of spooning that is.
Neeraj âRichieâ Banerji astutely observed:
âSpooning is like currency in your room!â
Itâs true. Spooning is like currency. The ULTIMATE currency that is.
I donât understand how you people canât like spooning.
And by âyou peopleâ I mean âyou people that give me pitying looks and mock my inclinations to spoon.â Iâm looking at you, Richie Banerji , Josh Patashnik , and Ariana Kroshinsky .
So I did some research to figure out why these lovely people wouldnât like spooning. Hereâs what I found:
Teddy âspooningâ with Richie.
Ariana bit me when I asked her to spoon at Unoâs.
Josh, I have to admit, Iâm a little surprised youâre not a spooning fan after thisâ¦
So for these three lovelies, I have written this treatise on spooning. As in, lots of lovely pictures of people with whom you should be spooning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Letâs start with a couple donâts.
1. Donât count on spooning with spoon teases
From: Peter Dodd To: eliot-list@lists.hcs.harvard.edu
Date: May 19, 2006 4:17 PM
Subject: [Eliot-list] Commencement Ticket...If anyone is willing to sell 1 commencement ticket to me for my
godmother, I will happily give you
my unyielding love and affection and some sort of monetary payment.Please let me know,
Peter Dodd

Subject: Re: [Eliot-list] Commencement Ticket...don't trust him if he offers spooning...he has debts all over town.
1.5 Iâm not even sure best spoon teases make the best spooners
2. Spooning is not a remedy for illness. It is a necessity for health
From: Ariana Kroshinsky To: litman@fas.harvard.edu Cc: Greg Schmidt , [Redacted] Date: May 23, 2006 12:15 AM Subject: Re: [Redacted] someone distract me
bosch is gone. :: single tear ::
someone spoon with leah, she's getting mean.
3. Never offer other peope to spoon in your place
From: Leah Litman
To: John Stanton Haddock
Cc: [Redacted ]
Date: May 21, 2006 1:00 AM
Subject: Re: [Redacted] (no subject)
PS I am not a lushPPS Courtney is not here, will anyone spoon with me??????????
From: Josh Patashnik
To: litman@fas.harvard.edu, John Stanton Haddock
Cc: Redacted

Subject: RE: [Redacted] (no subject)I bet [Redacted] is available.
Alright, onto my spooning highlights:
1. Anything that involves David Blazar
From: Leah Litman To: Neeraj Richie Banerji, David Lebowitz Blazar, Greg Schmidt Date: May 13, 2006 7:50 PM Subject: We're watching another movie tonight Care to join?
Maybe David will spoon with me for > 5 min
Leah
2. When the going gets toughâ¦.
A gift from my Stinkler
3. We never came up with a name for ourselves, but Team Spoon works well.
Tracy was the inspiration for my photoshopping skills which I have employed vigorously in my posts:
Andrew Stillman likes my photoshopping so I made one especially for him. Maybe he will spoon with me.
4. I love (spooning with) my friends
5 And, for a special treat, Iâve included a lesson in what not to do with spooning, courtesy of our intern.
Iâll let this one pass by on the effort scale.
So, in conclusion, MORE SPOONING!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Blogging is much more difficult when you spend your days playing badminton in the Eliot courtyard rather than slaving away at a keyboard through the night. But since I've been delinquent virtually since the end of 2x2 (having four finals in five days also presents certain obstacles to blogging), I figured I should pitch in somehow.
-Â It's likely that in next five years, I'll spend 2 years as a teacher, even though I probably don't want to teach professionally, and 3 years in law school, even though I probably don't want to practice law. Maybe I should top it all off by spending some time in med school to pursue a career of not-being-a-doctor.
- Far be it from me to question the merits of two weeks of hanging around with nothing to do, but how exactly does Harvard justify senior week? Ie, in what meeting did somebody say "hey, instead of graduating, how about the seniors stick around for two weeks so they can party/drink/play badminton," and how did such a proposal get implemented? Do other schools have this?
- Instead of having journalists and pundits moderate gubernatorial/senatorial/presidential debates, they should have judges moderate them. That way you could swear all the candidates in at the start of the debate, and if they lie you could bring them up on perjury charges. Sure, it'd make debates even more dull and scripted, and it'd probably leave the country hobbled with endless court cases on the grounds that candidate X did not, in fact, "make America stronger," but what a concept.
- Anybody know good places to live in Brooklyn, especially Park Slope? Mostly I think we're looking at Park Slope, but if other areas make a better middle ground between good and cheap, please do enlighten me.
- Greg Schmidt is far too common a name. "gschmidt@post.harvard.edu" was taken, but fortunately I was still able to snag "gregschmidt," so that's not so bad. Registering a gmail account was where I ran into trouble - every possible variant on Greg Schmidt is taken - with dots, without dots, with initials, etc, so i finally settled for the 20-character monstrosity that is gregmacdonaldschmidt. This prompted me to check if www.gregschmidt.com is taken: not only is it taken, but it's only "annually updated," and the guy links to the Drudge Report. Gah.
- This morning I watched the last few minutes of the West Wing that I had never before seen. It was a three minute intro to a season 6 episode that had Leo talking in Spanish to a wholly unconvincing Fidel Castro impersonator. I kind of wish I had just let the unknown remain unknown. On the other hand, now that I've seen every second of the West Wing I suppose I'm qualified to graduate from college.

Like the four library books sitting next to my door, this post is long overdue. I had planned to write it on Saturday, but Friday was a night for celebration followed by a weekend furlough in Louisiana that somehow stranded me in Chicago. Now that I'm back, here are the results that you've all been waiting for, the winners and honorable mentions in the first-ever Team Zebra "Photoshop our Intern" contest.
And the winner is:
"Intern Lisa"
(click to enlarge)
To be honest, I made that myself. But this is my contest, and I made the rules, so clearly I'm allowed to declare myself the winner. Alright, and now for some of the submissions...
HONORABLE MENTION:
1. Matt Greenfield. This one is creepy but employs probably the best photoshop skills displayed in this contest. Bonus points for employing a zebra. Also, I'm sure that Matt Glazer will be thrilled to grace our pages in this dignified manner befitting a former president (Happy Birthday Glaze).
2. Leah Litman - New Rule, only one photoshop of my mom allowed per contest. However, even she would admire this handiwork:
3. Tom Hadfield. In answer to the question in my last full post, it seems that Mr. Hadfield does still read our blog. And perhaps has strange fantasies about our intern.
4. Matt Sundquist. Clearly you could have put more effort into this one. But thanks for playing.
DISHONORABLE MENTION:
Randall Sarafa - Sorry, Randall, the team doesn't like recycled material that we may have already seen on the UC list.
Victor Alcalde - Dude, you totally inspired this contest and then didn't submit an entry. All you sent me is an "if they mated" photo of John Haddock & Annie Riley that is purported to resemble Matt Glazer. This one is also Recycled. Please refer to my admonition of Randal Sarafa above.
Courtney - I refuse to post this one, not because it involves 2 zebra "in action,"
(possibly with my face and petersen's face attached to their heads) but because of the lack of initiative in photoshopping our heads onto the zebra. While I might accept this amateur attempt from someone like Matt Sundquist, you and I both know that you are a professional.
Neeraj "Richie" Banerji - I think that you confused my contest with the TZ favourite "Pin-The-Intern on the Zorse"
ONE LAST PHOTOSHOP:
I call this one Intern of Liberty. Yes, I made it myself.
Thanks for playing along at home.

THIS HAS BEEN AN AWESOME CONTEST HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA And Chadbourne clearly my submission belonged in the Honorable Mention category :-)

This post is long overdue. I feel like Iâve been giving off kind of the wrong impression on this blog. I say âkind ofâ because Iâm not going to bother pretending Iâm not judgmental and full of disdainful sarcasm. But itâs just not all of the time. Just sometimes⦠very frequently.
So I decided it was time to balance this out. I usually hate on people, also extracurriculars here at Harvard, other extracurriculars here at Harvard( over and over again), and other miscellaneous things like facebook. Be that as it may, I decided to show some love. Donât hold your breath waiting for this to happen again.
This is kind of like my gratitude assignment for Positive Psych, where you're supposed to list the things youâre grateful for.
Hereâs a sample gratitude list of mine:
1. The stupid people in section who make me look smart
2. Dining hall now has organic peanut butter AND whipped cream
3. Peter promised he would spoon with me. Again.
4. Thank God I took quantum pass/fail.
5. John didnât call me a whoreface today.
Iâm not sure thatâs quite what they were looking for, but whatever. Think of it as learning to fail. Iâm trying harder now. So hereâs a (real) list of people and things I am grateful for/I like:

This is also the best two minutes of music

It is my goal in life when I become a "big person" to be more like each of them.
If you are at all interested in violence prevention and education (from whatever perspective), being an educator was an amazing experience. Email Heather if you have any questions

That would be the 5 course meal (creme brulee, chocolate cake, lemon sorbet, creampuffs, and.... pineapple angel food cake with Ian. In that order of course). Duh.

A really fat cat, of course. Alternatively, we could be friends with this
kid and then tease him unmercifully.

know.Oh, and has anyone seen Arik Motskin? We haven't seen him in a couple of days
and we think the rats got him.Ed
PS Can we also borrow roach traps from a couple of people?
These were just random ass gratitude thingees I came up with (I'm done with sappy mode now) but if I've missed something, feel free to e-mail me with your suggestions. I'll make fun of your e-mail a little, but not before waxing nostalgic and getting all sappy again about the last four years, again. Oh senior week what have you done with my bitterness and rage?

If you haven't met me, I'm from Charleston, South Carolina. Now, people malign the south for many a thing, but when it comes to being polite and warm, no one beats us. Indeed, Majbelle Young Stuart has bestowed the honor of "best-mannered" city in the U.S. on my hometown for 11 consecutive years. Yay Charleston!
In Boston, it's a much different story. Bostonians are some of the rudest people with whom I've ever come into contact. In my four years here, I've literally been shoved by, yelled at, and mostly just disrepected by these unhappy, little people. I suspect Bostonians must be bitter that after that first cold winter at Plymouth, they've been unable to escape the Siberian greyness that they unfortunately must still call home. But to the story at hand:
So after having a night of badminton, nostalgia, and really good zebra-colored, oreo ice-cream cake, a happy band of your own TZers (Bressman, Banerji, Litman, and myself) were walking back with some friends from Greg's end of the year BBQ, when our magical evening was interrupted by a not so magical run-in with one of Boston's O-so-charming denizens. As the Green T train pulled up to Newton center station, the group of us sprinted across the track to get in line. Having made it safely and now standing in line, one Tom "McChuckles" McSorley stepped onto the train, token at the ready, to get on. The evil, club-footed, female driver gave him a look of disgust, saw the line behind him, and shut the train door, forcing him to quickly remove his foot for fear of an unplanned amputation.
Then, this resentful, demon-like woman drove off into the darkness, leaving 20 customers stranded for another 25 minutes in Newton. There were screams of shock and dismay as the train sped off, all of us patiently staying in line.
So I've decided I've had all the rudeness I can take from one god-forsaken city. Bostonians need to realize that rudeness is equal to disrepsecting a fellow human being. Thus, in order to make them realize that, we will attempt to equate being called "rude" with being called a far more stygmatizing adjective, namely "racist."
And thus, our plan sprung into action. Immediately, Richie called Polina (who had successfully made it past the rude/racist driver onto the train) in order to get the number of the Green, D-line vehicle so to report her behavior.
A report to the MBTA will be filed sometime today. However, because we know that the Team would be laughed at if we merely reported rudeness in a city where everyone is rude as a mode of survival, we're upping the ante a bit. Our report will tell the tale of a young, naive Indian boy named Richie who stepped onto a Green Line train, token in hand, who then met eyes with the T driver. That woman looked at our hero, let one word slip from her breath -- "terrorist" -- then closed the door, driving off and leaving our idealistic, West-Wing-watching friend as heart-broken as Charlie was when he learned the bullet that struck President Bartlett had been meant for him. By making the consequence of rudeness be likened to that of being something much worse, a racist, the Team hopes to make being polite something that people in this city care about. So, to the denizens of Boston, I say let this not be a moment of derision, but rather, an opportunity. An opportunity to start anew and begin respecting your fellow residents and those visitors who come to your city from afar. An opportunity to be proud of your home and express that pride through the respect you give those around you. And to the driver of Car 3718B, I say, beware: your rudeness will go unnoticed no longer! Viva la Revolution!

We apologize for the lack of previously scheduled programming on the TZ blog, but we have been distracted. It's our SENIOR WEEK!
Here's a preview. Watch this space for updates!
Sat May 27: Burden, Greg and I take the Sam Adams Brewery Tour with McChuckles. We sample Sam Adams Boston Lager, a summer wheat brew, their white ale and a really crappy cherry flavored crapola. Greg insists on eating at California Pizza Kitchen while we head to the Kong and eat enough to die at 6pm.
Sun May 28: Pretty quiet and good weather. Some drinking seems to be on the horizon. Prediction: Teddy Bressman - who is rumored to be away in Cape Cod - shall make a return.
Mon May 29: A winery tour (Chad you gotta tell us how it goes)! A BBQ at Greg's ancestral mansion in Newton! (Prediction: Leah picks a fight with some commoners.) Senior casino night at Mohegan Sun - which Burden is driving to! Lame!
Tue May 30: Senior Booze Cruise. Prediction: A TZ member will save a fellow senior from certain drowning by the clever use of their zebra tie.
Wed May 31: The Last Chance Dance! An opportunity to list your fave 15 is here. Prediction: at least 50% of the gathering will show up in "stoplight" themed clothing because Aaron Chadbourne spammed the senior class saying so. The catch: that's not supposed to be the dress code.
Thu Jun 1: Senior Luau in the Quad! Senior Talent Show! Prediction: a streaker on stage after The Blanks and before the SAA Senior Dance. No, I'm not planning anything.
Watch this space for updates!
