If you're holding this column in your hands, the words you are reading are already dead. And when I say dead, I mean there's a salad fork sticking out of it the size of post-coke addiction Matthew Perry. The Dartmouth already gets more individual user hits on its web site per day than it prints issues. More alumni and current students read thedartmouth.com than well, I'm sure you get the point -- you're all smart enough. Print is dead. Curse technology for killing our culture and reducing human experience to inhumane pixels and bytes, right?
Within a week, the outdoor store of Main Street's Dartmouth Co-op will permanently shut its doors, prompted by increased competition in the already volatile market for outdoor goods.

In my daily perusal of the online sports media yesterday, I came across some sad, sad news. Much to my surprise and dismay, I read that defenseman Ulf Samuelsson, a 16-year veteran of the league, is retiring. It seems that no team was willing to take a risk on the hard-hitting defenseman.

The election is one week away. Pundits are talking about the "home stretch," or saying that the candidates are "rounding third," and using similar sports analogies. These analogies, while they appear to be used purely to make an article sound exciting, are important to our world of American politics. We live in a society where political discussions are usually associated with heterosexual masculinity and male-identified sports. Candidates don't just defeat their opponents by a wide margin, they "slam dunk" them. A good line in a debate is the "touchdown pass." These metaphors play upon the central notion that a politician must be tough to serve in office. Hence, generals like Eisenhower have an advantage, because they don't need to assert their masculinity. George H.W. Bush needed to overcome his image as a "wimp" in order to take the presidency. This rhetoric also defines women out of the political domain. We don't picture a WNBA player on the court; we picture Michael Jordan.

Whether you welcome it with open arms or cower underneath your desk in Unabomber-like apprehension of its magical, mysterious technology, there's no denying the influence the Internet has on today's society. Hailed as the "shiny new cotton-gin" for the 21st Century, the Internet's impact on the economy is already quite evident. Countless success stories from start-up company CEOs serve as daily reminders of what the American dream is all about--getting ridiculously rich while working at home in your underwear.
