Cannon Ball, Baltimore Jack, Swiss Cheese, Noy and Bull Dog were gathered together in the Tabard basement yesterday. These aren't new brands of beer -- they're a special breed of Hanover visitors called thru-hikers.

Last week the Massachusetts House and Senate passed bills that would put $312 million of public funds towards a new home for the Boston Red Sox. The deal has the backing of Gov. Paul Celluci and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and, if you believe the politicians and the Red Sox, of the public as well.

Since it's summer (for one more month, at least) and I've driven home to watch reruns of the Simpsons and work a little, I've noticed how much more intelligent I am at home. Now that last statement may sound arrogant, but it's true -- I've suddenly become an intellectual, something of the person I was in high school. I've suddenly started reading books at a faster pace than at any time since the second grade -- only then I was reading books called "Freddy's Adventures to the Mushroom Planet" (And that writer was on what?).

I have only lived on Webster Avenue for about eight weeks, but it suddenly feels like a lot longer. Not because I'm unhappy -- I'm not -- but because I feel incredibly sheltered. It's been quite a while since I was last exposed to anti-Greek sentiment, and in the meantime I've gone from a freshman who did not intend to rush, to a sophomore pledge wearing my letters and assorted strange costumes to class. People stopped complaining about the Greek system to my face as soon as I became a part of it. A few terms after the D's front page proclaimed "The end of the Greek system as we know it," the rants and raves both for and against seemed to die down. For whatever reason, last night was the first time I have ever felt judged and attacked for being a member of a sorority. It was also, to be fair, a night that led me to realize just how badly members of the Greek system sometimes behave as a whole, resulting in exactly the kind of blanket judgments and generalizations I heard expressed.

LOS ANGELES -- Local residents of cities hosting political conventions can sometimes feel overwhelmed by the glitz, the plague of media representatives and surprise appearances by political and entertainment megastars. The tables may be turned at this year's Democratic National Convention in Los Angeles. Convention attendees got their first taste of Hollywoodland as they flew in over the city and saw the words "Welcome to Los Angeles" spelled out in an aerial-view-only, using 50-foot cement columns with lights on top. The palm-tree lined highways and signs pointing to Rodeo Drive and Beverly Hills seem more like the setting for a teen television series than a national political convention. Even veterans of political parties were surprised by the lavishness of the Saturday night welcoming party, which featured a slide show on a 50-story building and 15,000 person guest list.

Dartmouth College requires every student to have a computer. Computers are very useful tools. With computers students can look up the average yearly rainfall in Uzbekistan, research golden retriever breeders in the northeast or find pretty much anything else they might desire. At Dartmouth, computers also come equiped with handy tools like word processing and BlitzMail.

I love the summer. Especially here at Dartmouth, where I'm allowed to take two classes, NRO one of them, and spend the rest of the time playing sports and enjoying the outdoors. But those who know my writing know that my articles are very rarely about something that is right in the sports world, and this is no exception.
