Editors Notes
Too often, we judge our intake of healthful
foods only by what we eat, forgetting the other
half is what we drink. We all know we should limit
our consumption of soda and alcohol and drink
plenty of water, but what else should we be think-
ing about when we take a sip of that cold beverage?
Fresh fruits and vegetables are more difficult to find and more
expensive during these cold months, but as Britta Florman dis-
cusses in Juice up your Diet on page six, we dont have to
forego all their nutrients. Fresh-squeezed juice provides more
benefits than its bottled cousins, but you can also try different
combinations to custom make your own health cocktail. And
check out Liz Beggss investigation of everything milk in Udder
Confusion on page 10. Besides your daily value of Vitamin D,
you may also be chugging hormones and pesticides.
Bottoms up. Misty Huber, editor

On the runway this season you can
expect to find satin sashes, capelets and
duct tape? Thats rightduct tape, and
this year it will be used for more than
improving your cleavage.
The sticky stuff has been common in
American households since World War II.
But not until recently has it become a
familiar material in American closets.
Duct tape is flexible, durable and water-
proof, which makes it the perfect material
for making wallets, purses and other
accessories. Heather Sefcik, media rela-
tions manager for Henkel Consumer
Adhesives Inc., says part of the appeal is
that duct tape items are unique.
Its an interesting phenomenon, she
says. People can get really creative. Its
something people grew up with and its a
familiar item that can be used in a cool,
new way.
The Henkel Consumer Adhesive Com-
pany makes Duck Tape. Because of the
consumer feedback, it has created the
Duck Tape Club where artists can send in
photos and instructions for their tape cre-
ations.
Keith Drone, founder of ducttapefash-
ion.com, says that there might be another
reason for the tapes appeal. People like
shiny objects, Drone says. Using it in
accessories and clothing is just another
use for it.
People everywhere, like Drone and his
designers, are creating all kinds of duct-
tape items. From wallets to backpacks and
hats to entire ensembles, the silver tape
can be a creative persons dream.
Mark Adams, Overland Park senior,
started creating wallets, hats and even
duct-tape shorts during high school.
People should experiment with differ-
ent brands of duct tape, he says. The
more time and care you put into your
work, the better it will be.
He says the best part about creating
your own duct-tape accessory is that you
can customize it to fit you. You can add as
many card-holding slots, windows, pock-
ets or anything else as you want, he says.
On ducttapefashion.comhandbags are
priced between $15 and $24. Wallets start
at $10, and you can even pick up an
adjustable guitar strap or a dozen duct-
tape roses while youre there. At local
craft stores, you can choose between 19
colors and patterns of duct tape for about
$3 a roll and put your creativity to use to
make the perfect bag for you. For a simple
design, create four separate panels and
assemble them.
1. Decide on your pattern: Stripe, solid,
camoflauge, and what colors. The com-
pleted front panel will measure 7 inches
by 11 inches.
2. To make the front panel, lay 7-inch
strips of tape, sticky side up, overlapping
the edges. Next lay 7-inch strips sticky
side down to cover the pattern.
3. Repeat this process to make the back
panel.
3. To create the side/bottom/side panel
you will need three 27-inch strips of duct
tape. First, lay two strips sticky side up,
overlapping by 1 inch.
4. The third strip is placed sticky side
down in the center. Turn over the sticky
edges.
5. To assemble: Center the two panels,
and attach them with a strip of tape 7
inches long on the inside of the back and
the outside. Then use two pieces on each
side to secure the panels to the side/bot-
tom/side. Lift the side/bottom/side panel
and tape it to the front and back panels.
Add extra pieces of tape to finish off edges
and bottom. Trim off the excess tape.
Experiment with colors like flamingo
pink and island lime and dont be afraid of
patterns. Look at designer handbags for
inspiration, and if you mess up, just un-
stick it, and try again. Drone says to use
your creativity to make something
unique.
Duct tape is only as amazine as the
imagination wields it, he says.

A new trend sticks to them all
Quick Fix Button, button, oh God, what happened to my button?
Photos by Jon Tran
Nothing beats the good old-fashioned
button when it comes to holding your
clothes on and your shirts closeduntil
the button falls off. Then youre stuck
with a loose button and a bunch of
ragged threads.
While sewing on a button sounds
daunting, its pretty simple. Just follow
these simple steps from Gail Trottier, cut-
ter/draper for University Theatre.
1. Remove all of the broken thread from
the fabric. It will just get in your way later
and create unneeded bulk.
2. Find thread that matches as close as
possible the original thread.
3. Thread your needle. When threading,
Trottier advises doubling your thread to
make the process faster. Tie a knot at the
tail end of the thread.
4. Put your needle through the fabric,
starting from the side that would be worn
against the body.
5. Bring the needle through a buttonhole
from the back of the button to the front,
and then pull the needle through a differ-
ent hole from front to back. Bring the nee-
dle through the shirt and pull tightly.
Repeat this step a couple of times until
the button is secure.
6. Make a double knot in the thread on
the side of the fabric that would be worn
against the body. If you make a single
knot, it will just come out.

Feel like youre coming down with a
cold? Need an energy boost? Fresh juices
made from fruits and vegetables can help
power up your tired, overworked self this
winter. By juicing different combinations
of fruits, vegetables and herbs such as car-
rots, apples, beets, cucumber, celery,
spinach, garlic and parsley, you can create
the perfect drink to help you feel better and
build up your immune system.
A Scientific Explanation.
Fresh juice can provide health benefits
like no other drink. Although bottled juices
can have nutritional value, these pre-
made drinks lack the thriving enzymes
present in fresh juice. Removed from their
food counterpart, enzymes have a differ-
ent effect on the body.
Hal Sears, wellness manager at the
Community Mercantile explains that
enzymes function to aide digestion and
eliminate waste and free radicals, which
are unstable molecules that can cause
cancer. When they are consumed with the
vitamins and minerals of the fruit and veg-
etable juices, the body quickly absorbs the
nutrients, and enzymes work to eliminate
pre-existing waste.
Does this sound confusing? Basically,
when you drink fresh juice, your body
quickly absorbs the nutrients of the raw
fruit or vegetable, requiring almost no
effort by the digestive system. This advan-
tage of drinking fresh juice is receiving all
of the nutritional benefits of vegetables
and fruits without actually eating them.
A Real-Life Juicer
Lawrence sophomore Melissa Brewer
attributes her interest in juicing to her
father.
My dads a health nut, she says.
Brewers father taught her well; she lists
some of the wide-ranging benefits of fresh
juice. It provides vitamins, antioxidants
and is good for the hair, skin and nails,
Brewer says.
No Juicer, No Problem
Since most of us dont own a juicer, the
Juice Stop and the Community Mercantile
(the Merc) both offer fresh-made juices to
order. Brewer says carrot, apple and pars-
ley comprise her favorite juice combina-
tion, which is available at both juice shops.
The important antioxidant vitamin C in
apples helps maintain healthy skin and
bones, boosts the immune system and
helps the body utilize the iron in parsley,
which is also detoxifying.
The Juice Stop also offers earthy-tast-
ing wheatgrass shots. A 1-ounce shot of
wheatgrass juice is nutritionally equiva-
lent to 2 1/2 pounds of raw vegetables. A
wheatgrass shot is a quick way to energize
you; it helps detoxify and regenerate the
liver and blood.
If the wheatgrass is too extreme for your
palate, vegetable and fruit juice may be
better for you. The Juice Stop and the
Merc both have menus suggesting differ-
ent drink combinations. Try one of those,
or create your own mix of
yummy, healthy vegeta-
bles and/or fruits.
These ingredients, when
juiced, can provide the fol-
lowing benefits:
Beets stimulate the liver
and help cleanse the
digestive system.
Oranges and apples are
packed with the antioxi-
dant vitamin C, which
helps boost the immune
system and rid the body of
free radicals.
Celery can help purify
the blood, kidneys and
bladder.
Cucumber is cooling to
the body and is a mild
diuretic.
Garlic has antiviral and
antibacterial properties.
Ginger protects against
respiratory infections,
aids digestion and warms
the body by stimulating circulation.
Spinach is rich in antioxidants, which
help slow cell degeneration; its also high
in calcium, folic acid and vitamin A.
Carrots and red peppers contain the
important antioxidant beta-carotene,
which converts to vitamin A in the body
and helps you maintain healthy vision.

fits from Tracy Rutherfords Power Drinks
and Energy Tonics (2002).

Super short supper
Aladdin Caf
1021 Massachusetts Street
Food type: Authentic Middle-Eastern cuisine, including falafel,
hummus, tabouli, gyros, dolmas, couscous, kababs, sand-
wiches, vegetarian dishes and baklava.
Price range: $5 to $15
Attire: The atmosphere is nice and comfortable, so casual attire
works just fine.
Date-worthiness: Definitely. The restaurant is usually quiet and
not crowded, so you can focus entirely on the experience. The
lighting isnt bright and the exotic decorations add to the intimate
ambiance.
Booze availability: Aladdins doesnt serve alcohol, but youre
welcome to bring your own bottle of wine or whatever to accom-
pany your meal.
Seating: There are some tables outside the restaurant for dining
alfresco. Inside, in addition to tables and booths, an area in the
back offers a trip reminiscent of Arabian Nights, with big cush-
ions on the floor for sitting, small tables and traditional decora-
tions.
Mom factor: Though this restaurant has a romantic atmos-
phere, it would also be perfect to take your family or go out with
friends. If you are looking to turn a casual evening into something
with an ethnic flair, this is the perfect choice.

It wasnt about someone else. It wasnt
about an argument. It wasnt even about
Danae DeShazer and her boyfriend being
in a long distance relationship.
Something happened in late November
that made the Overland Park freshman
realize it was over with her boyfriend of
one year and three months.
DeShazer says she started noticing her-
self talking to her sorority sisters more
than her boyfriend about her problems. It
came to a point where I felt like I couldnt
even talk to him anymore, DeShazer
says.
Karen Harrison, marriage and family
therapist, says there are common signs
when a relationship is over. Distancing
oneself from the relationship, not spend-
ing as much time with a partner, being
more critical of one another and express-
ing the desire to date around when a cou-
ple has been in a monogamous relation-
ship, are the typical signs.
Two weeks before the break up,
DeShazer says she called her boyfriend
less often.
DeShazer says she just lost the feelings
she once had for him, and that if they did-
nt break up she would be forcing herself to
love him when she didnt.
You can work through so many things,
but once you hit the point where youre
forcing the relationship, its over,
DeShazer says.
Chris Pieschl, Stillwell senior, says he
noticed his girlfriend acting differently at
his military ball. She broke up with him
later that night. Before the breakup, he
says she didnt call as much as she used to,
and she also lost interest in the things she
normally wanted to do.
Harrison says its common for couples
to stay together even when they know its
over. These people are afraid to move on
and are scared they wont find another
relationship. This type of behavior usually
ends up with the couple fighting more or
becoming co-dependent, she says.
DeShazer says the ultimate warning
sign their relationship was over was that
she lost that feeling for him.
For a couple who is dating and also
fighting a lot, Harrison says there are two
solutions: break up or go to a counselor or
communications class to learn how to
communicate more effectively. Harrison
says problems that have not been going
on for long are easier to fix.
Harrison says that couples shouldnt
settle for someone they dont get along
with.
People tend to settle for a person too
quickly, she says.
Harrison says friends are another valu-
able resource to see how a relationship
is going.
Friends are more objective, and if you
have several friends who dont like them,
you should seriously consider their opin-
ion, Harrison says.
Alexis Hallman, Kansas City, Kan., senior,
and Jeremy Kanarek, Mexico City senior,
met in the parking lot of the Hawker apart-
ments where both lived at the time. Alexis
was on her way to teach voice lessons in
Kansas City, when she realized her car did-
nt have gas. Jeremy, who just happened to
be there at the moment, offered her a ride.
Going against her better judgment of not
riding with strangers, Alexis accepted the
offer. The car ride developed into friend-
ship. After two years of knowing each other,
Jeremy and Alexis say theyre now totally
committed to each other.

*Ryan remembers it clearly: It was one of
those nights with a sky so overcast and dark
that the very air around him seemed to be
made of some sooty ether, blotting out
heavenly bodies and sucking the light out
of the lamps before it could reach him.
It was perfect.
He and his friends had decided it being
early enough in the second semester of his
sophomore year that none of them had
anything better to do that they should
explore the tunnels under campus. Every-
one knew they were there, but no one knew
much about them beyond that. They were a
curious lot by nature, and the tunnels
picked at their imaginations.
They also had a pretty good idea that the
KU Public Safety Office wouldnt be too
keen about a half-dozen college students
wandering around in the tunnels, so the
darkness of the evening worked in well with
their plans to go exploring.
They were right, of course. Jim Long,
vice provost for facilities planning and
management, says entering the tunnels
without authorization amounts to criminal
trespass. That is why Ryans name has been
changed for this article.
Their chosen place of entry was the man-
hole just up the hill from Spencer Museum
of Art. One of Ryans friends had done some
preliminary probing and discovered that it
had an easy cover to pry up. Once they had
removed the heavy obstacle, they dropped
down into the tunnels mouth one by one,
leaving two guys topside to cover the lid
and wait for their return.
Underground, the tunnels were unnatu-
rally warm and smelled like an old attic.
They were lit, at least, by a series of bare
lightbulbs along the ceiling. At some places
Ryan and his friends could walk almost
upright with plenty of elbow room, at oth-
ers the passage narrowed almost to the
point where he thought they would have to
turn back. Occasionally the passage would
slope up or down, other times it would split
off into several branches whose endings
Ryan could only guess at. Sticking together,
Ryan and his friends chose what felt like the
straightest and widest path and continued
on through the seemingly endless cata-
combs.
The tunnels under campus were put in
place to carry steam from the original
steam plant to the other buildings for heat
during the winter. Eventually, the tunnels
wound up carrying other things, such as
cables for electricity.
Long refused to disclose the exact trail of
the tunnels, citing security concerns, but he
says that as the University grows, the tun-
nels will continue to grow. He did say that
they connect all of the major buildings on
campus, stretching under the sidewalks
and streets that students walk along every
day.
Because of their age, some of the tunnels
have become unsafe, prompting the Uni-
versity to start ripping them out and refur-
bishing them. The tract at 14
th
Street and
Jayhawk Boulevard has been the first to
receive attention.
Several of the supports within the tun-
nels are crumbling, and many of the pipes
are insulated with asbestos.
Its kind of a safety hazard, essentially,
says Katie Nichols, of Sabatini Architects,
who was in charge of the project.
She says the recently renovated section
had been the oldest portion of the tunnels,
and had been drilled through solid rock
instead of being a tube laid into a trench.
The main worry was that water would seep
in through the rock and flood the tunnel, a
problem that the new tunnel has been
designed to overcome.
The condition of the tunnels is the main rea-
son that people arent allowed in them,
says Lynn Bretz, director of University Rela-
tions. She says that they were not designed
for student traffic to begin with, and their
deterioration has made them even less safe
for trespassers.
Nichols does have a lasting impression
from the time she spent in the tunnel before
it was ripped out.
Theyre really creepy, she says.
For Ryan and his friends, the creepiness
of the tunnels was part of their appeal.
Every step across the floor had to be taken
with care, hunched over and mindful of the
scalding-hot steam pipes running along
the wall. Untold decades of grime covered
the floors, making them ever more treach-
erous.
The explorers trekked as far as the
Kansas Memorial Union and then Watson
Library before security guards who
seemed suspicious of their lookouts
prompted them to quit for the evening.
In the end, despite risking criminal
charges and finding nothing in the tunnels,
Ryan says that the experience was a worth-
while one. He says hell always remember
his trip to the tunnels, and that of all of the
pointless, illegal and dangerous things hes
done since coming to college, it remains his
favorite.

Not getting your daily dose of sex?
Ive fallen in love with my best friend. What can I do?
Jayce, senior
Jessi: They say friends first is the best pre-dating policy, and I bet
youre asking yourself, but why am I just now wanting her?!
Examine your situation. Maybe she just looks better now that she
started wearing makeup, or maybe youre just plain lonely. Just be
sure youre not making the common mistake of falling in love with
the idea of someone.
Chris: Picture a partially frozen pond. On your side of the pond is a
warm igloo. On the other side is another warm igloo, but inside is
this girl you love naked. And she has a giant box of gold. Is dying in
the freezing water worth the gold and potential sex in the warm
igloo? Will you be happy on your side with no gold and no girl? Or
should you just run across that ice and hope for the best? Im no pen-
guin but Id say you need to get across that pond.
Got a burning question? E-mail us at bitch@kansan.com.
Q. My TA and I have been flirting and recently decided to go out.
Do you think this is a good idea or not?
Julie, freshman
Jessi: Save yourself the trouble. Think of the negative consequences
of getting involved with anyone above you in the land of academia.
Why not just wait a semester and then, by all means, date your ex-TA.
Chris: Will he help you on papers? Will he sneak you answers to the
test? If he doesnt will you be a huge bitch? All things to consider. If its
worth the potential conflict, go for it, but if you dont see it lasting all
semester Id get out now. And drop the class, especially if its SOC 340.
That class is a bitch to get into!
Q. I recently got out of a relationship where I had sex regularly. Now
that Im dating again I forgot how annoying it is to have to take a girl
out many times before having sex. Any advice?
Pat, sophomore.
Jessi: So youve hit a sexual dry spell and now youre spending lone-
some, passionless nights buying dinner for girls who arent willing to
tickle your fancy. Boo hoo. One big decision we make in college is
deciding whether or not were ready for a committed relationship.
With that said, find people looking for the same thing you are: mean-
ingless, raw salami-hiding.
Chris: Get over it.

The real Got Milk? question
By Liz Beggs, Jayplay writer
Butterscotch nibbles on clover and
lush grass as her tail bats the seasons
remaining flies. Her udder hangs low and
full, with her teats reaching for the prairie
like fingers trying to grasp a wave.
Wearing mud boots and a fall jacket,
Sherie Noffke leads me closer to Butter-
scotch and the three other dairy cows that
make up her and her husbands small
herd. I follow carefully. Tip-toeing
between mud puddles and cow pies that
dot the ground, we hop over electric fence
after electric fence and faced the portion of
pasture where the cows graze. Butter-
scotch looks up at me with innocent eyes
covered in thick, cartoon-like eyelashes,
seemingly unruffled, and again turns her
head to the grass.
Butterscotch and her lady friends eat
grass and clover and roam a fresh pasture
every week. They receive no hormone
injections or antibiotics, and the grains
that supplement their diet are organic.
They live a stress-free life and fatten as
nature intended. In comparison to their
counterparts at large dairies that are con-
fined to cement-floored paddocks and
feedlots, the Noffkes foursome are lucky
cows. The way Noffke tells it, these lucky
cows make better milk.
Milk is one of the FDAs most controver-
sial foods. From organic to conventional,
raw to pasteurized and fattening to
healthy, the debate over milk is multifac-
eted. Scientists and nutritionists cannot
agree on the safety of growth hormones
used by many dairy farmers or the use of
pesticides on cattle feed. The increase in
attention to organic and pure foods has
reintroduced raw milk into the mix as a
potentially safe alternative to pasteurized
milk. The safe and healthy concept
received significant backing when a study
by the University of Tennessee was
released, casting doubt on the too-much-
dairy-makes-you-fat idea. It claimed
instead that dairy products aid in weight
reduction. Milk has proved to be one heck
of a dairy dilemma.
The good for us stuff
Practically from conception, we have
been bombarded with the five food
groupswhole grains, vegetables, fruits,
dairy products and meatand told that if
we ate a certain number of servings of
each group per day, we would provide our
bodies with the essential nutrients to stay
strong and fit. We need to drink milk by the
glass, add feta to our salads and consume
yogurt for snacks. We were to be a nation
of healthy teeth and strong bones with
beautiful actresses and dominant athletes
leading the way with their glued-on milk
mustaches.
This Got Milk? marketing ploy simply
advertised to the public what many of us
already knew: milk provides our body with
essential nutrients. With components
such as Vitamin D, calcium and Vitamin K,
its no secret that milk aids in the develop-
ment of strong bones. One serving of
reduced-fat cows milk contains almost 30
percent of the daily value of calcium and a
little more than 30 percent of the daily
value of phosphate. These two minerals
combine to form calcium phosphate,
which provides for both the strength and
structure of bones. A serving of milk also
provides almost 50 percent of the daily
value of Vitamin D, which keeps calcium in
the blood and available for bones to use.
With all of these vitamins and minerals,
milk looks like a super-food, so why is
there any debate at all? Nutrients in milk
were never the problem.
Shooting up cows
One of the problems with milks image is
the fear of hormones injected into dairy
cows. Many conventional dairy farms use
a cow growth hormone called rBGH
(recombinant bovine growth hormone),
known commercially as Posilac. Farmers
inject this hormone into the cows as often
as twice a month to extend the heavy milk
output period from eight to 10 weeks to16
to 20. This extended milking period allows
each cow to produce more milk, but Dr.
Samuel Epstein, a professor of environ-
mental medicine at the University of Illi-
nois Medical Center at Chicago, states in
his book Got (Genetically Engineered)
Milk? that the hormone also increases
the occurrence of mastitis in cows. Masti-
tis is the scientific name for inflammation
of breast tissue, which in cows can lead to
swollen, hard udders that when milked,
will excrete pus from the infected tissue
into the milk. Extensive mastitis cases
require large doses of antibiotics.
Epstein also says that rBGH increases a
cell-stimulating growth factor that is
genetically identical to humans and may
cause premature growth of breasts in chil-
dren and possibly breast cancer in adults.

According to a study conducted
by the Agricultural Marketing
Resource Center in 2001, 48,677
milk cows were certified organic
in the United States. They pro-
duced less than 1 percent of the
6.3 billion gallons of beverage
milk.
The growth factor to which Epstein is
referring is called insulin-like growth fac-
tor, or IGF-1. Both human and cows milk
contains some level of IGF-1 because milk
is designed for the young and IGF-1 helps
us in the growth process. Epstein says that
the higher levels of IGF-1 in the blood
could stimulate cancerous cells to grow.
Melissa Hooper, nutritionist for the Mid-
west Dairy Association, disagrees and
says that rBGH cant affect humans
because it is a bovine hormone that has
been deemed safe by the FDA.
Ideas similar to Epsteins are what keep
the Noffkes Pleasanton farm, Skyview, all
natural. The Noffkes do not use growth
hormones because Noffke has read about
the link between the hormones and can-
cers in the reproductive organs and breast
tissue. She also understands that science
currently cannot back up these claims.
Worries about hormones are not the
only reason farms like Noffkes go organic.
She compares eating and drinking in-
organic products to stepping on nails. She
says that occasionally stepping on a nail
wont hurt you too badly. Stepping on
nails every day is a different story.
Included in Noffkes nails are pesticides
and fertilizers. An organic farm can neither
feed its cows grain that has been treated
with pesticides nor medicate the cows
with antibiotics. The pasture where the
cows graze must be naturally fertilized,
and the water source must be controllable.
The final product is all natural and pure.
Straight from the udder?
Take the idea of natural and pure one
step further and youll run smack into one
of the newest milk crazesor should I say
oldest? Obviously, milk straight from the
cow was consumed before the whole idea
of pasteurization, but now some con-
sumers are choosing raw milk over the
pasteurized version because it is richer in
vitamins and minerals and therefore pos-
sibly more healthful.
The problem for these raw milk guzzlers
is that store-bought milk is sold in the pas-
teurized form. Pasteurization is a process
that began in the late 19
th
century after
people began to blame raw milk for tuber-
culosis. Louis Pasteur, a French chemist,
came up with a process in which the milk
was heated to between 145 and 150
degrees for half an hour and then chilled to
less than 55 degrees to kill germs and pre-
vent quick spoilage. The milk sold on the
shelves of grocery stores and gas stations
goes through a process called HTST (High
Temperature/ Short Time) pasteurization
in which the milk is heated to 161.5
degrees for at least 15 seconds.
The enzymes that pasteurization
removes aid in the digestion of milk, creat-
ing lactose intolerance Noffke says. She
says that if you were to feed pasteurized
milk to a calf, it would die of malnutrition
because of the missing nutrients that the
pasteurization process has destroyed.
The sale of raw milk is outlawed in many
states, but that doesnt decrease con-
sumer demand. Noffke says that she is up
to her eyeballs in raw milk customers, but
in Kansas, dairies that sell raw milk can
only sell it on the farm. They are not
allowed to transport the merchandise, and
they cannot advertise beyond the farm.
Drive-by customers only see a small,
white sign lettered in black to alert them
that Skyview sells milk.
The skinny on fat
Diet fads change from clinical study to
clinical study. Years ago, dairy products
were on the strict dieters do not touch
list, but recent studies claim that calcium-
rich dairy products actually aid in weight
reduction. Hooper says that Dr. Michael
Zemel, professor of nutrition at the Uni-
versity of Tennessee, discovered this cor-
relation almost 14 years ago. He noticed
that African-American men who con-
sumed at least two servings of whole-fat
dairy a day lost an average of 11 pounds
during his yearlong study. These men did
not reduce their calorie intake.
This led to Zemels more current
research published in Obesity Research
indicating that people on a reduced-calo-
rie diet who eat three to four servings of
dairy a day on a reduced-calorie diet lose
weight in their abdominal region. In his
study he divided the subjects into three
categories: high dairy/high calcium, high
calcium and low calcium. Zemels study
found that subjects eating the high-dairy
diet lost 70 percent more body weight and
64 percent more body fat than those indi-
viduals on the low-calcium diet.
Hooper says calcium plays a role in
weight maintenance and reduced medical
costs and that people can get their biggest
source of calcium from dairy. The nutri-
ents in milk are undeniable because dairy
products are naturally nutrient rich.
The controversy lies in hormone-injec-
tions and weight loss.
Back on the farm
Whether everything Noffke says is
based on scientific fact, the attitude at
Skyview Farm is hard to resist. Lazy, well-
fed cows walk aimlessly about the pas-
ture. They are unstressed, free and
healthy.
While heating curds and whey to make
mozzarella cheese, Noffke opens her
refrigerator and pulls out a white plate dis-
playing pure butter the color of an egg
yolk. She smiles and tells me that when
cows are grass-fed, their butter turns
bright yellow. She puts back the plate after
I rejects her offer of a taste. Instead, she
reaches for the raw milk and pours me a
small glass. I feel nervous because of all
the germs and bacteria Ive read about that
make their home in the liquid, but I take a
sip and realize what Ive been missing. It
tastes fresh, cold and thick. Maybe its the
idea of the cows freedom that does a sub-
conscious dance on my tongue, but it
tastes so much better than store-bought
milk. I swirl it around, coating the glass like
a good wine, and swallow the rest of the
sample. Noffke looks at me, eagerly await-
ing my reaction. It is good, I say, while I
secretly pray that I would not become vio-
lently ill.
Days later, Im fine and craving a glass of
raw milk.
Sitting across from Scott
McIntire, there is no question
that he is hip-hop through and
through. With his white and
black pin-stripe G-Unit jump-
suit, white G-Unit baseball cap,
silver chains, diamond earrings,
diamond watch and diamond
bracelet, he has the whole pack-
age.
Around Lawrence, this 23-
year-old is known by another
name, DJ Scottie Mac. With
dreams much bigger than this
towns confinements, his suc-
cess to date has made these
dreams seem a reality.
Born in Mesa, Ariz., on Sept.
15, 1981, McIntire moved to
Osawatomie when he was 12
years old. I went from a town of
a couple million to a town of
about 5,500, he says. Graduat-
ing from Osawatomie High
School as valedictorian helped
him earn an academic scholar-
ship to the University of Kansas as a pre-
med student. Halfway through his sopho-
more year, he realized he was unhappy
and changed his major to business. Still,
something was missing.
To fill this void, he embraced his passion
for music. McIntire threw parties for his
friends and always provided the music.
People started paying me to come to
their parties and play the music for them,
he says.
Before he came to college, he described
himself as a normal small-town guy who
listened to rock. That changed with the
release of Eminems second CD. The
Marshall Mathers LPcame out, and I fell in
love with hip-hop music, he says. I
could relate to his lyrics, and his music
became my remedy.
Seeing Eminems success has motivated
Scottie Mac to stay in the game. He is just
a white man coming up in a black mans
industry, McIntire says. Hes my inspira-
tion.
With a newfound love for hip-hop and an
amateur DJ career kicking off, McIntire
signed with Blue Moon Entertainment to
start his DJ career right. He first appeared
at Johnnys Tavern in Lawrence in August
2003. After that, he was on a roll, booking
gigs and drawing big crowds at nearly
every bar and club in Lawrence. I go to
where DJ Scottie Mac is because I know
there will always be a crowd and I know
that he will always play good music to
keep the crowd there, says Cherry Lip-
pold, Independence senior.
Things were going well, but McIntire still
wasnt satisfied. He wanted more.
He left Blue Moon Entertainment to sign
with 151 Entertainment in December
2003. Under Ronald Ruiz, owner of 151
Entertainment, McIntire learned what he
needed to know to become a great DJ.
Ruiz had the connections and the equip-
ment that McIntire needed to set it off. I
picked Scott up for a lot of reasons, Ruiz
says. Mainly his talent for music. He has
the ability to pick out songs that are good
before they are hits and he has great social
skills. Those qualities make him a great
DJ. In January 2004, DJ Scottie Mac and
151 Entertainment started opening for dif-
ferent artists in the Lawrence and Kansas
City area. This was just the beginning.
During spring break 2004, McIntire
opened for Juvenile at a club in Austin,
Texas. In summer 2004, he did a party for
T.J. Ford, Milwaukee Buck point guard and
former University of Texas player, also in
Austin. In November 2004, he traveled to
several Kansas City schools with Ja Kwon
for his Rock the Vote tour. Other big
shows include opening for Tech N9ne and
The Executioners. He was also the DJ for
the Monster Bash Halloween Party of
Kansas City radio station Hot 103 Jamz.
His success just keeps rising. Future
shows include opening for artists such as
the Ying Yang Twins, Guerilla Black,
Fabolous and T.I. In April, DJ Scottie Mac
is opening for Nelly at a bone marrow
drive. On Jan. 1, 2005, he started his own
Web site and production company, DTA
Records. Visitors to the site will have the
ability to send him audio, purchase and
download his mixes, check his calendar
and book him online.
McIntire knows what he wants and is tak-
ing the steps to get there. His goal is to
own his own record label and promote his
own artists. I want to be the white Russell
Simmonsstay behind the scenes and
make all the money, he says. He has no
aspirations to continue working in the DJ
business. He says hes just using it as a
gateway to success.

Entertainment at Johnnys on Wednesday

Maybe so, but dont tell the Irish

which any
I r i s h ma n

mon cold:
the Hot
Toddy. The
Hot Toddy
was originally an Asian creation
communities in Southeast Asia
made a fermented liquor out of the
sweet sap of several tropical Asian
palm trees, especially palmyra,
about 150 years ago. With world
trade routes opening up around the
turn of the 20
th
century, palmyra
sap reached Ireland. In no time at
all, the Irish were welcoming this
drink into pubs across their coun-
try, modifying the contents along
the way. Now, there are more than
two-dozen varieties of this curious
cocktailamong them the Christ-
mas Toddy, the Hot Brandy Toddy,
the Hot Rum Toddy and the Gal-
liano Toddyand the list keeps
growing. So, next time you visit
your favorite pub, order a Hot
Toddy of your liking and put it down
for good health (sort of)!
Pour whiskey and tea into a tall
Collins glass 3/4 full. Add sugar and
boiling water. Mix in honey and

In between bites of my less-than-stellar turkey club I look up to read a banner
hung on one of the walls that states Beware of the Dog. I secretly think it
should say Beware of the mediocre food. Located at the former site of
Bubbas Cuz you just never know Bar, Im at least glad to see that the clientele
isnt the grisled, Nascar-loving, NRA card-toting types that Bubbas used to
attract. Since the Phoggy Dogs birth on October 13, 2004, co-owner and KU

phere. So far, this seems to be working, though a few of the hardcore Bubbas
patrons lurk near the Dogs bar. The atmosphere is decidedly sporty and the lay-
out of the bar is reminiscent of a scaled-down Its Brothers. Booze hounds from
all over Lawrence flock to the Dog on Thursday, Friday, Saturday and most
recently Wednesday nights when $3 domestic beer pitchers are up for grabs.
Considering Fatsos is no longer offering $1 anythings on Wednesday nights,
Williams is hoping the Dog will be the new Wednesday-night watering-hole.
Not really my kind of place but I might have to give the Dog another try.

professor opens a door to the dark

curator played by Tara Reid, he uses
ancient artifacts to uncover the mys-
tery. From the advertising, I thought
this was a horror film, but it turned
out to be another shallow action
movie.
I have yet to see a good film made
from a video game. The characters
are uninteresting and annoying,
especially Tara Reids character who
is still wandering around like shes in
one of the American Pie movies.
Slater is not much betterwhat is he
doing? He used to make good films.
The only semi-decent performance
came from Stephen Dorff as com-
mander Burke, but even he couldnt
save the film. Even the action
sequences seem unoriginal, most
looking like bad rip-offs of Aliens and
Indiana Jones. By the last sequence,
the film has become tiresome as we
focus on characters we dont know or
care about.
I felt very much in the dark for most
of the film, but not alonethere were
five other people in the cinema,
although one of them left before the
end. Maybe fans of the game will pick
up on more than I did.

Hide and Seek
(1/2)
R, 105 minutes, Southwinds 12.
Its often hard to be enthusiastic
about horror films of late, unless
theyre Japanese or Japanese
remakes. However, Hide and Seek is
an exceptionan intelligent horror
that does not rely on special effects or
flashy set pieces to get the audiences
hearts racing.
David Callaway (Robert DeNiro) not
only has to deal with his wifes death
but also his daughter Emilys (Dakota
Fanning) imaginary friend, Charlie.
Try as he might, Charlie will not go
away. With strange things happen-
ing, it turns out Charlie is perhaps
more real that David suspects, and
his plans are more sinister.
The film works because it uses
classic techniques to instill fear
such as not knowing what lies
behind closed doors, and close-ups
of the characters so that we are
unable to see what is coming up
behind them. Like the best horror
movies, the filmmaking is quiet and
observing rather than being stylized
and fast-paced. What often makes a
horror film scary is not knowing
what is going to happen in certain
situations, and in this respect the
film delivers fully. It is the first time I
have heard people scream in the cin-
ema. And not just once, two or three
times.
The performances add much to the
filmI dont know who is better,
DeNiro or Fanning. Each played their
part brilliantly. Fannings facial
expressions leave you both mesmer-
ized and shocked at the same time.
Unpredictable and full of tension,
perhaps the only flaw is that the last
10 minutes are needless. They
slightly diminish the overall effect of
the film, but as a whole it still stands
as the years best horror movie.

skyline. Here, he has carved out a safe
routine, visiting a friendly waitress
(Aitana Snchez-Gijn) at the airport caf,
where he always orders the same coffee
and pie, and paying for the services of a
beautiful prostitute (Jennifer Jason
Leigh).
Then Trevor meets Ivan (John Sharian),
a burly, bald coworker with toes grafted
onto one of his hands. Soon his fellow
machinists are whispering conspiratori-
ally about him, and someone begins past-
ing hangmans notes with ominous miss-
ing letters on his fridge clues that may
unlock the secret surrounding Trevors
sleepless nights.
Bale, who was so indelible as the serial
killer Patrick Bateman in American
Psycho, performs an astonishing disap-
pearing act. His commitment to his craft is
humbling an even a little frightening.
Anderson suffuses the movie with
atmosphere and dread. Directing a script
by Scott Kosar, Hollywoods go-to guy for
horror remakes (The Texas Chainsaw
Massacre, The Amityville Horror), the
filmmaker works with metallic colors and
deep shadows, audaciously visualizing
Trevors gloomy mindscape.
While The Machinists puzzle pieces add
up to less than they should, they do fit per-
fectly.
Stephen Shupe
By Stephen Shupe, Jayplay senior writer
Named one of the 10 Leading New Inde-
pendent Directors to Watch by Variety
magazine in 1997, Brad Anderson has
directed five feature films, including the
romantic comedy Next Stop Wonderland
and the horror flick Session 9. His latest,
The Machinist, opens in Lawrence tomor-
row at Liberty Hall, 644 Massachusetts St.
Shot in Barcelona for $5 million, The
Machinist won the top prize at the Neucha-
tel International Fantasy Film Festival in
Switzerland.
Q. Christian Bale lost 60 pounds to
play the role of Trevor Reznik, the
insomniac hero of The Machinist.
Were you ever worried about his
health?
A. A lot of people ask that, but Christian
actually enjoyed the process. He lost more
weight than he intended to he planned
on losing 20 pounds. He ended up losing
so much that he said it was almost
euphoric, where he was in this kind of Zen-
like state. We didnt actually have a doctor
on the set, and we probably should have.
Q. Bale is starring in Batman Begins
this summer. Did your shooting
schedule conflict at all?
A. He got the role of Batman after we
wrapped. It worked out because he came
back three or four months later to shoot
the flashback scene, and hed bulked up
for Batman. So it kind of worked to our
advantage.
Q. The Machinist has been com-
pared to Fight Club. Do you worry
about similarities to other films when
youre directing?
A. Theres a similarity to Fight Club, but
the intention with this film was to do
something more character-driven than a
big thriller. I was thinking more about
Alfred Hitchock, Roman Polanski or Stan-
ley Kubrick, filmmakers who try to create a
real sense of dread and paranoia in the
audience.
Q. In what genre would you place The
Machinist?
A. Classifying it as a horror film is decep-
tive, because people will think of Night-
mare on Elm Street. Its more of a study of
one mans horrific journey. I would call it a
psychological mystery.
I like horror movies, but Im more inter-
ested in the psychological nature of hor-
ror. The best horror movies deal with the
monster inside, rather than some external
threat. Thats much more scary than a
chain-saw wielding maniac, because you
cant defeat your inner demons.
Q. The film has a kind of timeless,
placeless quality. Do you agree?
A. The idea of it being timeless or place-
less is something I wanted. What you get is
this kind of weird, quasi-American reality. I
think thats appropriate to a story about a
guy who doesnt really know where he
exists. I wanted the audience to ask,
Whos the sleepless, emaciated killer in
my town? Everyone has one.

Asylum Street
Spankers
Mercurial
Asylum Street
Spankers are a band from
Austin, Texas who play an
odd blend of old time jazz,
bluegrass, big band,
country, folk and proba-
bly some other kind of
music. The band consists
of seven members who
play instruments ranging
from oboe, to banjo, to violin; the major
brains behind the band being Christina
Marrs and Wammo.
The band recently released their sixth
album Mercurial. Most of the bands suc-
cess and reputation comes from their rau-
cous and eclectic live shows. The bands
repertoire consists mostly of cover songs
of classic blues and jazz greats like Bessie
Smith (Sugar in my Bowl) and Fats Waller
(Ita Sin to Tell a Lie). Surprisingly enough
they dont just cover classic blues and
jazz. The album also contains covers of
Black Flags TV Party and even more sur-
prising are their swing ren-
dition of Paul Revere by the
Beastie Boys and even a
cover of The B-52s Dance
this Mess around. This
gives the band a little bit
more accessibility to the
younger generations; even
though Im pretty sure that
everyone liked the original
versions just fine.
The band definitely is a
strange mixture of styles
and influences that plays a strange mix-
ture of songs. However, the band doesnt
seem to have very much original mate-
rial, theyre a cover band that is weird
enough to have the reputation that they
do being just that. If this sort of thing is
your bag; you should definitely check it
out, but most would find it weird and
annoying.

The Snake The Cross
The Crown
Mander Salis
Somewhere between the sonic land-
scapes of Dark Side of the Moon and the
guitar-heroics of Bends-era
Radiohead lies Mander
Salis, the ambitious debut
album by the arcane and
obliquely named The Snake
The Cross The Crown. At
times invigorating and at
others blatantly derivative,
TSTCTC has latched on to
the side-paneling of the
ever-ascending Radiohead
rocket along with other first-
generation acolytes Muse and Clinic.
The majority of Mander Salis is Bends
pastiche. TSTCTC parrots the albums
relentless guitar bombardment. An Hon-
est Misappropriation of Funds and A
Gathering of Shades could have been
Bends b-sides, though laced with the jum-
bled electronica of future Radiohead
releases. Though their primary influence
is obvious on these tracks, TSTCTC emu-
lates its heroes with songs worthy of
comparison.
Mander Salis greatest appeal lies in its
deviations. On the Threshold of Eter-
nity and the aptly titled A Brief Intermis-
sion are exactly what the latter implies.
Both are acoustic respites with from the
other, more empowered
tracks. On the Threshold of
Eternity even flirts with
country-twang on the lead
as an organ drones in the
shadows.
The albums most note-
worthy track however, is
Echolalia, a portentous
nine-minute, multi-part
prog-rock voyage that fore-
casts the future of the band.
Mander Salis, though not wholly original,
is an introduction to a band that could do
great things if they just ignore Thom Yorke
& Co. for a few minutes. Recommended
for fans of Muses Absolution.

Olivia The Band
Olivia The Band features four child-
hood friends who were inspired to create
music of their own upon returning to their
Oahu homes from a concert. After high
school Olivia The Band relocated to San
Diego to pursue their pop/punk music
careers. Sound generic? It is, along with
the sound of their music.
The fact that their sound is generic to
their genre of music does not mean that
they are not good musicians or singers.
The music and lyrics are well written and
harmonize very well resulting in a smooth
flowing tracks. However, like many bands
that feature just one member on vocals
many of the tracks begin to sound very
similar by the end of the CD.
Their first single, Shut it Out is one of
the most up-tempo songs on the album
yet its certainly not one of the better
songs. Its apparent that the band chose
to conform to their genre by releasing the
most pop-sounding track rather than one
of the better more lyrical songs on the
album.
Olivia The Band has talent and poten-
tial thats reflected in their debut album.
Yet to go beyond where they are now they
need to set themselves apart from other
bands, which they failed to do in this
album.

Buried Inside
Chronoclast
Straight out of Ottawa, Canada, Buried
Inside throws down with some ridiculous
sludge metal mayhem on their third full-
length effort, Chronoclast. Produced by
Matt Bayles (The Blood Brothers, Isis,
These Arms Are Snakes), the album was
originally written to be a single 40-minute
onslaught, but after rethinking this con-
cept the band decided that the world was-
nt quite ready. Three years later the evil is
finally unveiled on 10 smoothly inter-
woven tracks. The slaying guitar riffs are
relentless and dark enough to make dudes
who wear capes cast spells on each other;
balanced out by some disgusting groove-
oriented crunches hard and fast enough
so the kids with backpacks can practice
their floor-punching. If youre sick of the
same old metal formula, check out the
song Time as Imperialism which has
stringed-orchestra interludes that give off
a bizarre Middle-Age warrior feel that is
crunked as hell and sure to get the party
started.
Front man Andrew Tweedys vocals
sound like a mother Raptor who just
caught somebody stealing her eggs and is
ready to ravage every last creature on
earth. Its time to make the earth shake
and dig up some graves with Buried
Inside as they start the year off right for the
rest of us suckers who are just begging to
be owned. These dudes are pissed off,
and the fury ebbs and flows throughout,
giving you just enough time to catch your
breath before the next storm erupts and
they light the shit on fire again.
Four words. Dont fuck with Canada.
Recommended for fans of: Isis, Napalm
Death and Opeth.

Ghost In the Shell:
Stand Alone Complex
Playstation 2
All right! Another game based on an
anime series! The anime/game crossover
needs a break before any more attempts
are made. Ghost In the Shell: Stand Alone
Complex is based on the series of the
same name, which is based on the movie,
Ghost in the Shell. As its name implies, the
game is stand alone, or a completely dif-
ferent entity and separate from the
movie/show. The game is set in the future
where, as they say, being human has
come down to a science. A majority of the
people are heavily augmented with cyber-
netic brains and bodies. They are still con-
sidered human, however, because their
brains contain a
ghost, which
basically means
they arent con-
trolled by AI.
The game lets
you play as two of
the main charac-
ters from the show:
Bateau and
Kusanagi, who is
referred to as sim-
ply The Major. Its not possible to
choose which you play; its predetermined
for the mission. The game is convoluted
and its difficult to figure out why youre
even there in the first place. For the most
part missions will consist of finding out
how not to die by precariously-placed
snipers with insane shooting ability. If
youre out in the open for more than a
handful of sec-
onds, consider
yourself dead.
Other than this,
you will spend your
time wading
through enemies
trying to find a but-
ton to push to make
your way to the
next level.
The Major and
Bateau control similarly and have no real
differences other than physical combat
skills. You can carry two weapons at a time
and switch with weapons that enemies
drop after you kill them. These weapons
are standard fare, ranging from shotguns
to assault and sniper rifles. Hand-to-hand
combat consists of pressing the R2 button
as fast as you can to perform the same
combo over and over again, always finish-
ing with a slo-mo kick to the face. The com-
bat is just as tedious as the missions and
lacks any real depth. The story is confus-
ing and not well conveyed to the player. As
I played, people asked me what I was sup-
posed to be doing, and I replied to all with
the same answer: I have no frickin idea.
I would like to be able to recommend this
to those who enjoy the show, but they
would just be disappointed as would most
anybody else. The game can be entertain-
ing for awhile, but just doesnt deliver the
goods.

Mercenaries:
Playground of
Destruction
Xbox or PS2
I learned so much from Mercenaries,
mindlessly blowing things up is fun, but I
knew that. Thats why I rented this game.
Calling in an air strike just to see a building
become a pile of dust feels terrific, but
beyond the destruction is a solid game.
In the game you are a mercenary in the
border between North and South Korea.
You accept contracts from different fac-
tionsAmericans, South Koreans, Chi-
nese and the Russian Mafia and in
return for your services you will receive
payment and intelligence. The intel helps
you locate and capture or kill key mem-
bers of the North Korean dictatorship gov-
ernment. Locating your target means you
can capture and have them airlifted for
interrogation or kill them. Killing them
means you only receive half the bounty
and its not as rewarding.
One thing I learned the hard way is that
in Korea bushes are the natural enemy of
tanks. A tank can destroy any building or
vehicle but running into a bush or a tree
can flip it. The ally Al could have used
some work. Your allies in Mercenaries
make your allies in Halo 2 look like Steven
Seagal.
Although this game had a couple flaws,
it was worth it. Hijacking a tank in the mid-
dle of a firefight and using it to destroy
everything never gets tired. I played for
about 20 hours and had only captured 23
of the 52 targets and had fun with every
capture. If you like Grand Theft Auto or
war games you should definitely accept
this contract.

Star Wars: Knights of
the Old Republic 2:
The Sith Lords
Xbox
The Force has stayed strong with the
Xbox. The critically acclaimed role-play-
ing game, RPG, has come back for another
epic chapter in the
story that takes
place long ago in a
galaxy far, far away.
Star Wars: Knights
of the Old Republic
2: The Sith Lords
comes with more
features and even
more worlds to
explore.
Five years after
the events of
KOTOR 1, all of the Jedi have been wiped
out in the Jedi Civil War with Malak. The
Jedi Order is no more. You, an exiled Jedi,
are the only one who hasnt chosen which
path to take. You must do your best to try
to regain your connection to the Force and
find out what has happened.
You still have the free will to decide
which side to take; the Light Side or the
Dark Side. With each choice is presented
to you, you decide what do say to the peo-
ple and depending on their reactions,
decide what type of person you will
become. As you travel to more planets,
you will meet more people who will join
you on your journey. One major feature
the game boasted this time was that your
decisions will also affect your teams
alliance with you. In order to change their
alliance, you must gain influence with
them. You do this by talking to them and
saying things they way you think they
want to hear. Some characters like you to
be sympathetic, while others would prefer
you to use more brute force to solve mat-
ters. For example, one character in a situ-
ation would like it if you would use a
grenade to cleanse the filth from a can-
tina. Deciding what to do in this situation
can make you gain or lose influence.
Choices like this
also affect your
Light and Dark
alignment as well.
You also have
the power to make
your non-Jedi
party members
Jedi as well. This
takes serious con-
versations with
your party mem-
bers. The one char-
acter I turned into a Jedi took 15 minutes of
conversation for him to start his training.
The gameplay is still the same as the
first one. The combat is based on a d20
system, where dice rolls are used to calcu-
late damage and effects to enemies (no
real dice are seen).
KOTOR 2 is a solid RPG. It has great
character development, great storyline
and tons of things to uncover. This game
could give Halo 2 a run for its money in the
realm of Xbox. I actually stopped playing
the first Halo and picked up the first
KOTOR.

When I was in kindergarten, I had it
made. We all did. Life was simple: go to
school, goof around with friends, drink
milk, draw a picture, read a book, take a
nap, punch the boys and giggle, go home,
eat cheese and crackers and watch Nick-
elodeon.
Its a stage of life were all expected to
outgrow. When I was in high school, I
wanted to. I couldnt wait to grow up, get a
job and go to work every day, because I
thought I was way too mature for that high
school crap. But somewhere between
then and my last semester of college, Ive
noticed an unmistakable regression in my
personality. Ive found that Im back to
doing all the same silly things I did when I
was 5 years old. I still giggle and whine and
sit in front of the TV and watch cartoons. I
still live for naps and punch boys when I
have a crush on them. The only difference
now is that Im writing two papers, stress-
ing about work and trying to balance my
checkbook all at the same time. (Well, that,
and Ive gone global with my snacking
preferences my sophisticated tastes lead
me in the direction of chips and salsa). My
heart is still in kindergarten while my head
is forcing me to grow up and face the real
world.
Simple activities challenge me because
I have the mentality of a child. Like when I
go downtown: Do I want to have a beer, or
do I want an ice cream cone with rainbow
sprinkles? Most of the time, I choose ice
cream. Ive always been a sugar addict.
When I was little, I used to dramatically
throw myself against the freezer door
because I so desperately needed some ice
cream. To this day, I need ice cream to sur-
vive. Ill throw my hand on my forehead,
palm facing out, as if I am short of breath,
and melodramatically gasp ice cream
cone. And if I dont get one, you can bet
that Ill pout and whine and stomp my feet
because in my bratty, schoolgirl mind,
thatll fix it.
When Im cranky, I can find escape in my
TV. Eighty percent of my daily television
consumption is made up of cartoons. Sure
I spend the other 20 percent educating
myself or watching something not totally
mindless, but cartoon time is my time.
Most cartoons are only 15 minutes long,
so its a double bonus that rewards my
short attention span and my need to be
entertained. If I had a dime for every time I
got a blank stare and a youre 21 years
old, Meredith, Id have at least enough
money to buy a whole lot of gummy
worms. So what if I have the entire Aqua
Teen Hunger Force library on DVD? I
embrace my ability to escape life by
watching talking meatballs. Isnt that what
TVs were invented for anyway?
I guess I can thank my parents for this,
because theyre the same way. My mom,
who always let me lick the bowl when she
made a cake and kept the house stocked
with plenty of chocolate, is responsible for
my vicious sweet tooth. My dad is a full-
grown man who does bizarre dances in
parking lots for no reason and thinks his
poop jokes are the funniest thing since
comedy was invented. And I laugh, too.
Neither of us can grow up. But whos to say
we have to? The public tends to view
adults with childlike qualities as creepy
(think Michael Jackson), but I want to
prove that its perfectly OK to be young at
heart. Its important to maintain a sense of
wonder and act childish sometimes, even
if only as a simple reminder that life does-
nt always have to be as complicated as
adulthood makes it. Kids are cool because
they act completely on feeling, and while
that can get me in trouble, it endears me to
people. I may dance around and sing silly
songs and giggle uncontrollably some-
times, but I live a responsible adult life and
I get things done. Of course, the whole
time, Im secretly dreaming of overdosing
on sugar and soda and sleeping off the
high. And maybe when I wake up, Ill make
myself a big bowl of ice cream and turn on
the Cartoon Network.
