\"Dawson's Creek" might not be what a television critic would call "quality." Maybe it doesn't have "good ratings" or "intelligent plot lines." So "Dawson's Creek" is "sappy" and "unrealistic." Wait, scratch that, I think I've been watching too many of those Chris Farley news commentaries on the "SNL: Best of Chris Farley" tape my friend recently gave me for my birthday. Back to the real review.
What's the most important thing to know before you go to Eroticon? If you go, dress well, dress up, dress like you've never dressed before. "I tell people to go an extra step.

As a little kid I had an "A-Team" three-wheeler that I wore into the ground, racing around the block, terrorizing kids while singing the "A-Team" theme song. Thursday I finally had the chance to meet the man who once ran through a brick wall on screen.
Although he chooses to remain anonymous, he still shared his story Wednesday night, at a lecture called "Out in Greek Life." He joined a fraternity for brotherhood and leadership. He made many new friends, but became depressed his junior year. He felt he was living a lie. He was gay.
Led by the IU Student Association, students are now one step closer to buying tax-free textbooks for their college courses.

I'm proud to say it because it means I've given my palate nice experiences, and it has broadened my horizons. But the other night I went to a small restaurant with cuisine I'd never eaten before. I hadn't even heard of it. I had no real idea of what to expect.
