Today we went to the Tower of London. It was pretty cool to see where all the prisoners had been held. We also saw the Tower Bridge. I didn’t see the London Eye (it’s near there, right?), but it doesn’t much matter since it’s closed due to the heat. We also went to Madame Tussaud’s…

Oh my god, it’s so hot in London right now! Where’s the fog? Where’s the rain? Where are the temperatures that don’t leave everyone soaking wet from their own sweat? Anyway, London is amazing! Walking around is, at times, overwhelming, but the diversity of the city just blows me away. And I can’t seem to…

I’ll be in England until the 25th. If I get a chance to blog, I will, but don’t hold out too much hope. See you later this month!

The Cornell Daily Sun reports in this article that “after a meeting with representatives from Cornell University Police Department, the Judicial Administrator’s office, Environmental Health and Safety and the Risk Management office,” Cornell informed the the student…

I have a huge problem with one of those MSN ads that feature the big, stupid butterfly. The one I’m talking about is the one where the mom and her two children are walking down the street and the butterfly is running ahead and “protecting” the children. In case you haven’t seen it, here’s a…

Kris told me about a campaign that I really like. It’s the ‘I am not America” campaign. Everyone always says, “America did this, America did that,” then there’s hostility toward American citizens.
