     The Well is a Wee Bit Dry this 
     
     Week... 
     
    
   
   
    
       
     
    
   
   
    
     Well, it’s been one of those weeks, folks. Papers coming due. Presentations needing 
     
     to be written. Time’s just been going too fast, and here it is like clockwork, I’m up against the 
     
     dreaded deadline again. Unfortunately, this pile of academia has prevented me from finding 
     
     something to rant about in detail (honestly - I’ ve been too busy this week to get really worked 
     
     up about anything!). But of course, the show must go on, so for better or worse, I present you 
     
     with some fast food-style rants - a list of small, easily digested and completely unfilling 
     
     ponderables I’ve had over the past little while: 
     
    

    
     The gazebo’s been in its new home behind the Cass building for abouta week anda half 
     
     now, and I’ve seen no one there. I’m wondering if anyone’s noticed it. It probably got more 
     
     use in its old home (at least until the vice squad showed up). 
     
    

    
     Remember a few months back when that psychiatrist did a profile on Lucien Bouchard 
     
     and found him tobe opportunistic and narcissistic? I’m justcurious why ittooka shrink to figure 
     
     that out - do you really have to be told this by a professional? 
     
    

    
     Anybody know what happened to those circular “Bruce Maclssac for Mayor” signs that 
     
     used to be all over Charlottetown? If you know, tell me where I can find some - | was planning 
     
     to gather ‘em up, swipe a manhole cover and play super-pogs with ‘em. 
     
    

    
     Answer me this: if mineral oil is made from minerals, and vegetable oil is made from 
     
    
   
   
    
     vegetables, what’s baby oil made of? : : 
     
     Could someone tell me the appeal of internet chat lines? Seems like a contest of whocan 
     
    
   
   
    
     be a bigger phony than the next guy. 
     
    

    
     Why is the maple leaf regarded as a national symbol when maple trees don’t grow west 
     
     of Ontario? ite 
     
    

    
     Did UPEI have a massive student population at one time, requiring the use of any 
     
     available space as classrooms? How else can you explain the presence of blackboards in the 
     
     library’s washrooms? Either that or it was an easier way to deal with graffiti. 
     
    

    
     Anyone think that the campus daycare could’ ve been put in a worse place than Marian 
     
     Hall? It’s a no-win situation for either side. = 
     
    

    
     I never heard of a 24-hour supermarket until I came to the Maritimes. What sort of 
     
     clientele would such a place attract at 3:00 AM? : 
     
    

    
     Okay, I’ve tortured you enough. Rant to you again next week.
