Standing in front of Gaston Hall on Saturday, it seemed that Georgetown students were taking advantage of Georgetown’s Arts Gala in order to punish their parents for all of those days of humiliating comments shouted from the carpool line.

Everybody don’t do the Bartman

VOICES BY DAVE STROUP I write this as the Cubs are down by three to the Marlins in game seven of the National League Championship Series. As you read this, you will know how the game came out. However, I am not watching the game. Instead, I am here writing about the tragedy of game six.

What a flag

It’s ugly. In fact, some even consider it hideous. And, no, I’m not talking about Dennis Kucinich. I’m talking about the newly proposed flag for the District.

The new design is identical to the current flag-a white background with a row of red stars above two red bars-but now with the slogan “No Taxation Without Representation” written in white text across the two red bars.
