Please stay Cause our team really needs you And please play Or else our front court won’t shine, no

I know that the choice isn’t simple And I know that the season’s been long But it’s clear that you’re thinking of leaving And that decision would be very

If you’re happy and you know it

My senior year of high school I played the lead role in our spring musical, You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown. I’ll be the first to admit that it was one of my highest moments of dorkdom, but somehow I recovered to become the hip, suave person that I am now.

Hoyas don’t fear the turtle, win 8-4

The Georgetown baseball team left a cold and rainy Shipley Field at the University of Maryland on Tuesday with a feeling that had been lost since March 19: the thrill of victory. The Hoyas (7-20, 1-11 Big East) ended an eleven-game slide with an impressive 8-4 victory over the Terrapins behind the stellar pitching performance of senior Pat Salvitti and sophomore catcher Andrew Cleary’s power hitting display.

Pioneering, sans covered wagons

“There are two types of people in this world: those who love Neil Diamond and those who don’t. I don’t.”

Jenny Manno (CAS ‘03) is quoting What About Bob? and talking about her run in backstage with the pop songwriter one night two summers ago.

Poker Playa

“Listen, here’s the thing.? If you can’t spot the sucker in your first half hour at the table, you are the sucker.”

Poker, a game that separates the men from the boys. I got hooked on it sophomore year at Georgetown. With my regular crew of six or seven friends, we all matured as players during those weekly six- to 10-hour marathon sessions in Village B.

Scientology and you, minus your money and soul

Sick of the same old boring God? Communion wafers just not as tasty as they used to be? Tired of having to mutilate your genitals? Maybe it’s time for a new religion. Or maybe it’s time to give Scientology a try. With the Founding Church of Scientology located in Dupont Circle, finding an illogical credo to blindly adhere to is as easy as ceasing to question your better judgement.

Sleep with the Voice

Hi, we’re the Voice. You know, a lot of people think that once you get your own campuswide newsmagazine it’s really easy to get lucky. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, the only one of us who’s getting any cookie at all is Dave Stroup, and that’s just ’’cause he’s a well-hung stud.
