I figure our goal should be to make people think, at least enough to make an INFORMED decision, not the one the Dims. and Libs. TELL them to make. So if you made them think, which evidently you did, your excursion was a success! Do they know who did the original chalking?

I think we're pretty similiar in the "misbehaving" department; I skipped track practice once in 10th grade, and snuck wine coolers into my dorm room once or twice (it was a very conservative Lutheran college and alcohol was definitely prohibited, even if you were old enough to drink, which I was at the time). And that's the extent of my confession . . . :-) Oh wait--I skipped my 8AM class once, but the college was small enough that when I saw the prof. between afternoon classes he asked if I was feeling better, and I felt so guilty I never skipped again . . . (hope I didn't give you any "wild" ideas!) :-)

I think most people figured out it was me. I had several people ask me and I didn't see any reason to lie. It was perfectly "legal" as far as the college is concerned. Most people know that I wear my cowboy Bush button every day and carry around my Top 10 reasons to re-elect Bush tote bag plus I write the same kind of things all over my notebooks that I wrote on the sidewalk. So it was fairly obvious.

Alcohol is prohibited on our campus too, even if you're 21 or older. (I won't be 21 until August.) The last time I had alcohol was the millenium New Year's Eve. My best friend and I each had a glass of champagne. (I, of course, had to call my mom first and get permission.) As far as skipping classes, I don't do that because I have such a horrible immune system that I'm guaranteed to get sick at least three times per semester. And that's not including my consistent health problems like allergies and migraines. So needless to say, I don't actually "skip" classes but I do miss them.
