Is there any work by this "writer" that isn't lame?
Not really. The rag has been scraping the bottoms of the University's talent pool, to be honest. I'd like to write for the paper, but I'm not sure if they'd publish some of the things I'd say.
(You should hear what someone wrote in response to my letter to the editor in which I insinuated that speaking English in an Anglophonic country was a common courtesy.)
