The Independence of Kosovo Has Just Been Canceled, Kthxbye

Liveblogs are Not Supposed to Be Funny.

Or at least that’s what I’m going to start using as an excuse. Unfortunately, due to this really annoying thing called “school” that keeps meddling in my extracurriculars, I won’t be able to write the corresponding article to the liveblog (which will be good! and was the point in liveblogging the whole thing) tomorrow.

Inaugural UC Meeting Liveblog Starts Now

Your humble correspondent (Bill O’Reilly hasn’t trademarked this phrase yet, right?) has, throughout the course of the night, braved all sort of natural disasters, from angry shuttle drivers that wouldn’t let her on the bus to the first harbinger of the Apocalypse to fall over Massachusetts since Terry McAuliffe became a superdelegate: thundersnow. At the moment, the high-brow UC meeting consists of SAC Chair Jon Staff dancing to Digital Underground’s “Humpty Hump” around Harvard Hall 104, but I am told this is a completely serious meeting, so I’m not smiling just yet. Concerns over my identity are also arising as I slowly realize that I am here tonight to praise and poke fun at the guy I was running against merely two months ago. But- hey!- at least Sundquist doesn’t play polo, so I have no fear of him jousting into the room and impaling me anytime soon.

Super serious reporting starts now.

UC Inaugural Liveblog, 7 PM ET Right here

Need to take a break from the madness of elections that actually matter to the rest of the world? So do we. That’s why we’re hosting the first UC Inaugural liveblog tonight at 7 PM, live from Harvard Hall 104, where UC president and vp elects Matt Sundquist and Randall Sarafa will give an address about improving our lives or something and then we are told a UC meeting will happen? Well, we hope to escape the UC meeting aspect of it all before it’s too late, but stay tuned for the latest on the inaugural addresses. Feel fortunate: a thundersnow scare almost lead us to believe we would miss the momentous occasion, but the wacky weather has changed for the better. Exclusive coverage here on the Indy blog!
