Really been a while

I haven't posted on here in a very very long time. A bunch of cool stuff has happened though. A couple weeks ago I went to a big press event for Michael Bloomberg where he was launching a new Service initiative. I went with a couple of my friends on united student government, and it was cool to see Bloomberg up close. I got a picture of him as he walked by, but he didn't stop to talk because he had to drop his kids off at the pool, apparently. Caroline Kennedy was there, too, and so was Eliot Spitzer's far too loyal wife. I saw Lizzy Edwards on tv recently as well. What is it with all these wives who stick with husbands who have affairs with disgusting women that sometimes result in children? I dunno. Anyway, that same night, Newt Gingrich came to Fordham and spewed some pretty good conservative stuff and then some not so good neo-conservative fear-mongering, but it was awesome to see him. I asked him a question about the Fed causing the recession, though I was incredibly nervous and I stumbled all over myself, which is very unlike me. Anyway, he said unsustainably low interest rates defnitely contributed to recessions, which was good.

I've also been getting attention again for the newspaper, though this time it hasn't been bad. First, an article I wrote about our mascot beating up some kid who tried to beat him up ended up on a national sports blog (check it out: http://deadspin.com/5225053/mess-with-the-fordham-ram-you-get-the-horns) and then I beat up the school for not talking to the New York Times when they do bad things (here: http://www.theramonline.com/opinions/sorry-no-comment-is-not-enough-1.1737413) and then a report about the dean breaking up a party got me some street cred because I was shockingly objective (here: http://www.theramonline.com/news/spring-weekend-party-bust-1.1738792)
