Ever wonder who actually writes Wikipedia pages? I have this image of a group of sage old British men, puffing on their pipes and sipping on their teas as they dispense all of their worldly knowledge into a giant supercomputer called the Wikicomp.

What better way to celebrate the end of a fast (other than eating) than by watching a show that we haven't seen in two weeks? Unfortunately, we were denied a new episode of The Office last week because everyone wanted see what Sarah Palin would do during the talent portion. But the show is back with a new episode this Thursday at 9: Holly leads a business ethics seminar and awkward chaos ensues.

College can be stressful. That's why it's important to take some breaks every once in a while, say, watch an episode or two of some good TV. Over time, if everyone follows the recommendations in these posts, life at Penn will grind to a complete halt, but everyone will be blissfully entertained and relaxed.

The New York Times today ran an article about a guy from New Jersey who likes Bon Jovi and went to Wharton. But unlike everyone else for whom those characteristics apply, he didn't just lose his job at Lehman. Dude went a different way after graduating Penn in 1996: he became a professional baseball player.

As mentioned earlier, tonight in Meyerson B1 from 7 to 9 p.m., sex educators (now there's a business card) Dorian Solot and Marshall Miller will be presenting something called the "Female Orgasm Program." According to an e-mail from the Penn Women's Center, this is a course featuring "'sexy' material in a tasteful, appropriate manner," so you know what that means--donkey show!

In the days before The Hills, before My Super Sweet Sixteen, before Y2K, there was a man. His name was Carson Daly. He was of an elusive age, he wore black nail polish on his fingernails, and he brought us music videos that we, the people, voted for on a show called Total Request Live.

On Saturday, Kate Walsh spoke at a PennDems meeting to inspire students to get involved in the election, both as voters and as volunteers in the Obama campaign. In the clip below, Walsh interrupts her comments on the campaign issues to... forget her train of thought. But she overcomes her jet lag to talk about student loans and healthcare:

Allow me an imperfect analogy. Barack Obama is to Meredith Grey as Hillary Clinton is to Addison Montgomery. Sure, people are talking about the upcoming election against McCain (Rose the wide-mouthed nurse, in this case), but everyone still remembers the epic battle during the Democratic primaries (the second and third seasons of Grey's Anatomy). And, like the gracious loser she is, Hillary has offered her support to Obama in his bid for the presidency, though she clearly remains a bit peeved. Similarly, in this clip (cut to 2:18), Addison threatens to kick Meredith's ass for letting Derek get away. Yes, McDreamy is the presidency in this analogy. Like I said, imperfect.

If you go to Wynn Commons tonight between 6 and 9 p.m. you will have the opportunity to take part in the most glorious event to come to campus since Robert Redford screened Lions for Lambs here last year and somehow ended up calling Penn "a sexy school."
