MMMbop, oh yes!

I recently purchased what just may
be the best CD in the world. I am talk
ing about Middle Of Nowhere, by the
brothers Hansen. The three brothers
that make up this super group are all
wonderfully talented and they are all
so cute!!!
Ranging in age from 12-18 these
three boys simply pour their hearts and
souls into every single one of their
songs. Their first hit single,
MMMbop, struck such a deep chord
in this listener’s soul, so much so that
I just HAD to buy the CD.
The littlest Hansen, Zac, is so well
behaved and has never made a fool
out of himself on TV by being jerky
or obnoxious. His drum playing abil
ity by far outweighs any other 12 year
old drummer.

Dobbins is scrumptiliicious

The vast potpourri of
gourmet cuisine at the Gazebo at
Dobbins offers students a miraculous
contingency to experience a hearty
existence at Behrend. The Mongolian
beef and broccoli offers a unique
blend of flavors that reminds the
ingester of the yurts and yaks.
Next, there is the specialite
du maison which consists of the Italian
fettucini alffedo-sans warmth. Mange
mange!!! The savory steak fajitas a
la salmonella were a mouth-watering
feast that reminded me of a night after
a long day riding a burro on a trail
south of the border.
The day old doughnut
delight added a unique twist to the
endless assortment of nourishment
found in Dobbins. Another capricious
dish to add to the long list are the make
your own waffles. Although the
waffle makers are willfully
temperamental, they offer another
astonishing spread to the banquet.
One of my personally
preferred choices is the colossal cereal
dispensers which offer gourmet treats
ranging from Fruit Loops to Lucky

turned 15 and is every lady’s favorite
Hansen. His voice is so pure and an
gelic that when he sings “Where’s the
Love?” It makes your heart simply
ache!! David Cassidy has nothing on
this kid!
Ike, the oldest Hansen at the ripe
old age of 18 and a half, is the macho
stud of the group. Whenever he runs
his fingers along his guitar to play
those deep bass lines, visions of love
come to mind! After this kid gets his
braces off, Taylor is going to have a
little competition!
The only other thing that I can say
about this CD is that I can’t believe
the tremendous musical ability that
these kids demonstrate. In the song,
“Come to You”, the boys accurately
talk about being deeply in love. Oh,
how wise they are for their young
ages. So with that in mind, I suggest
that you run right out to buy Middle
of Nowhere to find out for yourself
where the love is.
Charms. They are magically
delicious.
Out of all the beverages that
are presented, I was most impressed
with the blue Hawaiian punch which
offers a taste of the tropics. The
infinite five gallon bags of milk offer
neverending moo juice delights.
Turkey dinner night
provides a scrumptious scoop of
whipped potatoes with a river of
flowing luminescent yellow gravy.
The stuffing includes a pageantry of
yummy bits of fresh bread and tiny
specks of liver.
The atmosphere of Dobbins
is a titillating, first rate experience
that is fun for upper and lower
classmen alike. The aura created by
the music which is played enhances
the overall enjoyment and fulfillment
of the Dobbins experience. I give this
astounding eatery 4 exuberant stars.
Bon appetit!!!

Blue Devils continue their reign as number one
by Jason Fiorello
staff writer
Prior to the NCAA men’s national
championship basketball game Mon
day night, UConn guard Kalid El-
Amin put it simply. “We plan to shock
the world tonight.”
He wasn’t kidding.
What were suppose to be two free
throws to secure the game for UConn
turned out to be the winning free
throws for Duke. With UConn up by
one point with 5.2 seconds left, UConn
guard Kalid El-Amin hit two free
throws at the wrong basket giving
Duke a one-point lead and a national
title.
Following a time out, Duke coach
Mike Krzyzewski instructed his play
ers to foul immediately to put UConn
on the line. El-Amin took the in
bounds pass and was fouled rather vio
lently by Duke guard Trajan Langdon,

giving El-Amin two free throws and
a chance to put UConn up by three.
However, apparently the foul had
ruffled him so much that he sluggishly
walked up and shot the free throws at
the wrong basket. His free throws
gave Duke a one-point lead and, as
he put it himself, “shocked the world.”
After El-Amin’s free throws, Ricky
Moore’s full court desperation three
hit the back of the rim and, appropri
ately, flew out to half court and hit
El-Amin in the head.
“I don’t know what happened.” El-
Amin said after the game while hold
ing a bottle of Aspirin and an ice pack
against his head. “I guess I will look
at the videotape of it tomorrow”. He
finished with 12 total points; 10 for
UConn and 2 for Duke.
UConn coach Jim Calhoun ex
pressed his displeasure with El-Amin.
“I think its safe to say his scholarship
won’t exist tomorrow morning.”

Duke, who finished the season on
a 33 game win streak and won their
third national championship this de
cade, had another way of looking at
it.
“We’ll take a win however we can
get it” Duke coach Mike Krzyewski
said with a smile on his face after the
game. “El-Amin definitely is a great
player, but I am not so sure I would
want him wearing a Duke uniform
after what he just did. In any case, he’s
my Most Valuable Player, which says
a lot considering he doesn’t even play
for me.”
“I didn’t think I fouled El-Amin that
hard,” Duke guard Trajan Langdon
explained while team doctors worked
to put a cast on his broken hand. “But
we’re getting championship rings, and
that is what matters.”
