Come by the C.C. Reader Office and pick up your tape. The winning answer to the question, "Name Foghat's tenth album" was "Tightshoes." Rick had a real battle with one other person. It had to go down to the final tie-breaker to decide the winner. My column will be back in the next issue. Sorry. I'm presently on special assignment. Don't lose any sleep, hey! - For Your From Tau Kappa Thursday, January 28, '1982 w. s‘4o'll 4.•••,414t441 Question... Gentlemen: Why was that bowl the Nittany Lions played in called the Fiesta Bowl? Was it because it was a fiesta to get the team away from University Park for a few days? Or was it because the fans had a fiesta to celebrate that the football season was finally over? Bob Antonini Happy Valley Correspondent Dear Mr. Antonini, It was called the Fiesta Bowl for one simple reason. The NBC camera crew managed to go the entire game without focusing below Joe Pa's waist, thus sparing PSU fans from looking at clam diggers and white socks, a sight which we have all had our fill of this year. This, even more than the PSU victory, gave the fans plenty of reason to call it the Fiesta Bowl. Some inside info: The only reason Joe agreed to take his flashy, imaginative offense out west is because he thought the Lions were going to the Siesta Bowl. Dearest Bave and Dill, How cum youse guys don't have a column about Veterans in your paper? You know. New policy on veterans benefits, Agent Orange legislation, (Oops, excuse me, my right hand just fell off! I'm sorry Agent Orange hasn't been proven hazardous to your health.) etc. Shape up, C.C. Reader! Dear D.G., We would be more than happy to accommodate you, if only someone would write such a column. On second thought, if you are typical of the military intelli gence around here, we'd rather run a column on great singing veterans of the opera such as Slim Whitman and Boxcar Willie. The next time, buddy, try writing with your left hand. Gentlemen: This year the federal government will not require aliens within the borders of the United States to register an annual alien address report with the Immigration and Naturalization Service, but will' require all male American citizens between the ages of 18 and 21 to register with the Selective Service. Wouldn't you say that this is a case of reverse alienation? Alfred Bryon & Al Piantadosi We have landed. A Stupid By Bill Neil And Dave Caruso Disgruntled Grunt Ask Dear Alfie and Albie, Although you may have a point, we feel that a true case of reverse alienation is noitaneila. Dear Sirs, I understand it is easy to answer a stupid question, because only stupid people can answer it, and only stupid people will understand it. Dear Stupid, While we're on the subject of stupid ity, ma'am, we have come to the conclu sion that if we shoved your brain down a gnat's throat, it would rattle around like a beebee in a boxcar. If this answer meets your qualifica tions, then even you should understand Dear Bill and Dave, Is it possible for a cunning linguist to breathe under water? Dear Quadrupedal, Affirmative, Wile E. He or she just has to be careful of his or her morphemes and phonemes. The wrong combination of morphemes, phonemes, and H2O, you must remember, can cause diarrhea of the mouth. Dear Editors, What do you think of a column in the READER entitled "Name Your Perver sion"? We could sit back and see what type of weirdos inhabit the C.C. campus or to what astronomical limits the individual's imagination will reach. The Right Rev. Slippy Wraparound Dear Impostor, There already exists such a column; it's called the personals. We would like to thank all of our "stupid" contributors. Keep those queries coming, and remember: When all else fails, read the directions. Page 3 U. Stupid Wile E. Coyote
