Quote of the Week
Top Editor: I have someone’s scrapbook Normally, in this space, I take
the time to write letters to my-
self and answer them, thus ce-
menting my status as the cam-
pus loony.
However, today I bring forth
something that I in fact did
NOT make up, and something
that I’m abusing my powers as
Top Editor to get the word out
there about.
Whilst browsing the Chris-
tians in Action thrift store ear-
lier this year, no doubt looking
for a Foghat 8-track tape or a
Douglas Adams novel, I hap-
pened upon a senior year scrap-
book that belonged to someone
named Tiffany Shannon Brink.
I have no idea who Miss
Brink is. From what I could
gather from her scrapbook, the
lass graduated high school in
2006. Even more perplexing is
that she graduated from a high
school in southern Illinois.
Naturally, my inquisitive
nature wondered how this
scrapbook made it to San An-
gelo.
There is no doubt that this
scrapbook was dropped off at
Christians in Action by acci-
dent—there’s no way you’d
throw away something like
that! But how did this item
get from a small town in
southern Illinois to San An-
gelo, Texas?
So my first thought was
that perhaps Miss Brink was
in the military, and she had
been stationed locally at
Goodfellow AFB for an un-
specified amount of time. I
don’t know if this is the case
or not.
I also considered the pos-
sibility that somehow she
heard about our fine school
(Angelo State University),
and decided to pursue
higher education here deep
in the Pancreas of Texas.
Either way, it would explain
how her scrapbook ended
up down here.
Anyway, I ended up shell-
ing out a couple of bucks for
this scrapbook, and my in-
tention is to return it to
Miss Brink, wherever she
may be.
I’ve already tried Face-
book. There are like twenty
billion people named Tif-
fany Brink on that website,
and none of them were from
southern Ill inois. And
MySpace was equally unhelp-
ful, but who on earth uses
MySpace anymore?
Plus, there’s the possibility
that she got married or some-
thing and changed her sur-
name. Hmm.
Then I remembered that I
was the Top Editor of the
Ramdiculous Page! Our read-
ership is pretty high—perhaps
someone at Angelo State
knows Tiffany Brink! Or
maybe Miss Brink is even a
reader! The possibilities are
endless!
So here’s my overall state-
ment: Tiffany S. Brink, from
Carmi, Illinois, I have your
senior year scrapbook. Quite
frankly, I don’t want it.
But I figure you’d want it. It
has your senior year memo-
ries, after all. So if you’re out
there, please write to us at
[email protected], and I
will gladly return it.
Have a letter for our editor? Send an email to his inbox at [email protected], or message him through our Facebook page. Good luck.

the incredible question
Ram of the Week: Rachel Wood Meet Rachel Wood. She likes animals and animal rights. She seems like a pretty humble person, actually. We sent her a message over
the Facebook wires, asking her what she’d like us to write about her. She re-sponded with a simple (and I’m paraphrasing), “I’m not that interesting.”
Really, all we got out of her was that she’s in school, and that she goes to work. That’s it. I could write something about her fighting space zombies, but we all know that’s just me being silly.
Anyway, she also wanted us to write about animal rights. All I really know about animal issues comes from The Price is Right, wherein Drew Carey (like Bob Barker before him) urges viewers to have their pets spayed and neutered, to reduce the pet population and whatnot. Sound advice, methinks.

Movie Times from yesterday
Space Jam (1996) By Thomas Nast
True story: I was in fifth
grade back when this movie
came out. I had a crush on
some chick named Patricia,
and the ENTIRE playground
knew it.
So imagine my shock when
I asked her to go see Space Jam with me, and she shook her
head no.
It wasn’t until years later
that I realized that ten year
olds usually don’t ask other
ten year olds to movies. Least
of all movies starring Michael
Jordan and Bugs Bunny.
Heh, I just remembered that
I still have the soundtrack to
this movie. I swear, it’s like
the best soundtrack of the 90s.
WAY better than the sound-
track to The Bodyguard. My
Space Jam CD has to be at least
thirteen years old now, and it
STILL plays in my car.
As for the movie itself? Bugs
Bunny playing basketball with
Michael Jordan, based off of
some sneaker commercials
from the early 90s. Not bad.
Man, I miss the 90s.
Thomas Nast is the Ramdicu-
lous Page’s movie critic this week. We honestly don’t know why we let him do it.
