Superman is a hero, but nothing like this guy

This is the product of a University of Phoenix education. Student was assigned to write a 1500 word essay with 5 references, and crapped out this gem. The student wondered why he got no points.

Education the future to the world, and how are we taking use of it today. Society will benefit from school by not being Challenge, better opportunities, and being a role model for the youth. Having the ability to read and write is a gift to everyone.Being challenge in this world is a major problem to people. First, you cannot obtain a job or career. Second, you will abuse drugs, alcoholic. Last, not having the basics down will keep you from understanding reading in writing. Benefit from education will take you far.Opportunities is a gift of success to the world. education brings on careers. being able to take care of yourself and family financially. having full control of your future. taking a step toward financially stability is a blessing waiting for us.Myself live in community of kids, and also having a child of myself. mastering your skills and being the best at what you do children look up to you.

Adams Gone Wild!

A broadcasting graduate from Arizona State University, Alana Wagner went on to win the Emmy for Best Video Ever.

Ballad of the Four Leaf Clovers

Please read the following as though it were a Ken Burns documentary narrated by Sam Elliott.

Irish-inspired Johnny Cash cover band by night, upper-middle rollers by later night. Not much else is known about the Four Leaf Clovers.

These rare photos from the Cover Band Hall of Fame in Las Vegas, Nevada, show the quartet during the peak of their careers:

Now Mike Kolb, who some say is a member of various other halls of fame in Las Vegas, Nevada, says these boys was ornery as a prickly pear. And, well, guess I'll let you see for yourself:

Yes sir, college boys.

Return of the Koef (to Spectacular Peninsulas)

The great state of Michigan is best known for three things: tart cherries, the auto industry and - best of all - Jonathan Koefoed.

Couple weeks ago, Sara and I came one step closer to living the Michigan dream when Pretty Jon himself stopped by Ann Arbor. Photography ensued:

(From left) Tim, Sara, Koef, Koef's lady friend Suzanne and Irish C regular/Ann Arbor native Kat Williams pose in the Kerrytown district after an almost-Arizona good Mexican lunch at Sabor Latino.


In this photo, Koef is a little less happy after finding out that Tim lost his leg in Vietnam.

Thanks to Koef, Kat and Suzanne for the mini-reunion in Michigan. All we need now is some Ted Nugent, and our Michigan experience will be complete. And maybe some Tigers hats. But, for serious, ones that actually fit.
