Well, this Friday is Michaelmas, and you still haven’t got anybody to share it with.  Don’t worry—Bwog has you covered.  If you yearn for the dashing Ben or the lovely Kate, simply drop us an email at bwgossip@columbia.edu.  If you’re chosen, we’ll set you up and give you $5—that’s five dollars!—for a coffee date.  It’ll be a blast.  And don’t forget—if you or anyone you know wants to be featured as a personal, drop us a line and we’ll hook you up.

Chorale (I’m a choral music freak, what can I say?)

You’re trapped on a desert island with three foods—what are they?

Mallomars, Taco Bell Tacos, Dr. Pepper

Describe your favorite pair of underwear.

Gotta be the C9 by Champion boxer briefs. Comfort and support. It’s the way to go.

It’s 2 o’clock on a Sunday afternoon. Where can you be found?

My bed. Or doing problem sets.



Nightmare date in three words or less:

Fashonista on crack.

So, what are you doing after college?

Grad school?  Or possibly designing sewage systems….

When I first came to Columbia, I thought….

I’m home!!! [Spins circles in celebration.]

TCBY or Tasti D-Lite?

Of the two, Tasti-D, mostly because the name reminds me of afternoon delight.

Flight, invisibility, or X-Ray vision?

Flight. Invisibility and X-Ray vision present too many ethical issues. Plus, free travel.

Unusual talents?

Seeming not-Texan and not Engineer-ish, and I make a mean break-n-bake

cookie.

MySpace or Facebook?

Facebook.

Ben! You’re the one for me!

You’re trapped on a desert island with three foods—what are they?

Cheese (any kind, really)

Scones

Describe your favorite pair of underwear.

They’re black and they sit real low.

It’s 2 o’clock on a Sunday afternoon. Where can you be found?

On a street corner panhandling for a cup of coffee

Nightmare date in three words or less:

Me. Wearing. Dress.

So, what are you doing after college?

A stint in the Peace Corps.

When I first came to Columbia, I thought….

Oh God, I’m the only person here with purple hair.

TCBY or Tasti D-Lite?

Tasti D. They put the topping in the bottom of the cup too!

Flight, invisibility, or X-Ray vision?

Flight. I’d like definitive proof that it is, in fact, impossible to sleep on clouds. They just look so fluffy.

Unusual talents?

I can do a no-handed cartwheel. And make a mean grilled cheese. Probably even at the same time.

MySpace or Facebook?

Ideally, neither.
