Bwog puppy-cuddler Claire Sabel found a puppy adoption truck parked on 104 and Broadway.  It’s too bad we can’t keep them in our dorms, but they look like they’re fun to play with!

Early this morning, Bwog received an urgent message: “Chairs Piano Lounge,” wrote the anonymous tipster.  “They’re new.  They’re now.” Accompanying these cryptic messages were photos of the old beige chairs in undignified stacks by the ramps. This afternoon, Bwog Private Eye Carolyn Ruvkun went to investigate. “Verdict: firm, supportive back.  Less butt cushioning,” she wrote […]
