Bwoglines: Mo Money, Mo Problems

By Bwog Staff on Oct 19, 2009 5 Comments

Even though it looks like the MTA may lose $113 million in state funds, fare increases seem to be the least likely option.

In the past, Bwog’s been content to draw on the resources of first Google Image Search and later (upon learning of a strange term known as “copyright”) Flickr. But not everything postable has had the good graces to be preserved […]

Sports Roundup: Rough Homecoming

By Bwog Staff on Oct 18, 2009 13 Comments

Yesterday’s Columbia-Penn Homecoming game wasn’t exactly pretty: the teams combined for eight fumbles and six interceptions in the visitors’ 27-13 victory. Quarterback M.A. Olawale showed flashes of brilliance—completing 14 of 26 passes for 192 yards and two touchdowns (one each to receiver Austin Knowlin and tight end Andrew Kennedy)—but was responsible for six turnovers of […]

Netflix: Hope? Hope!

By Bwog Staff on Oct 17, 2009 6 Comments
