THE LAST FRONTIER
The Clarion \ April 17, 2009
American Hero
Greg Paulus has not played football
In four years. In fact, the former All-
ACC second team point guard didn't
play much basketball last year, either,
after he lost his starting Job on the
Duke basketball team to sophomore
Nolan Smith and saw his minutes cut In
half But Paulus showed us this week
that he's not letting the fact that his
name Is now more synonymous with
“teabag” than It Is with “Jumpshot”
Impede his drive toward fame. Paulus
switched gears this week and worked
out for bith the Green bay Packers
and the University of MIchlgan-as
a quarterback. Granted, Paulus was
a prolific prep passer at Christian
Brothers High In New York, and
theoretically would fit well with the
Wolverines spread scheme, but once
again- HE HASN"T PLAYED FOOTBALL
IN FOUR YEARS. For personifying the persistence Inherent In the
American spirit that will not accept failure and constantly explores
new avenues for revenue. The Clarion salutes Greg Paulus- a true
American hero- Just not one on the court.

NELL I IS JUST
'III .111
Last weekend, Christians
everywhere celebrated Easter, a
holiday reminding us that Christ
died for our sins. But If you
believe the theology espoused
by this church sign In Topton,
NC, you probably could have
Just saved your time Sunday
morning and slept In, as we are
all Just teetering on the brink of
eternal damnation, regardless
of all that 'Justification by grace
through faith" stuff that pastors
tell you about.
Summer Is approaching, and that means that school
will be out, the man with the best SeaDoo gets
the girl, and people will be salaciously exhibiting
copious amounts of flesh. But most importantly,
warm weather means it's biocl(buster season. Start
the summer off right by seeing if you cill in the
crossword with the names of the movies that the
following quotes come from.
