May god Bless you and keep you. By Anita Allen Staff Writer At this institution we firmly believe in introduc ing our students to the real world. Life is not easy and neither is parking. Our park ing regulations reflect this in every way. By the time our students comprehend these regulations, they will be able to: program VCRs, decifer legal documents and pass NASA entrance qualification exami nations. All students are advised to have a working compass and these laws in their vehicles at all times. This will reduce the line of cars at the entrance caused by students who don’t know where to park. (1) Registration stickers should be displayed on the left rear bumpers no more than five millimeters above the bottom ofand no less than two millime- tersbelowthetopofthebumper. State of Unconsciousness By Kim Holt Staff Writer Funk & Wagnalls define sleep as “a state or period of reduced ac tivity, accompanied by a complete or partial unconsciousness.” Tech nically, this includes all of us. I was relieved to discover this definition because it confirms my suspicion that I’d actually been sleep walking through this entire semester. Strange things happen to the human mind when one falls into a deep sleep. For instance, if the phone rings in the middle of the night and I am rudely awakened from the abyss of slumber, there are several ques tions that immediately flee through my muddled mind: 1) Where am I? 2) Is that the alarm clock? 3) Who am I? 4) What time is it? 5) Is that the phone ringing? It is truly amazing how “out of it" a person can become when just awakened from sleep. In fact, I believe that perhaps the problems _ Oliver North experienced were 25 th Ajini him in a state of sleepful - —“^"^stupor. See, the contras, not realiz ing the vast time difference, called Ollie in the wee hours of the morn ing; realizing that he wasn’t very alert, they promptly asked him if maybe he could send them some firearms. North, of course, didn’t recall this conversation. People really should avoid calling govern ment agencies in the night time hours. I myself have been guilty of answering the phone in the middle of the night only to find myself speechless and unable to recall ex actly what it is one is supposed to say when answering a phone. The word “Hello” had totally been lifted from my vocabulary. For tliis rea son, my phone is strategically placed on the opposite side of my bedroom If any student or faculty re ceives more than three tickets per semester, the parking po lice will activate the self-de struct packet located within all stickers (this will result in approximately one thousand dollars damage to the car de pending on the make). (2) The charge for ticket num ber one is one hundred dollars, numbertwois three hundred £) dol lars and n u m - ber three is five hundred dol lars. (3) Parking Rules: Library: Students may park in front of, beside and Cent, on pg. 5 from my bed. I figure that perhaps I will have the answers to all the questions of identity and reality answered by the time I manage to travel across the room. Midnight phone calls are usu ally unavoidable nuisances. Alarm clocks, however, are under our control and we make sure that the alarm clock is aware of this fact every morning by hitting the snooze bar every ten minutes for two hours before actually crawling out of bed. Control. “The vigorous tue no better than the lazy during one half of life, for all men are alike when asleep.” -Aristotle
