Karin reports some guy just canceled a date with her so he can watch the World Series with his roommate tonight.

Annelise reports some chick in Atlanta who can't actually say no to the boys who want the digits is giving out her phone number up here in the Boston area. Like Lil' B and his crew:

... I'm keeping my phone on at night because my sister is extremely pregnant and I want to be woken up if she goes into labor. I do not appreciate Lil' B texting and calling me all night long. ...

The Tech reports 42% of MIT students considers themselves virgins (way higher than the national average), with chem majors the least likely to have had themselves deflowered. The report also discloses that 52% of non-virgin seniors have committed floorcest, or sex with dorm mates.

The Massachusetts Appeals Court ruled today a lower-court judge was wrong to permanently bar a man from contact with a former lover and her daughter, because there is no evidence he is still barraging her with "thousands" of phone calls and that if she begins to feel physically threatened, she can always file for a new temporary protective order.

... Administrators of the Greater Boston Food Bank now say that, despite earlier predictions, they are now "reasonably confident" that state lawmakers will be spared the sight of the Charles River running thick with the corpses of Massachusetts's emaciated children this summer. In a statement released today, the Food Bank says that they can probably keep the state's most vulnerable children fed for two months on the meat from euthanized zoo animals.
