This is the first post I saw, and I'm not sure who will read it. I'm Jef Johnson. I tried to be innocuous and just update my information in the alumni section, but the link was down. I tried to search for my fellow alumni, but that link was down too.

So maybe I'm just a bored alumnus, but by god I can still remember the singular of alumni after two liters of tesco red wine. I was going to let the college in general know I was still alive and was in the czech republic studying film. I was going to, perhaps, even apologize for vanishing so rapidly and leaving so many grand friends high and dry. I was certainly going to apologize for not capitalizing czech.

I was going to invite the watuaga students to go abroad for a year and learn czech in masaryk and sympathize with them for their votes (most likely) having not counted for much as mine didn't. All the same, though, in that regard, I would remind them that their vote is important, even if it doesn't happen to be the one to tip the state from red to blue. In that same vein I would regale them with tales of election night abroad, and the vast consumption of wine as computer screens were set to update every minute with the latest results. The people would slowly drop off, I'd tell them, until only one american was left, going back and forth from manning the computer diligently and looking fondly over the features of the slumbering Ukrainian just a few feet away.

But I can't do any of that, because the links are dead. So I'll just post this little comment.
