the pawprint is awesome

January 19th, 2006

While on a recent day trip to Keene, NH, my girlfriend and I stopped off at a random pizza place. During the wait for our pizza slices we stumbled upon an stray left-behind issue of “The Pawprint”, the high school newspaper of the Monadnock Regional High School. But I don’t actually believe it was simply “random chance” that caused me to find “The Pawprint”.

I believe it was, instead, divine intervention. Because now I get to tell you about it.

Listen; I know I may try to trick you into reading some weird stuff now and then — and I do apologize for that — but seriously, you really need to check out “The Pawprint“. It’s adorable. My girlfriend and I tore through the random issue we found with delight. Reading these issues take me back to being in high school, but instead of making me barrel-vomit in nail scraping, white knuckle terror, instead I get a soft, warm, fuzzy feeling. That’s high praise.

And! in a forward-thinking move by someone at the MRHS staff, every issue is available via unrestricted, searchable PDF*. Check it out.

yeah,.. fuck all that sap. spare me the tigerbeat, fluffy-kitty, sweet sixteen, candy kisses, diddlin’-yer-fuzzy-little-”hoo-ha”-behind-the-bleachers-at-the-pep-rally-with-Todd-before-he-charges-Derek-and-Scott-and-the-rest-of-the-soccer-team-a-dollar-to-smell-his-finger, Best-Friends-Forever, slumber party, saccharine sweet, drippy nostalgia bullshit. Put the fuckin Belle and Sebastian Box Set down!
The real meat of your post is in that last link to the Hoopty article about the New Yorker and their information gathering procedures. we need more over-the-top-taking-it-too-far responses to the tiny little evil-seed nuisances of the world. this is the perfect example,.. an overblown Wile E. Coyote plan of attack that flies in the face of all the passive motherfuckers saying “So what”.
I’d like to take a moment to say Hi to my mom, if that’s ok.

I am officially referring to you as “Suzy, the male-identified lesbian” from now on.

Y’know: I was going to send a link for this post to “The Pawprint”, and subsequently have them feel like a Big Important Publication That Other Sites Would Link To, but you guys kind of pissed all over that idea. Nice work. Efficient.
