Hereditary Fructose Intolerance is a food allergy found in one
of every 22,000 people. Within the UW-Madison student body, this
would be approximately two students. One case is freshman Chelsea
Neitzel. Since the disease is so rare, most food services do not
know about or understand her situation, and she has problems at
restaurants and in the dorms.

It's hard to focus on the tasks at hand as you go through your
everyday life. There's always a catchy radio song, an exam or a new
romance to steal away your attention. But I've had my mind
preoccupied by something else the past few days. Something far more
sinister. Robin Williams has hijacked my brain.

The country's most used recreational drug, innocently concealed
in Hershey's bars, coffee cups and Mountain Dew cans, will likely
be consumed more often as the end of the semester winds down here
at UW-Madison.

In \Maria Full of Grace,"" a 17-year-old Colombian girl
(Catalino Sandino Moreno) carries 60-odd pellets of cocaine to
America in her stomach alongside the fetus of her newly-conceived
child. This debut feature film by Joshua Marsten explores the
effects on the supply side of the drug trade through the simple
story of a mule, Maria Alvarez.

Due to multiple people telling me that they are still crafting
their arguments for which is the best sports video game ever, I am
extending the debate until next week. Submissions are still
encouraged.

Last Sunday, the most meaningful meaningless match occurred down
in Florida. A game so shallow in importance yet so self-important
that fans paid up to $500 (that's 100 double Jack and Cokes at the
Plaza on a Thursday night) just to see two bitter enemies, for all
intents and purposes, take batting practice and stretch on the same
field. To the untrained eye, this was just an overhyped exhibition
game between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees. But to
the learned, this was a chance for the fans themselves to train
their minds, bodies and souls alongside their teams. For each fan
needs a little spring training in order to cheer for their team in
their own way.

Last week, Luis Aldofo Cardona delivered a speech here at the
UW-Madison. He told of his experiences with the Coca-Cola company
in his native Colombia and how it was complicit in the killings of
his union brethren because they went on strike at the popular
drink's bottling plant. Cardona is now touring America telling his
side of a potential blockbuster story.

Luis Adolfo Cardona, a former union worker at a Coca-Cola
bottling plant in Carepa, Colombia, told an audience at the Pyle
Center Thursday night that Coca-Cola Co. had helped sponsor
paramilitary death squads to bust his trade union,
Sinaltrainal.

Right now, I'm sitting in my living room with my laptop.
Scattered across the coffee table are two remote controls I don't
know how to use, two baseball caps I never wear and two Tylenol
tablets I plan to wash down with a Diet Coke. My eyes are heavy, my
head is queasy and the less said about the sunlight or the Qdoba
burrito in my stomach, the better. I'm hung over on a Tuesday. But
it's OK. It's all in a day's work for a world-class third wheel
like me.

Tomorrow is my birthday. Usually, Sept. 10 is a day I look
forward to; calls from family and friends, cards, presents and
parties-all that good stuff. This year, however, I'm avoiding my
birthday like a 40-year-old.

Last Tuesday, I was paging through UW's other student daily when
I ran across their 2003 Student Choice Awards, and I had an
idea.

Graduating seniors are plotting and scheming right now.
Questions need to be answered. Where are they going to live? Who
are they going to live with? What will a post-graduate apartment
look like? Will they be able to take care of plants? How will they
assert their post-graduate status? Will it be a job, a live-in
girlfriend, the great American novel or a dog? A distraction is
needed. Luckily, a great thing is about to happen. Amid the
whirlwind of possibilities flitting before seniors arises a nice
piece of solid ground to stand on: the party season.

It's mid-term season at the UW, and the collective stress from
thousands of students worrying about thousands of exams is
beginning to take its toll. Everyone deals with the pressure in his
or her own way. A lot of people say comfort food is a great stress
reducer. I can't really say that a bowl of mac n' cheese will do
much to release excess tension or lower your heart rate.

\The Falling Nun"" is a collection of short stories that wavers
between the syntactic clich??s of modernism and the dramatic love
plots of a Bront?? novel. The conglomerate of pieces all come from
the viewpoints of women at various turning points in their young
lives--ranging from a tattoo-obsessed twenty-something to a college
freshman plagued with an inability to stop crying.

Recent periods of studying history and politics have shown me
that the key to appreciating both is a keen eye for the
absurd.

The man said his name was Chis Chisholm but I swear to God it
sounded like Jizz Jizzum.
