Some people spend the beginning of the semester re-adjusting to Madison, buying textbooks and trying to start the school year off on the right foot. I, on the other hand, spend this time looking for the most miserable people around me and doing what every smart American does in response to human sadness: figuring out how to profit from it. And I've found just the right misery-literature classes.
The citizens were getting frustrated. They had been dutifully paying their taxes, but the tyrannical government didn't give them any say in how that money was spent. They had loyally answered their country's call during a time of war, but instead of providing for them when the war ended, the government made them pay its war debts through more taxes. Then it imposed all sorts of burdensome new acts, for which the citizens footed the bill with still higher taxes.
An abundance of political conspiracy theories can usually be found floating about in this country, especially during an election year, but here's a new one for you: Could there be a secret Bush cabinet garage band in the works?
We, at The Daily Cardinal Arts Desk, realize that adjusting to any new experience is hard. As a public service to our readership we asked rockstars ranging from Fountains of Wayne to The Decemberests to Ben Kweller to offer their advice.

With the 2004 National Football League draft this weekend, members of The Daily Cardinal sports staff decided to give their impressions on how the first round will breakdown, barring any court decisions allowing wide receiver Mike Williams to enter.
When one thinks about cafeteria food, images of mystery meat, lunch ladies, and food fights usually come to mind. But here at the UW, those are more or less a thing of the past. Dormitory dining may still be a far cry from gourmet, but you might be surprised what one swipe of your WisCard can buy.
No dice Clarett, Williams
I've been thinking it for years, but I'm finally going to say it-Easter is confusing and scary.
Dane County District Attorney Brian Blanchard formally charged Audrey Seiler Wednesday with two misdemeanor counts of obstructing police officers stemming from Seiler's account of her disappearance in March.
A frequent and exasperating practice of Hollywood studios today is their penchant for making movies that must be PG-13. This is a greedy attempt to maximize profits by appealing to the largest audience possible. Nothing makes a rich studio CEO happier than the release of a good-ol' PG-13 flick that Mom and Pops can bring the whole minivan full of kids to.
The lies of a confused young woman should not be allowed to lead to a backslide toward police disbelief of victims. The Madison Police Department handled a high profile and high stress situation admirably well, backing Audrey Seiler until her story was proven false by evidence. Paired with the higher profile afforded to recent reported sexual assaults, it is a hopeful sign to those who have come to question police support of female victims. Acting Madison Police Chief Noble Wray appears to be leaps and bounds ahead of just-retired Chief Richard Williams.
The hordes of national media converging on Madison last week with video cameras and tape recorders aimed pointedly at the community put unbelievable pressure on the city's police department. Searching for salacious details to top the nightly news, the media constantly beleaguered the Madison Police Department with loaded questions and expected conjectures.
This past Wisconsin men's basketball season was something that will go down as one of my favorite memories of college.
For the majority of the population, junior high is normally not considered the most pleasant time of life. This is a period of cliques and self-consciousness in which an elite crowd rules the school. Arrogant teachers and principals make-believe they are relating to students, and parents don't have the faintest clue what daily life truly consists of from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
Attention, music majors. The time has come for you to finally garner respect in the eyes of your fellow students. Yes, shocking as it may seem, frightening as life outside of Humanities may be, I say again: It is your time. This is your D-Day, your march on Washington, your surprise victory in a no-holds-barred steel cage match.
