On stupidity, Perry and Paterno

Back in high school, a classmate asked me with a straight face: “What country is the Tour de France in this year?” I was dumbfounded. I told her it only happens every four years, but next time it will be in either England or Great Britain; I couldn’t remember which one. Although I expected this girl to get a negative number on her ACT, she somehow goes to UW-Madison (and she’s actually smart, believe it or not).

No 'Replica' for this masterpiece

Even today, there is a feeling of novelty with electronica music. Genres like techno and electropop have invaded clubs, and today occupy the province of "party music," and it's very easy to write off electronica as repetitious and mediocre, compared with more traditional genres of music.

Ask Bascom: advice from a Wisconsinite

Dear Bascom,

The guy at the door

It's a Saturday night and your big moment has finally come. You've been growing your scrubby facial hair out for the last two weeks, and you're wearing shades to cover up your bright blue eyes, even though your fake ID says they're brown.

New housing law hurts students

This summer, the Wisconsin state Senate passed legislation aimed at curbing local and municipal control over housing laws. Senate Bill 107, which was introduced by state Sen. Frank Lasee, R-De Pere, would prohibit local governments from enacting ordinances limiting a landlord's ability to show an apartment, search a prospective tenant's background or use that background information as the basis of rejection. The bill will be taken up by the state Assembly at some point in the current session.
