This is just funny.
The best iPod case for sports - I’ve got a wonderful Burning Love case for when my iPod is at home with me (thank you, Mykala :), but I found that I need something a little more when I am running. This Incase case comes with wristband, armband, hard cover … everything you need for working out. Reasonable price, and a very rare flat A rating from Ilounge.com.
Occasionally, we get these “Public Safety Alerts” via the St. Thomas email system that outline some man making lewd comments on the corner of Cretin and Marshall or a 6’1” white guy acting suspiciously outside of the cafeteria. I, of course, made those up - but they should give you some impression of how low-key our public safety issues are. My sister lived in Minneapolis around the U of M for two years - a fatal shooting occurred right across the street from her. Now that’s real violence. Anyhow, in our little St. Paul haven public safety seems to be becoming more of a problem:
Public Safety and Parking Services would like to alert the University of St. Thomas community of a robbery that occurred off campus.
At approximately 12:15 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 15, a St. Thomas student reported that while walking north near the intersection of Cleveland and Goodrich avenues, he was assaulted and robbed by two black males.
The suspects came up behind the student and struck him in the head with an unknown object, knocking him to the ground. The suspects then began kicking the student. The suspects took the student’s cash from his wallet and fled from the scene. The student suffered injuries to his face and head as a result of the assault. The student reported the incident to the St. Paul Police Department the following day.
The suspects are described as two 20- to 24-year-old black males, approximately 5’ 9” tall, with medium build.
The student wished to share with the St. Thomas community that he is 6’ 5” and 225 lbs, and that his size was no deterrent to the suspects in the assault.
Seriously, that’s a little outside of the usual warnings we see. I hope everyone is ok and this is an isolated incident. I’d like to say something witty to lighten the mode, but I’m afraid there will be another incident where someone gets hurt and I’ll feel like a jerk. So, a heavy mood it is.
