Pete's Log: Log Entry 136
Entry #136, (Life in General)(posted when I was 21 years old.)
I just submitted the following letter to the editor at the observer:
I would like to share with you a disturbing observation which I have made over the course of this semester. I have always appreciated the hard work and effort which Notre Dame Food Services puts into ensuring that I have food on my plate. But a serious oversight has been made by the management of the Dining Halls. The choice of colors in the jello desserts made available has always been a poor one following Notre Dame home football games. On any regular week day I can enter the dining hall and choose any color of jello that I could possibly desire. But on the weekends only a limited selection is available. This is fine for normal weekends, but utterly unacceptable on football Saturdays. After every home football game I try to have my food match the love I feel for my school, and in order to do so, I try to find jello in our school colors: Gold and Blue. But these colors are never both available on weekends. Sometimes I can get one or the other, other times I have to settle for green, but never have I been able to have Blue and Gold jello after a home football game. This is an outrage! I hope whoever is in charge of jello color selection at the Dining Halls can see the errors in their ways and correct this gross oversight.
i feel i have made my contribution to absurdity for today.
