2. baller reports that shelboo was the subject of jokes and bantor all during the JB golf tournament this week.  Rumor has it that "waffle nose" was said a time or two.  Thanks baller.
3. word from artsy last night to expect the administrators to do well next week ("merit raise" wise that is).  Mainly chairs and associate deans types.  Thanks artsy.
4. bunson indicates that there was some rumbling over the COST merit raise list.  But, like the other colleges, it has been finalized.  Can't wait to see who's on it.  Thanks bunson.
5. If you've seen the Lisa Mader ads, you'll notice that on one two words stick out --- "polymer science."  That's SFT's touch, according to grapevine, and his way of keeping the notion that polymer is the only thing good about USM etched in the public's mind.  Thanks grapevine.
