i feel proud of myself for running the longest i've ever run, but feel like a schlub because of how much less it is compared to all these marathoners on here. :(

The "musical number" that replaces the original footage in Jabba's palace in the special edition of Return of the Jedi might be the worst thing Lucas has ever done, and that includes the "Star Wars Diner" scene from Attack of the Clones and Jar-Jar Binks and that stupid little kid as Anakin Skywalker. The "musical number" is a combination of over-done and cheaply done that is hard to describe, not to mention that it is totally, completely, and utterly deaf to the tone of the original sequence.

Yeah, I've seen that. OK, probably not.

When did Penn State Delco Campus become the Brandywine campus? It's still located in the Lima, Pa Metroplex which isn't all that close to Brandywine as I recall. What's up with that?

Plus, I moved a bunch of times -- including to Europe twice -- in the 80s and 90s. And these Penn State alumni folks have always found me. I haven't corresponded with that school in four decades. How do they do it?

I think PTK works for them in some capacity.

Penn State Brandywine name change happened within the past few years. I'm pretty sure I was working for the Collegian when it happened so I guess it must have been in '07, '08 at the latest. It's a pretty stupid name but both Media and Middletown would have been confusing for different reasons. I don't really know why they felt the need to change it in the first place. Maybe to avoid confusion with Delco Community College?

Shoulda gone with Penn State Tom Jones Diner Campus

I remember it being called the Lima Campus but the official name was Delco since it was part of a bowling alley in the mid-70s. It's a lot nicer now than when I went there.

I guess someone thought Brandywine sounded classy. That's how them academics think. (sorry phanpaul).

I wonder what a cool name for it would be? Granite Run Mall Campus? nahhh. There's gotta be something.
