VOTE OR DIE

Vote or Die had to be one of the greatest ad campaigns of all time.  I never really understood what they were supporting.  All I knew was that it was hip hop and cool and MTV and Jay-Z and t-shirts and commercials and Carson Daly supported on TRL (rest in peace).  Incidentally, almost no young people voted that year, so I say lets try a little harder.  Hopefully everyone you talked to voted for Al and Alex and this time tomorrow we are dealing with great news, but if not I welcome you all to my shadow government with offices to be based out of my double in 66.  Of course I'm only kidding, and I want to seriously congratulate everyone for the noticeable presence in the quad today which clearly makes a difference. Well done, boys and girls.

Now that thats out of the way, lets talk Jörg.  Were you there to see him do his pastry magic with the rest of the Red Team? If not, I don't know if I can fully do this guy justice. He was unbelievable/crazy /inappropriate/hilarious/talented/Swiss.  I couldn't understand most of his demonstration because every third thing he said was about "toopsy tails" (the spelling on that is open for debate).  This might be one of those had to be there situations, but let me paint you a picture of an imposing Swiss biker-pastry chef who at various points in the night was using a blowtorch for "da budda cream" and making thong cookies for valentines day. Not normal.  When it came time to ice his bunny cookies, his insisted on adding the "toopsy tail" so we would know it was a rabbit.  Do rabbits have "toopsy tails" in Switzerland?  Do rabbits anywhere have "toopsy tails?"  Was chef Jörg drunk?  I sure don't have the answer to any of these mysteries of life, but I hope you now have something to ponder.  

Well done, red army.  We finished the week strong and now everyone knows we're all business.
