American HI-FI @ Trocadero-Philadelphia, PA 7:00 p.m. —a column by Matt Meehan

Tool @ Mellon Arena-Pittsburgh, PA 7:30 p.m. We here at The Campus like to believe that we are the most widely read publication at Allegheny. This claim is probably true; after all, how many other newspapers or magazines are as accessible and affordable (read: free) Saturday 9.29 as this one right here? Unfortunately we often fail to support this claim with any data regarding what other pub- lications our students turn to regularly for news, insights, and entertainment, so it's hard to say which ones are Skid Row @ Shakey's-Hershey, PA 8:00 p.m. nipping at our journalistic heels. Luckily for my editors, I often amuse myself by conducting unscientific and completely random surveys con- Sunday 9.30 cerning things like this.

They're proba- bly the same idiots who helped me to conclude that over ninety percent of the jerkwads who cut me off in traf- Modest Mouse @ Trocadero-Philadelphia, PA 8:00 p.m. fic do so because they're more interested in their cell phones. So rather than allowing these critics to deter me, I did my own poll concerning other publications that students at Allegheny like to read in their spare time. The Lifehouse @Willkes University-Wilkes-Barre, PA 8:00 p.m. results I came away with were not surprising. For several years now, Maxim magazine has enriched the lives and libidos of many bored and lonely Alleghenians, both male and female. The magazine is typically geared toward males, with plenty of info regarding "guy things". The cover promises fresh perspectives on such classic male interests as "beer" and "gadgets". The most popular feature is the monthly photo spread, in which an attractive COMPLETE CONFUSION young actress or model wears just enough clothing to avoid being dubbed a porn star and tells an interviewer all A CARTOON BY CAM TERWILLIGER kinds of lies designed to make the average reader think he has a fighting chance of making it with Tony Soprano's daughter. But my favorite segment in Maxim is called "How-To". This is where you can turn to learn vital information like how to make sushi, how to win the lottery, and how to construct a potato gun. I find these descriptions fas Oooh...Why did I drink all that Tang? cinating, and I read with delight even those that I would never even try to execute. In the interest of protecting The Campus' sovereignty as the number one publication in town, I think we should do everything we can to pro- vide the same interesting features that Maxim does. And since my editors wouldn't let me appear in The Campus' first-ever semi-nude photo spread (erring on the side of , caution), I now present a How-To section with an Allegheny spin. Enjoy! How to Impersonate an Allegheny Student: Start by dressing as though it's February in the middle of September. Lobby the management of Country Fair for Pizzas on demand. Put in plenty of time at the library using Instant Messenger and browsing CDs on Amazon.coni. Then go home and complain to your roornrnates/housemates about how much time you spent at the library doing work. Be sure to contribute to the Britney Spears-is-coming-here-and-then-we're-going-Ivy League rumor mill. Say "seriously" and not so much" at least 57 times a day. How to Mess with the Heads of Meadville Drivers: Buy or otherwise obtain a car similar to those used by undercover police officers. Buy a spinning blue or red light (one can be easily obtained at Spencer's or anywhere else that stupid electricity-wasting crap is sold) and place it on the roof of the car. Buy a hairdryer or steal one from someone you know. Sit in the car alongside any road that intersects with Park Avenue or North Main Street and point the hairdryer at any motorist driving a large truck with a deer-or-student-carcass-scooper attached to the grille. Laugh when they slow down, knowing that your subversive antics are much more safe and effective than standing in the middle of the street playing chick- en and trying to look like a hardass. Win the thanks and admiration of everyone. How to Waste Time Trying to be a Fitness Nut: Go to the Wise Center and walk — don't run — on the treadmill. Marvel at how few calories this actually bums. It is of especial importance that you remember to stop at McKinley's on your way home, or you may actually improve your health. How to Make a Veggie Sub: Today's Horoscopes Start with your choice of a white or wheat hoagie roll. Pile it high with pickles, peppers, tomatoes, onions, or any other leafy greens that you might enjoy. It is recommended that you add cheese and some type of condiment so you can tell that you're actually eating. Use rhetoric to pass it off as a real meal.
