CHEWBACCA THE GROUNDHOG

Minimize

Phooey on Puxatony Phil!  He saw his shadow and predicted there will be 6 more weeks of winter. 

Schulte & Swann prefer a more accurate local prediction, so they did their own experiment.  They got Intern Just John to camp out in our recycling dumpster and see if he sees his shadow. 

Clare was supposed to get a groundhog costume for John, but the best she could do was a Chewbacca costume.

Intern Just John showed up already looking kind of Chewbacca-esque Wakey wakey Chewy.
John says he slept pretty well.  The corrugated cardboard made for an okay bed, and he had plenty of reading material. On a day as foggy as this there was no chance of John seeing his shadow.  Spring is coming early to the Corridor!

 

SPRING INTERNS

Minimize

We've got two new spring interns and Clare put them to work on their first day.

Meet Paella and Peggy.  Paella is a senior at the U of I studying Spanish and likes to learn about new cultures through their food, so we named her Paella.  Peggy is a senior at Mount Mercy University, but he's from Uraguay.  He worked in Customer Service at a call center, so he's Peggy (like the guy from the Discover Card Commercial.) Clare had the interns help assemble party favors for her Ryan Gosling themed Non-Super Bowl Party.  They made Ryan Gosling refrigerator magnets.
Just cut out your favorite Ryan Gosling picture, glue it to a little foam heart, add a magnet to the back and you're done! Each guest will receive one of these cute little goodie bags with their Ryan Gosling magnet and robin's egg blue M&M's to match the party color scheme.

 

ROY MARBLE

Former Hawkeye Great, Roy Marble, stopped by to share his new book with us.

The book is called "Two Decades and Counting:  The Streak, The Wins, The Hawkeyes, Thru the Eyes of Roy Marble." 

It goes on sale starting this Saturday at Carver Hawkeye arena where the legendary team from 1987 will be celebrate their 25th Anniversary. 

 

SHAWN JOHNSON

It took 4 years, but we finally met Shawn Johnson!

Scott, Ric, Shawn, and Clare at St. Luke's "Shawn Johnson: Inspiring Greatness!" event.  She's so nice and down to earth!

She'll be showing "Crazy, Stupid Love," which clearly illustrates Ry Gos is smokin' hot
