butter-Cy

As part of the homecoming festivities, there is a a sculptor who has fashioned a butter-sculpture of the ISU's mascot, Cy, out of 300 pounds of butter.

If he fell over and killed someone, would it be butter-cyde?

The fascination with all things dairy or ISU in this town is really quite something... I'm not sure I know the proper adjective to describe what that is.

Suicidal squirrel

Today, while walking home, I saw a suicidal squirrel run into a woman's bike.  The squirrel seemed to run directly into the wheel of her bicycle.  The startled cyclist let out of shriek, sending the skittish squirrel scampering up a nearby tree.

guys on bikes

I'm pretty sure I just saw 2 Mormon missionaries riding their bikes down Northwestern Avenue.
They were in their suits with little name tags and bike helmets.
Hey guess they gotta get around town too.
