Summer time, when the weather is fine

By Staff Editorial     5/14/09 7:00pm

That's all, folks. The Thresher is closing up shop, shuttering the shades and tossing out all the trash littering the office. Summer is here, and we're done.Well, for a couple weeks, at least. Fingers crossed, a road trip to Omaha will be in our future, watching the baseball team battle in its fourth consecutive College World Series. We may not have home advantage during the Super Regionals (thank you, University of Central Florida), but an 11-6 road record should keep us in the running for another National Championship.

We'll make sure to keep you guys informed all along the way, with postseason recaps and direct-from-Omaha stories on www.ricethresher.org.

Furthermore, we'll be preparing for Orientation Week 2009, with a couple surprises in store. Let's just say that we're getting a better handle on new media, and that those blogs you may have heard rumors of are slowly emerging from their cocoons.



So here is to a safe, sunny, super summer, and we'll see you when you get back.

Review: 'Adults' couldn’t have matured better

Sitcoms are back, and they’re actually funny. FX’s “Adults” is an original comedy following a friend group navigating New York and what it means to be an “actual adult.” From ever-mounting medical bills to chaotic dinner parties, the group attempts to tackle this new stage of life together, only to be met with varying levels of success.
