Girls of PSU Calendar
November 1, 2006 | 5 Comments
I was recently shown this by a friend. Apparently a student/alumni at Plymouth State has put together a Girls of PSU calendar featuring students of Plymouth State University. Most of the young women are seniors and juniors and many of the pictures feature them in familiar Plymouth locations (Lamson Library, Lucky Dog, etc). The site and calendar both seem to be tastefully constructed.
From their MySpace page:
THE GIRLS OF PSU” 2007 Calendar is available for pre-order purchase! Two dollars from the sale of each calendar goes directly to a charitable organization that has been selected by each of the models. Also included are invaluble monthly coupons for incredible discounts at “The Common Man” restaurants! Estimated street date for this calendar is October 24.
They seem to have missed their release date. When it does eventually come out, you can buy it through PayPal for $15.00 + $4.00 shipping. I am impressed that they are donating some of their revenue to charity. As odd as this may seem, in many ways a calendar such as this could be good PR for the university…

So unforgivable… Explains a bit more about the ignorance and lack of sensitivity in her son
From The National Ledger: Barbara Bush: Let Them Eat Cake
With this one unfortunate slip of the tongue, a few moments of a radio interview, she has gone far towards helping us more clearly paint the economic boundaries of America in 2005. The lives of these people, in effect, really had no value without money. Losing your house, friends, community, and sense of place is a good thing. Be our guests, and we might even feed you some cake if you’re good boys and girls.
If you still don’t believe it, listen to the MP3.
