Off the hinge, the Sphinge
Alright, dear friends, after a five month hiatus the citer is back and seeing. As we discard our blinders, the first question the great Sphinx has a riddle: what does the S in Sphinx stand for. Well, scratch your head and ponder no more. The S stands for sexy as Sphinx Scribe Kevin Rurak (please note all alliterations, that is three, yes, three S’s) danced in drag along with fellow Pharisee, Shirley Liang, and the ho-hum Jazzy Fournier in this year’s Drag show.
Meanwhile, fellow Sphinge David Helfenbein, achieved neighbor status on the front page of the DP as he rallied for Hillary. Not to be outdone, the he found himself gracing the pages of the New York Times as he spoke of his love for the matriarch of the Clinton Camp.
Not long after the Sphinx made another appearance in the lime light as Samir Sheth lead Penn Masala at their Spring show, Masala T.V. As he crooned to the crowd, an array of Sphinge cheered him on. But the cheering did not stop there as Sarah Waxman lead the women's lacrosse team to victory against the Haaavad Crimson (the only red they truly showed was their blushing cheeks as our LAX team schooled them West Philly stizille).
Continuing the trend of red, or shall we say cred, Max Cancre, Chair of SPEC brings Luda, Gym Class Heros and Ok Go to Franklin field this Friday, April 11 for a fling that will be off the hizzle for shizzle.
This is just a clip of what has been going on in the past week here at Penn. The Has-beens, aka the class of '08, are still making waves despite their self-proclaimed washed-up. Stay tuned for updates on the new members of the University's oldest senior society. Check out our website for more updates and check back here for the latest updates on the movers and the shakers of the Upenn Quakaas.
