+Summer: the sparrows whistle through the teapot-steam breeze.  The
+ubiquitous construction team tears the same pavement up for the third
+time, hammering passers-by with dust and noise: our shirts, worn for
+the third time, noisome from competing heat and shame.  As Nature
+continues her Keynesian rotation of policy, and as society decrees yet
+another parting of ways, it is proper for the common victims to have
+an evening to themselves, looking both back and ahead, imagining new
+opportunities, and recognising those long since missed.  God fucking
+damn it.
+</p>
+<p>
+This term's CTRL-D end-of-term dinner is taking place tomorrow
+(Saturday) at 7:00 P.M. at East Side Mario's, in the plaza.  Meet in
+the C.S.C. fifteen minutes beforehand, so they don't take away our
+seats or anything nasty like that.

+A lot of people wanted to go to the Mongolian Grill, but I'm pretty
+sure this place has a similar price-to-tasty ratio; what's more,
+they'll actually grant us a reservation more than four nights a week.
+I've confirmed that the crazy allergenic peanuts no longer exist
+(sad), and they have a good vegetarian selection, which is likely
+coincides with their kosher and halal menus.
+</p>
+<p>
+Come out for the tasty and the awesome!  If you pretend it's your
+birthday, everyone's a loser!  Tell your friends, because I told the
+telephone I wanted to reserve for 10 to 12 people, and I don't wish to
+sully Calum T. Dalek's good name!
