Welcome to our magazine! This is a special week for Street, and as other things rose last week, we will follow in suit and, and to be a little prosy myself, give a little rebirth to the Street literary issue.

We are living in a bold new age of information.
A note from the editor
A note from the editor: In last week's shout-outs there was a shoutout referencing a student with bipolar disorder.
Letter to the editor
To the editor: I am writing this letter in response to the hateful 34th Street shoutout directed at my mental illness.
From the jeditor
Well, hello. This week Street is full of facts (and Shoutouts, see pg .17), and to begin I will tell you a not-so-secret Street-cret.

This week we are writing about the best. You may ask yourself, what does it take to be number one (because two is not a winner and three no one remembers)? Or is it two that is the best and three with the hairy, hairy chest?

Writers and photographers! After a brief hiatus, 34th Street is reviving its Writing and Photography Competition in affiliation with the Penn Review.

Dumbasses on ice
Starring: Will Ferrell and Jon Heder. That's all you really need to know before buying a ticket to a film about two guys trying to become the first ever same-sex pair of figure skaters. After an on-ice brawl between rivals Ferrel and Heder, both are banned from competing in the males single skating division.

It bothers me when people laugh at other people's choices of music. When they chuckle as Ace of Base comes on an iTunes shuffle and the owner of the music device scrambles to hit "skip," all the while wishing that he or she could find out where that damn sign that the band saw was.

For about a week or so - well, exactly the duration of Spring Break to be precise - I have been boring my friends, close relatives, and the card-swipers at both Van Pelt and Pottruck with the revelations that I came to while spending almost an entire week with no human interactions. Yes, over spring break, as my peers were basking away on beaches, backpacking through Europe or chillaxing at home, I spent some quality time here in the Ill of delphia getting "caught up" on schoolwork.
From the Editor
It's been an interesting week, to say the least. With spring a-knock knockin' on the door, the weather has just recently taken a turn for the better (or gas prices have stabilized enough to make an inconvenient truth a little more convenient and heat up the ill of delphia enough that I secretly thank every SUV driver as the warmth from their excess keeps my snot from freezing as I pass through the wind tunnel). That being said, we are on the home stretch, and this week Street is taking a look into the rare species of T.A.

If you are young and reading this - meaning that you are perhaps a) an idealist b) a Penn student and c) well versed in the works of such Revolutionaries of Ghandi, Ch‚, and now Bono (or sort of versed, you at least know who they are to the extent of identifying them on a poster in one of your friend's room) - chances are you are at some point going to attend a political rally, protest, or heated conversation at 3, 4, or 5 in the morning, catalyzed by some pernicious sort of drink or herbal supplement. Chances are you have thrown around words like 'Iraq,' and 'Bush,' and chances are you have not been talking about stones and short shrubbery.

Four, tres, two, uno. Listen up ya'll, cuz this is it, this issue of Street is ridiculous. Streetalicious definition: make our readers loco.
From the Editor
Well, hello. How are you? It's been a while. You are bored, huh. Just finished the sudoku? Well, sort of?
From the Editor
During the 2004 election, The Daily Pennsylvanian polled students for their presidential picks. A mere 19 percent of students said they intended to vote for George W.
From the editor
A little factoid, if you will: Penn considers students who take three courses full-time. As soon as I found this out, a few days ago, I dropped my fourth course.
From the Editor
One night last spring, my ex-roommate called Greek Lady at 2 a.m. to order delivery. Probably a buffalo chicken cheese steak (because it's ridiculous). For the first time all school year, they knew him without even asking.
