Making Friends
I was walking up Shattuck wearing my Ithaca Is Gorges t-shirt this morning when some crunchy-looking guy outside of Cafe Gratitude asked me if I was from the area. Turns out he grew up in the bustling metropolis of Danby, New York. We exchanged pleasantries and I went on my way, but as I walked off he yelled to me, "Long live the Haunt!".
I thought that was a weird thing to be nostalgic about.
You may now resume your internetery.

Interesting ... I am currently staying in Danby with Richelle's Aunt and Uncle... need a truck load of Ithaca is Gorges t-shirts? I personally like the Ithaca is cold ones.

Jeff-
Was it your "Ithaca is Gorges" shirt, or the sarcastic "Ithaca is Gorgeous" shirt that Coll had made up during our junior year?

It was actually the real "Gorges" shirt.
Coll's masterwork, though hilarious, is much much too big for me.

I also recall that it started a small trend of people having their own "Ithaca Is..." shirts. Notable ones included Wan's "Ithaca is Nice" version.
