Mandates and Imperatives

Hey there. You there! You with the stars in your eyes. You should rent Half Nelson. Ryan Gosling called me up last night and asked me to marry him but I had to say no because he is Canadian and is probably only after me for my citizen status.

There were a few surprises for the University of Washington's Class of 1957 when they opened a time capsule sealed 50 years ago.
Among audiotapes and copies of the yearbook and school newspaper were 1980s-era porn, a condom and some dirty underwear.
Alumni opened the capsule earlier this week in preparation for a public unveiling Saturday during a celebration of the 50th anniversary of the university's communications program. The capsule had been placed in an interior wall of the then-new Communications Building in 1957.
The capsule is being replaced by another created by a student-faculty team.
"The good news is that all the things that were in there are still there," said Jerry Baldasty, chairman of the Department of Communication. "The interesting news is that some other things were added."
There aren't any suspects in the case. But it was located outside the offices of The Daily — the campus newspaper — and it's assumed someone from the paper was responsible for the revisionism, said communication alumni and development manager Victoria Sprang.
The new capsule will be filled with digital media with a focus on "communication from a global perspective," said Coma Te, a senior among six students who created the new capsule.

This gave me a funny idea for a routine I can work into my stand up jokes set. I would call it, "Future Jokes" and I would describe a series of scenarios that would be funny only in the future. I haven't thought of any yet but I'm sure to.
