Gaucho, Triton, or Bruin?

Teh boy has been accepted to attend UC Santa Barbara, UC San Diego, and UCLA. We are really proud of him for this. Now comes the hard part. No, not paying for it, that comes later. He must choose.

Teh parents are rooting hard for UCSD, which is a smaller, more beautiful campus.

Teh boy has his heart set on UCLA, even though best friend, Ryan, was not accepted to UCLA.

Please pray for discernment for the Stochl clan on this major decision.

Oh, Berkeley said "no thanks" to Mark's application. Some of us have it and some of us don't. I would never make it into Berkeley these days, and marvel that I ever did.

Followup (5/10/2007): Mark has declared for the faded blue and gold of UCLA. Go Bruins!

Funny Headlines

A somber day, this Good Friday. And I hate to be sacrilegious about the solemnity of the day. But these newspaper headlines struck me as really funny today. (H/T Best of the Web, who says conservatives have no sense of humor?)
