Those who usually use a backboard while playing dartboard they buy a backboard or many do not buy because it is expensive. So, the only solution to avoid this loss is to use the backboard behind the dartboard. And you will never want your play darts and your walls to be damaged. This can also damage the walls and ruin your favorite darts. If you are not good at playing the dartboard or you are learning to play, when you throw darts on the board, the darts on the dartboard are less likely to be thrown in the right place and by mistake the darts do not stick to the board and stick to the wall. Is this low key? Would Douglas Coupland approve? Doesn't this undercut the whole idea of Generation X Cola? Yes.The backboard of the dartboard means a separate board that is used to protect the wall behind the darts so that you throw on the board while playing dartboard from the thrown darts. "OK" was promoted by a prime-time television commercial blitz. The general consensus? "OK" was, well, OK.īut then, just as suddenly as this bubbly abberation landed in Cambridge, the spell was broken. The slogan completes the pitch-no hi-strung shrill jingos here-"Everything is going to be OK."Īnd what does the stuff taste like? Some say "somewhere between Pepsi and Sprite." Others: "a cross of Sunkist and Tab." The etymylogically inclined: "about halfway between 'good' and 'bad'" In an attempt at striking the distanced ironic pose that cultural commentators seem convinced is a hall mark of this mysterious generation, OK touts itself in small letters as "a carbonated 'beverage,'" with the last word in quotes-the hipsters who make "OK," one assumes, are too cool to use that technical word with a straight face. The rather casual shabbiness of "OK" is a shameless bit of pandering to the idea of Generation X evidently we are so fed up with the kaleidescopic self-promotion and colorful hype of Pepsi and Coke that we are helplessly susceptible to the soft-pedal. It features a deliberately rather plain font of "OK" against a white background with a narrow red border a sloppily drawn oval-headed fellow looks out quizzically from in front of a wall and a little box of a house capped with an aerial. The can is as radical a departure from traditional cola packaging as Generation X is from the Baby Boom. It is called, in a bit of understatement worthy of the most ardent slacker, "OK" Cola. Douglas Coupland's much ballyhood and much misinterpreted miscategorization now has its very own beverage. If you thought the concept of Generation X was a bonanza for pop social scientists and lazy "introspective" editorial writers, you thought too soon. Still we were hoping for a good, old-fashioned, Singapore-style caning. Looks like Gammill and Mathews got away this time.Īs for Braunstein and Davis, we think they could be nailed under Massachusetts General Law 266, section 120: "Entry Upon Private Property after being Forbidden as Trespass." The penalty, if convicted: a maximum $100 fine, or imprisonment for 30 days, or both. Sadly, neither tampering with Undergraduate Council property nor conspiracy to trespassing are addressed by the Massachusetts criminal code. As part of our continuing effort to serve the community, we checked with the state Attorney General's office to see what kind of jail terms these criminals might be facing. Big whoop!Īside from some concern for Gregoire's penchant for paranoid hyperbole, we at Dartboard support efforts to prosecute our fellow Crimson editors to the fullest extent of the law. Heck, when Ted Kennedy had a friend of his take his final exam, the College only made him take off two years. Wimps! The last time they really punished anybody was-well, we can't even remember the last time they handed down a decent punishment. This request for Ad Board action is ridiculous. Gammill '95 and Managing Editor Joe Mathews '95 [for their "complicity in this plot"): "conspiracy to trespassing." Braunstein '97: "unauthorized trespassing and tampering with property." And against Crimson President Marion B. The charge? Against Davis and reporter Todd F. create an ideal photograph for.surreptitious and malicious ends.") (According to Gregoire, the duo was deviously determined to "incriminate the for negligence and. Braunstein '97 entered the council's Canaday Hall offices earlier this month when no one else was there, moved an envelope about six inches and had a photographer take a picture of it. Gregoire '95 made an official request for the College to pursue Administrative board action against two Crimson executives, a reporter and council gadfly Anjalee C.
Fred Jewett '57, council secretary Brandon C. In a May 19 letter to Dean of the College L. It seems that somebody at the Undergraduate Council has been watching a little too much "NYPD Blue."
