new TV's

[Guest]

Does any one else think that the New TV's in the libary and New Hall giving you information are a complete waste of money? Are they in any other halls? The UNI could save money and just send this information all out in an email or something.

Have to do SOMETHING with all that money you know!
Maybe the Principal likes to swim around in a vault full of gold coins like Scrooge McDuck

[Cain]

i fail to see the point of the TVs.

It's not even like they use moving images. You could use a PC screensaver or even, GOD FORBID! a notice board. Wait, there's a notice board there already!

It makes less than sense

While i can imagine the principal swimming around in money like Scrooge McDuck, i'd like to think that, unlike Scrooge, he does wear trousers all the time.

But how do you know the Principal wears trousers? I've never seen him except for when he's behind a desk of some sort, so you can't tell and in all the pictures of him you can't see his legs.

[hr]It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

I said i'd like to think that he wears trousers. I'm not shouting, just so that it stands out against your italicised refernces.

Since the bacon watch was such an involving success, who's up for a principal's trouser watch, where we each write in when we see the main man suitably attired?

This is your target. go forth and find his legs

actually, that sounds about as good an idea as installing TVs in the library foyer, and less fun.

You mean everybody doesn't think that they're the world's best invention?

I should delete that post if I was you young man, you're bringing the university into disrepute. A public web forum is no place for expressing your feelings on the matter.

Sorry guys, I saw him in the old union diner once, and he definitely had legs. He was wearing trousers too.

The idea of the SIPS system is to advertise various information and events in the university. It is massively cheaper than most forms of advertising given that it has such a wide distribution, and is currently undergoing a trial in New Hall, The Onion, and The Library. Its kind of in its early stage at the moment, but could get better with time as people begin to get creative and put decent adverts on there for useful stuff.
Examples of what it could include are future events, changes to times and dates, the nightline number, etc.
Its also kind of interesting to look at whilst you are drunk.
But it is trialling at the moment, so let Kirsty know what you think of it if you have any ideas..

Two points -
1)Rory has cunningly concealed his bacon roll inside the gown. The knowing grin is very telling.
2)Who is that guy with the huge mohican?

It's Jack Vettriano, the artist who donated a painting to the fashion show and did a masterclass in town a few weeks ago. Don't know why he's got the huge Arsenio Hall flat-top hairdo though

[John Stewart]

Or why the principal's hand is behind Mr Vettriano's back.

I wonder what he could be doing?

It's probably to conceal emergency supplies of danepak and hovis and a small primus stove, in case the presentation drags on too long
