The Great Snowball Fight of 2013

The Great Snowball Fight of 2013 Did you know? Nemo is Latin for no man or no one, and the name of the movie was a little joke by Pixar. And I refuse to bow to the Weather Channels new ratings-driven non-scientific naming system for winter storms, so that is the last time I will mention Nemo in this post. Its that time of year that meteorologists call winter, characterized by snow, cold, and snotcicles.  Actually, its been winter for a few months, but it wasnt until last night that winter truly came, dumping a few feet of snow on MIT: What better way to celebrate than with a giant Institvte-wide snowball fight study break in Killian Court? Im told President Rafael Reif accepted the invitation to the snowball fight, though I didnt see him. They* say that a pictures worth a thousand words, so Ill just leave this 8000 word essay: *lazy college students yes, East Campuss Tetazoo brought a snow slingshot funnelator: and someone from West Campus tried to take it down: and this is a very exhausted me after the snowball fight was over: It was pretty epic all these undergrads and grads coming together to pelt snow at each other and the fact that I hate the word epic but still used it should tell you how epic it was.  Also, possibly the greatest study break ever.
