...player; as a golfer, however, he’s a club-carrying, bull-riding stud. Then there’s the 1986 classic Youngblood. Rob Lowe in the title character of Dean Youngblood is a Canadian junior hockey player who has a bad habit of thinking with his johnson instead of his brain. He sleeps with the coach’s daughter and, when daddy finds out, gets benched, forced to watch the other side decimate his teammates...

Where you once just surfed the web or arranged your CD's in reverse alphabetical order instead of writing that term paper, you now have almost four years worth of memories to relive, and though nostalgia is a little self-indulgent, it's more than occasionally necessary. Two years ago almost to this very day, I wrote a nostalgic column, which I now realize that as a sophomore I had no business writing. I was concerned that I had completed almost half...
