2. Mr. Nelson, no longer missing
Published Thursday, April 26, 2001

Like a blushing bride on the morning after, I was flush with doubt—could the second time ever be as wonderful and entertaining as the first? But Willie Nelson was, Willie Nelson was.

3. Springtime for Victor
Published Thursday, April 26, 2001

You’d think that Jean Valjean, the hero of Victor Hugo’s 1600-page epic, already disadvantaged by poverty and a name that repeats itself, need not also be short. But there he is, a barrel-waisted Gaul who must crook his neck to make eye contact with the unflagging and self-righteous Inspector Javert in the Colonial Theater’s production of Les Miserables--an unlikely hero in the unlikeliest musical blockbuster in the history of Broadway.

7. Jordan, Stay Away
Published Thursday, April 26, 2001

Earlier this week, Jordan reduced his statement that he was “99.9% sure” he wasn’t coming back to just “80% sure.” This statement, coupled with friend Charles Barkley beginning to work out in earnest, has fueled the rumors of a simultaneous Jordan-Barkley comeback to the Wizards. But let me start by saying that as much as I respect and admire Michael Jordan, I hope that he doesn’t return to the NBA.

8. Predicting the playoffs
Published Thursday, April 26, 2001

Parity has made the league less predictable, with non-traditional playoff teams like the Mavericks and Hornets having legitimate shots to make it far in the playoffs. While many people have decried the NBA playoffs in recent times for their sometimes predictable finishes—it seems the favored team always wins, the Knicks’ near-miracle run notwithstanding—this year has the potential to surprise everyone.

9. Charity Ball
Published Thursday, April 26, 2001

Saturday was beautiful—a clear, sunny, crisp day. The perfect day, in fact, for the first annual Anchor Slam, a three-on-three basketball tournament organized by the ladies of Delta Gamma. The event, which featured 17 teams representing a variety of campus organizations ranging from final clubs to the Kroks, as well as teams of people who just wanted to play, was a fundraiser for the Delta Gamma Foundation, a national charity for the blind and visually impaired.

More importantly than the actual policies he has implemented so far, his first 100 days may shed light on the future direction of his time in office.
