A young man is in the
parking lot on a sunny
Friday afternoon and notices
a pretty young lady. He
immediately drives up to her
and says “Hello, my name is
Oron.” She looks at him and
thinks to herself, ‘This man
is not attractive’! He gets out
of his 911 Porsche, pushes up
his trifocal glasses, and
stands proudly in her face
with bad breath. “My name is
Allison,” she says without
laughing. He smiles with
confidence and says, “I was
wondering would you like to
see a movie with me some
time?” Looking at the height
of his 4 inch afro, Guess
jeans, and Polo shirt, she
agrees.
What does this lady want?
A Man or something man
made?
Our campuses have so
many women and men who
are just like Allison. They
look at material items
instead of taking people for

Did you hear about the idiot

He burned his lips on the

How can you pick Dolly

Producer to writer: I have
some good news and some
bad news. The good news is
that Paramount loved your

Writer: What’s the bad news?
Producer: Paramount is my

A man enters a restaurant
with a dog and says to the
entire crowd: My dog can talk
and for 5 dollars I’ll show all
of you. Someone in the crowd
gives the man $5 and the
man turns to the dog and
says, “What’s on top of a
house? The dog replies “roof.”
The crowd laughs and calls
the man and his dog a fraud.
The man takes offense and
says for free he’ll prove that
his dog is genuine. He then
proceeds to ask the dog
“Who’s the greatest hitter of
all time in baseball?” “Ruth,”
replies the dog.
By this time the crowd is
about ready to throw both of
them out when the dog turns
to his master and asks, “Was
it Hank Aaron?”

what they really are. This
process has been around for
a long time and it’s not about
to die. People, not only in the
Atlanta University Center,
but all over the world look for
mates who have that five
letter word that can carry
them anywhere...MONEY!
Yep, everyone wants to be
around Washington, Lincoln,
Grant, and Jackson (just to
name a few). And how can
they be blamed; it can buy a
car, serious clothes, expen
sive jewelry, lavish dinners
and even a new body if there
is enough of it. But why do
people become so enthralled
with it?

Review
by Wande Dada
Tired of going out to Lenox
for a change of pace? Well, a
welcome change is just
around the corner—from Ga.
State that is. Ever heard of
Little Five Points?!! Well, it’s
a prescription for fun.
Located at Moreland and
Euclid Avenues, it plays host
to a little eateries, cute
boutiques as well as a
number of side attractions.
With the Inman Park Marta
four blocks away, Little Five
Points is quite accessible.
One of my favorite restau
rants, in Little Five Points is
Fellini’s, a punk rock pizza
joint. Don’t let the punk rock
title fool you though. The
atmosphere is very relaxed
and the pizza is the best in
the area. They offer all the
toppings and for beer lovers,
you’ll find your favorite brew
at Fellini’s.
The prices are reasonable.
A Large Pizza 7.50
Additional Toppings 1.00
Domestic Beer 1.50
Imported Beer 1.75
Soda .50-.70
Slices are available.
The area also offers Ethio
pian, Italian, Mexican,
health and junk food restau
rants. Enjoy!!!
Well, here in the AUC, to
have money is to have power.
“Sally” just came back from
the summer vacation with a
new Firebird. Last semester
no one knew her or even
spoke to her. But now since
she has gotten a “ride,” people
are trying to get to know her
and be her friend. This
happens with men also. If a
guy has a car, usually
someone will be willing to
date this person. Yes, it’s
hard to get around without
“wheels,” but to become some
one’s friend or to date
someone just because he or
she has a car is absurd.
Often, people who have
money flaunt it like a magic
wand. They feel the need to
impress others. Some feel
insecure about themselves or
afraid of being alone. As a
result, they try to make
themselves fit into a well-
known crowd on campus.
Hey, don’t get me wrong. I
am not saying that I dislike
anyone who has money, nor
am I trying to put anyone
down. But some people are
unconsciously materialistic.
Ansel Adams:
Exhibition at
Look around you, in the
dorms, in the class room, at
the next party. You’ll see
what I mean.
Instead of looking for a
mate with a car or money, try
looking for a mate who has a
strong self image and with
whom you can communicate.
Try to impress yourself
instead of being concerned
with impressing others. You
have to be satisfied with who
and what you are. If you are
not happy with yourself, all
the money in the Federal
Reserve Bank will not make
you happy. Material posses
sions are wonderful to have,
but remember, that’s just
what they are, material
possessions.
