SF Chronicle: Santa Cruz mourns one that didn't get away
Beloved campus koi stolen, possibly grilled.
I knew that fish! A terrible loss, but what a joy it is to see my old paper quoted:
"FRAT Bastards" screamed a headline atop Wednesday's edition of the alternative campus newspaper, Fish Rap Live! It bore a cartoon showing a fraternity kegger/barbecue at the campus koi pond with a frat brother biting into a wide-eyed koi as others are passed out or romping in the pool while a TV camera captures the mayhem.
Any Santa Cruzans reading? I'd treasure a copy of this issue of Fish Rap. (My address is at the bottom of the page.)
Other favorite quote:
Porter, home to UCSC arts programs and "arty" students who embrace an "alternative" philosophy, according to residents.
My alma mater. Sigh.
Wha?
