To ease yesterday's heartbreak for singles, Bwog has coerced our daily editor emeritus and our webmaster into spokesmodeling for our acclaimed personal ads. Like what you see? Email us at bwgossip@columbia.edu and, if you're lucky, we'll make the match and spring ten (!) dollars for coffee. If you've got a friend you'd like to nominate... that's a good reason to email us as well.

Best Book You've Read for Class: 1919 by John Dos Passos
Worst Book You've Read for Class: The Counterrevolution of Slavery by Manisha Sinha. It was this history book that was just badly written. It had some interesting points but I don't remember a more frustrating book to read.
Most shameful thing you've ever done to procrastinate: Shooting at various targets in my room with a staple gun. My floor is covered with staples.
Beverage of choice: Dr. Brown's Black Cherry.
What are your most played songs on iTunes? This is skewed because of when I had to reinstall iTunes in the fall. It's five songs from The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly soundtrack. I'll list the top five that are actually by different artists:
L'Estasi Dell'oro and Il Triello (tie) - Ennio Morricone
Gasoline Dreams - Outkast
It Takes a Lot to Laugh, It Takes a Train to Cry - Bob Dylan
Sweet Virginia - Rolling Stones
Fish - Ghostface Killah
What do you wish were your most played songs on iTunes? Some new stuff. I need to find out what new music is good and listen to it.
Favorite Morningside Heights Meal: Milanesa torta at Taqueria.
The title of your memoir: I Had A Good Run
Dream date 5 words or fewer: Banquet
Thing you're looking forward to most this year: Going on this hike, in the Devil's Pass (yeah it's a badass name, ain't it?), in the Catskills. I don't get to do as much outdoors shit as I would like so right now I'm looking forward to that. Really, I'm mostly looking forward to the part right after I finish.
Thing you're looking forward to least this year: Job searches, job-related stuff.

School: SEAS
Major: Computer Science
Hometown: Springfield, Mass.
Best Book You've Read for Class: Excluding CC, I haven't read a real book for *class* since high school. So it's 100 Years of Solitude.
Worst Book You've Read for Class: "Freeway Grading And Elevation, 3rd Edition: 1978"
Most shameful thing you've ever done to procrastinate: I once rendered a scale model of my room and rearranged the graph-paper furniture for a good hour and a half. And I've got SimCities the size of Tokyo.
Beverage of choice: Black coffee. In a cracked mug, if that's an option.
What are your most played songs on iTunes?
Silver Jews - Punks In The Beerlight
A Tribe Called Quest - Chase, Part 2
Sufjan Stevens - Sister
What do you wish were your most played songs on iTunes?
I'm pretty OK with those. Lately I listen to MIA over 50% of the time.
Favorite Morningside Heights Meal: On more than one occasion, I've traveled from Brooklyn to 110th Street to satisfy a Koronet craving. Sometimes the counter guys shake my hand when I come in.
The title of your memoir: "I still think I was right about the following:"
Dream date 5 words or fewer: Making out; then, laser tag.
Thing you're looking forward to most this year: Never having to come back to campus again. Except to geek out on maps at Avery, as a dottering, rent-controlled old loon.
Thing you're looking forward to least this year: Buying my first new pair of pants since before "Hot In Herre" was played out.
