The effects of Welcome Weekend might have worn off almost a week ago, but alas, my fellow partiers, er, Spartans, Saturday morning is the beginning of a weekly tradition that will last through late November. I'm not talking about Saturday morning cartoons or pulse-pounding hangovers.

Most of the tracks fly by, even though six of the songs are longer than 7 minutes, with three coming in at a whopping 10-plus minutes.
Ah, the first day of classes.Day one means meeting your professors for the first time and becoming quickly acquainted with the swapping-and-dropping-classes system.Day one means laughing at the inexperienced in-line skaters who have yet to discover how to use their brakes yet refuse to wear pads.The first day at MSU causes fear for your life as sidewalk-demanding bicyclists peddle through the campus or rapidly accelerating drivers rip around corners with no regard.
