Day 41-Creepy Baby Antenna Topper

Dear UNL,

     We found this on a random car in the parking lot.  Frankly, we find this CREEPY!  WHY IS THERE A BABY ON THEIR ANTENNA?!?!?!?!?!  WHYWHYWHY?!  We are going to go cry..... and possibly have nightmares. :(

Sincerely,
killa & barney

Day 40-Burr Hall Decor

Dear UNL,

     You really must tell all the other dorms on campus to get a step up on things, this holiday season.  The guys in the Burr Hall dorms really have a leg up on the competition.

     Driving by the Burr Hall parking lot, if you look up towards the windows, you'll see the christmas tree and christmas lights that the guys have put up.  It's very festive and brings a little of the Holiday Spirit to everyone.  We sure do like to see the lights up on campus. It's a grand effort the the Burr Hall guys.  Well done, Burr Hall.  We applaud the guys in your dorm.  Keep it up!

    Students, staff, and readers alike, take a stroll or drive around campus and look for the Holiday lights.  If you see any, send us a pic, we'll be sure to add it!  Stay classy, UNL.  We will always love you(and the spirit you bring to the occasion).

Sincerely,
killa & barney

Day 39-Schorr Building

Dear UNL,

     If you walk around City Campus alot, you might already know about the Schorr Building.  If not, let us tell you.

     Next to/underneath/connected to/adjacent.  Those are many words to describe the location of the Schorr building in relation to Memorial Stadium.  Now, we really have no idea what the Schorr building is for.  Sure the sign says Computer Science Center and Engineering, but after that.... we have no clue.  But if you walk over there at night, you'll see the Husker Red glow emitting from the building.  It's really quite beautiful!  And nothing says school pride like a building lit up in HUSKER RED. It kind of gives the Schorr building an eerie glow at times, if you look at it just the right way, but other than the occasional shiver that runs down your spine, it's pretty cool.

     Take time out of your nightly walk to experience the power of red.  Stay classy, UNL.  We will always love you(and the Husker red glow).

Sincerely,
killa & barney

 

Day 38 Love Library

Dear UNL,

     Husker Nation, let's reminisce about the main library here on UNL's campus.  Love library.  The library in question is one of the many surprises.

     First of all, in order to find your way around Love Library, one would need a Marauder's Map, courtesy of Harry Potter.  There are so many twists, turns, ups, downs, secret passageways and dead ends, I'm surprised we made it out alive.  Our sense of direction isn't always fantastic and spending enough time in the small rooms of many books, you might possibly lose all sense of direction.  But have no fear, just walk out, keep your right hand on the wall, & you'll find your way out eventually.

     Secondly, there are many different books in the Library!  Yes, we know you are sitting there saying "DUH! Of course there are alot of books at the LIBRARY! " But bare with us.  Spend enough time in the somewhat scary rooms, where the shelving units seem to squeeze closer and closer as you mosey your way further into the recesses of the underbelly of the library, and you'll understand.  There are volumes upon volumes of old and current magazine's such as Reader's Digest, Time, and Life.  Magazines from as early as the 1860's.  It's holding a piece of history!  How awesome is that?!  We think it's pretty awesome.

     Thirdly, we are pretty sure that Moaning Myrtle lives in the women's bathroom in the basement of Love Library.  We are not even kidding.  We're so for real it's ridiculous.  So ridiculous, it's for real.  What other explanation is there when you are standing at the sink, no where near the toilets and a toilet at the opposite end of the bathroom flushes, and no one walks out.  Obviously Moaning Myrtle.  There's no other explanation.

     So, students, take an adventure.  Maybe even get a little lost and discover a bit of history while you're at it.  Stay classy, UNL.  We will always love you(and fear getting lost).

Sincerely,
killa & barney

Day 37-Stairs that Lead Nowhere

Dear UNL,

We are the stairs that don't lead anywhere, 

we just lead you down to a dead end.  

If you ask us, why we don't lead anywhere, 

We'll just tell you, we don't lead to anywhere.

well I've never led to Greenland


and I've never led to Denver


I've never led to treasure in ST Louie or ST Paul


and I've never led to Moscow


and I've never led to Tampa


and I've never led to Boston in the fall

We are the stairs that don't lead anywhere, 

we just lead you down to a dead end.  

If you ask us, why we don't lead anywhere, 

We'll just tell you, we don't lead to anywhere.

and I've never tripped a student

and I've never swabbed the landing

and I've never veered to the right, because I don’t go anywhere at all

and I've never been a gang plank

and I've never owned a teacher

and I've never led to Boston in the fall

We are the stairs that don't lead anywhere, 

we just lead you down to a dead end.  

If you ask us, why we don't lead anywhere, 

We'll just tell you, we don't lead to anywhere.

I've never plucked a rooster

and I am not too good at ping-pong

and I've never thrown my mashed potatoes up against the wall

and I've never kissed a Husker,

and I've never gotten head lice

and I have never led to Boston in the fall

We are the stairs that don't lead anywhere, 

we just lead you down to a dead end.   

If you ask us, why we don't lead anywhere, 

We'll just tell you, we don't lead to anywhere.  

and I've never licked a football

and I've always sniffed a stinky shoe

and I've never painted Daisies on a big red rubber ball

and I've never bathed in anything

and I don't look good in leggings

and I've never led to Boston in the fall

We are the stairs that don't lead anywhere, 

we just lead you down to a dead end.  

If you ask us, why we don't lead anywhere, 

We'll just tell you, we don't lead to anywhere.

We’d like to take this moment to thank Veggie Tales.  Students and professors alike, take time out of your day to sing silly songs with barney and killa.

Stay classy UNL, we will always love you!

Sincerely,

barney and killa

Day 36 - Children Left Unattended

Dear UNL, 

PLEASE DO NOT USE CITY CAMPUS AS YOUR CHILDREN BABYSITTING SERVICE.  TEACH THEM TO STAY AWAY FROM STRANGER'S CARS!  STRANGER DANGER DOES NOT MEAN "OOOO! CANDY! I SHOULD JUMP IN THE CAR AND EAT IT!"

Please parents, please. DO NOT leave your little boy (or any children to be exact....we don't want to discriminate) children unattended around Memorial Stadium.

Stay classy UNL, by not expecting us to babysit your children.

Sincerely, 

barney & killa

Day 35-Nike Shocks Guy

Dear UNL,

     Here on campus there is this certain person.  This person wears HUMUNGO Nike Shock shoes.  The reason we are bringing this up is because everywhere we go.... we notice these shoe prints.  IN THE EXACT SAME PATH WE ARE TAKING!   Now we aren't sure if this is a guy or a girl.  But we think it must be a guy since the shoes are so HUGE!

And by huge, we don't just mean belonging to your average football player, or basketball star.  No....we are referring to none other than the BIGFOOT of nike shocks at UNL.  He gives us great amusement and entertainment.  killa gets to watch as barney makes a fool of themselves and attempts to walk in bigfoot's "footprints".   However, this only works in the snow...and barney imagines the footprints in the summer sometimes.....we are a bit concerned.

We wish we knew who left these footprints.  Sometimes, during class or walking on campus, barney finds themselves looking at anyone who wears Nike Shocks and measuring up to the footprints.  But, alas.  we have yet to find Bigfoot.  

If you ever happen to find this person, please contact us at dearunl.blogspot.com.  There will be a reward.

Stay classy UNL, we will always love you!

Sincerely, 

barney and killa

Day 34 - Man on Sidewalk

Dear UNL, 

As we were wandering into the city campus union one afternoon, we discovered a very special man.  His name? Bartholomew.  He was last seen on one specific cement block outside the union....and will probably still be there.  He is dressed head to toe in black....including his skin.  He has no feet, or fingers, and is missing a neck.  If you see him, please let us know.  We would like to add him to our work team.

Thanks ever so much!  Stay classy, UNL.  We will always love you(and look for Bartholomew).

Sincerely,

barney & killa
