SHOWCASE: Ending - The Daily of the University of Washington

By Emily Lubinski
May 31, 2007

You've never lost a thing -

not a bus pass, coin, or baby.

You don't know what you have.

Let me tell you about regret.

There is no end, no beginning,

only time running circles

against itself

forming figure-eights

that you mistake

for infiniti.

This much

I know:

the smell of too much

done and not enough said,

the little "oh" turning over,

the swelling ache (it's coming)

time and time again.

Something is finally

breaking.

Why?

Our old comment system was abused to leave racist, sexist, fradulent, or simply useless comments. We're hoping this verification step will improve the quality of our comments.

I don't have a Facebook account. I'd like to verify my identity using my MySpace/Google/Yahoo!/OpenID/SSN/주민등록번호/MasterCard.

Let us know. We're open to suggestions. Over the next few weeks, we'll be testing other authentication methods.

The FBI/CIA/TSA/CoS/Emmert is out to get me! I need to stay anonymous!

We're working on a way to allow this. If you have any ideas, email us.

I think this website is ugly.

It's going to be a work in progress all summer, so it may look and act differently from week to week. If you want to influence this process, email us. We read every email, and respond to most of them.
