First let me say that I seriously considered writing this entire post in the color of the background so you would have to highlight it to see it. Instead I decided text was silent enough already...consider yourself lucky. This past Friday, I and many other IA students participated in the annual
Day of Silence. Please read the aforelinked Wikipedia article if you don't know what that means. It was a great experience and for a great cause; I encourage you to participate next year if you get the chance. IA's GSWA (Gay-Straight-Whatever Alliance) handed out stickers to wear, advising others that one was participating. Sadly they ran out of them before I arrived, but Marie got there in time to get one.
As you may remember, Marie is a fairly religious person. Her entire church, however, participates in the Day of Silence; they even have a silent service that evening. In her own note-passing, "Not all Christians are confused." Anyway, she happened to have a copy of the bible in her backpack, which she decided would be an excellent place to keep the DoS sticker.

I decided to take another picture, as the sticker in the first one wasn't straight. At the time, the pun was totally
not intended.
