The James Logan Courier

MISCELLANEOUS

Hallways at Lunch: Students, the 60s and 70s hallways are closed during lunch time. Because of disruption to instruction and learning, students are requested to not use the hallways during lunch. Please make sure you exit the hallways as quickly as possible and do not use the 60s and 70s hallways during lunch. The 80s hallway is open every day if you’d like to go to the other side!

The senior class of 2012 was a class divided between dressing traditionally and appropriately for Spirit Week.

Wednesday was originally supposed be toga day, a Spirit Week tradition for Logan seniors, but it was replaced this year by CEO day because some teachers and administrators deemed it inappropriate.

Monique Walton, the activities director, said, "I didn't want Logan students to come to school dressed in just sheets, or worse, nothing."

If you've ever traveled down Van Ness Avenue to get to the Golden Gate Bridge, you may have noticed a rather ostentatiously painted eating establishment on the corner of Geary and Van Ness called Tommy's Joynt.

This week, I finally got a chance to stop in when I attended an event nearby with a friend.

My friend and I had wandered the nearby neighborhood south of Van Ness, an area we were unfamiliar with, looking for a place to eat before the event began. Not wanting Thai food - there are several Thai restaurants in the area - and eschewing chowing down in the more seedy, scary establishments, we were despairing of eating at all before we spotted Tommy's Joynt a couple of blocks away. It's hard to miss with the bright paint job and the rather large red "The Original Tommy's Joynt" wrapping around the building.

Santa Clara's Great America amusement park has undergone a temporary makeover, pumping up the scary with mazes and haunted houses to augment the usual assortment of thrill rides.

There are so many added attractions that I was only able to go through three of the six mazes.

From wikipedia:
William McKendree Carleton (21 October 1845 – 18 December 1912) was an American poet. Carleton's poems were most often about his rural life.

Born in rural Lenawee County, Hudson, Michigan, Carleton was the fifth child of John Hancock and Celeste (Smith) Carleton. In 1869, he graduated from Hillsdale College and delivered on that occasion the poem, Rifts in the Cloud.
