I have yet to see the construction of the new Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis, however, people are already starting to grumble about it costing too much money ($125 million) and will be too difficult to maintain financially afloat. While these are potentially real problems, I just have to wonder why no one brings these questions to the table before the construction process is nearly complete. I don't know, but I guess these things need not be considered in the world of art.

In any case, the overall design looks like it could add to the respectable Minneapolis skyline and thus should put all the patrons in awe before seeing a play. I am looking forward to having a chance to go see it when I make it back to Minnesota in June (the theater opens in June as well), thus I will be able to see it in all of its glory.

So one of my friends down here went to the Papa John's in our student center to get some buffalo wings. The student working told him that he can get five wings for $3.75 or individually for $0.50. So like everyone of Indian descent, he can do math pretty quick in his head and noticed a bit of a price discrepency. So my friend asked if he could get five wings individually, the woman said, "That'll be $3.75". Then he asked, "Could I get four instead?" The woman replied, "That will be $2.00"

Hmm. Let's think about that for a second. Why does the fifth wing cost $1.75? Sometimes it is just better to not ask questions, but we have decided to go back and see if we can go back and buy four wings and then after paying go right back and try to buy another individual wing and see what price they will charge. Now I'm not a management major, but that makes absolutely no sense.
