I always get a kick out it when I see places I know in the news.  I like it even more when it is the odd news (when seems to happen more often…not sure what that says about me).  I was in Champaign a few weeks ago visiting family and on the way to my sister’s apartment (she goes to the U of I) we passed this new tower that is being built. 

Recently some students got together for a fun prank.  They were undoubtedly a little dorky because it was a Lord of the Rings themed prank.  They climbed the tower at night and installed a giant eye of Sauron (the bad guy).  Nice.
