Bad Religion guy is at UCLA? That's too bad. A few days after I arrived at Cornell someone told me that the singer from Bad Religion could be seen around the Ithaca Commons area pretty frequently, which was pretty exciting until I remembered I don't like Bad Religion and I have no idea what he looks like.

he was around from time to time...would occasionally see shows, hang about
