The Australian Connection


Noah - the DU Bookstore's Stockroom Manager - and his wife have two children, named Adelaide and Sydney.  Curiously, these are the names of two well-known cities in Australia.  I asked Noah about this, and he claims it is just a coincidence, and that he didn't even think about it until he looked closely at the "World Map" shower curtain in his bathroom.  A shower curtain map with Australia on it?  Ah ha!  Another clue!  I suspect Noah and his wife have some sort of subliminal obsession about Australia, which will become clearer once little Darwin and little Melbourne (Mel for short) are born. In fact, I predict that one day Noah and his family will move to Australia, if they can find a city one of the kids isn't named after.  Perhaps Brisbane!

  1. Hey Dave! My friend in the ID card office said that you came in today. How are you? I am working for the College of Arts Humanities and Social Sciences now, and Sydney is graduating from high school on Tuesday!!!
