CRAIG CONLEY (Prof. Oddfellow) is recognized by Encarta as “America’s most creative and diligent scholar of letters, words and punctuation.” He has been called a “language fanatic” by Page Six gossip columnist Cindy Adams, a “cult hero” by Publisher’s Weekly, a “monk for the modern age” by George Parker, and “a true Renaissance man of the modern era, diving headfirst into comprehensive, open-minded study of realms obscured or merely obscure” by Clint Marsh. An eccentric scholar, Conley’s ideas are often decades ahead of their time. He invented the concept of the “virtual pet” in 1980, fifteen years before the debut of the popular “Tamagotchi” in Japan. His virtual pet, actually a rare flower, still thrives and has reached an incomprehensible size. Conley’s website is OneLetterWords.com.
I don't even know anyone at St. Joseph's, yet they all wish me (and you!) great success in all we undertake, and they envision a future for us filled with bright achievements. You know what? I wish the same back to everyone at St. Joseph's, whoever they are. From the St. Joseph's College yearbook of 1988.
"The pleasant books, that silently among our household treasures take familiar places, and are to us as if a living tongue spake from the printed leaves or pictured faces."
It's true that there are actually only two times -- "enough time" and "too late." When clocks are adjusted for daylight savings, "too late" springs forward. From Boston College's 1983 yearbook.
