E-Letter From the E-Editors
Dearest E-Pennizens,

Our deepest apolopgies for depriving you of your rightful electronic dose of First Call for the last few weeks. We've been having serious trouble with our hosting, and most recently they simply reset our account altogether. So, we were able to replace all the webpages, but any and every comment and blog post from the last two years has been lost into the ether. Sorry to all of you who've commented and given us feedback on the site (especially Benny's mom) -- we loved it all, and we'll recover what we can.

So for now, we've got our main site back together and rolling once again. Look for a new-and-improved First Blog to come back (again) after winter break. Seriously, ain't this the Re-Re-Re-Introduction by now? This should keep us going for now, but we have big plans for firstcallmagazine.com, so keep your eyes peeled. We might have had some trouble, but we've got a few tricks up our collective sleeves.

Love,

The E-First Call E-Editors

Digital Amnesia: A Dead Hard Drive Does Not Mean the End of the World
Valeria Tsygankova
My computer crashed last week from a severely decrepit hard drive. All I had backed up at the time were a few pieces of writing that I had considered worth saving in case something happened. Ever since, I’ve had to use the computers in the Gregory computer lab—a small, smelly room with cinderblock walls. I’m writing this piece there now.

We Were Bored
One Penn Dude
It started because we were bored.  No other reason.  We tried growing facial hair first  I think everyone does that  but it didn’t do too much for us.  “It’ll be a vacation from yourselves,” someone told us.  But it wasn’t true.
