Dancer Update: Joel Kreider, Hour 3

Hailing from Lancaster, Pa., senior Joel Kreider earned his spot on the floor as an independent dancer. Only three hours into THON, Joel found it difficult to put his recent experiences into words. Expression became more difficult as Charles Millard approached the table we were standing at, stopping for a picture and a quick exchange. Here’s what Joel had to say:

“Tough to pick one thing to talk about at this point! I’ve already met the Bryan family from Lancaster, done the line dance twice and seen some of my best friends. I’m also four waters deep, by the way. Need to stay hydrated. At this point, I’m looking forward to getting some food the most, and playing with the kids! This weekend is off to an incredible start and it’s still sinking in that I’m DANCING IN THON.”

We will check in with Joel again soon, and hopefully he will have found his words.

Hailing from Lebanon, PA, I am a senior majoring in print journalism. Things I enjoy include lovesacs, denim, mullets, Fight Milk, Jonny Moseley, and "hang in there" kitten posters. Things that bother me include "fun" sized candy bars (not fun), fish, shoobies, wet door knobs, baby leashes, and Jake Lloyd.

Jim’s Army & Navy: The Greatest Store Ever

For those of you who have ventured onto the west side of Beaver Avenue, there is a good chance you have passed by Jim’s Army & Navy. If you are one of those people, your first thought when passing by Jim’s was most likely, “What the hell is going on in this store?” When a store’s window display boasts handcuffs (they even come in pink), switchblades, throwing stars, machetes, other swords, and ammunition, you really have no choice but to be utterly confounded. Little did I know that I was about to walk into the greatest store ever.
