The Chron did an amusing (albeit fluffy) wrap-up of Cal Day, complete with an overheating Oski and a smidgen of Finnish. We, on the other hand, missed out on the marine animals we had heard about. What’s more, the best book we found at the library sale was “How Stella Got Her Groove Back,” though that was to be expected. The Chron obviously had a better time than we did.

And so did Stephen Chen:

Daily Californian editor in chief Stephen Chen, 22, said Cal Day often will sway high school students admitted to several colleges and torn about where to go.

“I tell them there’s so much more diversity and acceptance here,” Chen said. “UCLA might have cleaner buildings, but you can’t really beat Berkeley’s character.”

We think he means this kind of character.

As Beetle pointed out on Tuesday, Daily Cal’s Editor-in-Chief Stephen Chen now has a blog. No, it’s not on LiveJournal. It’s real, complete with a link on the Daily Cal homepage.

Beetle tentatively titles the blog “Dlog,” presumably as a portmanteau of Daily (Californian) and blog. We could see it as the Edlog, Elog or Chlog. No, wait, we have it …

The Slog. Almost as good as the Clog, right?

Right now, the chief has two posts up, and you can expect weekly episodes of DC decision making.

Beetle says of the blog: “It’s a good move, though only if it really is willing to discuss the Daily Cal’s difficult decisions, rather than just the easy ones.”

And that really won’t be a problem. At the Daily Cal, you don’t decide easy decisions–easy decisions decide you.

We don’t know what that means at all.
