Hooray for the last day of school. Hoo. Ray. Until finals kick in, of course. But the promise of laborious three hour tests is of course not the most saddening characteristic of the last weeks in May. What you should be most concerned about is that a new Squelch won't reach your retinas until the first day of the Fall semester. Remember, humor is not a spectator sport. We want your talent. Are you funny? Do you have skills in Photoshop or InDesign? Are you good at selling ads to local vendors? Join the Squelch. Just email us at feedback@squelched.com, or contact me directly at rcbrown@berkeley.edu. I'd love you hear what my readers think were our outstanding displays of creativity during this past year. In the meantime, I'll offer you my own personal favorites: Best Features: 1. Kaiser Wilhelm, David Duman. (Issue 6) 2. Joel Stephenson, Simon Ganz. (5) 3. Hobbit Losers, Aaron Brownstein.
