When the Lady Saints left the court after a stunning 59-58 loss to Webber International in the conference tournament, changes were on the agenda. Just how big those changes would be was not a certainty.
Then in March came word that coach Craig Douglass was leaving the team after two years as coach. The Lady Saints were 23-34 under Douglass under performing at times and not being able to put all their talent together.
It dawned on me today that the summer is almost gone. Although it’s hard to believe from the scorching temperatures outside. But in a matter of weeks Flagler’s campus will once again be crawling with 2,000+ students like a gigantic ant farm, but with cars.
But what is really amazing is what has been accomplished this summer. For one thing, I took up running. And let me tell you that is astounding in and of itself. In the process, I even managed to drop a few pounds. But more importantly, and perhaps more relevant to a blog for the Gargoyle online, we embarked on a complete redesign of the print edition of the Gargoyle – something that has never truly been done in the paper’s more than 35-year history.

Brunet-GarcÃa Multicultural Advertising & PR, North Florida’s largest Hispanic advertising agency, announced today that it has created a $1,500 scholarship for minority graphic design students at St. Augustine’s Flagler College.
Last night in a fit of nostalgia, I found myself watching Legends of the Hidden Temple on Nick GAS (Gotta love digital cable and its complete randomness of a lineup.) and something occurred to me that never had before – that was the hardest freaking game show ever!
Seriously, it makes the rigorous “answer in the form of a question” Jeopardy! format look like a cake walk.

Flagler College announced Monday it has agreed to purchase the Florida East Coast Industries (FECI) headquarters buildings in downtown St. Augustine when the company vacates them later this year.
College President William T. Abare, Jr. says Flagler has no definite plans for the use of the facility yet, but it is expected the buildings could serve as dorms, or even classrooms and offices. The buildings are actually three connected towers that have become a landmark on the corner of King and Malaga streets on the western entrance of St. Augustine.

Everyone I work with is either getting married or having kids. And I mean everyone. (Just work with me here. I’m exaggerating for dramatic effect.)
Seriously though, in the last three weeks, no less than three couples have gotten hitched and more are planning to tie the knot yet this year.
