S2*8 Best Fad Worst Fad Rollerblades Those of us who had traumatic roller-skating experiences during childhood refuse to even discuss rollerblading. Best Slang "Fresh" "Fresh" won, but at the Daily we prefer to use the term "first- year." Worst Slang "Dude" Are the voters making a linguistic or a political statement? Best Thing About Ann Arbor U-M Diversity, people, women's power, and finally, dirt were other suggestions. (If you know what dirtless town thatlast vote came from, let us know.) Worst Thing About Ann Arbor Weather, Corey Dolgon, parking, protestors, Domino's Pizza, and "the Galleria shopping thing from Hell on South University." [Note: Bucky Farrow received a vote for both best and worst thing about Ann Arbor, and thus is ineligible to win either category. We can all agree, however, that although Bucky is something of a mixed blessing, he (or it) is a force which we can no longer afford to ignore.] Best Parking Place Nowhere Drivers would be well-advised to do as one voter recommends, and park in Ypsilanti. Best Place to Go When in An Altered State The Arb Oooh... man... lookit the trees... -0 Best "Best of Ann Arbor" Issue The Michigan Daily An easy victory, considering that our only competition was the Ann Arbor Metro Times. In case you don't read the Metro Times, which is very likely, its chief journalistic achievement is a hot & sleazy Romance ads section whose phone number is 96-CLASS. We are not making this up. We at Weekend are rather ticked off, since we've been doing a "Best of Ann Arbor" issue for nine years now. They say that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, but we were gratified to see that the students haven't taken their support elsewhere, since they overwhelmingly pronounced our version the superior one. We hate to admit it, but some of the big cheeses at the Metro Times I STUCK IN BURGER-TORY? Tired of Burgers?
