| by Jill Vernon | 3/14/07 | 790 views | Renny Kane, positioned against a case of Clearance items at Happy Harry’s had tears streaming down his face. He was tasting the salt of a woeful liquid and running countless suicidal thoughts through his head. He would either kill himself by jumping off the new bridge that connects Laird Campus to Main Campus or he would take a bath with a toaster. Either way, he meant business.
Attempting to save his life, Jason and I decided to speak with him:
Jill: Renny, what are you doing here?
Renny: Trying to find a Red Bull.
Jill: Why?
Renny: I need the energy.
Jill: Why?
Renny: I’m low on energy. Are you writing stuff down different then what I am saying? You should, that would be funny.
Jill: OK.
Renny: Tic-tac-toe. A dog almost bit my leg off. Actually, it was just a puppy walking by.
Jill: (Offering him a different kind of energy drink) What about a Rock Star?
Renny: Rock Star’s not my game.
Jason, Who Likes to Interrupt Important Interviews: How often do you shave your beard?
Renny: As often as I feel like it.
Jill: What are you going to do now?
Renny: I’m debating finding a Red Bull and maybe going to East Campus to get one.
Jill: Do you like Mentos?
Renny: I’m Pro-Mentos...And I’m not Pro- most things.
After this conversation, we hoped that Renny’s suicidal thoughts would end, but we are not so sure. After all, he cannot find a Red Bull anywhere and his low self-esteem forces him to believe that he is not Rock Star material; however, he is a member of Stone City, a local band that has even made an appearance at the World Café in Philadelphia.
We leave Happy Harry’s, unsure of Renny’s next step. He is now presented with few options, none of which are too appealing. With his bike still sitting at Brew Haha, his inability to find a Red Bull at any local store and his insatiable sex drive, Renny is doomed to end his existence as many Rock Star’s do–with an overdose on some drug, a bullet through his head or a trip to a rehabilitation center.
Ladies and Gentlemen, Save Renny.
