Facebook Friends: Dan - Daniel

Dan Glynn
Dan Glynn is my unofficial bright-blonde cousin who makes a chili that I try to beat out every year at his annual chili cook-off. One of these days, Dan!!!! He's also one of the nicest guys you'd want to adopt as a relative.


Danielle Stewart
When I say things like " I love the people I work with!," Danielle is included in that lot. She has a big brain in which she stores everything that's going on anywhere and everywhere in the Science Center. She knows EVERYONE and she is so supportive. I can always count on her to know someone's name when I don't, to remind me to do something that she asked me to do five minutes earlier that I've already forgotten about, and to tell me what book to read next. She's a very important cog in the gears that make that place function and she is forbidden to ever leave us.

Danielle Thompson Sowers
Oh, how I loved Danielle when we were cheerleaders together! (For that one semester) We got along so easily. She's a sunny and positive person who couldn't make an enemy if she tried. I can't be sure, but once when I was facebook investigating her I gathered that she now does something with fashion, although, I can't find evidence of it now. Danielle, you should probably take me on as a charity case. And PS - you live right near me!


Daniel Lough
I went to college with Dan. We were both art majors. He took me to my first formal Fraternity puke-fest. I once went to his parents house and ate half a jar of olives stuffed with blue cheese and made myself sick. About an hour after that I ran my car into an icy ditch and he had to come rescue me. We once had an art show along with Katie O'Malley and while his talent astounds me, his pornographic subject matter seemed somewhat inappropriate for a small town winery. What can I say? I'm a prude.

Daniel Price
I never went to summer camp, but I have gone to the same resort on the same island for one week every summer since I was 3. Danny has the same exact tradition. For one week a year we're family. Our parents are besties. Most of my fondest memories of Danny involve him cheating at cards, stuffing me in a dryer or pushing me into a pool - and not just when we were kids. I didn't have an older brother to pick on me, and he filled that void. Danny has a dead-pan sense of humor that I wish I could get away with and a laugh you can't help catching. Some of his favorite pastimes, as far as I can tell, are throwing children, eating, and getting a good sunburn.

Facebook Friends: Coryn - Dana

Coryn York
Cory is a beautiful girl with perfect eyebrows that I feel was born in the wrong decade. She should have been a flower child. I picture her natural environment to be a muddy music festival that she arrived at via hitchhiking.

Courtney Holtmeyer
Courtney, no matter how many kids you have or how much older you get, you'll always be Tim Leake's sweet kid sister to me.

Craig Markus
This once skinny, funny and slightly awkward teenager must have gone off and cocooned hisself sometime after we graduated and come out a successful man-sized husband and father of three beautiful children–once again reminding me how truly far behind I am in the game of life. Thanks a lot, Craig!


Dana Harris Schultz
If I was a teenage boy, I would hope and pray that a girl like Dana would move in next door. Grace Kellyesque beauty, brains, and a sense of humor that keeps you on your toes with just enough weirdoness to be unintimidating. Way to be, Dana. Way to be!

Dana Johnson Cuneo
This gorgeous girl is always so well put together that she makes me feel homely when I show up to parties in my only pair of jeans (that fit) and my shirt-of-the-week. I'm always happy to see Dana. She's got such a sisterly quality, and not just because she is one.
