UNIVERSITY PARK, PA-- Mark Johnson (freshman - DUS) had to spend Saturday night sleeping in the Tenor Hall study lounge because he claims that his roommate Luke Drysdale (freshman - DUS) locked him out of their room.

             Drysdale and his girlfriend, Nancy Liverply, have been dating since their senior year of high school. Unfortunately Liverply attends a local community college in their hometown of Richmond, Virginia, while Drysdale is studying in Penn State.

             “I know in my heart that Mark doesn’t fool around with other girls while I’m away in Virginia,” commented Nancy, “Even though he is a super sexy looking guy and I’m still a virgin, I’m sure he saves all his affections for me.”

             Despite the seven hour drive, their relationship has been flourishing thanks in part to ICQ and the internet phone. However, their romantic relationship has caused some dissension between the two roommates.

             “I hate that bitch,” stated Johnson, “I can’t sleep at night as Luke is always on the computer typing his little love messages to his high school girlfriend on the internet phone. Every night it’s I love you this, I love the sound of your voice, oh I missed you so much. It’s enough to make you want to hurl.”

             During the week, Drysdale had been hinting that he needed some private time Saturday night.

             “I suggested that my roommate to go to a frat party Saturday and come home about 3AM giving me some quality alone time with my sweetheart,” Drysdale explained, “However, it was almost midnight and he still hadn’t left. I was upset so I had to think of something”

             “I stepped out of the room for a minute, but when I returned from brushing my teeth our door was locked,” said an irate Johnson, “I figured Luke and his Marge were in the room hiding from me so I pounded on the door for about 10 minutes. In the end though I just gave up and slept on the couch in the study lounge.”

             “Oh, me and my honey pie Nancy left the room at midnight,” said a straight-faced Johnson, “I can only imagine how my stupid roommate locked himself out of his own room.”

             Johnson is requesting a room change before Nancy’s next visit to the East Hall’s dormitory, slated for late March.
