News from Yankee Country North: Christian Lopez attended St. Lawrence University

That's right. The real Canton. The one between Richville and Norwood. The St. Lawrence County seat.

Not only that, but Christian Lopez met his girlfriend there. They partied in the Java Barn, cheered in the Black Box, groped between goals in the big annual hockey game against Clarkson, made snow angels on Mothers Day, froze their frikin toes off walking to class: A missing leg is practically an SLU diploma!

Thus, Christian Lopez replaces the tie between Kirk Douglas and Viggo Mortensen as Secondmost Important Alumnus of St. Lawrence University... after Grace Potter (minus the Nocturnals) pictured at right on wooden prosethics, after losing both legs to frostbite.

Congratulations, Christian!
