Is it my imagination or has it been Jon Scruggs' Birthday for quite a few days?
I'm guessing he is waiting for you guys to sing him happy birthday in his next class. :-P
The Random Events block is just that, Random. If there is an event that day it will display it throughout the day, but if there is no event, then it picks a random event in the future. I was trying to give hints that people can submit their birthday for the calendar. Well, anyway, later.
