In Hasan’s bedroom

Last night, one thing led to another, and, like so many co-eds before me, I ended up above Woodruff’s, in the bedroom of Hasan O’Shea.* Fortunately, MarkMaynard.com cub reporter Patrick Elkins was on had to capture the excitement.

And, yeah, I drank too much. That’s what happens, I guess, when you run into Patrick at 6:00 and decide to head over to Powell’s for “one drink.” And, yeah, I know that I ruined Patrick’s interview by obsessing on the absence of damned light switches in Hasan’s room, but I couldn’t help myself. My OCD took over.

[*O’Shea in not Hasan’s real last name. If I used his real last name, though, this could be found my his family in Jordan.]

    can’t a guy get a nap? i am surprised how docile Hasan is; turning on the lights when sleeping would not have gone well with me….
    p.s. where does one get a dream TV?

    excellent guerrilla reporting. Ive often wondered what happens in that room considering im usually drugged by Hasan before getting dragged in there. Ive never been able to find the light switches either.

    Do not destroy this video. I think Hasan may have a good legal case against the both of you.

    I don’t know that we broke any laws. We were invited into the apartment by Hasan’s significant other, Andy Garris, and, before entering into the inner sanctum, we knocked and gave Hasan a few seconds to stop doing whatever he’d been doing, and pretend to be asleep. I think, legally speaking, we’re in the clear.

    Also, I didn’t mention it, but the new veggie corndogs on the menu at Woodruff’s are really good.

    And, if we did do anything illegal, I think it’s important to point out that Patrick entered first, and had a gun pointed at me the entire time.

    I always imagined Hasan sleeping naked on on the pelt of a polar bear, in front of a roaring fire.

    Substitute Charles Nelson Reilly for Tom Cruise and this would be a horrible scene from Rain man II.

    I imagine him sleeping on a tear-stained pillow, sobbing about Andy, surrounded by empty fudge boxes and candy wrappers.

    Hasan paid Mark to do this. The whole thing was scripted. He just wants people talking about his bedroom and what takes place there. It’s all part of his plan to seduce every woman between the ages of 18 and 57 in Ypsilanti.

    You’re use of the adjective “lil'” could not be more appropriate.
