editor's note
Jayplay.
Jayplay. Urban Dictionary. com says it's a verb
for a not-so-refined activity.A Google search lists Jayplay as a touring harmon ica player as well as a 26-year-old male on MySpace with fondness for French techno music.
But for our purposes here at the University of Kansas, Joayl is your weekly lifestyle and culture magazine, and we'll be nestled in your Kansan
every Thursday with the latest in relationships, health, nightlife, trends, music and all things relevant to the life of a student in Lawrence in 2008.
We're thrilled we get to spend the semester with you, and as you set out to define yourself on campus, in the community and in the world, we'll be here doing everything we can to keep you current with information you can use and with stories that matter to you
In this issue, we've got the lowdown on life with a roommate, sex and relationship advice in our Bitch and Moan
column, movie and music reviews, and plenty of other stories we hope will tickle your curiosity.
*Joyplay* is a magazine made entirely by KU students, for KU students. *Joyplay* is your trusty companion through what's sure to be an exciting semester as a jayhawk. In short, *Joyplay* is about life. And how to have one.
Let's hope Webster's chooses our definition over Urban Dictionary's.
ja*y play (noun)—Life. And how to have one.
