Cricket infestation bugs Devine residents

There are many things students can expect to see in their room when they return from class or a meal. Three hundred crickets probably isn’t one of them.

“The Campaign” may be another cult classic. Every time I see a Will Ferrell movie, I always come away unimpressed. I hear the hype, I hear how funny all of his films are, and then I see them and I think “meh.” But the beauty about Will Ferrell movies is that they get better with more viewings.
