Guess October won't be as creepy this year.

After the taser incident at the Kerry speech, President Bernie Machen decided to postpone Dr. Jack Kevorkian's visit to the school.

Originally scheduled to speak Oct. 11, UF's date with doom is now set for Jan. 15.

Bernie says due to recent events, ACCENT and student government need to work on managerial issues for future guest speakers.

"While we all would like to see these matters resolved sooner rather than later, I believe we should allow adequate time to make any policy or protocol changes needed to ensure a safe and civil environment for full, free, diverse and lively discourse," Machen wrote in his e-mail.

Right, because putting off the event until January will prevent all the protesters. I'm sure the chilly weather is enough to deter any pro-lifers. Everybody knows they can't bitch in 30-degree temperatures. It's pro-choice supporters' hearts that are cold as ice. Duhhh.

On top of the postponement, UF had to pay a hefty $7,500 'inconvenience fee' to the doctor for the change in plans.

Well, just another reason to piss off all the anti-killing-old-people protesters.

Kevorkian was released early from jail due to his diabetes and Hepatitis C.  Pushing 80 years of age, let's hope he's still kicking in January, otherwise we'll have to call him Dr. Dead, not Dr. Death.
