Among the hardcore Nick community, we like Episode IV the best. But us Nicks are pretty warped.
Funny anecdote: One day at SAT prep (the only time I went to the verbal class because I realized what a waste of time it was), the teacher was telling us how to parse words to figure out their meaning. (Of course, she didn't use so technical a term as "parse." She called it "breaking down" or something like that.) You know, divide a word into parts that look familiar. The example word she chose was iconoclast. She asked, figuring that nobody would be familiar with the word, if any of us knew what it meant. I raised my hand; no one else did. She looked around the room and said, "Anyone besides him? No? Okay, so my point was..."
It was funny. And I'm a snob. Heh. :)
I promised that I'd do more Bivalvia in Ten Years, and I will, as soon as I get in contact with my muse again.

You see this post. You are a senior. You immediately send Tara and email and/or verbally respond to her answering the following questions.
Are you
Going to Prom?
Going to Post Prom? (at my house)
Going to be bringing any non-bivalve (someone I wouldn't think to call or talk to) to post prom?
Going to Beach week?
And...
Do you have a car that can be brought to beach week, or a parent willing to drive.
If so, how many will it seat.
Please don't assume I will know the answers to these questions already, because I won't remember or automatically know everything (though as a general rule, its okay to assume I'm all knowing and all powerful). Thanks all who respond to this, threats of death to all who don't.
Oh and, the email is Smiletara@aol.com.
