Talking Your Way Out of College
(Part II)
College applications are the first practical test of an admissions
officer's mettle. Miami University of Ohio sent out a form with
blanks for "Last name, first, middle, maiden." Charles R. Schuler
remembers the female applicant who responded: "Smith, Barbara, Ann,
yes."

jtkohl (John T Kohl):
I must be crazy, but I'm (again!) driving down to the Philadelphia area
on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving (but I'm returning on Saturday, to
avoid traffic).

To George Bush, Dan Quayle, and the rest of the GOP:
---------------------------------------------------
Some folks are born, made to wave the flag.
Hooo, they're red, white, and blue.
And when the band plays "Hail to the Chief,"
Ooo, they point the cannon and you and yours.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no senator's son son.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no fortunate one, no.
Some folks are born, silver spoon in hand.
Lord, don't they help themselves.
But when the taxman comes to the door,
Lord, the house look-a-like a rummage sale, yeah.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no millionaire's son, no no.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no fortunate one, no.
Some folks inherit star-spangled eyes,
Hooo, they'll send you down to war.
And when you ask'em, "How much should we give?"
They only answer, "More, more, more."
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no military son son.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no fortunate son, no.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no fortunate one, no.
It ain't me, it ain't me.
I ain't no fortunate son, no.
