I know most of you ahve already seen this but this is much longer and
funnier than the old one. I don't understand the BU one--maybe that's
where the humor lies. I particularly appreciate the Tufts one (Ruby and
Pransy--aren't you guys glad I didn't go there--not like it was a choic
or anything--but I would probably have turned into the stuck up 5 townser
who some unnamed Hewlett girls seem to think I am--I'd be a Tufts icky
sorority girl--opps, sorry D). Anyway, Lauren, think of Keith when you
read the BC one and tell me he isn't the white baseball cap wearing plaid
flannel shirt wearing freak I say he is. Anyway, wnough of me...enjoy
guys...
MWAAAAHHHHH!
