Out with a Flash
Yeah, while attempting to make final tweaks to our research papers, Jerri and I came up with some great senior pranks. With the help of our very cool friends, we pulled them off quite well.

Senior Spasm
Last day to polish research paper. Last drive to classes. Last time seeing everybody together in the place that has become familiar over four years of high school. Last whiff of the study hall stench. Last chance to leave a mark behind. Last opportunity to make somebody laugh with improv. Last day to drive on time to the place with a…

You want what‽
It’s surprising the things people come into CompUSA to find. Like office supplies, when there is a Staples store in every shopping center nearby, including ours. Sorry but we sell technology, not machinery. Yesterday a fellow wanted to buy a dot-matrix printer. Most people don’t even know what that is, not to mention having a use for one. He…
