April 20, 2003: Honorable Mentions

Sorry these are so late. I had to wait to see who wanted to be on this list. (Only the cool people did.)

HONORABLE MENTIONS
"Alligators and LSD just don't splice." -Jason
"Just because it tastes like cardboard doesn't mean it's bad." -Dewey, on trail mix
"I am The Implied Relativist." -Jeff Kaufman
"I would get a lot of pleasure out of torturing Will." -Irene
"Wait! The twos always come in pairs!" -Josh, in short story class
"Do we have to get into THAT?" -Kominsky, in response to Kate's question about what the story means
"Mr. Davis, we don't have lice and you don't have hair." -Joanna, on why Mr. Davis should not be afraid to wear his hat after it was passed around Short Story class
"It's not a real vacation. It's a metaphor or something." -Kate, in short story class
"The CIA has been at work." -Mr. Davis, on the school's lack of Russian dictionary
"Pascua es casi lo mejor de la religion Cristiano." -Frederique (translation: "Easter is almost the best thing about the Christian religion.")
"So is the central conceit of this book that all men are scum?" -Alex, on Their Eyes Were Watching God (yes, this prompted Roz's nominated quote this week).

And since you're all such good little voters, I'll tell you now: the winner this week was...

"That's because in 1942 the British Government discontinued the singing orphan program." -Julian, on the lack of songs like 'Food' from the musical Oliver

-Ben "these are honorable mentions because I didn't like them as much as the nominees, so don't come crying to me if you like them better than the winner, kid; I'm a dictator, not a public servant" Orlin
