Proud members of Quote of the Week,Lend me your ears! While much love may be passing through your minds on this day remember too the joy and wit of yesteryear, the greatest of which was chosen to be uttered by Julian: "Walks should be aneurisms of fun. I am so trademarking the phrase 'aneurisms of fun'"
Never fear, there is still more! This weeks nominees are:
* "Happy Commercialism Day! Not to be confused with Consumerism Day, which is Christmas." - Andrea Lam, on valentines
* "These eight-year-olds are awfully simplistic in their Constitutional analysis." - Max, on the speakers at a pro-gay marriage forum for kids
* "Remember, the point of parent teacher conferences is NOT to have parents walk in, and then tell them 'screw you!'" - Ms. Das
* "Do I ask you personal questions about detailed aspects of you anatomy?" - Mr. Davis, to me after I asked what was wrong with his finger
* "He goes into a Puerto Rican district and calls out 'Maria,' and only one head pops up?!" - Someone in Daniel's "West Side Story" cast, complaining about the balcony scene from said musical

The deadline for voting is Friday at 6pm. That's Friday, the 20th, 2004 the year of someone else's lord, at 6 after noon Eastern Standard Time, Earth. If thou hast forgotten how to vote, point your monocle at http://www.qotw.net/~qotw/howtovote.html It is always important to vote; otherwise something horrible could happen. I don't know what, but it would be bad. Um, ya... bad. Where was I?
Yes! There are still more quotes to be had. If you sign up for the Honorable Mentions email you will receive twice, thrice, um, what comes after thrice, the quoting pleasure. Just sent a message to qotw@qotw.net saying that you would like to subscribe and you will receive the gratification that your quote gland requires.
Enjoy!
