Kornered On Kampus

By Dana Schwehr

Well, after half my friends started hooking up with the person of their choice last week, | thought that something interesting must be hap- pening. So | started thinking about what sorts of things lead to two people becoming a couple. Alcohol was one of the first things that came to mind...but | really didn’t want to believe that everyone was making drunken errors of judgement. The next conclusion could be that it’s spring, which is when people

start thinking about love, blah, blah, blah...but it’s _ still

February, so | don't think that’s the reason.

The only other thing | could come up with after that was that someone had gotten a hold of some really good pick up lines. Since | hadn’t heard any really good ones lately, | thought the matter should be looked into. So, that brings us to the Question of the Week: What sort of pick up line would work on you? | had thought about ask- ing what your favorite pick up line to use was, but then | realized that there were a whole lot of lines out there that people might like to use, but wouldn’t be effec- tive. This way, | can help others to get results.

What sort of pick up line would work on ypuy

Leo

In your travels in the next week there will be many times when something seems like a good idea, but under no circum- stances get anything pierced or tattooed until you are fully sober.

Virgo

This week is an excellent time to experiment with the function of household items, like the wash- er and dryer or the vacuum.

Libra

Take a fire-extinguisher along with you this week. It may just come in handy (especially if you decide to go to that fondue you were invited to).

Scorpio

This is your week to be the boss. Pull yourself together, march down the hall and tell the bully next door that if he doesn’t Stop picking on you, you'll call his mommy.

Even though things aren’t going so well, they will begin to look up as your professors all realize you aren’t as dumb as they think you are and arbitrarily raise your grades.
