(not by me): Don't listen to Xxxx when he says that I have the hots for you -- it may be true, but don't listen to him anyway. Every year the ROTC here on campus has a formal called the military ball. Although I already asked somebody to go, and this might not be the most tactful thing to do, I think she might say no (strong possibility) and if she does would you like to go? I promise to behave (if you do), I will not wipe my mouth with the tablecloth, and promise to maintain witty and slightly intelligent dinner conversation. I will formally ask you when I get this other girl's answer. Oh, yes. You will be expected to look ravishing and smile alot, and perhaps supply a goodnight kiss. --------------------------------------------
