girl　it？s　rumored　he？s　been　betrothed　to　since　he　was　a　wee　lad？　Or　will　he　marry　her；　leavingB　in

the　lurch？　At　least　she　can　drive　off　into　the　sunset　in　her　new；　adorable；　bisque…colored

convertible　Beamer。　Did　you　see　it　parked　outside　Brick　Church？　Imported　directly　from　the

Continent。　No　one？and　I　mean　no　one？in　this　country　has　that　car。

the　medical　school？s　psychiatric　division。　Like；　they？re　going　to　give　him　all　these　mind…altering

drugs　that　they？re　trying　out；　and　they　even　pay　him　to　take　them。

They　finally　caught　on

Almost　all　the　private　schools　in　Manhattan　have　finally　figured　it　out：　Seniors　don？t　want　to

take　final　exams　or　sit　in　class　the　last　month　of　school；　nor　do　they　need　to；　since　they？ve　already

been　accepted　at　college　and　are　so　mentally　spent　by　then；　they　can？t　possibly　learn　anything　new。

So；　starting　next　year；　seniors　will　only　have　to　go　to　class　until　the　middle　of　May。　They？ll　finish

up　the　year　by　doing　an　internship　of　their　choice　anywhere　in　the　city。　Sounds　pretty　cool；　huh？

Too　bad　none　ofus　got　to　do　it。　I　could　have　？interned？　with　an　online　news　column　and　？gone　to

work？　in　bed　in　my　favorite　black　cotton　DKNY　intimates　nightgown。　Not　that　I？m　bitter。　After

all；I？ve　already　graduated！！！！
