<pre>Hello, dear subscribers. This will be a somewhat minimal email, as I need to get back to studying.
We've come to the end of the year! Last week's was our last regular email.
Our last weekly winner is Mr. Hodgkins, who warned chorus members about their graduation attire:
"Strapless is acceptable; topless is not."
The one thing we've got left to do is to choose the big winner: the Quote of the Year.
To that end, here are all of this year's weekly winners. Vote more or less as usual -- you can
just reply with your single favorite, you can rank all 26 (I think) of them, or you can do anything
in between. They're listed in chronological order, from earliest to latest.
Please be extra sure to specify which quote by a given person you're voting, and I'd encourage you
(more than usual) to vote for more than one or two or three people.
Oh, one more thing: there will be one last Honorable Mentions email sent out with the submissions
we received this week. We're done with regular emails for the year, guys. You can stop now...
Your choices:

Ms. Jackman: "It is if you're Russian."
Jon: "How come there is a book only about Half-Asians. That's so racist. Why aren't there books for
all ethnicities. Where's the book about Jews?"
Norton, pulling out from the shelves a book called "Auschwitz": "There's your book of Jews."
“Imagine impulsiveness was a cat. And then call it over—here, kitty, kitty -- and shoot it.”
- Larry, on what a student needs to do with her drawing
"'Flanting'?! I think we should make that a word. What should we have it mean? How about 'sexual

who are you? 'cause you're definitely that sexy guy I was talking to on the phone yesterday...'"
- Kailash, riffing in a state of post-midyear-exam loopyness on the claim that Italians only sound hot
"I suggest you run around the block once every hour. This will increase your circulation, including the
circulation to your brain."
- Mr. Davis
"I didn't mean to say to melt the pancakes, I meant cheese! Like, melt the butte- no, cheese, then-
yeah, there's got to be a better word than 'pancake' but I don't know it! ...shut up, I was trying to
explain tacos."

special awards, and get the very last email out.
Until then, good luck with finals.
