[QOTW] QotW 11 December 2005

[Quote of the Week]

Dearest darling QotWers,

I'm writing this e-mail from school, where we have been stuck since the
blizzard started during seventh period on Friday. One of the teachers
ventured outside for help Friday evening, but was swallowed up by the
storm and hasn't been seen since. We've already eaten what supplies were
in the kitchen--library cards are very useful lockpicks--and the freshmen
are currently holding a lottery to see which one of them we're having for
dinner. Oh, God; I can hear them coming...

This portion of the QotW e-mail was brought to you by the letter 'S' and
the New Blair Witch Project.

Because New York had no Internet last Sunday, there was no QotW e-mail.
Alas! (Barbarians.) But here's the winning quote anyway:

'No need for a bag. I'm opening this baby up as soon as I get home.
*cackles*' -- A mysterious-looking woman at Cardullo's, hefting a large
bottle of what appeared to be vinegar.

Thank you, mysterious-looking woman at Cardullo's. And now, the nomininnies!

'It's a red shirt, which as a Trekkie I'm slightly afraid of wearing. If I
wind up dyng at the beginning of the episode to establish the threat, know
 that my last thoughts were of you.' -- Alex George, to Joanna Rifkin (In
Star Trek, an unfamiliar red-shirted ensign often appears only long enough
to die and establish the threat.)

Schofield, in Funds
