•OF COURSE IT'S NATURAL MISCLASS-
The Rice University Virgins will be
meeting 7 pm Wednesday in SH 301.
No experience necessary.
***
Overheard near Sid: "Is the grass wet
or is it just me?"
***
Bagels and pizzas are certainly better
than all the women who still haven't
invited me to Esperanza!
Better stock up in the frozen food
section.
***
And for the winner of the "Come up
with a punch line" contest:
Q: How many heterosexuals does it
take to change a light bulb?
A: Five—one to screw and four to
shout "Oh dude! Fuckin' A!"
Dude, you gotta rally.
***
SFO (Students For Orgasms) will
meet Fridays at 7 pm in the Ley Stu-
dent Center. Come as you are or bring
a friend.
***
There once was a lady named Alice
Who used dynamite as a phallus.
They found her vagina
In South Carolina
And one of her titties in Dallas.
***
Q: How many Sid guys does it take to
change a light bulb?
A: None. For the price of a dinner they
get that and a hand job.
***
Quantum particles: the dreams that
stuff is made of.
***
SA(lami a)ND (ham) WI(th)
CH(eese)
***
This is only my opinion but I think
that vacuum cleaners suck.
***
Just to show we're not biased, a
Brown misclass:
Overheard from a Brown woman in
the commons: "I'm not satisfied!"
***
Q: Why are cucumbers, bagels, pizza
and beer all better than men?
A: The aforementioned don't feel
compelled to enter lame, unoriginal
misclass.
***
Q: How many Sid girls does it take
x
Rubes
to change a light bulb?
A: How many can you afford to
feed?
***
Dear Joyce,
God knows we could use some
pink flesh around here, but not in the
Swedish meatballs!
—Disgruntled at Sid
There's a shortage of pink flesh at
Sid?
***
Over heard between girls at Brown:
"There's a Campo looking for you.
He says he has your pants."
***
Overheard in Fondren:
"I can't suck on things for very
long—I have to bite them."
***
Overheard in Wiess:
"It's not leaking, you're just not
pushing hard enough."
***
Dear Wanting,
I'm half an inch under 6', and I no
longer take the time to be genuinely
athletic. Other than that, I'm your
man...or could be.
I like Dvorak, Dire Straits, Duke
Ellington, and much more. I love
small live concerts, cognac, stargaz-
ing, and skygazing. Especially on
180, with a boOtle of wine and good
company. Bedrooms with fireplaces,
John Stuart Mill, 13 and Campus
Crusade for Cthulhu, Marx, week-
ends in bed, Birra Poretti's house
pizza, backrubs (giving and getting),
tight black dresses (on women, that
is), sex, Rocky Horror, and sharing
the beauty of all around us.
I do hope to hear from you.
So, Wanting, we've got his name
and number at the Thresher office.
Interested? Any more eligible men
out there?
***
Who said defense isn't fun?
***
The Ultimate Sid Girl Dilemma:
Should she use the last ounce of per-
oxide to treat her post-sexual wounds
or. save it to bleach her hair in the
morning?
***
The misclass is only as good as your
submissions, and your submissions
are only good before 5 pm on Mon.
