I was just wondering if Jessica went to Northwestern.
Heh - yep.
There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I don't recall my middle school colors, but elementary was red and white, which I just remembered thanks to the fight song ("three cheers for the Riveroaks Eagles, and for the good old red and white...") popping into my head. Why my elementary school needed a fight song I don't know.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I tend to dislike "school spirit" stuff. When I was in third grade we had a pep rally, when for some reason I popped a paper bag and briefly put it on my head. (I wasn't interrupting anything at the time.) The principal yelled at me, and then told everyone our grade would have won the school spirit award, but just because of me we didn't win it.
It wasn't hugely traumatic or anything - just annoying that the principal overreacted.

High school was red and black, panthers. College, the blue and grey--What's a Hoya? :)

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
heh, I went to a Jr college that was supposed to have the "chapparal bird " as the mascot but they shortened it to just "chapparal" so we were the fighting scrub-grass prairies.

I think my favorite school team name is the team in Funky Winkerbean - the Scapegoats.

which was still better than my junior high's green and gold.
A's!
HS: Red and Black for the Spartans. (Remember them?)
College: Purple and White for the Lords. (Girls teams: The Ladies! Fear them! Actually they won a lot of national titles in swimming.)

I have to go with the traditional favorites: the Banana Slugs. My local favorite is Oglethorpe's Stormy Petrels.
I never thought the Commodores really cut it as a team name.

A long time ago, my high school team name was the Pigeons (after the Pigeon River that flows through town). It was renamed The Truckers, because Clintonville is where the four-wheel-drive truck was invented, and they still make firetrucks there.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Heh. My high school was the Commodores. Green and white. I hated that school.
College, black and gold, the Underachievers. No, wait, that isn't right...
