We foresee Marigirl to have a kind of a dream job where she can combine her passions. Also the runners-up (other than that one choice with potential for creepiness) would be good alternatives.
Wil is next. I feel sorry for poor Wil, 'cause if my passion were for poetry instead of math I could easily find myself in a similar predicament. The alternatives are mostly cruel. Sorry squared. After Wil, we'll have either Tai or Dora. I haven't made up my mind, yet.
Skewbrow:
The "rip off" poll on Wil will run for 24 some hours more(backlog of work). At the moment it looks like Tennyson and Dora fight for the top spot with Carl-E ahead of Douglas Adams in the battle for the third place.
Next poll will be on advice we would like to give to Dora. How to make CoD even better? What kind of contingency plans would we like to suggest?
DSL:
Pick-up line contest. Hanners is judge. Winner gets ... extra abuse?

What, no Jimbo? I can see the collaboration even now, on an expanded edition of "Quiddich Field Idyll."
