Are you one of those
clue-less ihdividuals who
can get a date, but has no
idea what to do when you
get one? Or are you one of
the crowd that perpetually
inhabits the lobby of MA
Hall for lack of anything
better to do? Well, you
hopeless dweeb, let me
offer a few suggestions:
If you're thinking about
a movie, but you've either
seen everything or don't
care to see what you
haven't, check out the
Cinematuque feature at
Beaucatcher. They have
some very nice, semi-artsy
foreign, and relatively
undiscovered American
films, and it only costs
$3.00
How about a play?
Tonight in Morganton
there's "Big River"
(Huckleberry Finn). For
general info, call 437-8863.

Asheville there's "Children
of a Lesser God"

culture, violinist Joshua Bell

boredom watching the
Smurfs with your four year
old sister? Well, wherever
you are, there must be
something better to do.

Patrick's day parades and
festivals all over the place.

Dear Lady
Dear Lady,
I'm at the end of my
rope; and I want to use it to
bang my roommate! Evety
single time I have food in
the room no matter what it is
or where it is my roommate
finds it and eats it. Should I
just up ahead and buy stock
in Ingles or what? Thanks ,
Can't Find a Cmmb
Dear Crumb,
There are a few options
for you:
1. Buy mouse traps to guard
your stash.
2. Go on a fast and maybe
your roomie will catch a
clue.
3. Invest in a refrigerated
safe.
Sincerely, Lady
Dear Lady,
Roommate Trouble- I
could write the book on it.
How about this -1 live with
the anal retentive roommate
of the world. Too
organized and neat for
words. Once they told me I
couldn't go outside of the
room to class even until I
cleaned my side of the room
to their satisfaction - I left
my parents at home! What
should I do? Help!
Anti-Mr. Clean.
Dear Anti-Clean,
You do need help or a
maid for your sake. Here is
an idea. Go into your
room, organize all your
stuff and de-organize all
their stuff and leave. You'll
come back later to find your
roomie going crazy. Pay
Back! Keep this up till they
just give up any hope for
order in their life.
Lady
Dear Lady,
I never thought I could
complain about my
boyfriend, but I now see I
can. He's just too sweet to
me, I mean it- too sweet!!
I'm getting ill from kindness
overdoses. How can I get
him to ditch the greeting
card sentiments?
I need a Lemon
Dear Lemon,
This sounds mean but it
will get the point across, I
hope for your own peace of
mind. When he comes to
see you, come down
looking wretched, I mean
major fashion risk, then ask
him how you look.
Hopefully he'll be honest
and you will have gotten
him on a good start back to
reality. If this doesn't work
kick him a few times- He'll
catch the clue.
Lady
