Kudos to whoever mentioned the prom yesterday. Good call. Lucky has the haunted expression not of someone whose error wrecked a perfect game but rather a soldier who witnessed atrocities and is having flashbacks.

I hope Lucky and the operator of the party bus end up on Judge Judy in a dispute over whether the bus was as advertised. My daughter tells me party bus cases are a staple on that show.

WILL lucky get lucky on prom night?

I really hope Slim Chance and his band are playing at the prom.

No, no, no. The line is “How about a nice Hawaiian Punch?”

In all reality, will Wendy have a video made of her dancing at the Prom ?

“Let’s do the hand jive BABY!” Where are the T-Birds and greasers? Next game the the basebal team…a doubleheader vs. Rydell High.

It’s always great to plan ahead so that the couple can coordinate their outfits. Nice of Amy to give Lucky 3 days notice.Heeerrrrrrrrrrrreeee’s MUT!

Yours are not showing up twice (at least to me), unless you are deleting the extra one. One thing I noticed is that when I post a comment and then hit “refresh comments” it shows a double post. But it’s not really a double post, if I refresh the whole page the double disappears.

A Tux, a Formal Gown, and a Pony Tail. Miffedmax is right.

It what point did the “the” stop being used before “prom”? Maybe next weekend they can spend the afternoon at “zoo” or hang out in “mall”. And when Lucky inevitably gets hurt, he can go to “hospital”, just like the British.

Did Lucky ask her and forget?Depending on your background, “prom” can mean almost anything. This one isn’t the last-minute type of thing like going to the sock hop together after the pep rally and bonfire.

@bitsi twill“the” became unnecessary at the same time this generation “graduated high school” rather than “graduated from high school”

Today’s sign:“Let loose the bucket of pig blood!”

@Bitsy I trace it back 25 years ago today when the Toronto Blue Jays opened “Skydome” not “The Skydome”.

C’mon, guys, let’s all jump in car, head to Bucket and discuss game. I’ll pick up check if you cover tip for waitress.

Yep him and Amelia Earhart both. Sipping tea and eating crumpets up inside that cavern,
