(Secretary asks the "What's your favorite candy?" question)
Interviewee (after answering Mango Altoid Sours): Um, that was a really scary question; I thought that there was some subliminal message in there.
Social Chair: Actually, now you have to compare each one of us to a Mango Altoid Sour.
5:40 pm
Webmaster manages to offend Marilla a second time.

Chair: "Last question... what's your favorite Leslie Feist song?"
6:30-6:50 pm

7:30 - 8:15 pm
The board compares Britney then (pre-pregnancy/grossness) to now. Then we look at Madonna, who's loads hotter.
(While watching Britney's VMA performance)
"Wow, who wouldn't want that mother-of-two ass?" David, clearly, has reach a point of insanity.
9:35 pm
We're with our last interviewee, yet the madness remains...
The candy question, version 129312097412093812098
(note: each line represents a separate board member's input)
You're walking down the street. It's very dark. You're all alone.
In your pocket, you only have... chapstick and a dollar.
Suddenly, it begins to rain and the only store that's open is Duane Reade, so you walk in.
Suddenly you realize that you're starving. You are dripping everywhere.
Your blood sugar is dropping rapidly. You suddenly you realize that you still have that dollar
and you need a sugar fix. Which candy bar would you buy?
9:44 pm
IT'S OVER!

Now, for the cold, senseless judgment.
11:45 pm
Cold, senseless judgment has ended. I doubt many people have the energy to party this Friday night. (What a sad, sad situation.)

i second nhu-y's opinion. though try not to repeat what happened last year--after the half-day of interviews, we ended up in Lerner til 2am making that ridiculous banner of disney characters that was hanging in my EC suite last year.
(will AAAPC be getting newborns anytime soon??)
..... do midterms count here?
Ready to have babies already Ryan?
I'm going to be a great-grandfather! (That's how it works right?)
