It's that time of year again - 667 is having an awards show, hosted by Willis, to honor the members of 667 that have worked so hard to make it the wonderful place that it is. There are thirteen separate categories this year, all highlighting different types of people and different aspects of the forum. From now until April 7th, nominations will be accepted, after which the nominees will be revealed and voted upon. This reporter would like to encourage everyone to visit the temporary board at the top of the forum and make some nominations. Now is the chance to give people you feel have worked hard the recognition they deserve!

tim here to tell you an unfortunate news like an unfortunate event like someone gives you chewing gum for lunch. that happened is that friends at school are having fun at me because of my new transformer shoes they say they are dumb with lights and velcro what are you some kind of bathroom word baby? so these shoes are not my happiest thing anymore i love them so much but i will only where them when i am not at school but now I have a very most happiest thing that is laundry and do it like a real grown up do. you may think tim what the devil laundry is a chore my friend! but I tell you it is a chore that is so fun you dont even need spoonfuls of sugars! I learned how to wash my very own laundry yesterday because my mom says tim you get so many stains from pilling food and juice on your shirt that you need to learn how hard it is to get them out and do more careful! my favorite part of laundry is the detergent. we ran all out of it so my mom and me went to the store for some new stuff and I got to pick the kind I picked one that smells like fruity it is so delicious in my nose. I also like to put in the fabric softer to make the clothes nice to wear for everybody. I like the softer that is pour in not sheets because it is fun to pour and the sheets look like baby wipes and I don't want that in my clothes thank you very much because that is what use to clean baby mess that is gross. my mom say the when the work is done then start the fun but when i do laundry work and fun are having at the same time!

ADR Poem
Oh look over there
In her sparkly pink throne
With her sparkly pink scepter
And her glittery pink crown
In an elaborate tutu
With a poodle at her side
Here comes ADR
With her eye rolling smilies
And an ugly pink car
She kicks out the good
And frowns at them too
She pokes fun at the smart
She thinks she’s better than you
Just for solving a puzzle
You didn’t have the time for
She is paranoid for sure
Thinks we’re all out to get her
Ignores our suggestions
Because they upset her
I for one am more annoyed
With the destruction of the forum
That for so long I’ve enjoyed
Opinions don’t matter
Even those of her employees
So as we sit and watch it fall
She has the last laugh
Dancing around in her silly tutu
Playing a violin
While the rest of us
Look on in despair
Carmelita Spats lives
In the form of ADR

Libitina and Fantine's Tips on Life, the Internets, and Other Illusions
Libitina: Good news, 667!
Fantine: Hurrah!
Libitina: I was watching Family Guy today, and one fellow said "Oh my God! There's a bear in my oatmeal!" I was pretty darn excited because that was Luis's old signature. Remember?
Fantine:...That was really unexciting.
Libitina: Yeah, whatever. Now, I have kind of ignored the "internet" part of my tips. This week, I am suggesting that you visit www.homiejoe.co.nr, which is my younger brother's web comic.
Fantine: Libby's been doing extensive research on the internet, can you tell?
Libitina: Tip: Naps!
Fantine: I believe you've suggested this one before.
Libitina: They're so brilliant, though. I highly suggest them.
Fantine: Very good. Why don't you go take a nap now and leave the column to me?
Libitina: Highly unlikely. Next tip: Horton Hears a Who!
Fantine: The exclamation point in that tip is used doubly. Not only is it in the title of the movie, but we're really excited about it.
Libitina: Thanks for clearing that up, Fanny. Horton Hears a Who! does a wonderful job of interpreting the literary masterpiece by Dr. Seuss, even if the cute little emo kid's voice is done by Jesse McCartney. It also proves my theory about the world being a better place if we all gave each other cookies.
Fantine: And if you're a super geek like Libitina, you'll discuss the underlying themes of the film with your friends.
Libitina: Tip: Stop relying on cell phones and other crazy things like that.
Fantine: They're annoying and foolish. We're not gonna lie.
Libitina: In the words of my math teacher, "How busy can you possibly be that you need a cell phone?"
Fantine: Answer: You're not that busy! Do you think my French baker host needed a cell phone? No way.
Libitina: Why are we so angry about this?
Fantine: Because kids in West Side Story are checking their cell phones whilst they are on stage. Sheesh.
Libitina: Word.
Fantine: Stick it to the man.
Libitina: Actually, it's mostly the girls who are obsessed. Now, another tip: Join clubs. Be nice to people. Be jolly.
Fantine: Because everyone likes a jolly kid!
Libitina: Some people just aren't very rad anymore. But if you are rad, good on you.
Fantine: Jolly good fun.
Libitina: And unfortunately, I really have no more tips.
Fantine: We're exhausted this week. Sorry.
Libitina: Until next week, farewell.

ASOQE #221: "This Love" by The Veronicas.
* * *
Violet smiled as she typed furiously on her laptop.
PersianIndigo: Wazzup?
I can see it in your eyes
Taste it in our first kiss
Stranger in this lonely town
Save me from my emptiness
She then heard the warning tone and looked back.
QuickasQuig: Hey! How's the trip going?
PersianIndigo: There was a mix up with the luggage!
QuickasQuig: Ouch. Did you get yours back?
PersianIndigo: Eventually!
You took my hand
You told me it would be ok
I trusted you to hold my heart
Now fate is pulling me away, from you
She could just see in her mind's eye Quigley chucking.
Even if I leave you now
And it breaks my heart
Even if I'm not around
I won't give in
I can't give up
On this love
QuickasQuig: *laughs*
There was a knock at the door.
PersianIndigo: brb
Violet shut the laptop.
You've become a piece of me
Makes me sick to even think
Of mornings waking up alone
Searching for you in my sheets
Don't fade, away
The knock was someone from the hotel staff, apologising about the mix-up.
I can't just close the door
I never felt anything like this before
Tell me the truth no matter what we're going through
Will you hold on too 'cause
She got back to the laptop and flipped it open.
She hadn't seen the message he'd sent before she'd typed 'brb'.
Now he was offline, presumably annoyed.
QuickasQuig: I miss you.
