I remember my prom date 32 years ago. We played Nintendo on ATARI because the NES didn't exist yet. It was a triple date and we were hosted by a foster parent of one of them, who made an EXCELLENT steak dinner in addition to the Atari games prior to the prom.
My date was a tall, popular girl who grew up in a sheep farming family, which was obvious when my ten speed's bottom bracket welding broke and the bike got horribly stretched out like a drag bike. Her sister passed me in their Chevy LUV and stopped to help...
There were three dead lambs in the truck bed. I lived in a tiny town of under 3,000 then and the first thing you encounter entering town is a farm tractor and equipment lot.
She was nearly 6 feet tall, meaning I had to look UP a lot. When I asked her I really had no belief she would even be free, much less that she would say yes!
Nothing became of it after the date but I ended up chaperoning her sister on a school club field trip to California and the Oregon coast the next year, an adventure in itself. My date became an optometrist and married another one, giving birth to six children and I haven't seen her for 29 years.
Go figure.
Your date is a lovely young lady and I hope you had the best time of your current life, like a prom should always be.

Well, back to "other" news, I just wanted to make sure everyone knew that any reports of TapeHead's ultimate demise have been greatly exaggerated. We're not going anywhere, and we use this opportunity to strengthen friendships across all members who enjoy good audio, good music and good friendships regardless of which forum.
