worked so hard to achieve?
Graduation calls for some
sort of special festivity Any
fool can pour alcohol into a
blood system until the red
cells face minority status. A
college graduate should be
able to party with a certain
flair that seemed unattainable
just days before
Theme parties have be
come popular recently and
can be interesting it done
properly. One form of theme
party is the generation party
You pick a certain decade and
and everyone dresses in the
clothing of that time You also
try and arrange activities that
are stereotypical of the age
Fifties parties have always
been popular The music and
the clothes are very distmc
tive. and what male hasn t had
fantasies involving the combi
nation of hair oil and doing
the limbo7
Probably the best decade
to party to is the 60s The
clothes were the wildest and
the music was the best. But
throwing a 60s party in Eu
gene, a town permanently
stuck in time, seems redun
dant
Seventies parties can be
tun Once dressed in polyes
ter and feathered hair, the
need to stand in a line with
similarly dressed people and
dance in unison is overwhelm
mg The feeling of together
ness and harmony is very spir
dual
A different form of theme
party that is popular with Eng
lish maiors is the Literary
Characters" party Guests
dress as their favorite charac
ters from literature They
adopt the mannerisms of that
character, then other guests
try to figure out who they are
This is fun unless one of
the guests is a fan of Edgar
Allen Poe or Stephen King
Nothing will end a party faster
than a mass murder The po
lice show up and the mess
left for the host to clean up is
lust atrocious
Topping the list of theme
parties has to be the Pro
Bowlers Tour party Every
one dresses as their favorite
professional bowler Then you
sit around and watch high
lights ot the top telecasts
from the past 10 years
The pro bowlers party is a
personal favorite of many, be
cause if things begin to drag
there is enough polyester be
mg worn to immediately
switch the theme to back to a
'70s party Simply insert a Bee
Gees tune
While not at the same level
ot intensity as the pro bowlers
party, the Heavy Metal or
Die party has merits of its
own The highlight of the
evening is (he head banging
contest The winner is the
first person who can induce
whiplash First prize is tradi
tionally a personalized hypo
dermic needle and a gilt cer
tificate for a hearing aid
The party - an also be intel
let tuaily challenging if the
host requires anyone caught
not ending a sentence with
the word dude to be forced
to listen to rap music he rest
ot the night
