Dear Tat

Dear Tat,

I'm having these real bad headaches! Is it because I have this teacher 1/2 the day with all these assignments to do, or is it that I'm thinking too hard.

Headache

Dear Headache,

I think you just need to take Tylenol to relieve your real bad headaches and try not to think too hard during class.

A friend,
Tat

Dear Tat.

I am crazy in love with a junior. He is tall, dark-skinned with pretty pink lips, but he doesn't seem to care. Can you solve my problem?

Crazy One

Dear Crazy One,

Well, I guess you have to find someone else who is tall, dark- skinned, and with pretty pink lips.

A friend,
Tat

Dear Tat,

I have a problem with these boys who are always bumming for cigs or gum. They can't even afford there own habits.

Getting Cigless

Dear Getting Cigless,

You should start telling those boys to afford their own habits and that you are not a vending machine. Tell them that things cost money.

A friend,
Tat

Dear Tat,

Hi! I got no muscles. Maybe this school needs a weight lifting class or maybe I need to start lifting weights at home. What you think?

Bones

Dear Bones,

I think you need to start chopping wood and washing dishes more often at home.

A friend,
Tat

Dear Tat,

I have this one problem with people writing on my skin with pens and markers. What do you think I should do?

Paper

Dear Paper,

I think you should have paper with you all the time when you think someone's going to write on you. Or when you see them coming with their pen tell them to back off.

A friend,
Tat

Dear Tat,

I get sick of smelling peoples' bodies when they are close by. It really stinks and the people should shower more often. Help me deal with this.

Clean

Dear Clean,

I think it may not be the person that's beside you. You are probably smelling your upper lip. Maybe you should wash that more often. Or blow your nose.

A friend,
Tat

Dear Tat,

I have a problem with my boyfriend. He always tickles my toes and I'm getting sick and tired of it. Can you help me solve my problem?

Tickle Toes

Dear Tickle Toes,

You should try kissing him on the left ear. If that doesn't work, try tickling his toes back.

A friend,
Tat
