Is it prom or a wedding?

The senior boys at my school have been going all out this year in their efforts to ask a girl to prom.  In many cases the lengths to which they are going seem more on the level of a marriage proposal. Here are a few of the techniques employed...

• Candles in the girl's driveway spell out "Prom with me?"
• Sticky notes completely cover all of the windows of the girl's car and the question is written on top of them
• Signs going up the road into school pop the question in the form of a poem (like the old Burma-Shave ads)
• An elaborate rose ceremony in the middle of class ends with the big question.  A student got 11 male friends to each bring a rose into the girl's class, spaced a couple of minutes apart; then the boyfriend brought in the last rose.  (He did get the teacher's permission first!)

I feel kind of bad for the rest of the senior boys who had an awful lot to live up to!
