So I think a bunch of posts have been kind of testy lately, and I wanted to post something that I think just affirms how neat and awesome some people are in ways you probably wouldn't have thought of.
I present to you Miss Maura Pozek of Reeds Spring, Missouri, who has a history of out of the ordinary prom dresses. In her Sophomore year, she hand crafted a dress out of used Dorito bags. Last year, she wove together 4000 pop tabs into a fancy off-the-shoulder number. So for her senior year, she had to outdo herself somehow, and the result was a dress made entirely of...get this, cardboard.



I heard this story on NPR earlier this week and just had to grin from ear to ear. Maybe it's the dad in me, but I really hope that her parents are incredibly proud to have a child this talented and willing to pursue her talents.

As a nerd I say this with complete admiration.
