Homecoming?

I am assuming you meant that a lot of us guys might not be the best with the ladies and am still looking myself in the mirror trying to figure out what you mean.

But assuming you are listening to what everyone is saying I will offer my two cents.

To agree with everyone else, the fire thing is a bad idea. Again…bad!

Some of the ideas here are good. If you have some serious balls, you can just get her name tattooed across your chest and tell her you are love with her. Follow it up with a call to her house every two minutes and pebbles against her window at two in the morning. When they call the police, slip the officer a twenty to arrest her instead and lock you two in the back of the squad car together, you could ask her to the homecoming.

Or just walk up and ask her what time she wants you to pick her up. That’s a better way to go, to me. Good luck.

It’s like John Cusack on crack. I like it.

You win!

I think I have arrived at a recipe for success… now it’s time for the great Don Juans at SDMB to help me refine it or tear it apart.

Step 1:

Yes, she drives (the car will come into play later).

Step 1.5:

So fire… it was a bad idea. At least I had my heart in the right place.

However, I have found a way to get a similar, albeit not as explosive, sudden darkness-to-light effect: Projector Hooked up to Laptop.

Step 2:

Okay record my own track…

pump it through a boom box…

Plan:
0900 Make sure she has no plans tonight
1200 Coordinate with her sister for a plan to get her into the car at 2050 Hrs (after sunset)
2045 Sister plants a CD with mysterious instructions to follow the signs in her car. (Disguised voice of course…)
2050 Target follows signs set up that tell her to “Turn Right” “Turn Left” etc. (2-3 signs with an infantryman and a flashlight- to light up the signs)
2055 (Cue dramatic music) Car stops at predetermined location, sister makes target get out.
2056 One of my men is on the roof with the Laptop & LCD projector all ready to go
2057 Target reaches large X on the ground
2058 Suddenly a sees an projection image and hears a romantic jazz song
2059 Gunnsfastest emerges from the bushes- in his trenchcoat :stuck_out_tongue: -with a rose
2100 Asks question: receives a yes and a hug, a yes and a kiss, a polite no, or a scream and a fainted girl.

Any ideas for what the projection should be, how I could fine tune the plan, any elements that probably aren’t right?

wow… that was creepesque; I could have probably done without the miltary precision.

Bah…go with the Maverick sings “You’ve Lost That Loving Feeling” bit from Top Gun. Bonus points if ya line up some buddies to sing backup…
