Will you marry me?
on 11/19/09 at 9:00 am | Dear Tell All: I am planning to propose to my girlfriend very soon, and I was wondering if you could give some advice about the place. I know she would like it to be "in public," and the Memorial Union Terrace would be perfect, but that obviously won't work with the weather. So I was considering a bar/pub/restaurant with live music. The problem is that I can't think of a nice place. |

Ask Mrs. Gift
on 11/19/09 at 9:00 am | Dear Mrs. Gift, I have two nephews and a niece, but I don't live near them and have never been terribly close. Instead, I've always been much closer to my friends' kids. But I cannot give gifts to all of my friends' kids and my relatives' kids—it's just too expensive, time consuming and exhausting. How do I balance the familial guilt with my desire to give gifts to kids I'm not related to, but feel much more closer to, and avoid hurting anyone's feelings? |

Get up with it!
on 11/12/09 at 9:00 am | Dear Tell All: I work in a small Madison office. Our receptionist is 66 years old and refuses to use email. So whenever someone calls and doesn't want to leave a voicemail, Madge scribbles the message down on a Post-it note. She saves them up until she gets the energy to walk over to my desk, then slaps them down as if I've done something wrong. |
