I like the name, and what cool news.

right on dude!

Flux posted this poem a while back & I love the fucking thing. I figured it could come in handy if you decide to make a habit of being a good samaritan/superhero. Every other stanza is supposed to be italicized starting with the second.It didn't transfer via cut/paste and I'm too lazy to do it.


"After Experience Taught Me..."

After experience taught me that all the ordinary
Surroundings of social life are futile and vain;

I'm going to show you something very
Ugly: someday, it might save your life.

Seeing that none of the things I feared contain
In themselves anything either good or bad

What if you get caught without a knife;
Nothingeven a loop of piano wire;

Excepting only in the effect they had
Upon my mind, I resolved to inquire

Take the first two fingers of this hand;
Fork them outkind of a "V for Victory"

Whether there might be something whose discovery
Would grant me supreme, unending happiness.

And jam them into the eyes of your enemy.
You have to do this hard. Very hard. Then press

No virtue can be thought to have priority
Over this endeavor to preserve one's being.

Both fingers down around the cheekbone
And setting your foot high into the chest

No man can desire to act rightly, to be blessed,
To live rightly, without simultaneously

You must call up every strength you own
And you can rip off the whole facial mask.

Wishing to be, to act, to live. He must ask
First, in other words, to actually exist.


And you, whiner, who wastes your time
Dawdling over the remorseless earth,
What evil, what unspeakable crime
Have you made your life worth?

W.D. Snodgrass.

What happened to Old Youth?

I like happy dead man! It says a lot for three words!

yeah, well we will cross that bridge when we get to it. thus far, it seems like the guy is f***ing my bf by not corresponding in a timely manner, etc. and the car is totally paid for, which is scary. it been hard with the bf gone, trying to arrange delivery, but less than a month and counting.

how old skool? like jack kitchen or younger like stray cats? i grew up on it, listening to a lot of elvis, loretta lynn, johnny cash, paul anka, patsy cline, glen glenn, lots of bluegrass and country. then broke free and tried different genres from punk to goth, but i always come back to good ol' rockabilly. always depends on my mood though. i am kinda neurotic like that. how about you and your tastes?

hey whats up mo? i'm new to this thing and just sayin hi. I'm livin out east but originally from cali, and thought i'd just drop ya a line and say hi !

cheers!

Fuck! Ouch that's awful. I'm so sorry. At least you get good loving though. I get no lovin. My lovin lives 360 miles away...

yup

aww, I'm doing really really well these days. I'm a very happy BabyBeezer.

I'm sorry about your teeth, ouch!!!

Damn that must have been hell to wake up to. But atleast it's all been taken care of. Those damn bastards.

I LOVE going to the dentist. It's utter artistry. But it is terribly difficult to find a good dentist. Once you find one hang on to him or her like grim death.

I hate dantists I had braces when I was younger I have so many horror storys. And I always had to argu with my dentist to ware gloves I even recall biteing once, oopps

Thats funny!!

Has it been 3 days? Can you still get your money back? Jenny was a WAY better deal, dude - bring her back!

Oh, and hey: I have a small part in my movie for you, if you're interested. Email me your number (sorry - if I had it, I lost it) so we can chat. Cheers!

Wow, the car sounds nice. My friend bought a car off ebay, great deal and dammit if it still doesn't run.

I'm trying to find a good photographer.
