I tried to communicate with you telepathically. Pretty flakeyville, hunh? I just felt this strong compulsion when I guess I could have been sleeping but I figured I could sleep later, and I did. I hope you wake up soon. We miss you, tht's all. Take your time as you need, I told you, but I really miss you and flakeyville or not, I hope you felt/heard me last night. I keep lighting candles for you, sweetheart. I think of you every day, I really do. I heart you, big time. I'm going to write you a letter and maybe Chris could read it to you. Btw, that postage stamp on the letter you sent to me was so cute! I loved the teddy bear with the presents design of it. I didn't see any US stamps as cute or cool as that one. It's a keeper. :) xo Siobhan

Flunkie, I think that last bit was an attempt to show how members who lie beget paranoia that spins out of control.Good.
You shouldn't confuse people's approval of a narrative for their belief in it.I'm not sure what this means. Seriously.
While I agree that there was nothing overtly religious about her comments, her tone was one of righteous reasonableness but she was being entirely unreasonable in her interpretation of u.n. owen's actions here.I think that's overstating it- I've read the comment several times (that's the one we're talking about, right?) and it reads as a reasonable opinion on the subject to me, though one easy to disagree with.
The question is what person have you fucked in the music business that surprised you the most?Conor Oberst.
Dum Dums are made in about twelve different flavors; nine or ten of these flavors are classic flavors; two or three are cycled in and out. The "Mystery Flavor," present in every bag of Dum Dums, is a combination of two flavors in the bag. The combined flavors are random. This combination occurs because the production of Dum Dums is continuous--there is no stop between flavors. This practice results in the flavor combination.So, "Mystery Flavor" equals "we can't be arsed to stop and clean the equipment before we roll to the next flavor in production."
people like you, s_m
er, make that, s_r....paging Dr. Freud!
YOUNG LOVER. Forgive me, Madame, or should I say Mademoiselle?I tried to understand the importance of this until I jostled the book slightly and the hair wriggled off the page and onto the desk. I think it is mocking me.
GIRL-FRIEND. I beg your pardon, I'm afraid I don't happen to know you!

cortex, you have an IMG link (naughty power abuser) and witty quip for 2000 all ready to post in another window, don't you?
He'd better. Otherwise we're all wasting our time.

What I learned from the famous sans quoi thread of 2008 was how if I believe in myself, I can really accomplishe something positive, and it can make a difference in this world because I meant something to that one starfish, and also I learned that if you scroll a long MeTa really fast, it can make the pretty lady appear, and also a piano, and that the People of the Long Boat are good and fine and true. The end.
