Messages 101-200A. i swear that there is some physchotic connection between music teachers & jolly ranchers, ours gives us them for helping to organize or clean the room. B. i have to go write that damn report now, so this letter's going 2 b short C. there was a scottish highland games in livermore {my boring city} this weekend that rocked endlessly, i got a lot of unimportant, albiet fun stuff done. There was also a street party that had several totally awesome bands at it on sasturday night. Celebriän Mostly_Harmless is good- let's just go with that. Let's start the letter in the time-honored tradition of: "Dear Muse, Print this letter or we'll sic our trained army of pink bunny emoticons on the world, the editors, the tenrecs, and the rest of society." and every few lines put in a plug for a website located at www.musefanpage.com. Which, by the way, is a very nice website - neat, easy to navigate, pretty, and actually prints our letters. I was thinking the other day (always dangerous), and I realized that six times nine isn't the answer to the universe and everything- the question got distorted in Arthur Dent's brain, since he wasn't an original inhabitant of Earth, so the question is probably something more like, "what is six times eight? 42." or something. The online rhyming dictionary didn't include "belly"??!?! I go to practice violin, which I have been doing a whole lot lately (on my last practice record [we're done with them for the year! Yes!!! {except that we get jolly ranchers for turning them in, yay, hard candy}] last week I practiced 1170 minutes- I don't know where I get that much time) Lizzie I think "belly" was the word I wrote in the "find rhymes" slot of the search form. That's why it didn't appear among the rhymes. "Kokopelli" himself was the glaring omission. The list in the four-syllable section went straight from "giacomelli, giovanelli, iannelli" to "locatelli, lucarelli, mancinelli" with nary a "k" in sight. WM 198. a limerick i didn't write when i was in my mom's choir, we used to sing this as a round: there was a old man from perth let's write the whole entire letter in limerick form i suppose morbid knos this, but i didn't: Celebriän Someone stole my future evolution issue of Muse..... Grr... I had brought it is for my bio teacher to look at and she looked at it and then put it on the desk and then it disapeared! Grr.... Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ 196. Contrary to Popular Opinion, The Rain in Spain Stays Mainly in the Hills I approve of Plan Mostly_Harmless. Good luck on the 10-hour rehearsal, Duncan. There once was a woman from Ryde, There was a young man from Australia, There once was a gardener from Leeds "How does an elephant hide in a tree?" There once was a Queen Julietaini I wrote the last limerick myself. I think it's very good. Oh, and by the way, I have a suggestion about how to start off the letter. What about "Dear Muse,"? And then we could end with "Insanely, The Fans Mobbing the Gaboomba." Queen Julietaini the Flamablamablous of Kiador Codenames? Codenames?!?!?! OOOOO! OOOOoooooOOOOOOoooooOOOOOoooooOOOOO!!!!! I WANNA BE AGENT MOTHMAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It'll be all, like, "Agent Mothman to Huggy Bear, we have a code green, all systems go, prepare to fire, do you copy?" "Roger that, Agent Mothman, the missles are ready for launching, I'm gonna refer you over to Bloaty The Pig, over and out?" "Bloaty The Pig to Agent Mothman, subject Bo Didley is on the move. Have you got 'er locked?" "Lock, stock, and barrel. Ten-four, Bloaty The Pig, let's move out." That was so magical. -Morbid P.S. We have laptops in Algebra. I named mine Milton and I'll admit I occasionally sneak on here. Morbid. Bad. Bad little nerd girl. 193.The Rain in Spain Stays Mainly in the Plain I say we use Mostly_Harmless as our plans official name. Cel --- ugh! I had to do a report on effects of the Civil War earlier thin year, but it was only five or six pages. Heres my special limerick: There once was a girl named Kay Im off to a ten hour rehearsal (My Fair Lady) Woohoo. ---Duncan_Quagmire, the person who is too lazy to think of anything exciting to write here. "Mostly Harmless." I like the sound of that. WM 192. Hey! Take me to your readers... A LETTER FROM THE NONEXISTENT BUT STILL COOL PALACE OF KIADOR Regarding Weirdness, But Then Again, What Isn't Here? I totally second the vote for Project World Domination (PWD Pies Work Deliciously) Or, of course, Rule_The_Earth, RTE, or Read To Everybody. Or we could just call it supercagifragilisticexpealidocious. Sigh. My fingers hurt. That aside, I must say rim hennaid to D_Quaggers for correcting me about Zaphod B, condolences to Celadon-I mean Celebrian-about her essay, and I heart Lizzie's lovely, linear limerick. Incidentally, my friend Bumbles's limerick starts out the same way. Well, I've got to go, so I am working on the MM (mob starts) and it's closer to being done (mob sighs) so don't worry. (mob sleeps) Love, peace, kudos and Nutella on a triple to everybody, Queen Julietaini the Flamablamablous of Kiador, Mizdict the Great, <insert illustrious titles here> <over and out> luv the letter idea, u probably wont b seeing much of me 4 a while, i'll be typing a 12-page civil war report. Celebriän or plan world_conquest.. or code hot_pink_bunnies.. or the_plan_in_black_and_white_on_the_FAQ_page I think I'm having too much fun Lizzie yay, letters to magazines! Hmm.. I vote for plan rule_the_earth, or, when we're in a hurry, r_t_e... There once was a Muse, Kokopelli, -Lizzie man, it's hard to find things that rhyme with Kokopelli. Cruelly hard. Here's all one online rhyming dictionary had to offer, apart from a bunch of Italian names and other obscure words (including Nelly). Add capital letters as needed: delhi, deli, ellie, jelly, kelley, kelli, kelly, shelley, shelly, smelly, tele, telly, allele, comb jelly, grape jelly, new delhi, old delhi, apple jelly, royal jelly, torricelli, machiavelli, mineral jelly, petroleum jelly, evangelista torricelli . WM 189. If all the world's a stage, we want better lighting... WM --- If we write a letter, of course well mention the Fan Page. But you may want to keep quiet about the whole world domination thing for now. People never seem to go for that type of thing. Perhaps we should come up with a secret code name of sorts for our plans for world conquest. Any ideas? ---D_Q, the <insert adjective here> The plans are right there in black and white on the FAQ page. The idea was that being absolutely open about what we're up to will lure Them All into a sense of false security. But code names could be useful, too. As the man said, any ideas? WM 188. Letter from MMFP to the magazine I think that is a good idea, D_Q! Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ 187. Oy with the poodles already! Heres an idea --- why dont all of us here at the GABOOMBA put our heads together and write a letter to Muse? ---Duncan_Quagmire, the busy P.S. Has everyone seen the new Narnia trailer yet? If you do write a letter, please put in a plug for the Fan Page. It's been ages since D.L. printed our URL in the magazine, and the lack of recognition is seriously delaying our plans for world conquest. Thanks. WM 101010.42) Thank you, hennaid, merci, danke, gracias for the birthday wishes and invisible moose! 101010.42) I need to go see HG2tG soon! I haven't got a chance yet because I was busy all day with preparations for my party and then later I was busy with my party in the evening. 101010.42) I heard about the ivory bills in my bio class! 101010.42) I like the bunny smileys! ==(8-3 Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ 185. life is good {@ least right now} 101010. i heard about the ivory bills 2 101010. HAPPY B-DAY E~A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 101010. girl scout cookies r addictive 101010. :) 2day was one of the better days of my existence, coincedentally, it included going 2 HG2G w/ some friends, if u want i'll post more details l8r, it was quite amusing 4 various reasons, but it's 10:30 right now & there's still a lot of stuff i've gotta do. G2g now Namárië, Another bunny one that I've seen on people's AIM info, etc is: (\ /) Although it's hard to get it to align properly.. Happy (late? early? on time?) birthday, E~A! Ice cream is good stuff. I like chocolate.. and mint.. and the kind that has the girl scout cookies in it.. and most other kinds.. Talking about petitions, http://www.baselinemag.com/print_article2/0,2533,a=138516,00.asp shows some ways an online campaign could be run... http://www.ktoo.org/gavel/guide/classGuide5-1.htm I think shows how you get on a ballot... I think it changes for all 50 states. Apparently some people have spotted some ivory-billed woodpeckers!! I think it was in Arkansas... The problem with ivory-billed is that people tend to see pileated woodpeckers and think that "ooh, it's an ivory-billed", since there is a tendency to want to see them, but I think that they are pretty sure that it is an ivory-billed this time.. Why did the bunnies become hot pink in the first place? Why not neon blue bunnies? Is there even such a color as neon blue? Lizzie
183. You put the lime in the coconut, you mix 'em bot together Z. {Ha! Im a rebel.} No Im not dead. Just thought I should clear that up first thing for any of you hoopy froods who were wondering. Y. Hello to Lizzie, TOPFOT, RMP, Daniel, Andrew, Chinsu, etc. W. Anywaaaaaaaaaay, the Hitchhikers movie comes out TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you go to see it, bring 3-D glasses if you have them --- the Magrathea hologram is shot in 3-D --- and, of course, a towel. V. That reminds me, what do you get when you multiply six by nine? 42 --- duh! U. Another exciting thing that happened this week is the DVD release of A Series of Unfortunate Events. My favorite deleted scene from the DVD is as follows (its in white print, so if you dont want to have it spoiled you wont see it. Highlight to read.): Movie Critic: Hey, want to get some Chinese after this? I wish theyd left that part in the movie. T. Oh --- happy birthday Elassë~Adæl. Youre exactly 66 days younger than me, unless I counted wrong. For youre birthday Im getting you an invisible moose. Has it arrived at your house yet? Enjoy! S. I borrowed a MacGyver DVD from my math teacher and saw the show for the first time. MacGyver = good show. R. Ive gotta go see Bye Bye Birdie. (Just so you know We Love You, Conrad is hands down THE WORST song to have stuck in your head ever.) ---Duncan_Quagmire, the ==(>8-3 Your up-to-date Webmusester just got back from watching HG2G with a crowd from the (Washington) D.C. Science Writers' Association. Great show! Afterwards we trekked downstairs to Häagen-Dazs for ice cream. Sound like a bunch of teenagers? That's science writers. WM hullo Apparently Koko has been changing the colors of letters. That is why I'm writing my letter in pale indigo. Excuse me, but what the heck going on! i seriously think i need to read the fanpage more. All these nick names are ticking me off. BLOOD SUCKING CHERRIES! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Siyonara, P.S.Thanks for publishing my letter.(there's a hint at who i am)
42. Of course Im for the petition (did I not mention that?!?), and for the Madagascar trip that you proposed. 42. Does anyone know precisely why the colors are messed up? 42. Happy b-day, E~A! 42. WAY too many acronyms here, i.e. TOPFOT, E~A, D_Q, RMP, etc. 42. Why would we send the petition to the White House? I dont think theyre in charge of whos on the ballot 42. Anyone here know who does that? 42. If you dont, I can just look it up someplace. -TOPFOT PS 42 I looked up adoption on the neopets page, and there is no way to adopt unless you abandon MusePet_Chad at the shelter and wait for someone to pick him up. Unfortunately, theres no way to be able to tell who got your neopet afterwards, and there is no way to rig it so only one person can get him, so even if one of us would try to get him, it wouldnt be 100% guaranteed. If we timed the dropoff/pickup right, I think we could be reasonably confident that Chad would wind up in the right hands. I'm willing to give it a try. He was in good shape the last time I checked, but that was last week. WM 182. That's ok It's ok if they know who i am, but will it really benefit them? Anyway, anyone else for a petition (and a trip to save the tenrecs)? -RMP 181. HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALISE~ADAE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 Love ya! I knew Parmesandiriel was here. NPWNI Nipwini, I think you will be OK. LUV, 180. sry RMP ok, so i'm not gonna tell which 1 of my options u r, but i kno who u r. i'll form the petition w/ u. being a detective {or @ least a lucky guesser}is rather fun 4 me so i can't resist, but i won't do it if u ask - Celebriän 101010. I do know that Parmandiriel (or Parm as I call her) has been here for a while. 101010. I pronounce Pwt the same way that Cel does. 101010. Thank you for the directions Juliette 101010. I will be 15 on saturday. Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ 178. o, how i hate people who incover secret identities! Celebriän is unfortunately on the right track, but i think that TOPFOT already knows who i am. Just to follow the herd, i pronounce Pwt the same as Celebriän. Also, going to Madagascar would be like the perfect vacation for musists- but just how are we planning to get the money to get there? And just to see who's interested, who's with me on forming a petition to the White House to put Koko on the 2008 ballot? -RMP
i'm nobody, who r u ?
- Celebriän Yea, verily and forsooth, Elassë-Adæl. It is a good investment. Here I present the Guide to Getting A Nigel Molesworth Compleet Set: 73. Find a Borders bookstore. Bike, walk, or use public transportation to save the environment. 2. March into bookstore. Ask person at counter if he or she can find you Molesworth by Geoffrey Willans and Ronald Searle. Explain that a friend of yours purchased a copy at a Borders bookstore. If the person says no, ask even more nicely if there might possibly be a chance the Borders could get one from another store. There usually is. 42. If 2. does not work, my advice is to find a used or quaint book store out somewhere. Or resort to Amazon. A trip to Madagascar is in order. I have always wanted to go to Africa. Plus there are some cool little islands around Madagascar that look like they will be fun to visit. Lizzie, I think the no-unnatural-hair-colours rule is v. stupid. My school is quite lenient, but there is still only hats on Friday, no skateboards, no pets, and-gasp!-no political campaign stickers excepting election days!!!!!!!!!!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!! Welcome Parmandiriel! Hello random-person-with-no-name-or-identity. luv to all concerned, and especially tenrecs and p.penguins, Queen Julietaini the Flamablamablous of Kiador 175. Can you ever assume anything these days? 42.1 oh. my. gawd. terry pratchett RULES!!! 42.2 is it ever safe to assume anything, TOPFOT, even when you're right? 42.3 going to madagascar was MY idea! idea stealer! -Random Moose Person Kokopelli seems to have been running wild on the site, changing message colors.. Therefore, I will write in green from now on, if I can figure out how to change it to that without messing up all my e-mail, which I can't, so... eh, never mind. Maybe Pwt'll finally give up on catching Crraw? Wait... it says something we've been waiting to see.. so maybe something happens to him/her/it/themuseofchasingcrows? I don't know, I haven't gotten my magazine yet.. Lizzie who has decided to not write in various colors, because she is too lazy to figure out how to, but will instead ponder what color to dye her hair when school finally gets out and she is free of the stupid rule that says "no unnatural hair colors", even though green is a very natural hair color (think sloths- they have greenish fur from the things growing in their hair)... 42. Umm is it safe 4 me 2 say that Celebriän and I already know u, person with no identity? Because I think u r the Random Moose Person. 42. Quest-ce que cest Nigel Molesworth?? 42. I always pronounce Pwt as if I were saying put and Aeiou as, well, A-E-I-O-U. 42. Welcome, Parmandriel. 42. How does one go about adopting Neopets if they are not at the pound? 42. Whatever happened to the links to Morbid and Juliettes sites??? I cant find them anywhere! 42. We should all go 2 Madagascar 2 save the tenrecs. That would be a cool field trip! 42. In the new issue they say Pwts going to do something weve been waiting 4 him 2 do 4 years What do u think that will be??? -TOPFOT Morbid started getting flamedharmlessly, but I decided that the links violated the Fan Page's privacy protection policy. I don't know how to adopt Neopets, but I wish someone would find out and rescue Musepet_Chad from my immiserating ministrations. WM Last week I bought a copy of The Amazing Maurice and His Educated Rodents (excerpted in the July/August 2002 issue) (also known as the cat issue)!!!!! It's really really good. Even though I still have no idea what the wobbly green bit you're not supposed to eat is, though. Hey, I never said I was good at rat anatomy.. ooh! Yay! I made the HG2Gab!!! Thank you! My life now has a purpose! Actually, it still doesn't, but hey.. You can get the (a) Nigel Molesworth book at amazon.co.uk. It's currently at spot no. 5,473 in the sales ranks... Quote to "a new person who has no identity": Hmm.. Muse_song3 (the one by D_Q) is called "a magazine called muse" but titled Oh, Better Far to Throw a Pie.. 2021 will be the 42 anniversary of HG2Galaxy- only 16 more years! Lizzie You can get The Compleet Molesworth at Amazon U.K., too. It'll cost you, though . WM (I know TOPFOT already said this, but who cares?!?!) ALL POWER TO THE PURPLE PENGUINS!!! -A new person who has no identity Hi Parm and Morbid! Le suilannon! Juliette- Is true that you own the Nigel Molesworth books? How does one purchase them? Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ 169. a short, excited note to the gaboomba Okay--Whoever posted "Our website is pastede on yay" on the top of the muse fan page site rocks. A lot. :D /random lurking + commenting --Parmandiriel There's nobody here but us Webmusesters, P. We try to rock, whenever D.L. isn't looking. WM I say Pwt like that too, Lizzie- but I've alway's mashed the vowels together on Aeiou, so it's sounds like I've chopped the "H" off of "Hey, you". As well, I came to the conclusion of Pwt's masculinity on the same quote. They refer to Pwt as a guy once more in that issue, but I can't remember where... Morbid, again. I finally got a chance to peruse the new issue thoroughly (I got it on Tuesday.. busy week) (at least I think I got in on Tuesday. Who actually remembers that far back?)! I really really like the siege machines of myth and legend by Roland Harvey. Especially the giant chicken. And the tree at the bottom of where the two pages join. And the "dungeon viewing times". and the little guys wearing the wicker siege-basket thingys and looking like little haystacks. And the clothesline. And the entire thing. Minor quibble though: shouldn't Little Red Riding Hood's House be Little Red Riding Hood's Grandmother's House? Out of curiosity, how do you guys pronounce Aeiou and Pwt? For some reason, I say Aeiou ahy-ee-eye-oh-you but I say Pwt Phwit, or something like that (rhymes with twit) (with the p pronounced as a p, not as a f). And while I'm on this topic, I think that Pwt's a boy- that one comic with "his running has slowed, his nose needs to be blowed" and if Larry Gonick doesn't know what Pwt is, who does? And I also like the first page Reading Rover thingamajig. Wasn't that picture in another issue also- I forget which one? And how do dogs hold cards in their hand-paws, much less their feet-paws? We have some moonflower vine seeds that we wanted to plant, and the package said to soak them overnight and so I put them in a container with water, and some of them sank to the bottom and others didn't- why did only some do that? Any idea? Why is spell-check taking such a long time? Why am I running spell-check in the first place? Lizzie Larry calls Pwt "he" in Attack of the Smart Pies, too. Still, he just draws the Muses; I suppose it's possible that he could be mistaken. As for the moonflower seeds, my guess is that your packet contained seeds from two batches, one of which had dried out more than the other. The dry ones floated, and the damp ones sank. Or maybe the damp ones started out plumper and held on to their moisture better. I'd have used a magnifying glass to see whether the ones that floated looked different from the ones that sank. WM i should have done the "sit in front of famous place reading muse" thing in japan ! {except my camera was acting rather strange, so who knows, maybe it wouldn't have worked} i'll try 2 do it this summer when i'm in Europe. i have decided 2 take Lizzie's approach 2 life & live in a state of denial; it makes things so much easier. I just got back from France!!! It was a lot of fun. I did the whole "sit in front of famous place and read Muse" picture in front of the Eiffel tower which I'm sure that someone else has done but oh well. Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ Send it in! As far as I know, there's no anti-repetition rule. WM You must Explaaaaain, why this must be. Well, there is no estimated release date. Lizzie has the tenrec part, but I can't put her in a main becuz it would be too confusing. Does any1 kno where I can contakt the CtS people? They're in the Musical. AJR is on my nerves. But M. Rupines-please, guys. Musers on my back I was writing colored messages, am fed up down and sidewais with school and its motley wirnayam possibilities. Thanks Cel for the accents. Hey Daniel! I would take Master Coontz's starving Neopet, but last time I got hooked on NPets I couldn't get off. Juliette 163. You can't make a turtle come out! a. Just think- if Kokopelli was elected, he'd be the first cartoon character ever elected to a government office! Muse would make history! b. Besides, how do you figure that he's a demon? c. 1. <operating system> (Often used equivalently to daemon, especially in the Unix world, where the latter spelling and pronunciation is considered mildly archaic). A program or part of a program which is not invoked explicitly, but that lies dormant waiting for some condition(s) to occur. dai·mon also de·mon or dae·mon n. Greek Mythology Okay, granted, I'll give you the "genius, deified hero" etc stuff, and he might be kind of demonstrative, but he's definitely not an operating system, so I don't see where you're getting this.. [all definitions from dictionary.com, with slight editing on the part of me, Lizzie, to make them more e-mail friendly: ie, getting rid of excessive blanks, pronunciation keys, etc] d. I'll be in the Bay Area. e. I'd take the Neopet, but I don't play neopets, sorry. f. I like binary, but I was wondering the other day- how would you say, for instance, 4.5 in binary? 100.101 ? Is it even possible? g. and, Andrew R. , what do you have against demons? When has an operating system done anything to you? h. and what are you doing here anyway? Got bored with Morbid's site? i. E~A - have you seen Hard Day's Night (the movie that the "Arthur" quote [by George Harrison] came from)? It's pretty good- there's a script at I, personally, prefer Help!, but they're both good. As is Yellow Submarine. I haven't seen Magical Mystery Tour. off off and away riding into the sunset (which by the way is kind of annoying because the driver can't see where they're going and so you have to turn off the music so they can concentrate and all this time there's this glare from the road shining into your eyes) Lizzie f. 4.5 (base 10) = 100.1 (base 2, i.e., binary). WM å. grrr.............. i wish they all worked ?. daylite saveings is horrid, horrid, horrid ç. Sulaid Daniel ?. where in CA r u gonna b Lizzie ? é. ok, so i was wrong, AJR was pretending 2 b M.R., nut i still h8 them both Namárië, Celebriän 17. Im taking the second half of French I this year and will take French II next year. W. I also take Pre-algebra E. Where in CA r u visiting??? R. Is there a current estimated release date for the Muse-ical? T. I started a book by M. Lackey dont know when Ill finish the thing. Y. Macintosh and Linux??? Not sure, but on my Windows, I just go to Insert and click on symbols and it comes up with a bunch of different letters with accents and other shapes. U. Time change= annoying + tiring I. I thought that Queen Julietaini was writing colored messages. O. Whats Elizabethan spelling? -TOPFOT Still no takers for my starving Neopet? WM 1. we wont spear u Juliette, we understand 10. accents {on mac} instuctions r as follows: 11. acute accents {á é í ó ú}: push alt/option key & E key; hold until small black box containing a red line & a white accent appears {the colors may b different on your comp. i'm not sure} lift your fingers, & press vowel that needs accenting. 100. circumflex {â ê î ô û} same procedure, useing I key instead of E key 101. {ä ë ï ö ü}: same, but w/ U key 110. here's the keys u use {where u would use the E key in the 1st procedure} 2 make these things, just in case ne1 was interested: Namárië, Celebriän Sorry! Some of those Mac tricks don't work on the Web. WM 157. ah, the joys of waking up and finding it's an hour later than you thought it was !. Now I know why I couldn't figure out who Milton Rupines was! I just found that issue under my history spiral from 7th grade that I had vowed never to look at again! I wonder how it got there.. @. That was a truly horrible class. Boring, the teacher was mean, all we did was color in the stupid spirals and get graded on it.. I like history, but I hated that class. #. This summer I will be in California... $. Next year I will be taking geometry pre-ap, english pre-ap, spanish 2, and hopefully latin 1 if I manage to test out of world history.. %. how long is the Museical delayed for? If you still need people to be tenrecs, can I be one? ^. Ack, my computer doesn't change the time all by itself. That's no fun. &. Also, does anyone know how to do accents on Linux, which I am running? *. Have fun in France, E~A! (. I don't know- you kind of have to admire Milton Rupines for having the chutzpah it takes to admit to hating LOTR in a magazine full of LOTR worshippers.. !). So if we were still on Elizabethan spelling, would we still have those dreaded spelling tests? Lizzie, where the future is being made today. 155. see spot run. see spot run into a briar bush. laugh in spot's face. A. It is I, Queen Julietaini the Flamablamablous of Kiador. B. Elizabethan spelling WAS "devil-may-care-but-what-the-hey" C. I am really sorry about being the bearer of bad news, but the Muse Musical is delayed. Why? Oh, maybe because I have enough work for wirnayam twenty people and no employees. Just me. C'est la vie. D. Welcome, Lizzie! E. Celebriän, now that you have learned to make accents on a Macintosh computer {my rival}, would you share your knowledge? F. is not for Fahrenheit. G. Peace to you all. Please don't spear me for the delay.

You can't be sure it's the real Milton R. Somebody else may be using his name. Online, who knows? Who is Milton Rupines? I never figured that out.. Lizzie In the Muse Mail section of the May/June 2004 issue, a reader complained about the December 2003 issue. "When I saw an issue devoted entirely to Lord of the Rings, I mentally puked," he (or she) wrote. "The Lord of the Rings movies STINK!" The reader signed the letter Milton Rupinesan anagram of his/her real name, he/she said. Musers have been arguing about it ever since. WM A. why does our English teacher make us do research on notecards (and we had to have 300 of them!and we only use one side! I mean, that's a major waste of paper! You could fit that amount into less than 30 sheets of paper, which could be recycled!) ? B. At least the student teacher isn't teaching that class anymore.. she taught a unit on the Civil War and actually said that the Dred Scott decision was in Dred Scott's favor, and she kept making grammatical mistakes on papers and tests (she would spell "a part" [as in "an engine is a part of a car"] "apart").. I mean, that's pretty bad for an English teacher. C. Does anyone play an instrument? I play violin, and can get around on various other instruments with various amounts of competence. D. I like the LOTR books, and haven't seen the movie(s).. E. it's always very tempting for me to make an Elvish/Elvis pun, even though I really don't like Elvis (we had to play an arrangement of his stuff for All-Region Orchestra and I hated it and I hated the original songs) Lizzie. A. I take algebra II/trig and I took french III last semester. I will be taking french IV next year (my sophomore year) B. I live in Il[dh]rin near the city of Aeryneä. My house is on a cliff near a waterfall and there are tunnels from the basement of my house that lead through the cliff. There is even one that leads straight to the palace/school in the middle of Aeryneä! (ihlth-rin) (ehr-in-ay-ah) C. Does anyone here read books by Mercedes Lackey? She is a good fantasy author. If you would like to read her books I would recomend that you start with Arrows of the Queen. D. I will be in France over my spring break from April 2-8th. Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ That "[dh]" is supposed to be a letter edh, but edh is hard to make with my computer. In The Lord of the Rings, Ithilien is a region east of Gondor but west of Mordor. WM 1.150th post (unless someone beats me to it)!!!! Yay!!! 2. You people live in the state of denial, and I live in the state of insanity. 3. Ithilien?? Is it one of those non-existant, but still cool places like Kiador? 4. Would the essay be the one we had the presentation on at school? Just curious. 5. Have never read the Tolkein Reader. 6. My class doesnt have any vacation homework, which is amazing. -TOPFOT A. o! i think i've had Inari then, but just didn't remeber what it was called {it sounds familiar} B. lol, i luv that! u live in a state of denial! lol!

Calo Anor Na Ven, Celebriän 1.School days= tons of homework. tons of homework= not much time. 2.Inari is this sushi thingy. It's sweet, vegetarian, and really good. Especially in soy sauce. 3. Dark side of the moon thingy- it's an album by Pink Floyd. If you turn off the Wizard of Oz (original version) soundtrack, and start the album playing when the lion roars for the third time (or the second lion third time, if you have the reprint) and have the cd player on album repeat, it should line up with the action. I haven't tried it.. 4. Oh. Haha. It's all there on the link from message 147... Oh well. 5. I live in a state of denial.. 6. Not really, but that line's too good to be passed up. 7. Much algebra homework. And a Spanish test tomorrow.. Lizzie! A. yeah, that recipe is like the lizzies we make, except that ours have a few more fruits & nuts in them B. what is Inari ???? C. please explain the dark-side-of-the-moon-wizard-of-OZ-thing i've never heard of it D. speaking of fairy tales has any1 else read the Tolkien Reader, it's a rather good book w/ an essay, several stories, a sort of dialogue, and several more stories E. where are u from Lizzie ? {both imaginary & reality} Namárië Celebriän 146. Woah yuo ppoele hvae bene bsyu! Mae Govannen, Lizzie! I have read the Wizard of Oz. I recently bought a journal made from an old edition of that book. It is very cool. I didn't know that there are sequels. Lizzie- I'm glad that you like CtS! Ic beon na fisc! - guess what language that is???? Paul- Morrowind looks cool! When are you going to write another article for Muse? Your other articles were enthralling. Happy Easter/Purim/Equinox/other to all! Calo anor na ven, ^_^Elassë~Adæl^_^ 145. Even more stuff, junk, and things
-TOPFOT I wrote a haiku (sort of): Ruler of cosmos, Lizzie!! Aw, Lizzie, you don't A. Wah. My spring break was the week before last. But at least we get a three-day weekend... Only it's almost over.. B. No, I didn't know that there was a cookie called that... Is it a good cookie? C. Cookie cookie cookie starts with c!!! D. I've read the Cartoon History of the US, the CH [cartoon history] of the Universe volumes 1, 2, and 3, and the CH of physics and I haven't gotten around to ordering the Smart Pies yet. But I will! I promise! E. I like Greek mythology. I also like other mythology, folk tales, fairy tales, tall tales, and cattails. F. Inari is really really really |
