in February 1st, 2006 @ 11:04Huzzah! We broke the record! Wot’s the Phillis nickel anyway? And wot’s a phantasmagoria? I know it’s probably against the Unwritten Code of Musebloggers to bring up something from the previous month’s thread, but where’s the ‘slide on the ice’ quote from, USECGO? I think Sydney the shrink said that on M*A*S*H, but was from somewhere else first?

in February 1st, 2006 @ 13:07Peoples, this is so not right. Last night, an adult from my youth group called me, and asked me to do a monologue in youth group tonight, less than twenty four hours after she asked me to do it!!!! The script is about three and a half pages long, and it needs to be memorized. I only have about four more hours to get the last page in and rehearse it a few times before I have to give it in front of my entire youth group (aproximately 120 people). I just hope I don’t completely blank out, or leave out all emotion.

in February 1st, 2006 @ 13:59The Chairman doesn’t know where the rhyme came from. His father told it to him. It’s possible it came from M*A*S*H, but I haven’t seen that one if it did. However, terrible poetry fans, my great-uncle wrote a poem called “The Green Peach.” When it is the appropriate season I might post it here.

mg – good luck w/ your monologue. having to recite something that long from memory in front of lots of people can be scary sometimes but as long as you dont think about all the eyes watching you, you wont be 1/2 as nervous

in February 1st, 2006 @ 15:59So we did get Phillis then? YAAY! Now, how do we split it up?
Poor MG. I say that you should forget about whatever they want you to do and recite “Jabberwocky” instead.
JABBERWOCKY
‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe
All mimsy were the borogoves
And the mome raths outgrabe.“Beware the Jabberwock, my son,
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch
Beware the Jubjub bird and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!”He took his vorpal sword in hand
Long time the manxsome foe he sought
So rested he by the Tumtum tree
And stood a while in thought.And as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood
And burbled as it came!One-two! One-two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack
He left it dead, and with its head
He came galumphing back.“And hast thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
Oh frabjous day! Calooh! Callay!”
He chortled in his joy.‘Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe
All mimsy were the borogoves
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 1st, 2006 @ 16:14I love that poem. “The Walrus and the Carpenter” is also excellent. Lewis Carroll (Matthew Dodgson, I think. Not sure about the Matthew part.) should have been knighted. Or was he? Mr. Baker sir, are you listening? Can you help us, sir?
Poor MG. Oh well. I have been reading the Jeeves and Wooster books (hilarious. Required Muser reading) and I have one major question. Why does Jeeves still work for Wooster? The pay was terrible, Wooster’s mentally negligible, and Jeeves works extremely hard for little or no returns. And the sort of people Wooster associates with are frivolous (Miss Bobbie Wickham) or frightsome (Aunt Agatha and cronies) and the job is one of the worst in the world. Like, ever. Oh well. And how old is Jeeves, anyway? Young, I think. Or old. It depends.

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 1st, 2006 @ 17:12Don’t ask me why… Both Billy Joel and Eurythmics used the song title. Wow, that doesn’t happen much, does it. Hmm. A sign from the universe someone’s doing something right.
The girls at my school love this brand called Juicy Couture, which makes shirts that say things like “Juicy Brat” and “Wear Juicy”. It’s also really expensive, so my new project is making a shirt with the slogan “Got Dough? Wear Juicy”. It should kill. Man, satire is FUN.

in February 1st, 2006 @ 17:38making clothes is so fun.
next weekend is the snowcoming dance (like i care) but anyway next week is spirit week + thursday’s pirate day (probably because the alternative group at my school has this strange obsession w/ pirates… i really dont know why, but its cool) my friend + i are definitely going to be pirates! i just need to make a costume…

in February 1st, 2006 @ 19:34I know that one! It means a bunch of moving, surrealistic, random, colorful pictures, like in a dream or a hallucination, right? I think phantasmagorie is creating magical illusions.

MontgomeryGurl
in February 2nd, 2006 @ 11:06I did okay with it!!! I blanked about three times, but I don’t know how much everyone noticed it. I did it because, for some reason, Ms. Cathy didn’t know she would need me to do it until last night, and I was the only one who would. Everyone told me I did good, but they’re all nice, so they can’t be trusted. That’s my philosophy.
Jeeves sticks with Wooster because….. well, he seems to feel that Bertie needs him, and it appears that he became a gentleman’s gentleman for the noble goal of saving the poor silly drones from themselves. His family has always done it, and he was born to be a GG. It’s like…. he’s trying to help out the half wits of the world, and Bertie needs him as much as anyone, so, why not?

The thing i love about you guys is your modesty…
lol i’m kidding please don’t kill me!!! AAAAAHH!!!!!!
Jeeves is cool but I ♥ emsworth more.
Guys, i didn’t even have a chance at first post.
if you’ll believe it i went and got myself banned the night before a new thread opening! baaaad idea… 
People i’m happy…I thought i was gonna be up all night doing the cp for lamuth but guess what? It’s due next friday! Which means i’ll be up all night next thursday doing it, so i can speed-read the next book club book tonight so i can go to the meeting tomorrow. I get no sleep either way, but at least in one i get decent food for once.
Next saturday is solo+ensemble! yay! I’m doing a sweet solo…yeah that’s right. all hail me and my geekiness! WOOHOO!!!
Oh yeah and i have a bag of gummy worms to keep me up+reading tonight! in science, liefield walks in with a bunch of gummy worms (bags that is) and says 50 cents!!! So i bought some. I think it was for enviromental club or something. Which i would join, but it clashes with itk. Which was cancelled today
But that’s ok cuz i was going through my solo thing with schneids.I have WAY too much fun at lunchtime

in February 2nd, 2006 @ 16:06Jeeves DOES leave briefly in “Thank You, Jeeves”. He goes to Lord Chuffnell, then to Stoker, and back to Wooster at W.’s request. Other things happen in between this, but Bertie’s new man, Brinkley, is terrible.

in February 2nd, 2006 @ 17:58I wasn’t paying attention. I was doing other things, like thinking about mi novia (quien yo quiero besar), reading October Sky for my English class, and looking up methods on how to create nitroglycerin so I can blow those I hate to kingdom come! None of that was a joke.
Ebeth the Lurker, that was uncool. Please don’t do that again.

yesterday's_kinked_moose. the dumpster diver
in February 2nd, 2006 @ 20:54We found a completely in-tact fire place screen at the side of the road to-day! It was just waiting for someone weird enough to come about and pick it up. It might be too wide, but it is still a very good find. Any other dumpster divers out there? One of the best chairs in our living room was a side-o’-the-road find. Okay, it has cigarette burns and smelled like smoke for the first couple months, but it’s fine now. USECGO: How should I know if you should grow a mustace? I don’t even know what you look like. Grow a ZZ top beard for all I care. I’ll work on the problem.

in February 2nd, 2006 @ 22:36I left out a few letters on my e-mail address, but I let the MAPs know before they decided I was a creepy internet stalker. Actually, since that time, I’ve got my own e-mail address (the one on there now is my mom’s). Sometimes, I’m tempted to sign in with my new one, with a different name, and become someone totally different. Never telling who I was. That way, I would be able to argue with myself, and I would always have someone to talk to!!! Personally, I think it’s a brilliant idea.

in February 3rd, 2006 @ 06:22I put my yahoo on first and then i was nice and let the GAPA know my mac account (cuz i hardly ever even check my yahoo. it’s mostly for spam-blocking, like i use it to sign up for stuff. And stuff. And yeah) But now they switch a lot (since it’s already there and all). Right now it has my yahoo. I’m sure you all really care but yeah.
MG, you can just argue with your alter ego all in one post. It’s much easier than creating a new identity.
I just finished everything is illuminated (i didn’t start until really late last night/early this morning however you want to look at it) So yeah i’ll review it for you people when i’m awake.

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 3rd, 2006 @ 15:54Grant, I would go with a small mustache. You can always take it off if you want to. (I know, I know. But oh well.)
Doughnuts are your friends, emogrl. You eat them, they’re delicious. OK? Good.
I am making macaroni and cheese at the moment. Sorry, emogrl.. Oh well. Today I wrote out the Jabberwocky (memorized!) and am now on my way to tackling Walrus/Carpenter. Look out!
THE WALRUS AND THE CARPENTER
The sun was shining on the sea,
Shining with all his might:
He did his very best to make
The billows smooth and bright–
And this was odd, because it was
The middle of the night.The moon was shining sulkily,
Because she thought the sun
Had got no business to be there
After the day was done–
“It’s very rude of him,” she said,
“To come and spoil the fun!”The sea was wet as wet could be,
The sands were dry as dry.
You could not see a cloud, because
No cloud was in the sky:
No birds were flying overhead–
There were no birds to fly.The Walrus and the Carpenter
Were walking close at hand;
They wept like anything to see
Such quantities of sand:
“If this were only cleared away,”
They said, “it would be grand!”“If seven maids with seven mops
Swept it for half a year.
Do you suppose,” the Walrus said,
“That they could get it clear?”
“I doubt it,” said the Carpenter,
And shed a bitter tear.“O Oysters, come and walk with us!”
The Walrus did beseech.
“A pleasant walk, a pleasant talk,
Along the briny beach:
We cannot do with more than four,
To give a hand to each.”The eldest Oyster looked at him,
But never a word he said:
The eldest Oyster winked his eye,
And shook his heavy head–
Meaning to say he did not choose
To leave the oyster-bed.But four young Oysters hurried up,
All eager for the treat:
Their coats were brushed, their faces washed,
Their shoes were clean and neat–
And this was odd, because, you know,
They hadn’t any feet.Four other Oysters followed them,
And yet another four;
And thick and fast they came at last,
And more, and more, and more–
All hopping through the frothy waves,
And scrambling to the shore.The Walrus and the Carpenter
Walked on a mile or so,
And then they rested on a rock
Conveniently low:
And all the little Oysters stood
And waited in a row.“The time has come,” the Walrus said,
“To talk of many things:
Of shoes–and ships–and sealing-wax–
Of cabbages–and kings–
And why the sea is boiling hot–
And whether pigs have wings.”“But wait a bit,” the Oysters cried,
“Before we have our chat;
For some of us are out of breath,
And all of us are fat!”
“No hurry!” said the Carpenter.
They thanked him much for that.“A loaf of bread,” the Walrus said,
“Is what we chiefly need:
Pepper and vinegar besides
Are very good indeed–
Now if you’re ready, Oysters dear,
We can begin to feed.”“But not on us!” the Oysters cried,
Turning a little blue.
“After such kindness, that would be
A dismal thing to do!”
“The night is fine,” the Walrus said.
“Do you admire the view?“It was so kind of you to come!
And you are very nice!”
The Carpenter said nothing but
“Cut us another slice:
I wish you were not quite so deaf–
I’ve had to ask you twice!”“It seems a shame,” the Walrus said,
“To play them such a trick,
After we’ve brought them out so far,
And made them trot so quick!”
The Carpenter said nothing but
“The butter’s spread too thick!”“I weep for you,” the Walrus said:
“I deeply sympathize.”
With sobs and tears he sorted out
Those of the largest size,
Holding his pocket-handkerchief
Before his streaming eyes.“O Oysters,” said the Carpenter,
“You’ve had a pleasant run!
Shall we be trotting home again?’
But answer came there none–
And this was scarcely odd, because
They’d eaten every one.

Lusifer Ink.
in February 3rd, 2006 @ 16:04I wrote a very bad parody to Walrus and the Carpenter last year.
The Seal and the Lumberjack
The sunflower was growing,
As tall as he could.
Trying to make the ground look nice,
Positive he would.
But he was out of season,
So it wasn’t any good.The moonflower was angry,
As anyone could see.
The sunflower was the best
But she deserved to be.
“It’s very rude of him,” she said
“To be better then me.”The seal and the lumberjack,
Were trying not to yell
They were upset because
They had tripped on a big shell.
“If only all the shells were gone,”
They said, “It would be swell!”“If eight servants with eight brooms,
Swept for a full day,
Do you suppose,” the seal said,
“That they would have a way?”
The lumberjack shook his head
And all he said was “Nay.”“O Clams do come and talk with us!”
The seal did request.
“A pleasant talk, a pleasant chat,
As we head out West;
We cannot do with more than three,
To give our very best.”Three young clams hurried up,
All eager for the chance.
Their coats were brushed, their ties straight,
This did greatly enhance.
They did not look bad at all,
From a quick first glance.The seal and the lumberjack,
Went on walking for some time,
The seal came to a ledge and said,
“It is now time to dine.”
The lumberjack said nothing but,
“The view is mighty fine.”So the seal ate all the clams,
Every single one.
Though he did it quickly,
It wasn’t very fun.
And when the lumberjack called to the clams,
Answer there came none.Now the seal sits and weeps,
Wishing it wasn’t so,
And hoping with all his might,
The other seals don’t know,
While the lumberjack keeps saying,
“Where did they all go?”If you can’t tell, the Seal felt guilty after eating the clams. That, or indigestion.

He keeps making annoying/ loud/ idiotic noises, and everytime I tell him to stop he and/or my mom start telling me that I have to right to tell him what to do, there’s nothing wrong with what he was doing, etc. The terrible thing is, he thinks those noises are funny.

in February 3rd, 2006 @ 20:17I wish I had an iPod. Everyone has them. Girls at my school talk about them like they are required for life. And the accessories they have for them just scream I AM RICH AND PAID A SQUILLION DOLLARS SO I COULD HAVE MY MUSIC-EMITTING THING ENCASED IN RHINESTONES AND SET IN A DECK TO MAKE THE MUSIC EVEN LOUDER AND MORE ANNOYING!!!!! Which is faintly nauseating. But I do wish I had an iPod.
Phantasmagoric is a synonym for weird. As is strange, odd, extraordinary, peculiar, alien, bizarre, uncanny, eerie, and unusual. Synonym are very good when you’re trying to avoid saying the same word four times in one sentence.
We Musers have so much in common. I love Diana Wynne Jones books, and the Series of Unfortunate Events, and Harry Potter, and Bertie Wooster, and all that good stuff. I love books, period. I read during lunch at school and during class meetings sometimes and on the bus and walking around the school and every time my fellow imbeciles say, “You read too much,” or “That reading thing is getting really creepy,” I smirk, because they obviously cannot find an alternate universe to enjoy whenever they want like I can.
Instead of reading, they watch The OC and One Tree Hill and all those teen soap operas, every night, and complain about it at school in THEIR free time. “I can’t believe Johnny died! Oh, it was so sad! But it wasn’t Ryan’s fault. And I can’t believe Kelly hooked up with him!” Sadly, they have Cheez-Its for brains. They have no imaginations anymore, because they let TV do all the thinking.
Fortunately, I’ve found you Musers to be a most excellent bunch. We’re all smart here.
Naughts and crosses,
Mer

i have a shuffle which rocks and is relatively cheap (although still pretty expensive (especially for a poor job-less teenager(yay self-pity time! Fun times! lol))) Or you could get an mp3. That’s what a lot of people at my skool have.
Or you could be really cool and lug around a record player. Maybe one of the ones you have to wind up by hand. Then people can say “I have an ipod!” and you can be like “pssht, I have a totally awesome record player!”
lol. i’m definitely kidding. Those things are way too big to carry in your pocket.
oh wow. that sounds like some people i know…blech.
I hang out with awesome geeky people though (even if they’re not musers

in February 3rd, 2006 @ 20:36iPods are the root of most evil in the modern world. As are soap operas. Why am I giving Apple money again? I have a huge alphabetized CD collection, and a boombox, and a portable CD player, but no iPod. Yurgh.
I don’t need an alternate universe. I live in one. You see, Mer, baby, dear girl, the thing is this-I study at school. And read, and write out poems I’m trying to memorize. I do not, in fact, socialize, talk to people, or interact more than strictly necessary. And I’m fine. “I am so cool you could keep a side of meat in me for a month. I am so hip I have difficulty seeing over my pelvis. I’m Zaphod Beeblebrox, man!”

I agree with Mer. Coincidentally, I noticed your name “Antepenultimate”. Penultimate means second to last, does it not? So Antepenultimate would mean before second to last. Unless I’m totally off.
I watch House. That’s pretty much it. And I usually miss that anyway, so there’s that as well.

Right you are! My GAPA searching powers tell me that the word cropped up here on December 30 in comment 106 of the Poetry thread.
The only person I’ve ever known to use it in conversation was the inimitable Polly Shulman. Once, while we were discussing changes to a news story she had edited, she said, “There’s one in the antepenultimate paragraph.” No apologies, no explanations. I thought, ” ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ .” Ever since then I’ve been looking for an opportunity to use it myself, but none has arisen. Maybe you’ll get a chance someday.

As did at least 2 of my friends. And we all went to school anyway because there’s too much bloody make-up work and if you miss more than 3 days you can’t exempt any of your exams…. And so we all come to school and pass the germs around. Smart, isn’t it?

A device which you pay to not let you play your songs in the order you want. Pointless, eh? Please don’t kill me, MG. Besides, If I had one I would probably just put it through the laundry by mistake. And record players are great! Bird bird bird, bird id the word… Anyway, I could just tell everyone i have an ipod invisa. Ick. Teen shows. I watch Numbers and Everybody Hates Chris and that’s it. Chris, stop throwin’ cotton balls all over the place! Other than that, if I’m reeeeaaaaally bored, I might watch whatever old weird thing happens to be on. Who likes the Beverly Hillbillies?

in February 4th, 2006 @ 13:06I don’t like doing shuffles, whether on my computer or on mp3 players, because to me, albums are meant to be listened to in order. They have a sort of cohesiveness about them, when they’re done well, that you loose when you’re skipping from track 3 to track 14 to track 11 to track 1 to a totally different album etc. I mean, the greatness of something like Abbey Road totally depends on the order in which it’s played. And also the way they switch from one artist to another is sort of like walking along on grass and then suddenly getting plunged into cold water, and then oops, you’re not in the water anymore, you’re in the middle of the city LOOK OUT FOR THE TAXI and then suddenly you’re on the top of a mountain. It’s like, what happened?

My birthday is August 31, 1992. Makes me younger than most of you, woi eh?
We have rain here. It melted my snow fort terribly, and then my dog jumped all over it so it is a little pathetic lump of slush now.
Er wait, are you talking about the SAT or the SSAT? Hmm. Does it matter?
Antepenultimate means third to last, which I am not in any respect, but I like the word.

OMG i have to tell you this one bit that was really sad though-monica requested cotton eyed joe and by some miracle as yet unheard of in a high skool dance they actually had it and by another odd miracle they actually played it in between the bad rap. So we got in the lines and were dancing it and we looked around and everybody was just standing around clapping and looking confused, and then us 15 or so were up there doing the dance. It was really sad! Nobody knew how to do the cotton eyed joe!!!
That was the first good song. the other two were that one that i don’t know the name of that goes like “i like to move it move it…” it was in madagascar i think. with the weird little furry things. And then they also played love shack, which sounds like a horrible song at first, but after running to it in gym class all through 8th grade it kind of grows on you.
Guys, who’s watching the COMMERCIAL CONTEST?!?!! I am go me!
Does anybody here actually watch the football?
i don’t have to take the SAT until senior year. nyah nyah. i took the PLAN this year, and next year is the PSAT
What’s the SSAT?
We have SNOW! it’s amazing. Like real snow. Yes it’s not even an inch but whatever.

the supreme court should vot to nullify the law of gravity.
now i shall prove that gravity does not exist.
according to the law of gravity, all thing s are MUTUALLY ATRACTED to one another. this is a fatal for two reason.
1. i am most deffinetly NOT atracted to certaiin idiotic biast jerk
who unfortunally are my peers.
2. while very thing is atracte to black holes, black holes are not atracted to aything. there for the atrction is not mutual.\igf any of the above statments are wrong, don’t shoot the messanger, pie kokpelli.

in February 5th, 2006 @ 10:44The SSAT is the thing you take to get into a private high school. It’s bloody easy.
At the school I was in last year, everyone knew Cotton-Eye Joe, but few people know it here. I like that song. I saw Madagascar and the furry things’ dance party was pretty funny. Annoying song, but it does grow on you.
I listen to the radio a lot when I’m doing my homework and I keep hearing this advertisement for Frank’s Red-Hot Hot Sauce. It makes me want Buffalo wings because it sounds good. So the evil ad-makers have won in their battle to make me want their product. Except for the part where I actually go to the store and buy it. Because I never will! Hahahaha!!!!
Asucar es malo. Malo, I say! It makes people hyper. I have this friend at school who once had too much sugar and she stood on a chair and proclaimed, “I am Christopher Columbus!”

in February 5th, 2006 @ 11:33I happen to hate that song because I think it is stupid and anyway I can’t stand disco, but in context with the dancing lemurs it was very funny.
The king lemur was a control freak, though. (“I like to move it move it, he likes to move it move it, she likes to move it move it, you like to move it move it, that bird over there likes to move it move it…”)
After my friends and I saw it, though, we were walking around the school going, “…And ripping out limbs off!” and laughing hysterically. Everybody pretty much ran away.

in February 5th, 2006 @ 15:11I love my shuffle feature. Some albums, especially the Dire Straits ones, are meant to be listened to in order. But nearly everything else I like to mix and redo. And besides, it’s more interesting. Like dim sum. Except not. You know what I mean.
I am currently trying to read all of P.G. Wodehouse. Wodehouse (1881-1975) wrote over seventy books and was knighted in 1975. I am also thinking of doing a “Jeeves and Wooster: The Next Generation” in the 60s, detailing the adventures of Wooster’s son employing Jeeves’s son. With appropriate help from the originals. I might have to wait, though.

in February 5th, 2006 @ 16:53No, wait, I just figured out what ‘enigma’ meant. Changed one answer and came out with Unicorn. Hold on–
You are a unicorn
Elegant, graceful and strong. Unicorns possess an inner power that is without equal in the world. They could stare down even a dragon with their calm deep eyes, yet their nature is restless and they are always on the move. Going where they want to, for they symbolize freedom and mystery.
Visit the pixie forest at chasing the sunset, and see what species YOU are.

in February 5th, 2006 @ 19:08Man, last night I went to the movies with my girlfriend, a buddy, and his girlfriend. It was fun! Except for the movie. Just for kicks, I saw “When a Stranger Calls,” and it SUCKED. If you haven’t seen it yet but want to, don’t. You will waste eight bucks. In case you’re planning on seeing it, I should spoil the ending, right here, right now. That would be easier if there had been an actual plot. During the movie I kept losing circulation to my arm, but it was worth it. So was getting a horrible cramp. After the movie, we went across the street to Arabica and got drinks and talked for a reeeaaaalllly long time. It was fun!
I finished October Sky in 38 hours. The book was better than the movie. I haven’t been able to get to the library, so I haven’t read anything good besides that lately.

in February 6th, 2006 @ 17:38emo, d’ya live in Oregon?
Okay, just joking. I like making fun of Oregon, even though it is one of my favorite states.I had a misadventure today, along with Sphinx and Lusifer, Ink. Here goes:
Our bus came late. TWO HOURS LATE. After we have been waiting for about 30 to 45 minutes, a tiny little bus comes, a twelve seater, which would be fine if there weren’t 50 people on our bus. So the tiny bus tries to call dispatch, but he can’t get through. We wait, and I am about to call my mom to carpool as many kids as we can when the supervisor says that the bus is coming, so I stop calling and wait 15 minutes, dunring which the bus does not come. So I call again on the borrowed phone and so do L&S to ask if we can go with a teacher who is a close personal friend of our various families, and our parents say yes. Then the teacher says, “oh look, the bus came,” and so the potential carpool teacher, so we say never mind and hang up. Then we turn around and discover that the bus is…the old mini bus. We wait for a few minutes in case the bus is coming up the drive or summat, and the teacher leaves. We realize there is no bus, panic, and begin to run toward her car, which is down the drive and we could reach, she is just about to dump her stuff in it. But as we are running the evil teacher (the other one is noce, just annoyed) stops us and makes us tell her th ewhole story, so the teacher leaves and we can’t get on. The evil teacher tells us to stay and wait, so we do. After about a half-hour the mini bus takes some kids home, but only the ones that get off on a certain stop. We get exasperated and freezing so we go inside and call our parents on a borrowed cell phone. My mother calls my dad, who was shopping nearby, to come get me. Just after I hang up the big bus, comandeered from the high school, shows up. Grr. So all the kids that, like us, have ‘rides’ stay inside waiting for them, and the teachers give us a lecture on how we should have been patient and trusted the school (yeah right) and not called our parents, or else called them fist off. We try to explain that the reason we didn’t call our parents earlier is that the teachers told us not to, and then we called them which turned out to be a mistake. My father gets there and I take a friend who has no ride home. Finis. But I have a lot of homework, and not enough time to do it in. Grr.

It never snows here. Ever. We can wear T-shirts most of the time, even in winter. Today was a rare exception, I needed a hoodie. Once, when I was nine, it snowed eight inches. That’s the most snow I’ve ever seen around here. It’s never come anywhere near that since. Ever.

in February 7th, 2006 @ 09:59You know what’s really annoying? Overprotective friends. Ebeth, a friend of mine is convinced you’re a stalker. She saw your comments on my Xanga, and she wanted to know where I met you. “A chat room type thingie.” “How did she get your Xanga?” “I gave it to her.” She basically had a fit. She said there was no telling who you were, and you could come into my house and kidnap me, or something. And then when I told her I gave you my AIM, you should’ve seen it. I’m like “I met her in a chat room, and she’s been there for longer than I have, and there’s never been any problems. I was the one who first asked about Xanga, not her. She belongs to a blogring for a high school, and her friends come and comment. This would have to be one elaborate set up, just to fool me. And she’s never said anything to make me worry. And even if she was a stalker, all she’s got is my AIM and Xanga. If she starts to creep me out, I’ll just change both of those, and cut contact.” Grrrrr.
She’s not just overprotective about you, Ebeth. I go to this chat room for a Christian band. We hand around, and talk about all sorts of stuff. There’s one place to post prayer requests, and stuff like that. I posted a request for some of my friends who are really struggling. This girl, who’s my age (I’ve seen a picture of her, by the way, and her mom is on the chat room), sent my a private message through the site. She just wanted me to talk about what was going on in my life. We PMed back and forth, and then she wanted to send me something that was too long for a private message. So I gave her my e-mail. We hadn’t talked in a few days, and I saw her AIM on her public profile. So I sent her a message. It turns out, she was helping another lady from the chat room (or boards), who is dying of an eating disorder. We talked about it, and it was just really good. By the end of the night, Alex (the girl I was talking to) really felt that the lady was going to be healed. She thanked me for talking with her, and praying. I told my friend the story, and she was like “you should really be careful about these people”. I don’t think she realizes how many online friends I do have that I don’t give my AIM and Xanga to, because I’m being careful. She completely missed the point of the story, and it rather upset me.

Hey guys, i wore my awesome geeky koko shirt today!!! and then in science we finished a lab and were talking about geeky shirts just in general, and andy pulls out this catalog and OMG funny geek shirts!!! A lot of it was computer stuff (1+1=10 (andy had to explain that one to me. It’s binary), pi, lots of windows jokes
some pretty sweet stuff) but it had some other cool stuff too, like a picture of einstein made entirely out of little e=mc2 things (like y’know those pictures made out of all dots? Like that.) and a model of a choklit atom (except they spleled it rong!!!) ME WANTS! So yeah we spent the rest of class grabbing it from each other and explaining the jokes to lizzy, who didn’t get any of it. Fun times…Oh and i found out my solo time. 9:40. AAAH! Me+morning=No. (ooh fun math) oh vell, at least it’s not 8 or something.

in February 7th, 2006 @ 15:16I hate Inheritance. Not because it’s a terrible copy of the Belgariad, but because it’s so [censored] BORING. I can write more interesting stuff than Paolini, and I’m 13. (Course, that’s not hard…)
A-C may be moving to Oregon.
emogrl, do you live in DC or something? They have terrible weather, though not as bad as here.And I thought that the OEADs weren’t letting us give out contact info like AIM and Xanga ‘n’ stuff? Are we allowed to now?

in February 7th, 2006 @ 15:33i posted a lot last night, and i didn’t get a single ‘awaiting moderation’ post until comment 29 on the larry gonick thread. thats why i kissed the blog. i didn’t change servers, but if you post once and then change your name and post again, you can only see the comments you posted with the last name you posted with. but i don’t think that happened to me… im not sur.
and if you really want to give people info (i really wouldn’t recommend it) you can ask them their nationstates nation and telegram them.

If anyone needs proof thjat this site is safe, the fact that I am on it proves it. My dad used to be a computer programmer and he is ULTRA protective (coughparanoidcough)
Before he lets me go to a site, he lurks for a week or two. If he decides it’s okay, he googles everyone on the site to see what websites they go on, and makes sure they have NEVER done ANYTHING suspicious. Then he lets me on, if I let him see a printout of everything I say and is said to me. I don’t have to do a printout of this site, which shows how good it is.

ok so i see not a lot of people are crazy about inheritance. you know, i guess i can see why. the plot line is one of the more over used ones. oh well, i’d really like to find a new book that doesnt have an over used plotline

in February 7th, 2006 @ 17:20The half-time show may have sucked, but at least there weren’t any Wardrobe Malfuntions. Unless you count mick jagger’s shirt. I would have been much obliged if it was about a foot longer. And his sleeves too. Eww, old man arms. *sings*I can’t get no sensible clo-othes. Usually, I don’t watch the Super Bowl, but I had my reasons this year. There’s nothing inherently wrong with American football, it’s just that everyone takes it SO seriously (around here, anyway) and prectically worships the players. Plus a game take FOREVER with all the timeouts and such.

Mick Jagger has had four blood transfusions. Did you know that? I didn’t watch the Superbowl, I was catching up with some Jeeves and Wooster. (Go Jeeves! Yar boo sucks, Gregson!) The Stones were chosen because they’re safe. Ruby Tuesday is my favorite Stones song. David Byrne should play during the next Super Bowl. That would be fabulous.

Pretty hard to run a fan page if you’re a corpse. You’re fingers would keep falling off as you typed.

in February 7th, 2006 @ 18:15Yep. Nation States. We exchanged Xanga sites. Neither of us were very suspicious about the other person (Come on, you don’t really think Ebeth is a stalker, do you? And you trust me, right?). We didn’t think it violated the spirit of the blog, since we weren’t exposing other innocents to our links. That was our logic. Anyway, even if we hadn’t exchanged on Nation States, I could’ve just plugged everything Ebeth had posted about her alter ego’s site into Xanga’s search engine, and probably come up with Bob’s blog.

I have both Koko and Urania shirts, one of each, and they are huge and I love them. They are going to be pajamas at camp. I also wear them all the time.
Tomorrow I will shock everyone by wearing a long black dress I love. I’m not Goth but ska-bop. I am also working on a new Team Emu short story (you love Team Emu. Team Dodo died in a mysterious aesthetics torture some months before.) and some rewrites on the very worst scenes in The Frangarshion.

in February 7th, 2006 @ 19:32Lusifer Ink., you are the same height as my mom. Being short never stopped her from impressing people.
Over her career she has done lots of important things. Among her accomplishments: she ran successful political campaigns for herself and others, she was elected to the county council, and became the head of the council (the “chair”). And later she was a lobbyist — not a sleazy one but a lobbyist for the cause of good.
She got laws passed that improved health and education for people in the county where she lives.Now she has retired and has become an artist. I’ve got two of her prints hanging in my office. Yay mom!
Short people have what it takes.
I feel bad for Robert, though. He’s tall.

most of my friends are short to medium size, but i’d say the most extreme are sam, matt, and jen.
First off, jen and matt are both REALLY tall. (Jen’s in MI, matt’s in OOHI) about the same height i think. probably over six feet.
Sam(antha) is the shortest person i know. She wears shoes with really thick heels (not high heels, more like platforms) and she’s still shorter than the rest of us. ok anybody who knows the schuler’s in GR, y’know they have those short shelves? well for everybody else, they do. And sam is shorter than them.

in February 8th, 2006 @ 19:15Okay, that previous post was NOT me! My sister typed that. Here is the story:
Fact: I was on spaceship Heart of Gold, reprogramming the nutro-matic.
Fact: my little sister was hanging around the computer making annoying remarks.
Fact: I ask her to leave.
Fact: she ignores me.
Fact: I yell at her.
Fact: she moves closer.
Fact: This progresses for some time.
Fact: I am so annoyed that I attempt to save, but fail twice.
Fact: I try to type in a command, but for some reason it goes into the surf bar at the top and the web site is almost lost.
Fact: I press the back button.
Fact: The game is lost.
Fact: I yell at my sister.
Fact: my sister yells back.
Fact: I go to Museblog to try and type in my game.
Fact: my sister, who is still hanging around, bangs on the keyboard because I am trying to tell how she lost the game for me. Every time I reach for it she bangs and almost crashes the computer.
Fact: I call the mom-police.
Fact: my mom can’t hear

in February 8th, 2006 @ 19:19oops, she banged on the keyboard again. Okay, from there:
Fact: my mom can’t hear and so I leave to go tell her.
Fact: she says my sister needs to take a bath and I go back.
Fact: my beloved sibling is typing post #264. Right before I get to her she sends it.
Fact: my mom gives me authorization to tell this story because she is screaming and being immature. She messes up the post twice and sends it once.
finis.
yes, this is my sister the musical prodigy…but in a snit.
Now I have to start the game again. Bugrit, millenium hand and shrip.
By the by, if you need proof that #264 is fake, look at how she spelled my name, a mistake which I would never make.

in February 9th, 2006 @ 14:31um, actually you should probably type ‘get all’ and then ‘get’ when you are in the house and on the porch, and after mr prosser lies down in the mud, to get the toothbrush and junk mail and towel and screwdriver, because you never know when you might need this stuff. and after you ‘hichhike’ keep typing smell and then examine, and then eat the peanuts, otherwise you will die. i got stuck when i tried to get a babel fish.

in February 9th, 2006 @ 15:50I’ve sort of figured out how to get a Babel fish. Take off your dressing gown, hand it on the hook, take Ford’s towel and put it over the drain, take his satchel and put it over the robot panel, and then I can’t figure out how to stop the “upper-half-of-the-room cleaning bot” from taking the fish as it flies through the air.

You could sing cheeseburger in paradise. You could ponder your sudden fixation with cheeseburgers. You could eat a cheeseburger (and say so). You could splel choklit rite. You could put babel fish in your ear. You could conclude by this post that i’m procrastinating (and be absolutely right). You could wonder about the pie half-hidden behind my back. You could step back slowly…and run. I could throw the pie after you, and miss, hitting Kokopelli instead. Kokopelli could throw the pie back at me. We could start Pie War II. We could discuss in great detail the events leading up to pie war II. Or pie war 1 for that matter. Or WWI. Or you could do my history hw for me (which is the same thing, almost). Or you could ignore me and listen to some of the saner musebloggers.

in February 10th, 2006 @ 10:38‘Ello, all. Last night I did not post b/c I was babysitting for my two small brothers and medium sister for SIX HOURS. Sister was helpful, my older brother was good, but my baby (ok, toddler, h’es 1 and 1/2) brother was insane and uncooperative ALL night. And my brother refused to fall asleep untill I played him music on my clarinet, and my sister until I assured her of the safety of the house from robbers/murderers/fires/insane rioting penguins (okay, not that last one) and both of them wanted me to sing them to sleep, which I did.
I couldn’t get my toddler brother to sleep until eleven o’clock, and then only by dumping him in the bed and laying down next to him and blocking his escape route. My parents got home at half past midnight (they were at a wedding) and I didn’t get any homework done b/c by the time I was free I was too tired, so I get today off. That at least was nice.

in February 10th, 2006 @ 12:00I wonder if Muse would do an article on synesthesia? I’m really curious about it, and if you can have it if it can be so small as just tingles running up the left side of your torso whenever you hear a squeak.

in February 10th, 2006 @ 12:14Can I just be sad over here, with no explanation? Ebeth knows what’s up with me. I just want to cry. Yes, I truly do. I want give up and stop caring. I’m tired of helping, I’m tired of watching a fight I know is being lost. I feel incredibly helpless. If anyone really cares, ask me and I’ll tell you what’s wrong.

in February 10th, 2006 @ 16:06Most people start by saying a few things about themselves (general likes and dislikes, how long you’ve read Muse–the sort of thing you might put in a letter to Muse Mail). Then, within a few posts, they usually get very silly.
You might want to start over in “Welcome, Newcomers.” It’s about time it was actually used to welcome a newcomer.
That reminds me: Welcome, newcomer!

in February 10th, 2006 @ 16:54Hi, Jadestone. So, tell us a little about yourself. A lot of us Musers are booklovers. Some, like MontgomeryGurl, are major fans of the classics. Others are crazy about fantasy. Quite a few are big on Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. We have a whole thread devoted to HG2G’s author Douglas Adams here — so if you’re curious about that, check it out. Do you like to read books? If so, what are your faves??

in February 10th, 2006 @ 18:37Phoenix, nothing is wrong with me. It’s just that my best friend is destroying herself. I knew she was struggling with an eating disorder, but I thought she was getting better. Last night, she told me that on Saturday she took laxatives, and Sunday she made herself throw up. I mean, a ton of laxatives. Eight teaspoons one day, six the next. That does a ton of damage to the body. She wouldn’t listen to me, I tried to reach out and help her, but she kind of blew me off. I told her to call me next time she felt like she needed to do something like that, and she acted like she would be able to handle it on her own. I know she can’t.
What really scared me, is that she told me right before she threw up, she looked in the mirror “and it was like my stomach was just hanging out, like I was six months pregnant.” Seeing fat that isn’t there is basically full blown anorexia.
Before, she promised me she would go to counselling. Now she’s going back on that. I’m watching her fall deeper and deeper into a pit. It’s like a bad dream.
I’m living my worst nightmare, seeing my best friend slip into complacency about a disease that is killing her. She won’t listen anymore, she doesn’t seem to care what people tell her. Last night, I was talking to another friend about this, and she quoted a truly terrifying statistic. Only 10% of anorexics recover. The rest die of something eating disorder related. I’m so scared I’m watching her kill herself.
I’m just so tired of this. I’m the only one she really confides in, she trusts me and one other girl. It’s too much pressure. I feel like I’m the only one holding her accountable, and this job is way too big. I can not tell her mom. If I do, my friend will freak out and will stop telling me stuff. If that happens, then she won’t confide in anyone, and this thing will get huge.
It seems like ever time I have a real conversation with her, I find out she’s in deeper than I ever imagined. This is scaring me, really badly.

in February 10th, 2006 @ 21:08MG: this is some advice for you + your friend. and one could call it fairly credible because i was going through the same thing 2 yrs ago
1… your friend is obviously insecure w/ the way she looks. make sure to compliment her on her new clothes, great personality, etc every chance you get. having happiness + a good personality is far more important than being thin.
2… one way to feel better about yourself is to find a sport that you like. maybe you + your friend could find one or you could just help your friend find one. when i started taking gymnastics last year i found that i felt a lot better after a work out on the // bars – it almost burns off anger too. ok so i quit after one season, but it was the thing that helped me get away from anorexia the most.
3… when you have an eating disorder, youll usually end up not eating for a very long time, then get such strong cravings that you end up loading up on junk after starving for maybe 12 hrs. after that, youll feel extremely guilty + not eat for another 12 hrs. to stop this vicious cycle, one needs to find some healthy foods that they like. if their trying to end an eating disorder, having 6 healthy snack type things a day really helps. and always drink a lot of H2O + maybe tea.
3… STEAL YOUR FRIENDS SCALE. tough love but it works.
4… if you start needling someone their eating disorder chances are theyll get really mad + there will be fireworks so you might not want to do that. instead, tell a trusted adult about your friends problem. + drop hints on what you think of her health, but dont get all over her case.
5… when i had that problem, i experienced a lot of bad side effects. a lot of my hair fell out, and i would randomly collapse maybe once or twice a week. just walking someplace or doing house chores made me incredibly dizzy. hopefully thats enough to scare anyone away from making the same mistake.
6… good luck. its great that youre taking such an active role in helping your friend out of this.

in February 10th, 2006 @ 21:21MG, that is scary. I can’t say I really understand what you’re going through, because I don’t know anyone with an eating disorder. I have one piece of advice though. (advice comes in pieces, right?) Seeing as how we have a religion in common, praying for her is always a good idea. I’ll pray for her too. Here’s something from 2nd Chronicles when the Israelites are battling, um…. someone. I didn’t read it in context, okay? I just sort of flipped into it. Hope it helps. “For we have no power to face this vast army that is attacking us. We do not know what to do, but our eyes are upon You.” skipping ahead past some weird names and stuffs…”Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God’s.”

in February 10th, 2006 @ 21:47Why is drinking a lot of water suggested for almost every disorder known to man? I don’t really see how that would help, but hey I’m no doctor. Keeps things moving along I suppose…

in February 10th, 2006 @ 22:04Drinking water works for people with eating disorders because they don’t think it will make them fat, and while they still need to eat, at least they’re getting something from the water. At least, that was my take on it.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 09:24We’ve decided to give her an ultimatum, “either you tell your mom in two weeks, or I’m telling for you.” We have to do that. She’s destroying her body at a rapid pace, and every day she becomes more depressed. I look in her eyes, and my friend is gone. She’s turning to stone right before my very eyes. She’s dying, physically and emotionally. If something happened to her, we woud never be able to forgive ourselves. It’s a real possibility that she might not live a whole lot longer. Laxatives and throwing up are terrible for the body, and I think if she gets much more depressed, suicide could really be something to fear. Like one friend said “I don’t care if she hates me for the rest of her life, just as long as she’s got the rest of her life to do it.” So that’s what we’re doing. I’m going to have to be the one to approach her. Now I really want to have it over with. I want to start the ball rolling, and begn getting my friend back.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 12:16That’s really really good you’re doing that MG, but you do still need to tell her mom. From the way you described it, she seems pretty far along, and she needs more than just stopping. I really think you should tell her mom as soon as you can.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 12:43Speaking seriously, as an adult: anorexia/bulimia is a medical problem. You or someone should talk to a medical professional–a doctor, a nurse, a physician’s assistant–as soon as possible. That might be easier than telling your friend’s parents, and it may be the quickest way of getting her the help she needs.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 14:52MG, do you really want to give her two weeks or do something right now? Obviously it’s troubling you. And wouldn’t you feel better if you told your parents? I keep my friend’s secrets because I want them to keep mine, but this is a secret I don’t think you should keep. Which adult do you trust the most? Who would be most likely to help if you were in trouble? Someone from church? Prayers for both of you.

Jeeves and Wooster, with Hugh Laurie and Stephen Frey.MG-Call her parents when you know she’s not home and tell them . If you think they won’t believe you, get your parents to do it for you. A girl at my school died of anorexia a couple years ago (I didn’t know her) and it was really, really sad because she was very talented. It doesn’t matter if she hates you, she’ll at the very least be alive to do it.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 16:08Well, I figure I want to give Rebekah a chance to tell her parents. A deadline for when she has to have told them. I know it’ll seem better for her parents to hear it from her. It wouldn’t be fair to Rebekah to tell on her without giving her a chance to tell. Maybe only a one week time frame. But she needs to have a chance. As far as me and my other friend can figure out, the first step is to get her parents knowing. After that, they can get her the help she needs.

Something’s up with the blog. It wouldn’t work until I Googled it and found the page, rather than just picking it out of my bookmarks or even typing it in. What’s going on?
MG- She could just say she’s told her parents, which is what my friend did when she started cutting. If she says she’s told them but nothing seems to be happening, you need to talk to them or some sort of medical professional. I don’t know your friend, and she could be a very trustworthy person, but you can’t afford to take chances.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 17:24MG, how horrible! I don’t know what to say. Thank God no one I ever knew (and hopefully no one I ever will) has had an eating disorder, so I just simply want to help in some way, and can’t. It’s such an awful feeling.
However, my advice is to call someone–now. from what I have heard about anorexia and similar conditions, it just gets worse as time goes on. Your friend needs help, and badly. And don’t just call a school nurse, either, you should first tell your parents and then call the hospital.
I hope to God your friend gets better.

in February 11th, 2006 @ 17:25i posted a rather long post here at five or so, and when i clicked submit i got a wordpress database error message, and i assume that means it didn’t submit because its not up here. the main points of it were that my parents made me vaccum even though the vac was dead, and that i had been campaigning for a new vac ever since my mother expressed wishes to go to disney world and i said that i wanted a new vaccum cleaner and hi-speed internet that worked instead, and that various persons got annoyed that i had hidden the mice to the computer so that nobody could go on because its really hard to get people to get off the computer and then i had to give up a mouse and when i was finished vaccuming sure enough they wouldn’t get off the computer, and the internet had left so i was forced to use aol and the guacamole was dead and someone was going to ask me to walk the dog any second now. seconds after typing this my mother asks me to walk the dog, and i mention that we are babysitting a dog which is a pain because we already have every type of pet but a dog.
that about sums it up. on the bright side, my internet is back!

in February 11th, 2006 @ 17:49I’m walking on sunshine. I just talked to Rebekah, and I think she’s finally made it. She told me that last night she told her parents (yes, I know, she could be lying, and I’ll still keep my eyes open), and they took it well. She apologized to me for pushing me away, and for treating me badly (I didn’t notice a whole lot of this, but apparently it was there). She told me she doesn’t think she’ll want to throw up or take laxatives anymore. She recommitted her life to Christ (for you Christians out there), and she’s admitted that she was angry at God. But what really convinced me, she started crying over the phone. For a long time, she’s been really hard, and has hated expressing emotion. Crying was a major break through. I’m going to watch her, still, and I know this battle isn’t over, but I think she’s made a major turn around.

You mentioned soap on the “Out With the Old, In With the New” thread. I think you were discussing how you spent New Year’s Eve. (You called yourself Ishmael in those days.)

i’d give you neopoints li, except i don’t know your name, and if i went on i’d probably be overcome with guilt over my dying neopet and feed it, which would result in the disappearance of almost all my np.

in February 12th, 2006 @ 17:00Go censor your veggietales comments on the thread reserved for that purpose.
Today I did something incredibly stupid. I was taking a test that I ran out of time for and had to do at home, and having a lot of trouble which made no sense as I had spent about four hours studying for it. Then when I was 3/4 of the way through, having done all I could, I looked at the top of the test and realized that, instead of being on chapters six, seven, and eight as I thougt it was, the stupid thing was on chapters five, six, and seven. Luckily it was an open book test, but the book was in Hebrew and I can’t read as fast in Hebrew as I can in English, so it took me a while to finish and I am not sure about two of the answers, b/c of course I couldn’t study chapter 5 as I knew the questions. Grr.

Queen Julietaini the Froody. Kiador. (Queenie J)
in February 12th, 2006 @ 17:47I just actually cleaned my room. *gasp* I’m feeling fine, thank you. I also did my homework for this weekend, and I think I’m going to be OK and not die of stress in 5 years like I thought I would a year ago. (Wait a minute…4 years now! Holy Zarquon singing fish!)
VeggieTales is WAY too “Earnest, good-hearted Christian vegetables moralizing their nutritous way through a wicked, greasy world” for me. Ugh. Wait, the only good-hearted vegetable would be artichokes. I just look at them and think “Mmm, delicious”. Same with those little bunny cartoons. I can be a cynic if I wanna be a cynic.
The school is really pumping up the anti-smoking campaigns. As rebellious and cool as it is to smoke, smoker’s breath makes me want to send those VeggieTales characters back to where they came from, if you know what I mean. So I’m not smoking. Note, however, Joe Strummer’s cigarette-behind-the-ear style in the Clash’s album cover for “Combat Rock”. At least I think that’s Joe Strummer. It doesn’t exactly look a lot like him, but I can identify everyone else. QED.

in February 12th, 2006 @ 18:01Uh, wouldn’t putting a cigarette behind your ear set your face on fire? I think Blackbeard put matches in his hair, though, and I don’t think he ever caught on fire. Or maybe he did, and he thought it ruined his pirate image to be on fire so he killed all witnesses or summat.

I think He wants us to get Rebekah into counselling. I think He’s warning us, that if we don’t do something more, she’s going to slip back in worse than ever. So I’m going to talk to Rebekah, and tell her what I’m feeling about this, and see if that’ll make her get help. I think she’s really good now, but there’s another step we’re all supposed to take.

I built an improbability drive! It keeps sending me to the Bugblatter beast, and I can’t get past it. And I THEORETICALLY found out how to get past the screening door, but I can’t figure out how to phrase it. I want to show him (spoiler alert)
how I have no tea, b/c I looked up “intelligence” in the guide and it described it as being able to process contradictory situations, like having and not having a stomachache at the same time and having the hole without the doughnut. I thought having no tea as a tangible object would qualify, but “show/give/throw/whatever no tea at/to door” does not work. If anyone figures this puzzle out I would be grateful.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 12:26I can help you get past the bugblatter beast. If you don’t want to know, don’t read on.
Spoiler alert
Tell the beast your name, which is Arthur. Then run east out of the liar. You pick up a rock, and consult the guide about the beast. You should find out that the Beast is amazingly stupid, and thinks that if you can’t see it, it can’t see you. So cover your head with the towel. that gives you a few minutes. Carve your name on the memorial. The beast will think it must have eaten you already, and go to sleep. Go back into the liar, then go sw.
I’ve gone to the Bugblatter Beast, been Ford, been Trillion, been Zaphod, been in the War Room, but not all in the same game. I keep messing up and having to start over.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 13:14MontgomeryGurl, it’s great that your friend has decided to try to put her eating disorder behind her. But I think you’re right that that’s a very hard thing to do without help from other people.
If she’s already spoken to her parents, maybe you should speak to them too and see whether they’re taking any practical steps, such as getting her into counselling. Are there other adults you can talk to as well? Your own parents, your doctor, someone from your church?
Rebekah is going through something very serious–and so are you, as we’ve seen by how upset you’ve been on this thread. It could help you to talk about it with someone who has the resources to help.

I’m not a big peanut butter person. Cloudberry, lingonberry, currant, and Nutella I can rock with, but peanut butter I’m not so into. Maybe a “Spreads” thread?

in February 13th, 2006 @ 19:05521, 523- “I Hold Your Hand In Mine” is correct. (“Of all the songs I’ve ever sung, that is the one I’ve had the most requests not to.”-Revisited) “Masochism Tango”, a truly insurgent 60s satirical gem always reminds me of “Hit Me With Your Best Shot” by Ian Dury and the Blockheads. Not quite the same mood, but startlingly similar, don’t you think? I also sang “Lobachevsky” in school the other day. That’s the one imitating Danny Kaye that goes “Plagiarize, let no one else’s work evade your eyes, remember why the good lord made your eyes, so don’t shade your eyes, but plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize” and so forth. You should have SEEN my teacher’s face.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 19:08I went with God. I talked to her. She seemed to be pretty receptive. She told me that for the last two days, she’s really been shutting herself off to everyone. She could feel herself getting harder, more closed. She told me the reason, but it’s pretty complicated. Anyway, she was starting to realize that it wasn’t just “that easy”. She was starting to see that there was a long road ahead of her. She agreed to pray about counselling. I told her “Rebekah, Natalie (another girl Rebekah’s close to) and I can help you, and talk to you, but in the end we aren’t really qualified to be your counsellors. You need someone who’s trained to find exactly what you’re doing wrong, and tell you how to fix them.” “Well, Amanda, can we try doing just you and Natalie until NCFCA nationals (speech league we compete in, nationals are in June)?” “Rebekah, I know you can fall back into this very quickly. I’m really not willing to risk it for so long a period of time.” “Okay, after the Baton Rouge tournament, then (that’s in a week in a half). If, after that, I’m not doing really good, I’ll get help. I mean that, Amanda. If I have any bad thoughts, fall back at all, I’ll go.” I was really glad she was so receptive. I think she realized that she could fall very easily, and she needed a way to ensure her own safety. She didn’t seem at all upset about what I was telling her, and she agreed to talk to her mom about what I was feeling, and she told me they would all pray about it. I’m pretty relieved.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 19:28Well, I know that. I guess you could just substitute “think about” for “pray about”. I would’ve left out the references to God, because I know a lot of people on here don’t believe that, but I just couldn’t tell the story without God. The whole feeling seemed to be from Him, and I guess that for me He’s so much a part of everything, I can’t leave Him out. Plus I figured the Christians on here would appreciate it.
Anyway. She’s got a real chance now. Counselling…. it could do her a world of good. I suggested family counselling (she’s got a lot of issues with and in her family) and she found the idea interesting. I don’t think it’d ever occurred to her before, and she was trying to think it through. But maybe they’ll go. I hope so. Rebekah takes things to heart that her family doesn’t mean that way, and with a sister who seriously needs anger management therapy, they need someone unbiased and objective help them figure out how to deal with this stuff, and make Rebekah feel accepted and safe at home.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 20:04Okay, I need to get back to my normal routine and talk about a few completely unimportant, trivial and random things. A good friend involved in the whole Rebekah thing told me that I’ve been letting my happiness get too tied to Rebekah, and I’ve let her situation consume me, and in the end it was just going to get me hurt. So I’m going to write about something else.
Today I had a class on Shakespeare. Yes, I am homeschooled, but someone agreed to teach this for the high schoolers in our homeschool group. He’s the same guy who taught the Milton thing. Kind of funny, but apparently I was one of the only people in that class who actually got what Milton was saying, and who understood the explanation Dr. Potts gave us. Kind of freaked me out, I didn’t know my friends were that clueless. I mean, I thought Dr. Potts did a real good job explaning what all the symbolism was, and junk like that.
I’ve got globs of friends now. Speech and debate. The internet. It’s all miraculous if you’re looking for cool people. I’ve got more close friends now than I had acquaintances a few years ago. I hope a few of them will call me tonight, since AIM is gone now *is sad*. Yes, AIM is gone. Our computer was acting up, and we had to shut it down and completely reboot everything and reinstall everything, and then the AIM icon was missing. So I need to figure out how to get it back on, and redownload it, but only after I’m sure the computer is fine. So. I don’t have that anymore.

(that means, essentially, have a quick and whole recovery.)
It’s a good idea to get her to a counsler, to help her heal and stave off any other possible issues or relapses.
I hate Valentine’s Day. Mostly b/c a lot of people don’t realize that it is a Paegan festival celebrating the fertility of birds. Also b/c I hate all that pink.
However, I might have a good time watching people make fools of themselves

in February 13th, 2006 @ 20:19Hey, I recently got labeled as a ‘geek’ and ‘not normal’ because in class the other day, I overhear someone saying ‘Homer’. So I looked up and began to talk about the Iliad and the Odessy and how much I liked them, and how glad I was that someone other than me had read them in the class. So the people talking look up and give me the eyeball, like I am crazy, and ask me what on earth I am babbling about. So I give THEM the eyeball, and begin to say things like “uh…Homer? You know…grey-eyed Athene…Troy…Andromeda…” because I havent realized that they are talking about Homer SImpson. I am weirded out that what first comes to their minds upon hearing the word “Homer” is Homer Simpson; they are horrified to think that I think of the Greek poet Homer. So they tell me I am abnormal. I think that is just sad.

Although, personally, I believe normal is a myth, like triangles and North Dakota.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 20:53I’ve never read Homer, but when someone says Homer, the first thing to pop into my head is definitely not Homer Simpson.
My cousin read Homer the other year. She read me a few passages. It was completely revolting. I’ve decided to remain an uncultured Philistine (In this context, Philistine is someone who does not appreciate great art, including literature. I am not referring to the ancient people who terrorized Israel. I promise there are two definitions).

in February 13th, 2006 @ 21:09I’m glad that Rebekah is recovering! I think that seeing a counsler is a good idea since they can give her profesional help that you and your friend can’t. It is important to talk to her about how she feels. I hope she continues to improve and feel better about herself!
I would think about Homer the writer not Homer Simpson also.

in February 13th, 2006 @ 22:25The Odyssey has been my favorite story ever since I was seven. Odysseus is such a survivor! Every time he washes ashore, the first thing he does is make up a new lie–just like Huckleberry Finn and Lyra Belaqua. When he finally makes it back to Ithaca and Athena meets him in disguise, he lies to her, and she shakes her head and smiles fondly and says, “Man, you are really something. You lie just like a god.” You can tell that he’s her favorite mortal, just as old Argos is his favorite dog.

Surely after thousands of years of practice we can find something better to laugh at than a drunken, idiotic father telling his son he’ll see him in hell. Yich.

in February 14th, 2006 @ 16:39How would you choke to death on a ballpoint pen? How would that work? I have a bad habit of putting pens in my mouth when I’m thinking. Expressly for Bo, my favorite factoids:
-Bronwell Bronte, brother of Charlotte and Emily, died standing up leaning against a mantelpiece just to show it could be done.
-Baby sloths are so clumsy they sometimes grab their own arms and legs instead of tree trunks.
-There are 32 bones in a pig’s foot.
-All the Beatles were 5″11′ in height except for Ringo, who was shorter. The facts aren’t in on the Rutles yet.On that note, on to other news. I finally memorized “The Walrus and the Carpenter” by Lewis Carroll, 18 6-line stanzas, or 108 lines. I also stubbed my big toe on the floor (don’t laugh! It hurt) and sang “Masochism Tango” no less than nine times. I also introduced myself to a substitute, who sang the Dire Straits song “Romeo and Juliet” from the fabulous
album “Making Movies”. I love that album, even though David Knopfler left in the middle of recording, which was sad.

I hate Valentine’s day. Today I wore a Godzilla shirt, a couple of Band-Aids, a very pretty leather and chain bracelet, socks with holes in them, and a sullen expression. I consider myself to be in the spirit of the holiday because my blood is red and I’m bleeding. And it comes from my heart.
Can we please have the Muses visit after skool for everybody except any Alaska/Hawaiians? (Are there any?) That would be about 3:30 Pacific time, 6:30 Eastern time, 4:30 Mountain time, and 5:30 Central/MuseBlog time.
When I think of Homer, I think of A-C’s brother, who is named Homer and looks like Mr. Simpson, too.

Bo, did you know you that if you fill a swimming pool with custard, you can actually walk on the surface of it? It starts to suck your hooves in, though, like quick sand, so I wouldn’t do it for long.

in February 14th, 2006 @ 17:22Curses. I missed the muses. Come back soon, guys! Ah yes, Bo. She’s one of my favorites. I like Feather, Chad, and Bo the best. Well, I like Urania too. Choking on a ballpoint pen? I’m skeptical. Maybe if you were holding your pen upright on your desk and suddenly, you fell asleep, causing your head to fall downward and forcing the pen down your throat. That way, if you were really tired, by the time you figured out what was happening, you’d be dead. But still, how likely is that?

Organization is my worst nightmare. The only way i can keep track of things is if it’s not organized. Otherwise i don’t remember what folder or whatever it’s in anyway.

in February 14th, 2006 @ 19:37About posting a giant lollipop, here’s the thing: I’d rather not post a link to a random outside Web-site that I know nothing about other than that it has a great lollipop image on it. There are some LOVELY lollipops out there, though.
The preferred route for getting images on the blog is to upload the actual image files to the blog’s host. Uploading to the blog host is one of Robert’s special GAPA powers. If he’s in the mood, he just might do it. No telling, though. He seems pretty wiped out after his encounter with the Muses last night.

in February 14th, 2006 @ 20:47Be happy. I’m happy. Sort of.
Man, I have nothing to talk about. Grrrrrrrrrr. All I’ve been doing is hanging around and out with friends. The miracle of the telephone. There are some pretty interesting things that are said on there, but you kind of have to know the people involved. If you know the people and their personalities, we tell some hilarious stories.
Let’s see….. My friend Lacy and I have a running inside joke. Okay, you remember that speech conference I went to a few weeks ago? Where I was gone for a really long time? Well, I went down there with Rebekah and Lacy. We were caravanning with another lady and her completely creepy and annoying son, Nathaniel. We stopped for lunch, and all us teenagers sat at a table together. Rebekah and Nathaniel were on one side of it, me and Lacy on the other. Well, Rebekah was showing us the ring she got for Christmas, and as a joke I said “so, who’s the lucky guy?” Nathaniel, in a completely characteristic move, goes “I am!!!!!!” and laughs hysterically. Rebekah turned bright red, and started laughing pretty nervously. Lacy and I just gave a rather horrified look, and laughed at the sheer cluelessness Nathaniel had just exhibited. Trying to make sure we all heard him, he said “I am” again, only louder. We still joke about that, saying when it fits into the conversation, “I am” and then laughing the way Nathaniel did. Anyway, that’s what us poor deprived homeschoolers do when we get around other kids.
I have to clean up my room. And work on speeches.

in February 14th, 2006 @ 21:30Yeah, Ebeth, I guess you’re right. Lacy and I have a ton of inside jokes. One of us can just go “it’s true”, “fair maiden”, “gay wannabe”, or “podium dancer” and the other one will start laughing really, really hard. They’re all long, but funny, stories. I’ve only been good friends with Lacy for about two months. Wow, we could end up with several hundred jokes like that by the end of our relationship, at the rate we’re going.
That lollipop is really rocking. It’s awesome.

yesterday's_kinked_moose
in February 15th, 2006 @ 09:15Being a homeskooler, and having mostly homeskooled friends, there’s lots of time for weird inside jokes. Here’s one I’m willing to let you in on that should be at least understandable to one who was not present at the Time of Stupidity. Okay, so my friend and I were at this festival thing at a historic place in our town and we were stringing slices of apple on to a string to be dried. When we were almost finished, I remarked rather carelessly that they looked like spines. My freind thought so also and we started joking about how spines are only ripe in the fall and we had to dry them so we wouldn’t starve in the winter months, being spine eating creatures. Eventually that escalated to the mock threat, “I will pull out your spine and dry it for the cold winter months!!!!” Properly said in a diabolical voice and often followed by MWA ha ha! So we routinly threaten to harvest each other’s spines. Of course, anyone who heard us would think we were total sickos. If I ever say anything like that, don’t be too weirded out.

turns out it was in the childrens section.
there’s this guy at my skool who reads muse, and i want to mention to him that he should come on the blog, but im too embarrassed.

The flutes don’t though-sarah fedner is first chair flute. And she’s a freshman. Yes, she’s really good. But it’s still kind of sad that they don’t have any upperclassmen better than her seeing as they’ve got a good 2, 3 year start on her.
But i suppose that’s fedner for you too.
lol. she’s cool.#621-Go ahead. why not? I mean really, if it’s somebody you know, then no reason to feel embarrassed, and if it’s somebody you don’t know, well if he gives you icy stare or whatnot just ignore him for the rest of your life.
And anyway, he’s a muser! I know that’s not really a good judge of character, but it has to count for something…i mean if he’s really interested in it, not if his parents get it for him…
Me loves the secret garden. Except the first version of that i read was an evil abridged. *hisssss* but then i found out and read the real thing and liked.

in February 15th, 2006 @ 15:58most of the running jokes my friends have are rather sick, and their conversations are even worse.
they’re all homosexual, or autosexual, or heterosexual pretending to be homosexual.
i think lunch is probably the most educating subject.
my new atl is full of weird girls.
they were having sick coversations
something like ‘well so-n-so was having sex with this girl and…’
and i was sitting in the corner reading the long dark tea-time of the soul.
which for some strange reason was in the skool library.
obviously the person who put it there had never read it, because it had nasty swearing in it.
when i read books or watch television i always feel as though i live a sheltered life. (also when i watch tv i feel like a nerd, and when i read i feel like a weakling)
but then i go to skool, and i feel as though my life could probably be a lot more sheltered.
*at this point, all of the homeskoolers decid that they would eat their socks before going back to public skool*
ah sorry peoples.

armadillo fruitloop.
well i would, but i just feel stupid talking about it at skool. i also feel terribly immature around other people, and worry too much about what they think of me, and then talk too much and become annoying, an then get low self esteem and retreat into my head where all the people like me, or at least have some vague respect for me. and then i go and tell my sob-story to random peoples on the internet hoping to elicit sympathy. ha ha ha no, instead i go on the internet where i am not uncool and generally ignored.

in February 15th, 2006 @ 17:35My friend and I launched an anonymous e-mail account the other day. We’ve decided to write long, mushy, fervent declarations of love to random guys we know, and send it through that account, and then have fun messing with their heads. We figured we could get some other girls in on it, and make them really wonder who it was that sent it. Of course, we have to be careful, because some guys we know would, upon getting a note that said something along the lines of “I love you passionately, I can not have you, never forget I will always love you and hold you dearly to my heart”, make up their mind never to leave the house again. But it could be very funny.

in February 15th, 2006 @ 20:12Heh. My Valentine’s Day was on the icky side of bad.
First, I had to put up with”couples” sneaking presents into each others’ lockers. Seriously, what do they know about love?
Second (prologue) , I listened to my parents the night before and went to bed early so I could get some decent sleep, so didn’t finish my homework.
Second (A), I didn’t finish my math, and would have had to stay in for lunch had I not been able to mooch some answers off a guy during algebra before school. But since I didn’t show my work for those answers, I will get a very low score.
Second (B), I didn’t study for my science quiz, and failed it. Third, I was displeased all day because of failing the test and getting a low grade on the math.
My parents make it very clear to me that if I CAN get straight A’s, I SHOULD get straight A’s. You should see what happens around here when I get a B.
I don’t think I’m going to ever not finish my homework again. Which is why I should go write my autobiography now, like I should be doing, instead of partaking in the delight of the MuseBlog.*puppy eyes* Prease some hot-pink bunnies for me, the humble servant and slave to the MuseBlog?

in February 15th, 2006 @ 21:28Queenie J. (#649): I actually live in Louisiana. For some reason, this mistaken assumption that I reside in Alabama persists. I think it may have something to do with people reading “Montgomery” and thinking Montgomery, AL. That’s not what it means. I named myself after L. M. Montgomery, author of Anne of Green Gables. By the way, the south rocks. I mean, it’s really really hot, but everyone’s nice, courtesy is just expected, that stereotype of the shacks out in the backwoods is a completely myth, almost everyone I know has all their teeth (where on earth did that thing come from, anyway?), and I don’t think racism is worse here than anywhere else. I think in my entire life, I’ve known two people who were true racists. Anyway, the stereotype is odd, when compared with reality.

oh oh wait… = SNOW DAY!!!!!
yeah, i mustve heard 10 people in every class attempt to channel their psychic energy in order to have a snow day tomorrow. (“did ya hear? all the snows supposed to melt tonite!”….”snow day tomorrow? u got to be kidding!”… ” snow day? whats a ‘snow day’?”) reverse psychology. it actually works sometimes.

in February 16th, 2006 @ 15:00AAARGH! I totally failed the poetry test!!!! ARRGH! This has got to be lamuth’s olympic medal in cruel and unusual punishment. FIVE BLEEPIN ESSAYS on FIVE BLEEPIN POEMS find the meaning and all that crap and then compare two other poems that’s a total of SIX )@($#&^#)$(*)@$”#(&)#@($*(#$_#&))($@*_#(@”$#&)*(ESSSSSSAAAAAYYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And usually we get pretty much all hour bc she makes the objective easy but no this time the objective bit was SO (@#IN HARD!!!!! Like 30 matching q’s-HARD matching q’s-and then lines to scan and identify the rhythm! AND THEN SIX ESSAYS!!!! IN 55 MINUTES!!! The poems were hard too! You had to read them and think about them and they were so confuzzling! AAAH!!!! I BLEEPIN HATE ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
sry for the random bleeped-out swearing…
got an A on my math test though.
I suppose that’s good.
GRRRR THE ENGLISH TEST! I wrote like a good half page for the first two and then i had like NO time and i had to read the freakin poems and they took FOREVER to figure out and i ended up with like anywhere from 8 to 3 sentences on the last four! IT WAS HORRIFIC!!!!!
Ok we need another happy note to end on now. FOUR DAY WEEKEND!!! WOOHOO!!!! (THE CAPS LOCK IS GETTING SOME WORK IN TODAY!) AND tomorrow my lb has to go to skool and I DON’T!!! MWAHAHAHA!!! AND THEN MONDAY OFF!!!! WHEEEEE!!!!!!!

(GAPA RS): Why are you talking in all caps? Must be the musebloggers’ influence… Ok…so. The conference. How has the relocation of our choklit stash worked out? Perfectly. Choklit is no longer disappearing from our stash. They could just be waiting for us to get comfortable. Hmm…perhaps you’re right. I’ll add another couple of hot pink bunny guards.The important business being over with, the GAPA then move on to more trivial things
So…this link… ah. Do we post it, or not? (Ebeth): Well, it doesn’t give out any contact info… true…*looks up* Hey! You’re not Robert! Erm…yes i am… No, her! AAH! This is a top secret conference! We have fifty hpb guards stationed around! How did you get in?!?!?! Through the door. But the hpb guards!!! Eating your choklit. *licks lips* WHAT??!?!!?!?!

The window itself seems fine but it’s on an unknown person’s Web-site. And while this person seems like a decent sort, I don’t know for sure.
And while we’re on the topic of links, here’s the GAPAs’ fundamental opinion: MuseBlog is supposed to be an end in itself / a destination in its own right, not a jumping-off point to the wonders of the Web. People should come to us for what WE have to offer, and to offer one another here!! Ta DA!

oh mongomerygurl, do you live in montgomery alabama? [No; see the FAQ section of the Hitchhiker’s Guide to MuseBlog. –Admin.] because that just happens to be where atticus studied law. which reminds me, i need to get my english notes off my hand before they comepletely wear off.
lets see if i can make them out…
grr, need to get a sharpie.
town where atticus studied law
even though atticus know that tr’s case is a matter of cconcience, he also knows that he cnnot do what

editorial
‘maycombs something that i cannot make out probably worst disease’
forshadowing of attack
note to self: next time rite on arm not hand
well there they are. then, when on monday night i am inclined to study, i will be able to find them.
speaking of my left arm, i sold half of it off to brittney, because libby wasn’t using it.
ooo where was i?
oh yes, my other internet has left to play poker with its poker-playing-pals and will probablly get very drunk and broke and come home in a few hours, but until then i am stuck with aol.
and i haven’t been on in at least 24 hrs, which is a sure sign that i was killed in a car crash. actually its not, im not sure why i said that, because i obviously did not get killed in a car crash. unless… *GASP* I AM A GHOST!
excuse that. i have been reading dirk gently’s hda. im at the part where they have… welll, lets see, the peoples have just gotten off the train, and the other peoples are trying to decide what it was that the ghost wanted.
by the way, i went to the library. got 8 books.

in February 16th, 2006 @ 20:29HUZZAH! HUZZAH! HUZZAH!
I JUST BEAT HAC!!!!!!!!!!!
For the people who are totally clueless about my outburst, as in everyone, I will tell you the depth of my accomplishment.
Hac (tecnically Nethac) is a computer version of Dungeons and Dragons. You make a charecter and go on a quest to find the Amulet of Yendor and bring it to your assigned deity. On the way you go to stores, fight monsters, befriend fellow dungeoneers, solve puzzles, et cetra. There are fifty-one levels, six Quest levels, five Puzzle levels, one Rouge level, five levels in the tower of the WIzard of Yendor, five levels in the tower of Vlad the Impaler, and half of the normal levels are the evil devilish Maze levels in Gehennom. Also it has 5 Elemental levels. It is the HARDEST computer game in the world with the possible exception of the latest version of it, Slash’em, which I have but do not play as much and has 3 additional Quest levels. So anyway, let me tell you about my accomplishments.
I played as my favorite position, a Valkrie, one of the women warriors of Asguard. My deity was tyr. I sacrificed on an alter and got the weapon of Asguard, Mjollnir (pronouncer mee-OL-nihr), which strikes with a lightning attack and if you have top strength, 25, (which I did from having the Gauntlets of Power) returns to your hand if thrown. I was in Explore Mode, I admit it, which means you have the choice of coming back to life at the last saved game, but I ONLY DIED 50 TIMES! I know this sounds like a lot, but trust me, in Hac it is terrific. Usually I die over 300 times, and even if you are in explore mode if you lose ALL your hit points (my max was 350 at the end of the game, which is amazing) you lose the game. So I went down, defeated my Quest monster, Vlad the Impaler, all nine Demon Lords and Princes, beat Medusa, Famine, Pestilence, the High Priest (which took a while b/c his deity was throwing disintegration rays and lightening bolts at me the whole time), beat the Wizard of Yendor eleven times (he comes back to life) and beat Death THRICE. All while that stupid wizard was throwing Summon Monster at me and cursing my gear every two seconds. I solved the Wish puzzle and got seven wishes out of the three-wish wand I found and five out of the one-wish wand, got jumping boots, a shield of reflection, the Orb of Fate, silver dragon scale mail, the Gauntlets of Power, the Candelabrum of Invocation, the Bell of Opening, the Book of the Dead, seven wands of death, and was resistant to fire, cold, water, disintegration, electricity, sleep, hallucination, and magic.
As for magic weapons, I had Mjollnir, Frost Brand, Sting (which I made myself), Ogresmasher, and Demonsbane.
I won the game (becoming a demigoddess) after I reached thirtieth level and gained the title of Situla (that was my name) the Lady. I am SO proud!!!!!!!!*sighs happily* no one I have ever known has ever beaten that game, even in Explore Mode!

in February 16th, 2006 @ 20:31mi padre had to call the geek squad today. My internet hasn’t worked since january.
those other times I managed to get on were at school.
J haue a vncle. Ye olde schoole… or whatever.
How about that Paul Baker?I was so excited that we (meaning my values class) is learning about the London Tower and such. When I got home from schoole, I read that article.
My social studies teacher went to Egland and she got a special tour from a Yeoman/Beefeater/Person… yes
She asked him if he had seen any ghosts.Miss A. Have you heard the legends/myths/stories about this tower?
Beefeater/Yeoman Of course
Miss A Oh
Beefeater I live here
Miss A Cool… I mean… uh… King ‘Enery the VIII I am I am. King ‘Enery the VIII I am…
Beefeater Don’t embarass your self kid
Miss A. Sooo, have you ever seen a ghost?
Beefeater Well, not actually seen one, but something I will never forget happened once…
Miss A. Only once?
Beefeater Yes. Me and me wife were in our room hanging out, playing bridge I think. Then my wife’s purse floated up in the air and shook itself. Scary, huh?
Miss A. ChaOkay. The people are real. The ghost story is real. The rest I just made up. Wow. I bet Oprah is mad at me now. She also saw St. Thomas More’s tomb. She had just graduated and her parents were with her by the way.
King ‘Enery the VIII I am, I am. King ‘Enery the VIII I am. I’m gettin married to the girl next door, she’s been married seven times before, and everyone of them was an ‘Enery… King ‘Enery the VIII I am. Second verse, same as the first….

I have to log off now probably won’t be moderating for the rest of the day. But when I get back on I’ll answer your question.The thing is, though, the precise nature of the question escapes me.
So please tell me, what is it you’d like to know? I must’ve missed the question in the massive posting flurry of recent days.

in February 16th, 2006 @ 21:31Musers, I’m logging off for a while — probably until tomorrow. So unless Robert gets a chance to stop by (he might), the MuseBlog will be quiet for the evening.
