But he sensed in me this kindred spirit because I knew every piece of music and rock and roll trivia about just about every song in the past 10 years, so every day he'd have the "LW trivia question" on the blackboard about some song from the 60s or 70s. He only stumped me once, on "Suspicion" by Terry Stafford so of course to this day when I hear it I think if him. He also encouraged me to pursue my drawing and cartooning and had me create a comic strip about the environment which he entered in a national contest. I didn't win anything but I learned a lot and got a ton of extra credit. He got fired from the school because he taught us our "drug section" by assigning "A Child's Garden of Grass" and passing around baggies of oregano and a rolled oregano joint so we'd know what it looked like (at least he said it was oregano ... since I wouldn't know the difference for another year I couldn't say in retrospect). ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 27 Jan 1999 22:10:46 GMT From: petit_chou@juno.com Subject: Lotsa stuff no one else remembers (in a big lump) A bunch of things bundled into one (I've noticed how many individual postings I make, and I'm starting to feel ill, so I'm trying to cut it down)... Autumn said: >What I'm wondering now is how many episodes of Saved By The Bell can >you recite? And did you ever hear of a band called The Party? Okay, firstly, on the topic of Saved By The Bell, I am well versed in EVERY episode (seriously, I've seen em all too many times to count). I've seen the old ones (when they were weirdly at Bayside Middle School, and it wasn't really in California, and there was still an OFFICE, and not just Mr. Belding's office right next to Jesse and Lisa and Kelly's lockers, and there was Miss Bliss), the newer ones (even the ones where Kelly was gone and they had Tori the Biker, who also starred in the Parent Trap II (with triplets) on the Disney Channel), the College ones, and the movies. Gads, I loved that show. Cheese in all its greatest forms. I've gotta agree that the "I'm so excited" episode is a classic. On the topic of The Party, it's funny you mention that. Just yesterday, I listened to my single of "In My Dreams" ("In my dreams, it's still the same. Your love is stroooong, it still remains..."). So, yeah, you could say I've heard of them. *CHALLENGE* No one I know remembers "The Guys Next Door" but I have every episode locked into memory, as well as their album. Good stuff, I tell ya. If you remember it, please say something! Monique asked: >...this little 80s anime treat called "The Adventures of Unico." >He's a tiny white unicorn with spiffy pink hair and he got involved >with wooden robot people and a girl who turned into a cat. >Anyone know? Sure, I got ya. Unico is way cool. I've got a friend who's way into it. Aleigh said: >if Blue's Clues is on Nickelodeon, I'll just pause there for a minute >and end up watching the whole thing. I'm not really sure why that is! It's because Steve (the human) is the coolest guy on the planet, and it is too too funny to hear him sing, and it's hysterical that Mr. Salt and Mrs. Pepper have a child named Paprika, and...goodness, there are just too many reasons. I mean, you've gotta love a guy who matches his crayon to his shirt! C'mon! (Cool fact -- the actor who plays Steve came in for his audition in a leather jacket with long hair and a goatee. He had never sung or danced before, and he didn't know any children, but the kids took to him immediately, so they said, "Uh, dude, cut the hair and lose the goatee and the job is yours," and he did and now he's a star. In my eyes, at least.) Cameron Ross asked: >As anyone read "Naked" by David Sedaris? or anything else he's written? The only time I ever took book advice from a customer was when I bought "Holiday on Ice." It was the absolute best thing for me to read this Christmas, I tell you. I ended up reading it aloud to SO many people (I often read aloud to my friends. It's the coolest activity. When was the last time someone read to you?). Haven't read Naked, but it's next to buy. I've heard good things. Damn, that man is funny. Nicole the Wonder Nerd said: >..."Why is this in rhymed meter?"...I myself quoted "Entropy" on a >physics test in high school, but as I recall, the teacher didn't notice. HAH! That's too great. My chemistry teacher in highschool was an old friend of mine, and she was really hip (she listened to Pearl Jam and Soundgarden and They Might Be Giants and stuff). I used to always write song parodies for her class on my lab reports, just cause I liked her. She still has her classes sing "The Precipitate Bunch" when they do that lab. I only wish I had known "Entropy" at the time. I think I'll make her a copy of the song to play for her class. I think she would... And finally Andrea K said: >I do remember The Electric Company, 3-2-1 Contact... Right on! I was so down with these shows! I was all about Public Television ("Made possible by viewers like you!"). Still am, really. Heather Moore PS - fruchild, your teacher is the coolest for giving you bonus points for writing the lyrics! Getting extra credit via the teacher's interests rules. I once made a tessellation for my geometry class. My teacher loved the Stones, so I made a simple tessellation out of the lips logo. He still has it hanging in his class to this day, and I got *MEGA* bonus points. ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

At least mine >is .... it has a great moment featuring Bert singing some little >ditty called "Doin' the Pigeon." This could very well be one of those "monster at the end of the book" scenarios. The album I own is called "Sesame Disco." I'm holding it here in my lap, and the title is written in that hot pink neon light fashion. It's got a little sandwich board in the lower left hand corner that says "Special Guest Star Kermit the Frog." Right underneath the title, a disco ball glistens. Harry Monster, Prairie Dawn, Oscar the Grouch, Big Bird and The Count are all on the cover in their normal attire, but Ernie, Bert, Grover and Cookie Monster are all wearing white polyester ensembles with gold chains, or turtlenecks, or vests, or whatever. Oh, now that I look more closely, Harry Monster is actually wearing a gold chain over his furry neck. The cover folds out to list the songs (with pictures). All the pictures are fairly normal except for the one of Cookie Monster (for Me Lost Me Cookie at the Disco) -- he looks like Elton John on acid (kind of like the leader of the Riverbottom Nightmare Band in Emmet Otter's Jug Band Christmas, if you know what that is). The songs on the album are: *What Makes Music? - The Entire Cast *Me Lost Me Cookie At The Disco - Cookie Monster and The Girls *The Happiest Street in the World - Big Bird, The Kids, and The Girls *Sing - The Girls *Disco Frog - Kermit the Frog and The Girls *Doin' the Trash - Oscar The Grouch and The Girls *Bein' Green - Kermit the Frog and The Girls It's a treasure, and I love it (as I love all my plates of black food).

Drinking soy sauce on a dare in German Class. Mom ODing me with sleep medicine and zonking out in studyhall....for two periods. Making inuendos with Doctor Suess stories at my friday night parties.
