How DARE you insinuate that Dave is half human. All of us loyal Dave-
heads know that he's 100% pure alien, and we're deeply offended that 
anyone would suggest otherwise.

And besides, putting his age at 160 would disqualify me from my hard-won

Neil is an alien from somewhere in outer space. He was born on 
stardate 31964. Along with his friend Bob, he hangs out with 
Satanic Chickens and  over-sexed Goats. He had some risque encounters 
with famed composer Richard Wagner (usually while listening to 
Tannhauser) which resulted in the birth of 622 offspring (including
such famous denizens as Pauly Shore, Paul Shaeffer, John Paul Jones,
Thad Jones, Jenny Jones, Davy Jones, Davey Johnson, Moose Johnson, 
that bitch Beth from the Real World, and that guy who gets shot in
the gut by the cannon on all those TV commercials). This fact horrifies 
me terribly. The pregnancy was really hard on Neil (mostly because
of the teasing from Bob about sleeping with Wagner). I hope he doesn't 
start loving karaoke and shooting up McDonalds because he's hooked on 
the orange drink.

It looks okay to me...doesn't seem to be altered.

Should I admit that all I had to do was minimize this window to look at 
the picture, since I now have it set as my wallpaper? Heck, why not? 
Someone *else* obviously went to the trouble to put the original picture 
up on FDC in the exact aspect ratio to fit as wallpaper without 
distortion, not to mention at a larger size so when it's shrunk to fit 
you still get a nice high-res picture.

Well, I definitely meant it as a *good* thing, considering I count myself 
as one of these people...I just meant that many (not all!) of us seem to 
think of ourselves as some sort of misfit, as opposed to being part of 
the mainstream popular crowd in our "real-life" surroundings. A lot of us 
have expressed a feeling of not fitting in elsewhere.

I *don't* mean to say that it's bad to be popular, or that everyone in 
this group is a social reject, or anything like that. I'm not trying to 
generalize or pigeonhole anybody. What I'm saying is that it's a great 
feeling when you finally find a place where, well, it's not forbidden to

     Well, let see, Jerry Lee Lewis married his thirteen year old cousin...I
still like his music.  My father was 11 years older than my mother...he
never sang professionally (thank god).  I guess one's taste in women has
little to do with one's ability to make great music.

     I'd be much more concerned (and interested) if Jian (or anyone else for
that matter) was 1) having a sexual relationship with someone who was a
minor 2) having a sexual relationship with someone against their will or 3)
having a sexual relationship with someone I know (better chance of getting
into an after show party or something like that).  Otherwise all I care
about is that I enjoy the show.

     I am sure that Mark has some qualities that others would not approve
of.  Beware of making judgments less you be judged.

Count me in, as I think I was one of the original people to suggest this 
idea. I don't mind paying a few bucks for the beach, and I'd really, 
really like to get a whole bunch of people together to hang out there. 
It'll be the day after my birthday, and I wanna have a nice big Frühead 
shindig before the show to celebrate.

My glitch is that I don't yet know when or how I'll be getting from 
Boston to Ocean City. I absolutely want to stay in Boston over Sunday 
night (for those of you unaware, my husband's working there and can't 
make it to the OC show, and after OC I'm headed back to Denver). Is there 
anyone driving from Boston to OC on Monday who can give me a lift?

I'm a bit confused.  I always thought the general population
breakup was about 75% introverted and 25% extroverted.
Possibly even more introverted than that.  I know when I was
in college and we did Meyers-Briggs there were many more I's
than E's.  It seems like a lot of people are less sociable
to strangers in this world and so that's why it seems like
there are more introverts.  It's usually not until people
really get to know people and make friends that they are
more open and sociable, and it's more rare of people to talk
to anyone and socialize with just anyone at any given
moment, if you see what I mean.

HEY! I *heart* Wagnerian opera! Listening to Hildegard Behrens sing her soul
out as Brunnhilde in the NY Met's 1988 Ring cycle kept me awake and alert
during many a late-night college studying session. Who knows, if Fruvous had
been around then, maybe it would have been "Horseshoes" that I pictured the
Niebelungen making when Wotan and Mime visited them.

In fact just today I was listening to Ring excerpts. And I have the complete
cycle on my cdnow wish list! It's only $174 or some such. :)

 I *don't* mean to say that it's bad to be popular, or that everyone in 
 this group is a social reject, or anything like that. I'm not trying to 
 generalize or pigeonhole anybody. What I'm saying is that it's a great 
 feeling when you finally find a place where, well, it's not forbidden to 
 be what you are.

Oh I see! I thought u meant it in a bad way! Yeah in my "real-life 
surroundings I'm not in any certain group, I have friends from each group. I 
consider myself geeky at times too! And it is "a great feeling when you 
finally find a place where, well, it's not forbidden to be what you are." 
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

ya know, Lori and I talked about it today and we really hoped this wouldn't
perpetuate the troll's obvious desire to throw some type of non-fact based (or
fact based, who's to say, that's not why we're here) temper tantrum. 
However... I must say that I truly appreciate the responses I have
seen...thank you for not sinking to his level Meghan, Vika, Josh, Bridget,
Chad and AJ.

And as for you, Mr. LoCicero...

you sure you weren't eavesdropping on the inst. msg conversation Lori and I
had earlier?

Seriously, though... this was one of my biggest fears with the guys "making it
big," the fact that their lives would become fodder for public slanderous
bull$hit.  I don't think I'd be prepared to deal with standing in line at
Wegmans, glancing over and seeing a trash mag boldly displaying a picture of a
bearded woman with a bat child superimposed between Murray and Dave all
superimposed in front of Stonehenge with meteors flying out of the sky while
I'm buying frozen pizza and Coca-Cola.

All I can say is that I certainly don't depend on the guys for my moral
guidance (*wink*), I depend on them to provide me with new, awesome,
thought-provoking or side-splitting music... and they deliver.  What have I
got to complain about. :^)

Ok, I'm done and need to get back to writing.  It appears that my writer's
block seems to have dissipated and my muse has returned... but sonnets???
sheesh!  Nothing like a little challenge ;^}

When I get back we'll dip our cup
Into the fountain of youth
We'll rest our heads and raise a toast
To the sunset's beautiful truth
