And that fact is: look at how many *musicians* are diehard fans of Fruvous. I might not know squat about music except what I like, but in that regard I'm in a minority among Fruheads. And I think that speaks of the quality of this band's sound, musicianship, and performance. - -- Lori Glitter Fairy/Tattooing Fru ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 03 Mar 2000 23:36:49 GMT From: "@*_*@ CDK" Subject: Re: guilty pleasures "A.J.

I was doing my bio homework, and i came across my old cell diffusion lab outline- it was 3% agar, phenolphthalein, and sodium hydroxide... and I think that my teacher had said that the latter 2 compounds, after interacting, turned a purple color... either that, or one of those compounds was purple from the start. Do I know what I'm talking about anymore? Probably not.

My alg. 1 teacher was *very* good... but I haven't had a good math teacher for the past 2 years, so my faith in them is kind of petering out- and it doesn't helped that I never really *loved* math in the first place. > But don't tell her I said this.

But we do plenty of that arguing stuff, too.... . ~truztno1 ------------------------------ Date: 04 Mar 2000 03:31:56 GMT From: spin0za1@aol.commmm (Spin0za1) Subject: Re: OT: gelatin / agar > are the one's with >sheep's blood (you know, the petri dishes filled with red stuff that you see >on TV when culturing bacteria).

Me: They don't. Not always. Dad: The people I was sitting with said they always end with The Drinking Song. Me: Um, well, they're wrong. I've been to a few shows where they didn't end with The Drinking Song. At my first show a year ago they ended with The Gulf War Song. Dad: The people I was with have been to 17 shows. They must know what they're talking about. They're *real* fruheads. Me: Dad, I've been to 10 shows and at at least three of them they didn't end with The Drinking Song. Dad: Fine, Gella. Argue with me. um... yeah, okay. My dad's a bit messed up. But the thing is that they don't always end with The Drinking Song, and to my knowledge they have never ALWAYS ended with The Drinking Song. I'm not quite sure why but it bothers me if someone tries to claim that the lads ALWAYS do anything really. The lads are unpredictable by nature. Even their unpredictability is unpredictable... they will go for long periods of doing something and then switch it up... or they will never do they same thing twice. These boys do not have boundaries or limits. They do not follow rules. This is a big part of why I love them so much. I love The Drinking Song... but when they close with My Poor Generation or I Will Hold On or If Only You Knew, it's just as magical. "To believe that knowledge is ignorance is noble.

Just to add to the growing defense of the Monkees (Good Lord, I find this amusing . . .) : First, I believe the Monkees themselves invited Hendrix to go on tour with them. Peter and Micky (or possibly Peter and Mike?) saw him perform and were blown away. There's a nifty Rhino documentary called "Hey Hey We're The Monkees," and Mike explains in it that, during the tour, whenever Hendrix would sing "Foxy Lady," all the little teenboppers would sing, "Foxy Davy!" Also, believe it or not, each of the Monkees has written their own stuff before. Some of it is even pretty decent, especially the stuff by Mike, who rarely gets the credit he deserves. And that's them playing everything but bass on the record Headquarters. Yeah, they did start out as a TV show, and they prolly did pave the way for the evil of BSB and 'N Sync and all their friends. But come on, you have to at least admit that the Monkeemobile was cool. Carey, hoping she hasn't started a thread about cool fictional cars now (and if I have, I at least hope that everyone agrees with me about the ultimate coolness of the Mystery Machine!) ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 03 Mar 2000 19:59:33 -0800 From: cookie Subject: Re: guilty pleasures > First, I believe the Monkees themselves invited Hendrix to go on tour with > them. Peter and Micky (or possibly Peter and Mike?) saw him perform and were > blown away. It was Mickey, at least according to his autobiography, "I'm a Believer: My life of Monkees, Music, and Madness." It's pretty interesting to hear his point of view about the whole Monkee thing, since it comes across as a pretty honest and humorous depiction of that era--at least as he remembers it. In fact, at times when he can't remember stuff due to the drugs he was taking, he writes stuff like, "They told me I had a really great time." Check it out if you have any interest in the Monkees at all. Cookie ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2000 04:52:42 GMT From: Lisa Carpenter Subject: Re: Guilty Pleasures > .
