"Eskimoes and Geordies!" Personally, I doubt Irene is even female. "Her" behaviour is so pimple faced Columbine teenage boy. One would hope that a list of "fans" of a class act like Ferry, Bryan, would surmise such unsolicited personal attacks as Irene on moi, are off limits, and would warrant exclusion from the list. But since the list seems to think that Irene should open this door----- Irene, I don't know what your trip is, but this is not a Rat Scabies or a Sham 69 list. Duh? Hello? You have launched several attacks on the list at me, alhtough I have never addressed anything to you, yet. WHY? My personal email adress is there for you. You want to call me an asshole? Do it to my "face." Have the tits or juevos to do it mano a mano, to my "face," my eyes. Cos right now your game is pretty-pretty weak. (And we don't care-e). And swallow. And sad. You want to attack me? Do it to me. Don't bore our good gracious friends here. You wanna debate me? Take me on. (Take On Me, lol!) Direct, to me. Show your courage, your stregnth of wit, your...acumen. (Sharpening stones? Walking on coals?) Bankrupt? Rupt? (No bank babaloo? Boohoo.) Jealous, you know it make me wanna.... Zzzzz. These public attacks are the example of an inferior and weak mind. You want to take exception to my style or comments? Lay out your case, email me, debate me, bring it on. Take exception. No problem. Agree to disagree. Others have, but what they have not done has been to make weak assed STOOPID penny assed attacks that bore us all, on list. When you attack me here, you embarass me. No, I don't care what you say of me, here. I am embarassed that you are boring my lovely friends that are here to celebrate all things great; Roxy and Bryan. Bring it on DIRECT, or ...In the least spare the good mass of gentle Avalonian Aesthetes of this list your consistent tedium. (And how did you get here, anyways, Dahlink?) And trust me, I've hung with Jimmy Pursey, and he'd think you a flipping BORE. I don't know what your intent is. Your point. Your contribution. Oh you don't have any? Do you think you are PUNK? James Oesterberg and Glenn Matlock, would also find you pretty vancant. - -All I can say is you give me the impression of some unhappy female, who's decided she will take some gutless angst out on a male someone somewhere somehow she doesn't know. Either that or you are some guy playing an extemley flaccid game. Were you abused or raped in early life? If so, I am sorry for whatever pain others put upon you. But the semi anonymous strangers of this list, all of us, ain't responsible. And certainly I have not earned the toxic discharge of your anemic potshots toward me. It is all a symbol of yourself. "Freak," as Kicki points out, is a symbol of Why-O-U. (Why Are You?) ...Transferring your angst to a stranger, is pretty weak. And, geez, so-o-o passe. I'm a Vet of the Net, and should I choose or have the time I can take you apart regularly here..... in about a dozen ways. But it is a lame game. It is almost a Net relic. Boring. In the future I will go back to ignoring you. I am too busy. Now, I suggest you get a job with a Health Plan, stop using Net Zero, and start raising some therapist's tax bracket. best - Eman. - -------------------- To disentangle yourself from these bickering numbnuts, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 20 Feb 2000 02:00:09 -0800 From: "eman96" Subject: [AVALON] Re: avalon-digest V5 #67 If Queen Kicki did not exist, we'd have to invent her.

Edward Fitzgerald's reading of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam has been a source of inspiration for Bryan's words, especially on the Bete Noire album. The texts are available as part of Project Gutenberg: Milton (Paradise Lost) and Wordsworth seem to have helped out, too, on an album that always returns to simple images of fire and water, night and day, the earth and the sky, the sun and the moon.

At least, I've seen underwear packaged this way (you know, "one for each day of the week"). But Ferry was probably referring to what you are talking about.

Granted, the Crowes' piece is a little faster and uses a harmonica, but I hear the RM song in there every time. This is not to say they stole it from RM per se, but it's interesting that those few brief chords seem to echo each other. Check it out for yourself if you can get your hands on the Crowes' album. One more thing: When I listen to _Boys and Girls_ on my headphones, I always hear a little noise of some sort at the end of "Don't Stop the Dance," right before "Wasteland" starts, that sounds like a dog barking once. But it's probably not that at all. Can anyone identify this sound? And speaking of DSTD, my Dad used to think Bryan was saying, "Don't Stop FOR GAS." I thought it was cute but pretended to be horrified. Have a safe and productive week-- Crystal - -------------------- To disentangle yourself from these bickering numbnuts, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2000 08:18:42 -0000 From: "Robert Whiteford" Subject: Re: [AVALON] Powdered wigs We never close babe We dance a jig I'm lost inside babe Your Powdered Wig A very amateur poet. - -------------------- To disentangle yourself from these bickering numbnuts, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2000 00:44:12 -0800 From: "Chan" Subject: Re: [AVALON] Powdered wigs hehe. k. that amused me. :) Chan depmode@earthlink.net "Beneath my hands your small breasts are the upturned bellies of breathing fallen sparrows." - Leonard Cohen - -----Original Message----- From: Robert Whiteford To: avalon@smoe.org Date: Monday, February 21, 2000 12:10 AM Subject: Re: [AVALON] Powdered wigs We never close babe We dance a jig I'm lost inside babe Your Powdered Wig A very amateur poet. - -------------------- To disentangle yourself from these bickering numbnuts, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon - -------------------- To disentangle yourself from these bickering numbnuts, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: unsubscribe avalon ------------------------------ End of avalon-digest V5 #68 *************************** ======================================================================== For further info, mail majordomo@smoe.org with: info avalon-digest
