I know I have...ya know about the US bombing...well in the paper today it said that we were definately going to get into a war sometime in the future...I think that is really scary and I don't see why we just can't all get along...if everyone just cooperated and helped out other countries/people it would make this world so much better...it seems that no one can see that if everyone just worked together we could all win and be prosperous...oh hell...this sucks...I'd like to go smack all the leaders of all the countries over the head and tell 'em to smarten up...oh well I am gonna go think about this some more...maybe write a poem about it...I'll post some stuff later. *^*NIKI*^* PS-Is it alright if we post stuff about this topic? ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Aug 1998 14:41:15 -0500 From: Tim Vaughn Subject: ET: good things bout me okay kevin, here ya go... ;) I love to laugh, and have a good sense of humor...most of the time I'm still taller then my brother!

(actually, Prince...) Let's not forget, "Walk like an Egyptian" and "Eternal Flame". :) "Close your eyes, give me your hand, can you feel my heart beating, do you feel the same..." I forget the rest, but that was a popular song at one point. :) > ~She's my cherry pie...put a smile on your face, ten miles wide...look so >good bring a tear to your eye...sweet cherry pie!~ Warrant I think, for the sake of saving time, we can lump Warrant, Poison, Saigon Kick, Trixter, Motley Crue, Skid Row, Firehouse, and all those other spandex-clad, big-haired bands with shrieking lead singers, together into one really bad memory. :) They all sounded pretty much the same, as I remember. :) Cyndi (Cyanide... :) Lauper is yet another fine specimen of 80's music gone awry. :) "I see your true colors, shining through... I see your true colors, and that's why I love you..." "The phone rings, in the middle of the night, my father yells, 'When you gonna live your life right?'..." And just think of the trauma caused by WHAM! "Wake me up before you go-go..." And how about REO "I can't fight this feeling anymore..." Speedwagon? :) And who can forget Foreigner? "I wanna know what love is, I want you to show me, I wanna know what love is, I know you can show me..."

Y'all know why! - ---------- Y'know, I've developed a much better body image since I developed hips (over the last couple monts). I'm not just another stick figure now!! I'm starting to look like my mum used to, which is actually a good thing!! I like my nose (kinda), my hair, and (especially) my eyes. I'm the atypical blonde Irish- darker green eyes and golden blonde hair. And I've got the "Irish nose," a freckled and straight, with a barely-too-big bulbous tip. It's hard to describe! Any way, I have a better body-image (slightly above average) than I do personality-image (slightly below average). I have glasses that I rarely wear (although people have thought me 17 with my glases on & my hair down...go figure!!) I really want contacts...I want the option of being able to go glasses-free and still be able to see. - -------------- BTW, I should clarify you guys with my lil' bro situation. Mom got a kick-ass lawyer (the best in 17 counies!!) and we're going to disprove all the lies told in the (and this is how Jake's dad & his new wife spelled it!!) affafavit (it should be affadavit), such as: =...when the child came into my care, he knew no personal hygiene; I had to teach him how to comb his hair, brush his teeth, and clean underneath his fingernails. =...the child repeatedly stabbed his styrofoam plate with his fork while talking angrily about moving. I mean, come on!! Like he doesn't know how to brush his teeth!! He does it 2-3 times a day, I only do it twice!! And he has a buzz cut, duh!!! And his dad picked him up from the town garage, where Jake works! Of course his nails were dirty!! He's rebuilding his Enduro bike!!! And who on this list hasn't stabbed a styrofoam plate!! I sure as hell have! Lock ME up, I'm psycho! - ----------- Love, Maggie PS: See a pic of Jake on his bike here: http://www.geocities.com/Pari/cafe/1880/bike.jpg ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 22 Aug 1998 21:55:13 -0500 (CDT) From: Uneaq1@webtv.net (Maggie) Subject: ET: Oops, misspelled the addy!
