He also was quite a spiritual person. Even when he was not on a hunger strike, he did not eat much and became quite thin and frail. Furthermore, due to his diet, he ended up with very bad breath. Therefore: he came to be known as a (groan): "Super calloused fragile mystic plagued with halitosis." ~~~~~~ ________________________________________________________________ Get secure free e-mail that you don't need Web access to use from Juno, the world's second largest online service.

THE HAND I HELD this one is scrumptious too. :) i liked the indie film analogy. reminds me of my boyfriend. sorta no plot, but lots of "art." :P isn't it weird how you can also become the worst alternate self when you're with that other someone? become the weakest version possible? it's sad. this tale also reminds me of singer andrea florian's song ~hand to hold.~ she's an *indie* toronto singer-songwriter. she's great. it's scary to lose someone you love, even as a friend. it always reminds me of that ~wonder years~ episode where kevin and winnie break up and all you see at the end are them on separate school buses, heading in opposite directions. sad, but necessary. you know? so, all in all, your stories rang true, i liked the bob dylan comment. and the "i'm gonna miss you babe" closing is poignant. take kares and all that, ~tara ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 14 Jan 99 18:24:58 PST From: "shivergirl" Subject: ET: ~seth's~ **spark** dear seth, hey, are you mad that angel went and stole your name? :P been meanin to compliment your endless list of thought-questions.. is this too much butter??? :) i hope you're not havin a mean red. why do you always include your middle initial? and don't breakdowns produce the best babbling? :) i dig your girls' names poem. why maria twice? your little girl in heat was cute. and funny. :) edwin mccain is great. :) do you watch ~dawson~? take kares and all that sincere shit, :) tara ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 14 Jan 99 22:01:42 PST From: "shivergirl" Subject: ET: a thought to seth d. :) re: your untitled poem have you ever read ~the bridge across forever,~ by richard bach? i was very interested in your beautiful thoughts. why would anyone be upset? the bit about heaven on speed was great! and the fan imagery...ouch! :) so what inspired this excellent poem? ~tara ------------------------------ End of eda-thoughts-digest V2 #13 *********************************
