Let me say, I COMPLETELY agree with what it says. Although I personally don't buy his clothes, I think what was said was totally inappropriate. If the African American and Asian population buy his clothes, why is he complaining? I mean, you can't come out with a line of clothes and say ,"only white people are allowed to buy this product" or, "only black people allowed" I mean, that's a total turn around to all the segregation laws that have been passed. I mean, isn't that what Martin Luther King fought for? I mean, his birthday is on Monday. I highly doubt anyone really knows that fact and I think that everyone just views it as a day out of school and a day off of work in some places. Tommy was way out of line. Personally, I don't care about style really. I mean, when I go shopping I don't think to myself, "Well, I want to get some LEI jeans or an Old Navy shirt." I buy what looks nice and fits my budget. Designer labels have no bearing on my clothes whatsoever. I mean, I am perfectly happy buying second hand clothes and clothes that aren't "designerly fashionable" at the time. I mean, why do name brand cost so much? I mean, I could go into any Gap and find a sweater for $50. I could find that same sweater or better at another store for $15. Why do people insist on paying such outrageous prices? I mean, if you gave me $50 to spend on clothes and another person $50 who only buys designer clothes, I bet you any money that I could end up buying at least six things when that other person would most likely only come out with one or two things. WHY? WHY? WHY? WHY does style and name brands mean so much to people? Clothes are clothes. They serve the same purpose everywhere you go. Why? Someone, anyone, PLEASE explain this to me!! <3 always ~Mandabear~ The ever angry angel ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.

Fulmer" Subject: ET: poem from a long time ago Ok, I have no clue if I sent this to the list or not. A friend of mine Nicole does a poetry thing called Section 8 and I sent it to her and then someone else she sends section 8 to asked me about this. Not finding it in my eda-thoughts archives..I thought I'd send it to the list and grace the list with it's attitude however you may perceive it to be :o) - ------------------- Pool of Demise by Seth D. Fulmer 11/30/98 In the time of knights and armor Through the woods, into the courtyard chasing all the lords and ladies into and from the iron maidens There lives a power deep and dark It runs down through my soul so bare It makes the love and hope and joy inside fear to live and run to hide It is this power dark and drear that chases everyone in here to scamper, hide, murder, and kill everyone that doesn't fear Demons living off this power Lovers turning dread to passion Terror running around its dead giving orders and acting big Sins which bite, miracles feared Emotional warfare, my heart can't stand Dead trees which offer, apples that bite Roses suck, life is just fine Friends which stab, knives which heal That pain in my back, the intense smell of fear Snow is red in the middle of winter Cats which lie, or is that a mouse? Music which deafens, noise oh so sweet Warfare ignored, Peace is so deadly Death is a burden to those with no money but to those who don't care, it's a solution for everything ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 13 Jan 1999 21:43:02 -0500 From: "Seth D. Fulmer" Subject: ET: Untitled Poem Here's a poem that I wrote this morning...It's untitled but I thought you people might be interested in it...I hope it doesn't upset anyone :) by Seth D. Fulmer 1/13/99 I love the sound of her voice the way that she walks the sound that her heart makes when angels to her talk But how can I love that which I've yet to meet I don't know but she's cooler than Heaven while on speed The sight of a beating heart as it hits the blade of the fan truly describes how I feel all too truly close at hand Whenever she's not around I miss her like hell We all know hell hath no fury than a lady's influence on a man I laugh at the pain then scream at the agony because the princess of dreams has walked out of my castle She's walked away with a beast with whom she'll have fun She's a flower none the less but he's a weed all the same Oh the Irony of ages finally comes to pass Should I be happy or should I be mad? I laugh when I cry inside at the horror of my future The life I once envisioned is no longer quite possible If anyone wants clarification about something in here..just let me know.
