Some day my prince will come... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 08:11:11 -0500 From: Anne Lyons Subject: Domo wori gato... ...Mr. Roboto! (apologies for the spelling!) Hey all! Sorry I have been less than communicative recently... it has been busy, busy, busy around here. I'm being pulled in a million different directions... but never fear, I will survive (hey hey). And boo-ya, we are getting that 75 degree weather today and tomorrow! Ahhhhhhh... a nice weekend for a change! Anne is more than psyched! I also just checked out some of the tentative dates for BFF -- and looks like they might be coming to Foxboro stadium when opening for Beck and DMB. That should be interesting, to say the least! Last year when I went to DMB concert at Great Woods (one of the other outdoor venues near Boston), I and my buddies were struck by the fact that we were the only ones drinking at the show. Because we were the only ones of legal drinking age. Oof. No... that would even be a double oof. Not that I mind being there with some younguns... but 95% is a bit much for me. Although it was fascinating to have one drunk/high 15 year old behind me singing Crash at the top of her pre-pubescent lungs though... and the 17 year old couple copulating in front of me on a blanket was interesting too... but possibly the most intriguing sight of the evening was the girls who were drunkenly trying to climb on their boyfriends' shoulders, and were too out of it to make it there, and just kept falling down. So that could be an interesting evening... As to other news going on in the Files... Las Vegas is out: Friday nights are tough for me unless it is over a vacation.But perhaps we can even do Hedonism III -- oops! -- I mean ConBENtion III this spring as well! As to cherry stems... you know it E. Ummm... what else... did I mention that it is going to be 75 degrees out today and tomorrow? And you know this is true, because whne I walked through the halls today, most of the girls were wearing short shorts and half cut tops, and there were even some guys in tank tops and cargo shorts! Ahhhhhhh... youth. Have a nice weekend everybody! - -Anne ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 07:27:27 -0800 From: "Kamp, Marcus S" Subject: Cherry-Tyin' Mommas All that and Amanda's a drummer. Attention all single males near her age & near her area...SEND IN APPLICATIONS NOW! It don't get much better'n that! BTW, Little Miss S, "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" is an old jazz tune from the '20s. Just tryin' to help. Em, no Seattle's Best is not Seattle's best. Trust me on that. Seattle's actual best is usually found in 1 of the millions of roadside, drive-thru espresso bars. The shittier-looking the place, the better the coffee. Carrie (Beelzeubbles?), "Cleveland's gorgeous"...Tee-Hee...I must've laughed for minutes! Markus ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 12:13:11 -0500 From: Carrie Subject: Beezebubbles here... (Thanks, Marcus, I liked that...:-)...) Actually, to prove Marcus as the retard that he is, "Perhaps, Perhaps, Perhaps" is actually an English translation of the old Argentinian tango, "Quizás, Quizás, Quizás". As far as the tongue discussion goes, I've never tried tying a cherry stem, but I know my tongue's more important abilities (vast though they may be), and that's what *really* matters. How much did you pay for your black leather jacket? Is it you or your parents in this income tax bracket? Carrie ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 15:39:55 -0600 (CST) From: wplusb@ix.netcom.com Subject: Viva Las Vegas In the last episode, Sandi had this to say for her self: I have a friend too (imagine that...Sandi has a friend?) and I'm hoping to weasel my way back there as well. *Perhaps* I'll even take Sista E (my accomplice on the DSS Tour '98) backstage with me...but only if she promises to be well-behaved. *That means no puking when Darren touches your face. (Southpark reference)* Well, my fellow sista' I have finally been able to control that auto-puke reaction. It's, ah, been challenging and frustrating, but ah, I feel strong. I believe Marcus has enrolled himself into some sort of Bedwetter's Anonymous group. As for all this *friend* business, you are full of *secret weapons*... Weasel on DS! Emily ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 14:06:44 PST From: "Jessica T" Subject: Ben plus carpet...a perfect combenation... Before I get to my twisted little mental images, I had better introduce myself. My name is Jessica (That's me, the girl who's not a teeny-bopper). I'm young...so whack me with a hotwheels track! I haven't been a fan for as long as most of you, I'm sure, but I must've made up the difference by now, having converted most of my friends into BFFans. {Don't you hate it when you lend somebody a BF5 (look! I'm getting in on the ground floor of THAT trend!) CD and then when you get in back and ask what they think they're like 'uhhh...whatever' and then they go back to their damn Prodigy CDs or something, and then as soon as they hear Brick on the radio they discover how much the band rocks and they're all 'lend it to me again!' and you have no choice but to kick their ass?!?? ya...I HATE that!} Anyway, back to me (I HEARED that!)...I'm the original Canadian fan....and it's not easy, believe me. But I was so impressed when at a radio interview in Toronto, Ben mentioned how some of his favorite pianists come from Canada, like Glen Gould....That Ben really knows his stuff...Word of advice.....NEVER EVER try to order a copy of the self-titled CD from HMV. (Do they have HMVs way down south?) When they SAY 3 days, they mean 3 months. BAH! One last thing....Congrats to whoever came up with the commercial idea...I would buy WHATEVER the boys were selling. I would love to see Ben in that carpet commercial. Here's a quick transcript for those who haven't seen it: SECRETARY: Just go on into the office, Mr. Folds...The boss will be in in a minute. BEN: *walks into the posh office* Oohh...new carpet! *look of pure glee* *takes off shoes and starts rubbing his feet on the carpet....gets progressively more excitied until he's lying on his back making carpet angels* (Get your minds out of the gutter, ladies!) I'm not sure what happens next, but the boss comes back, and the end of the commercial shows Ben hanging out the window. (I just realized that that commercial makes very little sense...But it is strangely enticing.) I LUV YOU GUYS! Jessica P.S. Axl Rose covering Brick would be awesome! ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 17:40:38 -0500 From: Carrie Subject: A letter from the girl next door... Hey Filers! I just got this letter from the girl who lives next door (a convertee). >VH1 said that brick was an autobiographical song about ben knocking up >some girl in high school. is this true? btw they are number 10 on the >countdown:) tell me, i am dying to know. > > >beth > >"eagles may soar, but a weasel will never get sucked into a jet engine" What the hell? Where does VH1 get off saying weird shit like that? Anybody else hear this? It's 80 degrees outside, I am dressed my butchest and doin' fine. Carrie ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 27 Mar 1998 18:00:55 EST From: Sandibrady Subject: Viva Las Vegas! Viva Las Vegas! What's this about Markus being a bed-wetter? Wow...very scary. Markus, why didn't you ever tell me? Were you going to wait until I found out for myself? haha. Alright, I'm assuming Markus did not appreciate Emily's comment as much as I did, so I'll let it go right there. Onward: Who's all going to Vegas!? I'll be hittin' up Vegas and Hollywood...apparently with both Sista' Em & Sista' Cal! Woo-hoo. I should also be attending my b-day show which is supposed to be held on my b-day (of course) in Austin, TX. Can't wait for this date to be set in stone so I can either make my flight reservations or get my car all geared up and ready to go. Talk about a long-ass drive. Wow. Besides the DSS tour, I will be getting ready to move in May, so you guys probably won't hear from me much in a couple months...I know you're all thrilled, but please try to keep your enthusiasm down to a low roar. San P.S. Dare I share other cities they are supposed to hit on this tour? Alright, here goes: Chicago, Cleveland, Detroit, Grand Rapids (or Columbus, OH), Toronto, Nashville, Memphis, etc. And the tour is supposed to go from April 29 until JUNE 12th. Yeeee-haw! ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Mar 1998 01:08:21 EST From: Sandibrady Subject: Some day my prince will come... Just returned from seeing Titanic for a 2nd time. I thought I'd actually be able to fend off the tears the 2nd time around, but no such luck. How depressing is that movie anyway? At least there's a bit of hope in it... Makes me think that maybe SOMEDAY my prince will come...my Jack Dawson....and if he happens to look a lot like Leonardo, so be it! Well, after a large Dr. Pepper and a movie packed with flowing WATER for 3 1/2 hours, I must finally take a potty break and then I'm off to frolick with some hot stud for the evening...this of course means I am going to SLEEP and will hopefully have nice dreams. - --Sandi ------------------------------ End of The Rockford Files V1 #67 ********************************
