And I'm a'wandrin'. >MATT: Sign me up for the Militant Nation of Old Folders!!! Marcus, you sound like a purist wing of office supplies. I wonder about the loss of Craig. I do. I mean, when Talk Soup lost Greg Kinnear, I nearly shot myself. But Jim Henson did an OK job. He would never be Greg, but he was fine, although it took me a long time to lose my outrage, and eventually stopped watching the show. Can anyone do it to me like Craig, ever, or will it only be cheap imitation? Besides, what is he wanting to do, go back to ESPN? I don't think he could try for the movie-acting route like Greg. He has brilliant subtlety, which ain't allowed in the pictures anymore. The networks won't do him justice. Matthew: Militia of Folds? (MOF) Militia of Ben? (MOB) Militia of Darren? (MOD) Oh yeah... You just let me know. I got a job, for those of y'all who were concerned. I'm a receptionist with Ingram's Magazine. I found out it's an operation of about 10 people that doesn't even have an email address and runs Windows 3.1 like the dickens. And these are the people who decide who's going to make it and who doesn't in the KC Metro area. *sigh* Ah well. It's good to be downtown. And Phil Hartman? My heart broke when my dad told me the news. Now all three of my all-time favorite SNL players is dead. (Jon Belushi, Gilda Radner...) *sigh* Life is not good to funny people. As my boyfriend would say, "You see, Carrie, God loves funny people MORE than he loves not-funny people. He just has to be NICER to not-funny people because they can't take a joke." Little Bentent. I am bad. I'm going to work.

Not to belittle the inherent genius of our beloved Craiggers, but that "flowers blooming, sonics choking" line has been around ACC basketball country for years...unfortunately often referring to my beloved Tarheels' inability to go all the way in the NCAA tournament. I've been hearing it since I was a kid... But anyway, just to clear something up. Yes, my name really is Ginger. All of my life I've heard everything from gingerbread girl to ginger spice to "hey! where's the skipper?" to my personal fave, gingervitis. It's enough to make me empathize with One Angry Dwarf (subtle Bentent there). Okay, that's all. Ginger :) Ooooo Ginger Nance ( ) ginger_nance@unc.edu ) ( http://www.unc.edu/~gnance (o) GO HEELS!! ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 29 May 1998 07:27:04 -0700 From: "Kamp, Marcus S" Subject: Craig Yeah, whoopie!!! Now, if I stay up till 2:30 in the feckin' mornin' I can see Craig Kilborn!!! No offense, but gimme a break! That feckin' sucks! That's all I hafta say about that!

Just when I thought I was *finally* going to forget about *those* early days spent learning how to kill someone in 2 seconds and learning which bugs and plants I should and should not eat, the movement has reared its head once more. Not that I never thought this would never occur. As all good Americans know, revolution is imminent. Rome fell, as did the many dynasties in China. So what the hell. Count the 'ole FL in for some fun. BTW, that Phil Hartman thing really *shook* me up. I was driving to a CUBS (can you say CHOKE?) game yesterday and heard it while I was driving. I surprised myself how much it effected me. That kind of news is *very* depressing.... Next: It is like I forgot I have a webpage. But, being *sooooo* hungover today, I figured I would work on it a bit. So, for your viewing pleasure, I submit to you the "ROCK OF AGES." A page devoted to those who have sent their RF Profiles to me. You can get their through the Rockford Files link on the main menu (http://members.tripod.com/~elyons/ben_menu.htm). The link is under the MEMBERS heading on the page. Anyone else like the URGE song they're playing on dee radio? Anyone else want to kick Jessie from Mtv in the face?? Can you say annoyance? I guess the REAL WORLD *SEATTLE* starts soon. Look for Markus to *pop up* in many episodes as the *local* who sleeps with all the grrl roommates. So after reading everyone's reviews of shows, I guess Ben Folds Five *really* is for the childun... Yo. peace out. - -FL ------------------------------ Date: Fri, 29 May 1998 14:30:27 -0700 From: That Little Voice Inside Your Head Subject: ATTN: Any California Anyone! Read This! hi all, Lora here. As a lot of you know, I run Gregory Page's website http://www.angelfire.com/ca/gregorypage Some of you don't know who he is, some of you do, some of you just don't care, but that won't stop me from getting this point across. Gregory is a local san diego musician who is on FF3 (that applies to the EDAS), opens for many many bands around San Diego, yada, yada. Well, this is it folks, Gregory may be able to get the big break he was and is hoping for. June 10th, at the Troubadour, he will be playing with a full band, opening for Agents Of Good Root, we need as many people in Gregory's corner to yell scream, holler, and chant. There will be record people there looking to check on him. Then finally, maybe we will all get to hear that album, A Long Way From Heaven, that everyone in the local SD scene is buzzin about. Here's the thing, how many of you would be willing to purchase tickets before hand, if you were able to get free transportation up there, no joke, this is totally serious. For all of you sitting here, reading this, laughing at this, think of this, Gregory has been performing for so many years, to please anyone who would listen. Everyone knows there are so many great musicians out there, wanting, needing to be noticed, and just think that you could be helping one of them. Thanks if you actually read down to the full bottom line here folks.
