Lyons" Subject: The usual Monday morning greeting from FL. I guess I feel the need to comment on the weekly activities of the RF each Monday. Kinda get a groove started for the week. Ready, set, okay! First. Dan was on FANatic. He can't talk about it. Okay. End of that thread. Moving on..... Remember Julie *anti_gavin*? How exciting, she is now = *anti_gavin/RF* Matthew, should we summon the troops and Eric R. from the deep woods for a possible assault? If you are anti-RF you are anti-THE WAY OF LIFE! I summon Anne to the front for a beautifully worded.....haiku. Courtney is back, Katy is lurking once more, Special K in daaaa House. Matthew has informed me that he and Spencer have locked themselves in the confessional booth and are not returning to daylight until Anne removes all the peanut butter from her skin. Markus has gained 5 pounds and hasn't left the house since Anne got drunk and grabbed the Skippy. Baby news also lurks--but, I also signed a bunch of shit and can't tell you anything until it happens (note sarcasm somewhere in there).... My boss is gone for a week. That translates into a GREAT parking spot for a week and sleep-ins! HEY! Neil Diamond Fall tour dates have been posted for a few shows (and a couple near me!) Time to pull the sequence pants out of storage....Markus, I don't see any Seattle dates yet, but I am sure you will get us tix when they announce, right? Hey, an excuse to travel 1000+ miles to visit a smart-ass (and I mean that in the most complementary way!!) That's it for now. As always, it has been pleasurable. Thanks for opening me. You may now delete me and put me with the rest of the trash... - -FL *anti-up or get the fuck out of the game!* oooooo, sorry, I didn't mean to say fuck....oops....I mean, well....nevermind. ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Jul 1998 07:20:41 PDT From: "Starre Smith" Subject: Cannibalism and the Squirrel Nut Zippers... Hi Filers... They were going to eat Ben! That's hilarious! I love the new Squirrel Nut Zippers Vid! :) It looks awesome... My mom is a huge fan of them and I love them too.. I borrowed her CD's to copy them and we went to see them in concert awhile back.. I had so much fun... :) Daniel:You don't have to apologize.. So you got picked.. No big deal...I just think the whole show is a crock because every single time there is someone on there they say "I was a shy person until I listened to so and so"... Its like their trying to make fans look like the band affected them so much, but maybe they didn't.. I dunno. Anyways, there's no reason for you to apologize.. And I think your very nice for telling me about this.. Thanks a lot.. I did get to be able to call though, which was a shock.. I thought maybe this would actually happen and like all other things with my life, it didn't... no biggie... :) Stella *Folds* ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Jul 1998 07:45:11 -0700 From: "Kamp, Marcus S" Subject: OK, All You 80s Trivia Heads... Quick, name a band from the early 80s whose lead singer was a Penthouse Pet & was married to her drummer (a former Zappa drummer who now works w/Jeff Beck, Tony Levin, Duran Duran, & amazing solo stuff), though they're now divorced & involved in a nasty legal dispute over the band's name...yer not quick enough, MISSING PERSONS. Well, we just got a call last night to open for them in September! TOO FUNNY, considering they're a new wave synth band & we're an acoustic pop band. I guess they figger that any 2 bands w/female singers'll go well together. I'm sure it'll be a kick, but I just hafta laugh (or I might not have a response @ all)! More advice...if ya see a "cow chair" (you'll know what I mean if/when ya see one), buy it!!! I did yesterday & I'm just tickled Guernsey! Hope it doesn't get spooked by the cats or its milk might go sour!

I have only seen a grainy-ass RealVideo feed of the SNZ video, and I didn't altogether understand what was going on during it. (It looked a bit like outtakes from "Big Night", to tell the truth.) I missed 120 Minutes last night since I was on the road until 2 am coming home from a nasty vacation...maybe MTV will wise up, play some decent videos, and I'll get to see it one of these days without having to squint at a two-inch picture and wonder who's saying what. Possibly not, but such are the joys of living, no? with love and pancake batter, Dan - --------------E178086027F2831F27CE8734 Content-Type: text/x-vcard; charset=us-ascii; name="wizard.vcf" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Description: Card for Dan Cohen Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="wizard.vcf" begin:vcard n:;Remove ~~NOSPAM~~ when replying x-mozilla-html:FALSE org: adr: version:2.1 end:vcard - --------------E178086027F2831F27CE8734-- ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 27 Jul 1998 23:34:09 PDT From: "Courtney Knopf" Subject: anti-dentite Oh dear... tomorrow morning I am going ot the oral surgeon to get a tooth pulled. All i have to say to that is EEEEK. Yah, sure I'll be knocked out, but I've been psychologically scarred by the dental profession. So much so that I can hardly get an x-ray of my teeth done without bursting into tears. I'm am the supreme dental wuss. Which is ironic since they may as well just set up scaffolding in my mouth. Oh the pleasures of being born with weak teeth. Genetics suck. they made me short as well as the Cavity Queen. rar. In other news..I enjoyed the SNZ clip on 120 last night. And I watched my tape of the Five on the TNT special for the first time in a couple months. Um.... yeah, I guess I should go now as I have to hit the hay (wherever that expression came from) and get up early in the morning for the "procedure." I'm lookng forward to having pain medication prescribed for me. Coedine all the way. Sorbet and mashed potatoes will be good too. If you need me, I'll be the one in the dazed stupor. ~Courtney The Sultraness of Swing "He was untoward." ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com ------------------------------ End of The Rockford Files V1 #197 *********************************
