They say you can't go home again. After going to college and living in a dorm room, coming back home is so dull in comparison.

I think this shows an INHERENT fear of the song brick being played on the radio all the time. You see ben as a driving force behind the band and Robert having some kind of musical directional help. The song brick scares you (showed by that wall) and its being ruined by the radio Robert is playing with. you show an admiration of ben but feel that he is above you initially then reliase in the end that he is just a human too.

Heh. OK. This job thang is extremely beneficial to my CD collection, recently ravaged by some punk who made off with all my music (sob). I have acquired the new B-boys, some Millennium Funk Par-tay thing which will be cool once Dan-tape time rolls around (Brick House anyone?), and the BSO disc which I'd been putting off for a long time. Courtney, I agree with you on one thing...Meghan Ivey's vocals do annoy me after a while. Yes, that was a retro reference, but there you have it. Oh yes, and sorry about the driver's test, dear. *snort* No, seriously, my best friend failed hers too, running through three consecutive (!) red lights on the main drag in town. Hehe. I still can't find Belle and Sebastian anywhere other than Sound Garden, which means I'll have to drag my arse down into the city this week to get my fill. They're cheap there anyway... I watched that "I had sex with my intern, and her friend, and her cousins, and the Barbi Twins who happened to lose their tops after I _accidentally_ sprayed them with a fire hose" thing on tv last night. Clinton looked a bit peaked. I liked listening to the Republicans dis him for not going into detail about it, too. What did they want, diagrams? About that SLAP mah FRO! post...are you insinuating something, Liz? I have no fro anymore. I thought that was resolved...oh yes. Before I go off again, three things... 1. Hush Puppies rule. They absolutely rule. 2. Bootlegs rule. 3. Shaving sucks. I hung on a zit this morning and the thing's been bleeding for twenty minutes. I really respect girls' leg things now. It must suck to not be able to say "the hell with it, I'm growing a beard". By the way, the Dan-goatee is starting to inch back into my face. Bah.

Just a few quick things... First of all... not to sound like a bitch or anything, but could we all try to keep the obscenities out of the subject lines? I understand that sometimes it seems necessary to curse and whatnot... but as I get the RF at work, it's a bit of a beating to scroll past a list of four letter words -- in CAPS no less! That's all... E: Glad to hear that you've got a new career! Wow... a fledgling dad and an embryonic stand up comedian! Perhaps you are so $$$$$$... naaaahhhhhh... I knew that already! *grin* BTW, I'm still laughing at the "look, no hands!" comment! Carrie: I too like the idea of renting a van and putting a great big religious sign on it... but let's go all out and put Cult of Folds on it -- Eric can drive and everyone else can wear robes (and of course throw empty Ol' Milwaukee cans out the window! *smile* Stella: Here's your own personal Dream Annealysis... You wrote: >I was in a van with BFF, Ben was driving and Robert was >sitting there cranking the radio.. all of the sudden this big >brick wall came up, and WHAM! we got into a wreck.. So, first off, lemme say that it was not Ben's fault that he drove into a wall... I mean, it sounds like it came outta nowhere... along with George Michael and Andrew whosiface, but let's save that annealysis for another day. = D No, seriously, there weren't many clues in your dream -- so it is difficult to say what any of it means. The key thing (that I can see) is that Ben was being non-communicative (compounded by the fact that he wore sunglasses). So is there someone in your life that you are trying to get through to, but who insists on distancing themselves from you? That's all I came up with... Anoop & Meg: On the subject of y'all... my sister-in-law, who is from Texas, insists that it is written ya'll. Of course, we tried to say that that would be a contraction of "ya" and "all", but she seems to think that is perfectly OK. Not that this is really contributing to your thread... just thought I would mention it! Anoop: I'll join the "favorite book" thread... Here are some of my favorites (books & plays). I kept it to one book per author to be fair. Water of Life, Henry Thornton Robinson (absolutely a must read if you can find a copy... it is out of print...) Gone With the Wind, Margaret Mitchell Lonesome Dove, Larry McMurtry The Water is Wide, Pat Conroy The Eight, Catherine Neville Beloved, Toni Morrison The Belgariad Series & The Mallorean Series, David Eddings Anna Karenina, Leo Tolstoy The Pillars of the Earth, Ken Follett Ronsencrantz & Guildenstern Are Dead, Tom Stoppard A Farewell to Arms, Ernest Hemingway The Killer Angels, Michael Shaara A Confederacy of Dunces, John Kennedy Toole Pride & Prejudice, Jane Austen Lolita, Vladimir Nabokov The Last Hurrah, Edwin O'Connor Trinity, Leon Uris Their Eyes Were Watching God, Zora Neale Hurston And who can forget... To Kill a Mockingbird, Harper Lee As you can see -- I don't really fit into one genre... I like 'em all! But if anyone wants to write to me to discuss any of these (or any other novels that I didn't put on here!) or to ask me what I think of them -- please feel free!!! Another great book that I just finished is Shes' Come Undone by Wally Lamb... it's also worth a read... Welp. That'll be all...

I'm, as you can probably read from the header, Luke, younger than 25, but older than 18. Born in England, I've been into Ben Folds Five since about early-mid 1996, I think, when one of my friends (bless you, John, bless you) played the eponymous album in his car. Smitten straight away I was. Which is unusual, believe me. I've been fortunate enough to see them play live three times, in July and December 1997, and in June of this year. And, my, aren't they good? Also into various punky stuff, old and new, psychadelic pop, and Crowded House. Yes. Any questions?

Not only am I irritated as well that swing is a fad, I've become exceedingly happy that the anti-"ska" revolution has entered full swing territory! Note that I do not mean ska in its pure Jamaican sense, which is cool by any regard, but the evil bastard child of Orange County, CA (hehe Kathy-rin), and I hope everyone shudders to see this word on their screens, ska-punk... Ah yes. The music where all the bands have a third-rate trombonist (tromboner? Oooh...) who got kicked out of his/her high-school band for pot possession and a lead singer who sounds like he chews fiberglass insulation to get his voice in shape. The only semi-good ska-punk outfit I can think of besides the originals (Specials, Suicide Machines, Toasters, etc...all of whom are legit enough to be real ska) is Less Than Jake, and only based on the lyrics of their song "Jonny Quest Thinks We're Sellouts". Hehe. Hmmm...unusually large response to my thoughts on Clinton last night...we were discussing it at work today with our co-workers and a few of us decided that we admired him for the amount of women he gets. I hate to be crude, but the men know what I'm talking about. It makes you feel damn proud to be an American when your leader is a walking groove magnet and, consequently, sex machine. I also opened a deep, jagged cut with a razor blade on my finger today and I realized something: When your hands are already covered with scratches and cuts from work, it ain't a good idea to handle an alcohol pad to disinfect the newest one.

Bad news from Mpls. Some crackhead entered our house when my roommates and I were here and stole my bike (w/ the lock what the hell good is the lock w/o the key. I guess you could use it to bludgeon someone to death if it's one of those Kyrptonite ones like mine) and some other stuff. (the other stuff was recovered when some righteous citizen scared the guy away from a park and the things he left had our phone number on it). Now it takes me 3x longer to get anywhere. Also, problems w/ the opposite sex. My girlfriend went to India (dots not feathers unless you're Columbus) for the month of august, but before she left things were not so peachy. We discussed and concluded to not be involved w/ each other until she returns whereas we would discuss the outlook. I know that when she gets back I'll have to tell her that I'd like to date other people, even though I care immensely for her. Such is life. Any advice? jon the speedhead- hell yeah! (just had to) 1) tell your girlfriend your feelings but not who the girls are with whom you have crushes on. 2) Leave the Gap, just because if you do decide to date one of these girls (women?) and things go sour, you'll be in a world of cold shoulders. I agree with someone else who said that you're not read to be seriously dating right now. hell yeah. Thoughts on last nights media overload.... I don't know how much having sex w/ an intern effects the way one governs a nation (strike nation, we are NOT a nation, replace with country). Yeah, he shouldn't have done it or lied. Does this prevent him from making executive decisions? I guess I'm too much of a libertarian at heart, keep the gov't out out people's bedrooms. Agreement w/matthew. Gap is overpriced (but not nearly as overpriced as Abercrombie! Fuck me, I went in to buy a flannel and because it was "prewashed & preruggedized" it was about $50! If I want things to feel broken in when I buy them I'll go to ragstock or some other secondhand store). I prefer American Eagle, I don't know if they're a national chain, but in the Midwest they're all about. Also, see Pvt. Ryan damn you! I really liked the Tom Sizemore character. no real reason I guess. thoughts and replies are welcome.

You feel that the success of "Brick", in other words the extensive*radio play* has ruined your previously intimate connection to the band - represented by you cruising around with them in a big family vehicle like a van. You may even blame the band for this, hence them cranking the radio and driving right into the wall. so. . .you "wake up" because you're not comfortable with these neagitve feelings towards the band. . . >then >I remember conciously waking up later and it was when I was at their >concert, Ben was there with his girlfriend Ben's girlfriend and his ignoring you symbolize the newfound fame and popularity that you feel seperates you from the band. . . >and I tried talking to him >but he didn't realize anything about me... he wouldn't talk to me and I >was just there with him...

They gave each other sly looks, flipping long hair out of the way, earrings glinting in the dim light. [this next line refers to the main characters fighting at their table] This guy was fried. Man, look at him go. Cool. The girlfriend wasn't digging it, either. Him taking a trip she's not on. Kind of weird he's drinking chardon-fucking-nay. . . .. The first twangs on electric guitars shattered the din, and sticks beat-beat and beat-beat-beat. Cymbals crashed and crashed. . .
