I have a dramatic one "Romeo, oh Romeo" and I need a current classic to go with it. Classic comedy in the theater?

Elisabeth asked me to post, and post i shall. besides, i just won 34 games of Freecell in a row, and i think i need a break from my dorkdom. it's been a long weekend. I dislike valentine's day a great deal. the only good thing about it is that my grandma sends me her really yummy milk chocolate covered sugar cookies. mmmmmm. grandma's a big favourite around my apartment. My friend Erik has been doing a lot of extra work on Buffy The Vampire Slayer lately. Aparently Sarah Michelle Gellar is a flaming bitch. ooh, what a shocker. plus the her and the girl who plays Faith hate eachother. tee hee. you know what's weird? seeing your ex-boyfriend's ex-girlfriend on TV. that's strange. you know what's even stranger? I was made to go with my friends to an OXYGEN BAR on friday night. it was just too hip for me. the concept of buying 20 minutes with an oxygen mask just eludes me. Well, it's official. I've put all of my BFF cds in my stereo. the tour dates have revitalized my love. now i'm just trying to figure out how i can afford to fly to see them at Amherst. Travelocity quoted me $460, but the Travel section of the sunday paper was a tad bit more reasonable with $280. but still.. i'm po'. and i'm thinking spring break in Paris will pretty much exhaust my funds. rar. Is it me, or do the pictures on the official site seem to reveal that Ben is losing even more hair? don't forget to listen to my show tonight! ~Courtney The Sultraness of Swing "I hope evil takes Mastercard." - -- ************* ICQ: 24901402 AOL IM: CourtSpork Laugh until you wet yourself; read The Shrubbery. http://www.theshrubbery.prohosting.com Listen to my radio show, "Swing and the Single Girl" every Tuesday night from 12-4am PST live in Real Audio at http://kscr.usc.edu. ************* ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Feb 1999 22:12:14 -0500 From: Kristin Klevering Subject: VD apologies Hi all - Well, my sweetie did finally come around. I didn't do anything, or say anything to him. He just got reamed out by the social workers working the night shift with him about how he didn't do anything for our first Valentines day together. So he came to my place the next day (I had it off, President's Day - damn I love being a government employee), and gave me flowers and chocolates. I didn't give him too much grief. I just told him I was glad that he brought me these things, as I really didn't want to dump him, but I was ready to do that. So things are okay in my world now. Eric - thanks for the advice. Unfortunatlely, I'll be caring for my Mom after her surgery tomorrow for the rest of the week and weekend. Arrgh - no email! But I'll live. Later - Kristin ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 16 Feb 1999 23:45:47 EST From: Pianogtar@aol.com Subject: So i am the new guy so sue me. Hello all, though I know none of you.

George ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 17 Feb 1999 02:08:05 -0600 From: "Anoop Ranganath" Subject: George...on the Rockford Files...two worlds collide Welcome to George, everybody's favirte opiate (actyally, nobody's favorite opiate, but who's counting). I'm glad you're here, it's a ton of fun. Before I say anything else, let me preface my infrequent post with the fact that I'm very very inebriated right now. I'll try to correct my spelling, but in my current coondition, japanese looks like shakespeare. Anywyas, I have two stories to tell, one of my back, and one of mardi gras, both are pretty interesting. First my back, about three weeks ago, I was finally gettign around to converting some Jump, Little Children boots I had made on minidisc to CD. So I went over to a friend's dorm cause he had a swankass soundcard, and was bending over the back of his desk hooking up the minidisc deck when i felt this twinge in my back. It was nothing at that point, so i just ignored it. over the period of the next ten minutes it got worse and worse, so i thought i'd just lie on the floor until it went away. once i got on my back, i couldn't get up. needless to say, this wasn't a good thing. I couldn't reach the phone, but luckily i had my cellphone on my, so i called some friends, and they came over. We tried to figure out what to do, but since i was in incredible pain, and it had to do with my back, we called the hospital, and they told us to call 911. So we call 911, and my friends went down to the street to bring them up to the dorm room. a minute later a police car pulled up, followerd my a fire engine, folllowed by an emergency rescue vehicle, followed by an ambulance. 10 people come up to the room and they start taking my blood pressure, checking all my vital signs, and poking around my body. It was insanely weird. They load me up on a stretcher and take me down to the ambulance and i go to the hospital. They hook my up to the electroshock therapy machine, and it loosens up my back muscles to the point where i can walk again, and I was back to myself within a few days. That was pretty weird. Now on to Mardi Gras. I live in Birmingham, Alabama. This is right in the middle of Alabama. My friends were flying down from Boston to Mobile which is at the southern tip of Alabama. I picked up my friend and his two friends at the airport there, and started to head to New Orleans. His friends are the most arrogant pricks I've ever met in my life. It was unbelieveable. I wanted to beat them both the whole two hours to New Orleans. So we finally get them there, and I dropped them off at my friend's house (he lives in NO), and made my way to the apartment I was staying at. As I was carrying my stuff from the car to the apartment, I dropped a good bit of it. When I got into the apartment, and got ready to call my friend to figure out what the plans were for the next day. I flipped on my organizer and all the stuff in it was erased from when I dropped it. I still don't know what happened to my friend. The next day some other friends came in to NO and were staying with me. We saw a bunch of parades that day and went to Bourbon Street that night, and both of my friends got pickpocketed, it was crazy. So we report that and then party for the rest of the night. The next morning, (sunday) my friends woke me up at noon and told me they were going back to mobile. I woke up a couple of hours later, and realized that my keys were in the back of their car. So I called a locksmith, and he came out and made a key for my car, and I swung by mobile, and got my keys and went back home. Basically, my thoughts are mardi gras go kinda like this. It's neat to see all the parades, and bourbon street is something to see once at least. but it got old really quick. I like breasts as much as the next guy, and lesbians are _so_ incredibly fascinating still, but it was just way to much for one night. I'm still trying to sort everything out, it was sensory overload at it's greatest. Anyways, that's my last two weeks. I've been a slackass student, and my love life hasn't changed, but it's all good.
