What are you trying to do to it? It's not Frankenstein's monster for chrissakes! Seriously, when you say you "hold a screwdriver to it", I'm assuming you mean you're bypassing the starter solenoid. Are you driving a Ford by chance, and you touch those two bolt-looking things on the doohickie on the fender? If so, you can buy one of those starter solenoids for about $10 at any auto parts store and you can install it yourself. Just remember to unbolt BOTH cables from the battery first, change the solenoid, and then put the cables back on the battery. ALWAYS disconnect the black (negative - ) FIRST, and ALWAYS connect the black (negative - ) LAST: that way, you won't get any big sparks which could damage stereo equipment, explode the battery, or discharge the airbag. Yes, I'm serious. If you want more info, e me. I work on and race cars all the time. >(subliminal sex reference--'cause > i'm horny > baby! yeah!!!--now THAT'S the flick *i* want to see...) Hey, me too!! My buddy's birthday is on June 11, and we're going to dress as our fave Austin Powers character, go to the 7 pm showing, and then hit a martini bar after and get pissed right sideways!

(warning: shameless self-promotion) posted tabs for never said, russian girl, explain it to me, and fuck and run. never said was screwed up on my site for a day or two, b/c liz played it 1 1/2 steps down from the studio recording, but it's all fixed now. yay! i'm covered through sunday. is/was the nyc phfest today saturday or june 12 saturday? i'm confused. there's a songwriting contest at billboard.com that i'm entering, so i thought i'd tell you guys/gals about it in case there's any aspiring musicians here. it costs $30 i think, but they'll send you feedback on your tape, which is the main reason why i'm entering. just a thought. ...ray **************************************************************************** "I'm a wreck, I'm obsessed, I'm insane.

You lost me there. Also, speaking of "Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except for Me and My MOnkey", that's a really annoying son to have in your head, czu when you tell some one you have a song in your head, and they ask which one, it'[s takes a really long time to spit that whole answer out. Is the plural of Monkey Monkeys or Monkies? Coincidentally, I'm at a website that has as a title of a page "gas-monkies-tacos-fonts" , and that just doesn't look right. It's "monkeys" isn't it? Okay.

This is a really good idea! Here's my list in random order, except for the very first one, totally me! "Thank you" are my two fave words in the whole world for some reason. :) 1. Kind and Generous - Natalie Merchant 2. Elsewhere - Sarah McLachlan 3. Fear - Sarah McLachlan 4. Canary - gee...who? 5. What Makes You Happy - soo much like my relationship with my mother. 6. I'm Sensitive - Jewel 7. Heart of Gold - Sheryl Crow 8. The Difficult Kind - Sheryl Crow 9. Change the World - Eric Clapton 10. Awful - Hole As for albums of my adolescence, they would have to be Nirvana's Nevermind and Pearl Jam's Ten. The two albums I listened to constantly before I hit middle school. Brings back memories everytime I listen to them, especially the lovely mud walk...ahhhhh. Better than anything else that I've tried...

It was 28 dollars and after three attempts to get some information on it I have almost given up. They don't have a track listing. They have no description AT ALL. I aksed if I could purchase and return it sealed if it wasn't what I was looking for. They said "NO". So I'm turning to you guys as a source of info (because you all are usually more informed than the ones with the goods). If anyone has heard of this cd please contact me. I suspect it's either some sort of bootleg or it was mislisted. Otherwise, I encourage everyone to avoid buying from this company considering their lackluster attempts at customer service. I'm sure as hell not paying 28 bucks for a cd that could be whipsmart mislisted. Sorry for my little rant, but I'm cranky.:) Lighter stuff: The silkscreen poster from 1994 tour can be bought sirectly from the artist/affiliate company. Go to www.arminski.com . They were very polite and helpful and the poster was much cheaper than I'd seen it anywhere else. thank you mark at webjump for putting those mp3s up! I didn't get to go to a show with "conversation..." so it's like a little after tour present. Also I think we should organize a tape tree already from the live recordings of this tour. Everyone wants them and it's the best way for us to get good quality tapes in an efficient manner. If someone has already suggested this then umm I second that.:) Also I would like to apply for a chaperone for the june 10th liz thing! I still don't understand the chaperone thing, but I NEED to go:) I am all trembling and silly excited! I may not need a chaperone, but I would love to hang with other phans.i love you all and I can't wait. this wil be my fifth liz show god i love new york and ill love it more in november when im 21. goodnight all - ---melissa ------------------------------ End of support-system-digest V2 #164 ************************************
