["My name is Peter Destructo] Re: Thread of fun things to do with instruments... [Daniel F Jarvis Subject: schizophrenia (off topic, naturally) That's a bit sad. One of my friends from university suffered from extreme delusions, bordering on schizophrenia (he thought the radio was talking to him and that a mercenary group was out to kill him just because he tapped into the wrong internet site). He had to get psychiatric help and take time off from uni. Actually, it's quite scary when a schizophrenic person makes it a point to pay exclusive attention to you. Best thing to do is to just waaallkkk awaaaay...... It's wierd that one of the bouncers wouldn't have intervened. That is, if they were being bothered during their set. Theresa. >Insane crazy. It was funny, cause Josh and Kevin were just kind of humoring >her. I think she was schizophrenic. Kevin actually used me as a sort of a >decoy to get her to go away.

Just thought you might all be interested in my little story that sort of involves Katherine Whalen: Last night I got off work at KMart at 7:00, and decided to run to the mall to get some minidiscs, cause I'm out right now. Well, I got the minidiscs (a nice pack of 8, made by Sony, in there own box!), and proceded to leave the place, but then I remembered that Tori Amos' new single had come out, and thought I'd drop by a music store across from the mall, and grab it. Well, I hopped out of my car, and went inside. Found the single for $6.99, and since I'm so cheap, I decided to try to find it cheaper elsewhere (My goodness--It only has 3 songs on it!!!). Well, I walked out to my car, reached into my pocket to get my keys, and WHOOM, I couldn't find them! Well, I looked in my car window, and there they were, dangling from the ignition! SO, I went to a payphone, and dialed my parents house, hoping they would be home to bring me my extra keys, well, no such luck, they were at the local fair (Even though it was raining), so I spent two hours walking around in the rain, and also inside the mall. (Be patient, Katharine's coming up soon!) Well, I was walking outside, in the rain, past the Olive Garden, and guess who's album they were playing on the loudspeaker outside? That good old Katharine Whalen's! Just thought I'd tell you all that! Maybe more people are fans of hers than we think! Sincerely, the longtime lurker; Daniel J.

For example I went to Dunkin' Donuts to get something to eat and there was this gorgeous girl behind the counter and when I got my food and started eating it I noticed that there was a long strand of her hair in it.

Now that's some cool stuff! Did it play two notes at once? It would be sweet if you could make the two notes be like a minor third apart... give a cool sound. Anyway... rock on. :) Dan Jarvis ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 28 Aug 1999 02:14:53 EDT From: SNZfreak@aol.com Subject: Tom I just went onto the SNZ mammoth page and there is new stuff there.
