Lots of familiar faces here...Rockrighter is the one who showed me the way to the light...a big round of applause for ROCKRIGHTER!!!!!!!!

So, uh, hi :) I'm this, like, HUGE Pearl Jam fan. I think what REALLY got me hooked was my fifteenth PJ concert, in Lubbock this year. Up until then I was just kinda there for the party, but something caught me in Lubbock. Oh, yeah, it was "Everyday." Hey, no I'm hooked :)

I'll see you all around when I'm not already late for bed.

And I'll work on my bio, too!

More than happy to spread this jam. It's raspberry jam. The best jam there is.

Make sure to check out the FAQ to learn all the nifty thingies we can do here (and if you ever get stuck, which I doubt you will, I've found many people here to be of great service).

I'm glad you came by. /images/smile.gif /images/cool.gif

Of course I found you, i had to track you down.

Everytime I see your name, i think "DEBATE!" It's where we first crossed paths, many moons ago. Abortion, wasn't it? Or maybe the death penalty? there have been so many debates!!

So, what do you have to do HERE to get banned?

like I said...many moons ago...you were new at Synergy, and we actually got kinda pissed at each other and ended up publicly apologizing to the board because we both made fools of ourselves. God, if I could only remember the topic...there was someone else, a troll, and we were responding to him in different directions and ended up mad at each other because of it. Must have been back in May or June.... no memories?

oooohhhh, was it when i went off on the guy for posting about Creed(ouch)? I seriously do not remember ever posting a public apology on the board. You got the right person here? I was totally new to the board in May and June so I would not have been debating anyone there. That Musicw/Substance character came around sometime in July tho... does that ring a bell?

isn't it funny how we remember who sends us our first pm? it was panthergirl for me, and yes, I've still got it! I totally remember seeing the little "1 Private Messages" thing in red, and before that, I had not even realized that pm's existed!

okay, i'll shut up now.

...now you got me wondering.

Don't you HATE it when you think you remember something and someone says "no, it went this way and that way, not that way and this way."


But I REMEMBER that you were new at the time, because I was thinking "what's up with the newbie?" :) Not that I was much more than a newbie myself...I signed on April Fools Day.

i do hate it when i can't remember shit i should... half the time i'm like, did that happen, or was that a dream? or did i just think about doing it and now i think i really did?
i usually remember the ones i spar with however... and the only ones i really remember (other than Kat & Sea of course) are that guy Musicw/Substance and Rogue Trader, who basically told me where I could go. He loves me now tho! /images/wink.gif

hey rock, i thought that was TOTAL bullshit that they used to delete her poems to the members of the board... I LOVED THOSE THINGS!!! They deleted mine too. Pissers. Why would they do that?

anyway, here is my Om1 poem, dated 19June2000

My Tribute to 13throwcenter...

Fear the mighty Volvo!
For it bears a Super Mother
she drives her kid to schools and games
with a quickness like no other

She weaves through all the traffic
with finesse and grace and style
and she scoots off her little darling
with a kiss and an angelic smile

Once upon a time ago
when Pearl Jam visited town
they saw her whiz by the concert hall
and all they could say was "wow"

Pearl Jam got really inspired
by the village's shining star
so they wrote a lovely song for her
this goddess in a mini fast car...

thank you *bows*
(PJ reference (10 points): Mini Fast Car)

I just bought two suits today, getting ready for a job at a BANK. Ugh, what a sellout. My goal is to be debt free and working on my masters in special ed by 2002, but for now... they get so damned excited but I guess it's their way.

I really HATE the fact that you can't afford to work at a job that HELPS people in this country. At least not with college loans to pay off...

Ugh.

OK, that wasn't out of the blue...i just noticed your sig and it got me thinkin...

I worked at a bank for 5 months. After BK,(where I logged precisely 36 hours) that is the shortest time period I ever worked any job, ever. I hated it. Felt like a robot, and it was always all about the money- money money money. Go figure,eh?

Good luck to you tho, pages... at least you got a plan!

if all works out well, I'll be a loan manager. Debt consolidation, home improvement loans, stuff like that.

Not exactly how I like ot change the world, but hey, what can I say? The more money I make, teh fewer months I have to spend paying off my debt and NOT doing what i want to do with my life.

I just need to start volunteering somewhere to stay healthy-minded. I'm thinkin of doing Big Brothers/BIg Sisters.

I hate it, but I'm biting the bullet for awhile.

There's a bowl-a-thon coming up in BC and I'm thinking about having my human rights group, which has been doing 3 quarters of fuck-all lately, enter a team and collect pledges for BB.

That reminds me... I have to get our logo .gif thingie so I can put it up here, like I can put up THIS!
