That was supposed to be a SECRET, Kwissy. Why don't you just go ahead and tell them all about our illegitimate love child that you threw out with the bath water, huh? Oh, wait. I'm thinking of that other Kwis. Sorry. The future is here, people. Right on this list. At least a good part of it is. There's that other part that isn't, you know, the part where John Ashcroft's hand picked virgin evangelical young men march into your loft in Amsterdam and stick a pole up your ass for doubting Creationism and for your lack of a personal relationship and complete acceptance of JESUS CHRIST as your personal Lord and Saviour. If you're a Muslim they'll stick your ass in jail forever. Quick, somebody go let the air out of Air Force One's tires! That way you Brits can keep him! But I digress (as though I do anything else). The Amorphous Androgynous stuff (aka FSOL) that's they've put out has dissappointed me a lot. It's just so poorly done. I've decided that the ep Mello Hippo Disco Show they put out is way better but still not quite there. Excuse me while I grab my axe and flail on some heavy metal godliness! [makes devil sign and wags tongue while playing a scorching metal lead just like Eddie Van Halen would except only WAY better and faster] Yeah!!! Heavy Metal Rules!!! Ozzy! Ozzy! Ozzy!

Nice shades... le Freak, c'est Chic!

And what a range of talent she has to rap over all those different styles. I don't think of them as remixes so much as different songs with the same rapper. _________________________________ www.psychicreform.com Change your mind. _________________________________ "Life is a round of miniature golf only larger, and with a more ambiguous final score." -- Zippy the Pinhead _________________________________

>yo bill whats up? not much, working & listening to the music = long distant past and present. Some fine stuff I missed from Rising High records. Ever done anything with any of their bands ? How you doing, by the way? P.S. My mrs did all the flowers for Arnold's Inauguration Parties, so I broke through the FBI line to view the Luxury Suite. Never had time to check the drawers but Mrs Terminator sleeps on the right and likes a white rose on her pillow (You never know when this information might come in useful!) #### Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour, That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned, A sun that is the source of all our power. The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see Are moving at a million miles a day In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour, Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'. Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars. It's a hundred thousand light years side to side. It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick, But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide. We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point. We go 'round every two hundred million years, And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions In this amazing and expanding universe. The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding In all of the directions it can whizz As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know, Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is. So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure, How amazingly unlikely is your birth, And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, 'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth. _________________________________________________________________ >From the hottest toys to tips on keeping fit this winter, youll find a range of helpful holiday info here. http://special.msn.com/network/happyholidays.armx

If every woman paid as much daily attention to her backside as you Rachel, the world would be a better place. Seriously though, I do use your website like every day (changing desktops) and I take it for granted. I want to see pictures of Emmie the scanmaster or whatever.

but I was hoping for something a little less Enya-ish. Couldn't agree more that latest FSOL sounds like it should be in the new age section, not just a disappointment but horrible! _________________________________________________________________ Need a shot of Hank Williams or Patsy Cline?

We haven't done any personal B2M's lately. Hell we havent done anything as a group. I slave all day over a hot vaporizer w/digital readouts and this is the thanks I get. I want a divorce. And to commemorate Thrash's sebatical and our divorce here is my B2M. Nathaniel Merriweather Lovage - Music To Make Love To Your Old Lady By That was easy.
