in March 1st, 2006 @ 09:57Wow. Why was Luna’s first, then?
I got a Creative Zen, which is just a cheap ipod. I’ve got it all registered on my computer, the software all installed, and I just can’t figure out how to get music onto the library for the mp3 player. I don’t know how to get the stuff from Window’s Media player to Creative Zen media player. But my brother has the exact same thing I do, so I’ll ask him about it when he gets back from school.

in March 1st, 2006 @ 16:14The Creative Zen is so cool! I want one! Mraaah!
Now I’m done. I have to stop coveting so much stuff. At the moment, I want a box of See’s candy and a hug. Today was not good for my self-esteem.

in March 1st, 2006 @ 16:34The random winds of chance, I guess.
I used to have a Zen Micro. But I killed the headphone jack by wrapping the headphone cord around the player while it was still plugged in. So watch out for that.

Rhonda: Aren’t the random winds fate?
Ikol: No, that’s just winds of fate. They’re not random.
Stig: Cruel winds of fate.
Rhonda: Yes, cruel winds of fate.

I don’t have an iPod. Who needs one when you can have a fully loaded entertainment center laptop (or notebook, for some of you.)?
“Burp.”
I’ve been getting Muse for a long time now… But I’ve only been blogging (collectively) for… Oh, probably a few hours.

in March 1st, 2006 @ 18:57I don’t have any MP3 player. On the other hand, almost all of my music is stored in wma format, so there you go. WMAs don’t take up so much space, and I like them better.
Congratulations Monty! Your letter was printed! I didn’t know you were called Amanda, though.
Thai ginger potato chips are skiddy dense. I love spicy food.
Ikol: I don’t.
Stig: Fine, then, Mr. Blandman.
Rhonda: “Hey Mr. Blandman…” *sings*

in March 1st, 2006 @ 20:47And chance is a wind. Let me quote Wicked.
Wizard of Oz: I never asked for this,
Or planned it in advance,
I was merely blown here,
By the winds of chance.
I never saw myself
As a Solomon or Socrates,
I knew who I was:
One of your dime a dozen
Mediocrities.
Then suddenly I’m here,
Respected, worshipped even.
And all because the folks in Oz
Needed someone to believe in.
Does it surprise you,
I got hooked, and all too soon?
What can I say?
I got carried away
And not just by ballooooooon………Et cetera, et cetera. You get the picture.

Paul Baker
in March 2nd, 2006 @ 03:21Awwww! I’m touched!
Someone wants a whole Come Back Paul Baker Blog!
I do most sincerely apologise to the denizens of this august forum for my recent absence. I have of late been immured in a plethora of pleasant but somewhat dilatory tasks, to wit:
I am editing music for my new Shawm Band, which next meets on Friday.
The Queen of Muses has engaged me to write sundry short fripperies. Being but oddments, they will not appear with my name upon them. See if you can spot them.
I’m constructing a renaissance guitar for a client in Sutton Coldfield, and a medieval dulcimer for a nice lady in Japan.
I am tutoring a folk songs workshop on Sunday. I know too litte about folk songs. This must change before Sunday.
I have three websites currently under construction, and another two that need regular maintenance.
I’m engaged in a big publicity drive for the band.
The sun’s shining, and I need to go walkies. When the snow’s melted.
However, I will make a firm resolution to drop in more and berate the Blog with fatuous comments.
Have fun!

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 06:07‘Ello, all! She’s baaaa-aaack! (Actually a more accurate statement would be ‘I’m back’, but whatever).
I was previously grounded because I went of Fanfiction.net, got nailed by a popup, and almost fried my dad’s computer before he could, uh…counterprogram.
I FINISHED MY MEGILLAH!!!!!
I have been practicing reading the Purim story (yes, in Ancient Hebrew) which is read every Purim. I’m going to be leining (singing a section of Talmud in a certain way) for Purim in front of a women’s gathering. Yes, women are allowed to lein. Just not during prayer. I actually checked my sources very carefully about this issue and found out that a very small minority of Rabbis actually forbade women leining, the rest said that as long as you don’t sing love songs or preform for the purpose of showing off your voice (plays and musicals are okay) a woman can sing as long as she wants. There are a lot more intricacies, but I don’t have time right now. The point is, I memorized an entire chapter, and now I get to read it in public! Yaaaaay!!!

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 07:40I have no skool either! HA HA HA HA!
i have a Creative Zen too and I just use the program thing that came with it and it works fine. careful if you have the Micro though because I have a couple of friends who dropped theirs and they broke and now they have sworn revenge on the Creative company. so dont drop it.
hey, I love Wicked! I want to go see it on stage soooooooo bad because the soundtrack rocks!

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 09:37I finally figured out how to use the Zen. My brother explained to me that that was what the “sync” button on Window’s Media player was for. I should’ve figured it out myself, but I’m hopelessly clueless about electronics.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 09:38Sometimes I wish that I was extremely filthy rich, and could have an iPod and great clothes and fun vacations and a huge house. Then I berate myself for not being happy with what I have. Then I say, heck, no one can tell what I’m thinking, so I can be as greedy as I want in my head. Then I feel guilty anyway and give up.
Heh…just talking to myself there.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 10:09My Zen only cost $220. I had to pay for it with my own money. My parents would’ve never dreamed of getting something like that for me. I’ve been saving for several years, birthdays, Christmasses, etc. All I get for a gift is money, so I have a good bit of it.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 12:00thankie, mera. im so sorry about the delay in simmaking. i’m in the middle of a series of power struggles with my parents. and i have the OM competition coming up on saturday. and i got sick yesterday, hence me being home from skool. plus i have developed a recent tendency to get depressed, and hole myself up in my room, which has not helped in motivating my parents to give me infinite time to play sims.
for those of you who have no idea what OM is, dig up your rube goldberg muse, and find the article about the collage students who were constructing the rube goldberg machines. Odyessy of the Mind is sort of like that, except more in depth, and complecated. and if you win you go on to the states competition, and then the worlds competition.
whenever im in a siuation where peoples say “…and you can’t bring electronics of any kind…” i always say “but i cant live without my ipod!”. incidentally, i don’t have an ipod.
hello paul baker, dlod, phoenix. it’s so nice to see some old faces! well, not actually faces, but you know what i mean.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 12:53No reason. Just that I was looking you up in the Northern Virginia phonebook. There are four people living in Northern VA named Coontz; Raymond Coontz, Robert and Patricia Coontz, and Robert J. Coontz. I was thinking of calling you up and saying “I know where you live! Mwa ha ha ha ha!”. Unless you don’t live in Northern VA. I would think you would though, because of the shorter commute. Phonebooks are even harder to use than dictionaries.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 15:12god… my head is tired. why do i always get sick at the most inconvinent times?
e-amil adresses… go to wwwdotsuperpagesdotcom and click on people pages and fill out the form and click search and then click on the option for finding out the person’s e-mail, except it only works if you are a member. that probably wasn’t very helpful.
i know. its just that we’ve had so may newbies, so its nice to see some people who have been here for a while.

Kricket, call RR. If his parents answer-“Hi, this is Kricket. Can I talk to RR?”
Parent: “Yeah, one sec.”/”No, he’s not here right now, can I take a message?” etc. Don’t worry, Kricket baby.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 18:51I posted this on the original topic in August, but I know no one will ever witness my brilliance there so I’m re-posting it here.
You know you’re addicted to reading when:
You walk around reading a book whenever possible and never trip. Even on stairs.
You spend more daily time reading than sleeping.
You don’t want the latest tech accessory for your birthday. You want more books.
You have exhausted the book supply in your house and in several local libraries.
You scream whenever you see someone reading a book with the cover folded back around it.
You keep your Muse magazines in a special drawer in your desk. A locked drawer.
You have no idea what just happened on Lost or One Tree Hill, but you can give a detailed summary of four out of five books anyone can name.
Sadly, I fit most of these categories.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 19:31I’m leining on Purim at the JCC at 9:30 AM, or possibly 8:15 AM. I don’t know yet.
I won the HG2tG game! It was hard, and I had to cheat twice (once to not crash the boat, and once to find Marvin’s tools) but otherwise I wasn’t assisted.
Dragon, I TOTALLY agree with your name.
I think soon I shall aquire an Mp3 player, if my parents are very nice.
Got into a car accident today! It was snowy and slushy where I live today, and we were driving down a hill on the way to school. The car 3 cars in front of us made a sharp left, the car behind him stopped short, the car in front of us stopped short, and we stopped short, but it was slippery and our car slid. Luckily we weren’t going fast enough for the airbag to deploy, or I would have a broken nose besides a nasty bruise on my shoulder. However, although the car we hit was barely scratched, the front of our car got shmooshed. The car we hit turned out to be one of my dad’s students. Go figure. It was sort of funny, though.

in March 2nd, 2006 @ 19:48alright, this is my skool story for today.
so yesterday i got this note that said we had to go “careercruising” online today during ap lang, + that 9&10 news was going to be filming us! whoa, i freaked out.
i didnt need to freak out. we went to the comp lab this morning, + the news reporters were there, but they only interviewed this one guy (literally the “big shot” of the entire class of 07-ah, coincidence) + they didnt film the rest of my class. the thingie is going to be on the 6:00 news on monday. hey, you know what? i wont be seen in this thingie, but i might be heard, see, the careercruiser “matchmaker” is incredibly innacurate, so i took the matchmaker test + got … it was either “taxidermist” or “gunsmith” as one of my career suggestions, + when my friend + i saw this, i started laughing insanely, thinking “what an incredible waste of time this turned out to be!” it was a very loud, very insane laugh. yes, ill be the first taxidermist/ gunsmith/ vegitarian/ animal rights activist. sure. w00t for careercruiser.

in March 3rd, 2006 @ 05:54Sphinx, I just read your story on fanfiction.net. IT. WAS. AMAZING. Great charecters (yes, I know they’re real), great motivations, great everything! Just two small problems. One, the whole find-the-brother thing is kind of cliched. And knowing your brother personaly (I still have some butter in my hair), I don’t think you would WANT to find him.
second problem: YOU NAMED ME (here I assume it was me) ANNA?!?! What kind of of name is that for me? Okay, I’m just making a fuss. The story was awesome! Even if you put my siblings in there so I couldn’t leave, which was evil! Because you knew perfectly well I wouldn’t betray my family, even in a story, so I’m STUCK there.
Well, not entirely true. You said you guys were turning seventeen. So I would be turning eighteen. In four months I get to have my own place, bring my sibs with me. So there.
Seriously, I loved the story. You are a great writer, you have majorly improved from your already-good style at the beginning of the year. Keep it up!

in March 3rd, 2006 @ 06:06And I bet you know why I’m not posting a review? Good. By the way…
Name: Haley Edriger
Nickname and reason behind nickname: Carp– she is one of the most amazing swimmers you have ever seen.
Age: 17
Gender: female
Appearance: medium height, thinnish and flattish, with long limbs and strong arms. She is a bit clumsy out of the water, but she makes up for it swimming. She has shoulder-length hair about the color of maplewood if you set it on fire for a short while, and hazel eyes. Her hair is almost ALWAYS messed up.
Personality: Carp is direct and straightforward, blunt and expects everyone else to be. As a result she insults almost everyone. She loves jokes but rarely tells them, and she is inclined to distrust people she doesn’t know.
History: She used to live with her father in Michigan, by Lake Huron (which is where she learned to swim). Her father’s small business went broke and they moved down to NYC to make a life. She works as a Newsie in Brooklyn, but goes home to sleep. She and her father love each other very much.
Other: Carp has a crush on her gangmate, Pine. This is one thing, though, that she isn’t very blunt about, and in fact she has never mentioned it at all.
As for clothes, she usualy wears a faded red shirt which she almost never takes off. It gets plenty of washing, though. If you want to know why red, look up which light travels farthest under water…How’s that?

We don’t take career tests at school. No one ever understands a word I say, so the whole school is just one big joojooflop. Still, I get to bring in my Paul Simon “Graceland” CD and play it during Social Sh…studies, and that should be mod frood. Even though Simon plagiarized a Los Lobos song for “All Around the World”.
Still, you can’t have everything. Q.E.D.

in March 3rd, 2006 @ 13:43Thanks so much for the review, Pheonix! Thank you so much for all the compliments!
And don’t worry, Anna isn’t done in this story. You’ll see more of her, I promise. And I called her Anna just to spite you. :p
Don’t worry, if the find-the-deserting-brother thing seems cliched right now, it won’t be soon. Trust me, it won’t follow any cliches. I hate ’em, and I’d never let one in to this story. I love it too much.
I can use Carp? Thanks! That’s the best charcater I’ve gotten so far! I hope I can live up to your writing.
I should probably post the story in Writing by now, shouldn’t I?

in March 3rd, 2006 @ 15:46I refuse to contribute any characters. You wouldn’t want them anyway, I can’t write creatively to save my life. Which is good, as having to write to save my life is an unusually remote contingency. Maybe it’s just supposed to be an idiom.
I’m all right at the moment, just a little depressed.
OK, a lot depressed. I can see you going straight to the next post. *weeps into virtual handkerchief*

Some rather intelligent person *cough* ordered the wrong test for us freshies, but fortunately for us, it’s not required, just something to keep us busy while the sophomores take the OGT. SO IT GOT CANCELED! Which means i don’t have to go in to skool until 12 all next week!!!!!! YESSSSS!!!!! The sophomores are all really mad, and we’re walking around laughing our heads off in a slightly maniacal way. YES YES YES! I GET TO SLEEP IN!!!!!!!!!!

in March 3rd, 2006 @ 16:35Yeah. I already wrote Carp’s description. Pine is tallish and quite slim for a boy, but as good a fighter as the next man. He’s self-confident, a natural born leader (at least by his own description) and seems to get along with everyone. He has a very good opinion of himself. He is cockey and determined, and always seems to be laughing at you. He has dark brown hair and striking green eyes. He has a talent for annoying people.
Photo is short, dark skinned, and grumpy. He is very pessimistic, but somehow everyone seems to like him. Unity is his younger sister, and his favorite thing to do is make fun of her. However, if you try to hurt her, be prepared to be flat on your back with Photo strangling you. He has a VERY short temper and no patience whatsoever.

in March 4th, 2006 @ 09:26Good news, everyone! I used to have a weblog, where every so often I would make posts and discuss things. Sadly, it switched owners some time last August, about the time this thing came up. I was unable to get in, make articles, or anything of the sort.
Yesterday I was reminded by a buddy of mine about it, so I decided to visit it. I read my old material, which was really quite funny. Just for fun, at the top of the page I saw a thing that said “Log in,” which had not been there previously. I clicked on it, entered my username and password, and behold! I was in! So now my magnificent blog is up and running again.

in March 4th, 2006 @ 10:10Yay! I can get on again! My brother has been playing some shoot ’em up thing every waking hour the past few days, so that’s why I wasn’t here. Fortunately, he isn’t really up until about noon on Saturdays. I saw Numb3ers! That was one of the best episodes yet. But what exactly is Charlie’s relationship with the FBI? I mean, do they pay him or what? And of course Larry just drops by to chat about confidential cases whenever the mood takes him. So it’s a bit unrealistic, but oh well. Welcome back, Mr. Baker!

in March 4th, 2006 @ 10:58I’ve decided to go on the mission trip, by the way. People from last month will know what I’m talking about. It’s to New Orleans. Now, to raise $600. Oh boy. I hope my aunts are gentlemen. And if my dad goes, thats $1200. Say hello to PB&J every meal of the day. Actually, we’ll be doing some group fund-raising too. But somebody had better have smarter ideas for fund raising than they did for the one my brother went on. Some unidentified person had the bright idea of putting decorative flamingos in people’s yards and then making them pay to have them removed. Very thankfully, it was never done. Not only would that be annoying and totally obnoxious, but it would give a rather bad name to the church. Hello, we’re St. ********! We put ugly lawn ornaments in your yard for free! (until you don’t want them any more.)

in March 4th, 2006 @ 11:53*continues from post in muse movie thread*
right, so a while ago (@ my skool) you had to have all these certain things about yourself to be “emo” (these things are so trivial, but i always notice them), then it changed so that if you were wearing any sort of black shirt, it would qualify you. now, if someone merely has 1/2 their bangs hanging in their face, someone else will walk by them + be like ” out of my way emo kid!”
but heres the flip side, which kind of amuses me
on any given day last year, thered be a few “emo” kids hanging around in the hallway between C + F buildings, and a few B’s + K’s would walk by + be like “oh, haha, look @ the emo kids.”
this year, the same ppl are like “oh haha, look @ the emo ppl!- [sees that there are 10 more behind them] uh…i mean…”+ now the [barbies, kens, plastic ppl, preps, choose your word] cant even say that anymore b/c for some reason we are everywhere. mrahr.

in March 4th, 2006 @ 19:16131: Where did that come from? I haven’t taken the test yet. I started the race test, but then I had to quit. Even the picture matching was hard! They were all gray and you had to judge by they’re noses! Being someone who is not in the habit of looking people in the nose, that was difficult. Sure, Charlie has a connection to the FBI, but where does his income come from? The FBI stiffs him. He is supposedly a consultant, but the only consulting he ever does is for the FBI who, as mentioned earlier, are a bunch of tight-wads. So where does his fortune come from? He bought his fathers house, so he must be pretty rich. He also is appearantly a professor or something at the college, but you never see him teaching either. He spends days on end scribbling pis and such on chalkboards without any students getting in the way. How’s my sim doing, by the way?

Well, one of my friends told me that she was going to be coming to my mall (she lives about 45 minutes from me), so I could meet her, and spend the night. So we did it. I watched “Signs”. I stayed up way too late. We dressed up goth. We attempted to make a movie, but the camera died. Yep, sleep over.

in March 4th, 2006 @ 23:05Hello to anybody who’s reading this. I am an avid reader and devoted fan of MUSE® Magazine. I am dark, lonely, and depressed. My mom hates me AND my dad, my sister has emotional issues, and I’m stuck at home every day with my six-year-old brother. If there are any others like me, please respond, at this time I really need a friend.
With a lonely sigh,
BlackRavenPostScript.: I’m also a big fan of dark poetry, particularly Edgar Allen Poe (my all-time favorite poem is “The Raven”). If there are any poets out there, I’d love to talk!

as i lean into the cold, dark water
ready to immerse
my pained, aching face
into the black liquid
i stop–
pull away,
breathei see my reflection staring up at me
with a tiny glow in the crooked smile
that’s false on my face
but real, here in the waterand then i smile
standing
gathering my things
realizations taking a toll
for though i am lonely
my reflection and i
we are destined to live-from the Poetry of BlackRaven

in March 4th, 2006 @ 23:45Thank you, Axa! I feel sorry for Edgar Allen Poe. His life was terrible. I think the only way to describe him is a tortured soul. And about your poetry – you should combine the bits and pieces into a very random poem. I tried it once, and it came out really nicely. It’s like a found poem off your notebook. And thanks for noticing my comment!

in March 5th, 2006 @ 01:48I like your poem BlackRaven! Especially the bit about the smile being false on your face but real in the water. I like what your poem says. Sometimes I avoid dark poetry (well not Edgar Allen Poes, I like his) because i find it too…. I dont know, self indulgent, I guess you could say, but I think yours was really good. It was hopefull, even though it was sad.
Poetry is great! Post some more.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 07:31Welcome, BlackRaven! That’s really good! I love Poe’s work. He was amazing. I agree, though, his life was horrible.
Well, I guess, since you shared one of your poems, I’ll share one of mine. It’s still dark poetry, but not as dark as yours, I don’t think, and a different feel. It’s rhyming, which helps.
Lost At Sea
All alone on a deserted island
Lost at sea
Why is no one ever
There for me?By myself, all alone, no one
Reaching out
Thought someone’d help but now
I’ve fallen into doubtDrowning in a river
Of my tears
There’s no getting away
From my fearsWhen will this torture
Finally be done?
When will this war
Finally be won?It can’t go on like this
Can’t end this way
But I don’t have the strength
To live another dayI can’t take it, can’t
Do it anymore
There has to be another way out
Some other door.No one to hear me
When I call.
No one to help me
When I fall.No one else here
It’s just me.
On a deserted island
Lost at sea.Eh, not so good, but it’s one of my earlier works.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 08:17I like poetry (that was really good, by the way), but now poetry is being butchered. Just like how modern “art” is now any random images thrown together, modern “poetry” is just random words. Once, I wrote a modern poem. I asked my little brother to throw out big words, and then I connected them with conjunctions. It turned out a lot like some modern “poems” I have seen.

Ya know, in Luna Lovegood’s defense, I think she is really smart, but people don’t thinkd so cause she acts differently than everyone. But look what she does in the 5th book, in the last part. (i wont actually say just in case someone here hasn’t read the book). She has to be smart to do that.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 10:07BlackRaven, have you ever heard of a guy named Edward Gorey? He was a writer, a poet and an artist. A lot of his stuff is really random, if not entirley nonsensical. He wrote short litte books with only one or two sentances on each page and a big picture to illustrate. I don’t cal them story books because a lot of time they make no sense or are really dark. Some times tho books are one long poem. It can be really funny, or really sad. He also wrote lymerics (is that how you spell it?) and books made of nothing but pictures.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 11:21Tom Lehrer is AWESOME. How can you not know and love him and all his satirical, cynical glory?!?! Easily?!?!
I thought Tom Lehrer was dead. Do you think he’d read or respond to a letter from one of us? He was 68 in 1996, I find from an Internet search, and apparently Wikipedia says he’s alive. Ye gods, he must be in his eighties by now. In the 1980s he produced the London stage musical Tomfoolery, and I don’t think he’s done much since. Oh, it mentions a camp where he goes to sing songs occasionally-Androsscoggin, in Maine.

Once, when we were going to Manhatten, my Mom put on a Tom Lehere CD for us to listen to. It had one of my favorite songs, Poisening PIgeons in the Park. Later, we were crossing through a smalll park and we saw a sign that said “Please do not feed the pigeons”

Can’t Believe
I look out the window but I don’t see the view
I’m too busy just thinking of you
I close my eyes but I can still see
The image of you, how you used to beYou’re always at the front of my mind
I think of you, and I need to find
That face that’s always in my head
I replay over what you saidI love you, words so strong
And I just can’t believe that you are gone
I need you, words so dear
And I just can’t believe that you’re not hereTime goes by, but I don’t know
To me everything goes too slow
Seasons pass, but I don’t care
Because I look around, and you’re not thereHow could you go, how could you leave
And even worse, you had to theive
You stole my heart and went away
But I won’t forget what you used to sayI love you, words so strong
And I just can’t believe that you are gone
I need you, words so dear
And I just can’t believe that you’re not hereYou’re not here…….

And emogrl, thanks for the compliment! You are so right, by the way. Music goes really well with dark poetry, and some people have made songs out of it.
Also, Sphynx, I think your poem was AMAZING. It reminded me of a swirling riptide at suset, when the seven-sided moon falls past a winded ridge…oh man…another poem coming on here. Anyway, it was great!
Thank you everyone for being so accomodating on my first visit here. I really didn’t think anyone would notice me.

and so we look out into the distance
waiting for the sweet melody
to rush inside
as it did a hundred years before
quiet and calm
yet filling your heart with energybut the melody never comes
Sorry if it doesn’t make much sense, but dark poetry rarely does. The theme here is expectancies can’t always be fulfilled.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 16:31i write very strange stream of conscience poems/ potential song lyrics. heres a sort of sappy one i wrote the other day:
beyond “love”
why kiss its pointless why hold hands it just makes it harder to walk down this road why just “be together” what is the reason why is it OK? why call + have nothing to say why go nowhere together its just wasting a day why buy the roses they dont help me at all only glamorous until all the waters gone- then theyre invisible + i wonder, would it be the same for me?
…why love just to love kiss just to kiss hold on to each other because theyres nothing else to do? if life is this way, why cant we just “not + say we did?” the world has a thin skin + were only a hollow bone inside it…
i wonder why youre never there when i call when i fall i wonder why you never want to go anywhere lend me a hand unless they all want to it wouldnt hurt you to ease my pain it wont seep into you…
make a prick just use a pin i want to make sure theres blood flowing underneath the skin. dont you even care? youre nothing yet youre there so look under my mask its old + fading youll see the pain its been shading my pleas for unmentionable reality strike true. it wouldnt hurt you to help me but ive been hurting so much helping you…
…why love just to love kiss just to kiss hold on to each other because theres nothing else to do? of life is this way why cant we just “not + say we did?” the world has a thin skin + were only a hollow bone inside it…

in March 5th, 2006 @ 17:08I have written some poetry, but most of it is sentimental joojoofloop. Here’s one of my works anyway.
Lallie
How do I feel so alone, when there are other people in the house?
The cranberries are red like blood, sweet like blood, sharp like blood. But blood comes from pain.
Where is the pain?
It is a paper shape given to me by a little girl who does not know me, who I do not know.
But she chose me to love me, and I do love her.
I am orange and I drift down the dark stairs in the empty house in night.
Am I a specter?
Am I an angel?
I lie down and fall into the sky while the snowflakes cover me. A lovely blanket.
Will someone catch me?
No.
I fall back in time, slowly stretching back the memories.
I’m dreaming now.
How else could I have wings?I was suddenly inspired to write this at about 10 p.m., and had to sneak down to the computer to type it quickly. I think strangely at night.

I am a king

A king of happiness
a king to the tallA king who sits
with everyone else,
who does not gloat
and sits,
and sit
with everyone else.I’m not really a king, for all you gullable folk. But am I related to King George the III? You’ll just have to speculate.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 18:22Heya, all! Poetry, eh? I think I’ll try my hand…
Weeds, dry and dead in the sun
Grey, like the skeleton of what once was
And never again will be
Rustling in the heavy breeze.A blackbird, drab as its resting place
Startled, pokes up its head
Adding death-colored life
To death-colored death.The creature, startled at our footsteps
And our bright clothes, full of warmth, our faces
Flushed with running,
Squawks, angry with these gaudy strangers.Spreads his wings. Now
We ourselves are outshone
By the bright red feathers, before hidden
But now showing, uncovered
In flight.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 19:24Wow I only started blogging here yesterday but this is so cool! It’s nice to read everbody’s poetry and stuff, it’s all really good. Maybe I should try some poetry… I haven’t ever written very much, outside of school assingments.
Black Raven- Thats’s so cool that you know Edward Gorey! I really like “The Object Lesson” by him, and also “The Doubtful Guest”. You might already know this but you can by collections of his work instead of just the single books. Thay are called Amphigorey, Amphigorey Too, Amphigorey Also, etc. I have a phobia of spending money, so I like these.

in March 5th, 2006 @ 19:44I know my poem’s random. I don’t think in straight lines all the time. Once, some time late at night, I thought I was two people. Another time, right after I woke up in the morning, I mused to myself that I had been sleeping in circles. Just a little taste of my perception of the world.
I will compose a lame, rhyming poem right now.
Let me sleep.
Plague my mind not with sheep.
But I’m not tired.
All the chocolate has got me wired.
I keep jumping around.
On my radio I turn low the sound.
I want to rest.
Sleep is best.
When tomorrow there’s a quiz.
You really need a zizz.Hrmph.

Sphinx
in March 5th, 2006 @ 20:54Okay, I wrote this poem like an hour ago. It’s a lame prose, but whatever. Tell me what you think.
Endless
Trapped in here, no way to get out
I don’t know what to do
I scream until I can’t anymore
But nobody’s listening
Nobody cares
About me.Where is everyone?
So cold, so all alone
A pale, empty moon stares down
Nobody up there
Nobody down here
With me.I am frozen
Like my bleeding heart
I huddle up and go down
Trying to keep warm
But the ground is cold
Like me.When there’s nowhere to go
Where do you go?
You have to go somewhere
Because life goes on
Doesn’t it?
Not me.I’m stuck here
And there’s no getting out
No light at the end
Of the tunnel
Because there is no end
For me.

Trillian of Rhodes
in March 5th, 2006 @ 21:13There are stars in the sky above the city
but no one takes notice of them
the sky is clogged
with smoke and structure
with voices and movements
with noise and lightThey shine out there,
alone and apart
but, being ignored
they shrink into inky blackness,
the safety of solitude
the quiet of nightWhen I first wrote this poem, a long time ago, it was only one star, and it was just one verse of a longer poem. This time I felt compelled to make it multiple stars, I’m not sure why. Its the first poem Ive tried in a long time, but I was inspired by every one else here.

Okay, who wants to know something EVIL??? My math teacher flushes everyone’s work down the toilet and then claims it to be missing. I have just recieved a progress report for the first time and, even though I get 100s on my test and do all my homework, I have a C. This lady loses everyone’s work — when I get a lawyer, I’m going to file suit against her.

Queen Julietaini or Queenie (J), and Alternate Selves Rhonda, Stig, and Ikol
in March 6th, 2006 @ 18:05And the Oscars, 2006. Let the lampooning begin!
Jon Stewart really was the last syllable of his name. You know? We poked fun at Tom Cruise and Brooke Shields. We’ve insulted everyone that needed an insult. And then we make bad jokes about them. More bad jokes. What? Excuse me? “In The Deep” should have been ‘In The Wastebasket’. The penguin people were very, very French. And very, very cute. Atman didn’t get an Oscar yet? Excuse me? What?!?! Who-wh-wh? Oh well, the mistake is over now and it’s all good. Meryl Streep struck back with Lily Tamlin, which was pretty funny, but were we surprised at little, bland, blonde, white-bread-loaf Reese Witherspoon winning? NO! Not in the least! She’s as pure as the driven snow. The driven-over snow, that is. With edelweiss littered around it like Jon Stewart’s pokes littered through the ceremony. Jake Gyllenhaal was-well-short next to Will Ferrell, who looked slightly lost throughout the thing, like he just stumbled in from a biker convention.

in March 6th, 2006 @ 18:29emogrl- well, I was paritially going for an environmental thing in the poem, because it does always make sad to see the skies all dirty and the stars blocked out (though its not so bad where i live). but i was also going for a metaphorical thing too, though i guess its sort of hard to see it.
I just saw GoF in the theatres for the second time yesterday, cause I went to one of the cheap cinemas that plays movies that have been out for a while. I love it! And now I can buy it!
unfortunately, I missed the oscars (though I caught up by checking the news on Wikipedia).

in March 7th, 2006 @ 17:13280 – Yeah… I’m not sure “fashion-challanged” is the right term. Try a stronger adjective (But I do agree)
277 – SNAPES NOT EVIL!!!!! Although there is evidence against… like when in book 4 voldemort was going thru the list of death eaters who returned and he dismissed one for being an “agent at hogwarts” Crouch or Snape? Barty never had the tatoo, didn’t he? It wasn’t on him in the movie… But there is evidence for snape.
For example, in the first book dumbledore says “death is but the next great adventure” but when he’s about to die he says “please… severus.” Could this mean that he was convincing him to kill him and continue with a secret plan they had??? Because Voldemort thinking Dumbledore dead could be his ultimite demise! THAT’S GONNA BE HOW BOOK 7 ENDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The main reason it was horrible was that it was based on something completely (insert derogative comment here) and I still feel like Milton Rupinees.

I agree with 286, exept I think Dumbledore is really dead. But Snapes not evil.
I just did tally on all my old muses, in an attempt to avoid math HW. Final count: 56. Now my next project is to read every single one starting from 1997 back to front. I have found the perfect procrastination activity!

in March 7th, 2006 @ 18:53I’m not saying it wasn’t a good article, I am just saying that I think an article emphasizing more on the Harry Potter side of things would be cool. Like a special effects article, like from LOTR. (although the special effects in the movies are blah). I’d also like to see which ultimate villan would win from both universes (voldemort for example). And the dragon article was sweet, but the majority of the LOTR issue WAS about LOTR (otherwise it wouldn’t be the LOTR issue, would it)

in March 7th, 2006 @ 19:27Seriously, the editors have talked about a Harry Potter article or issue ever since H.P. & the Philosopher’s/Sorcerer’s Stone, but it’s hard to think of anything new to say. The story of the real Nicholas Flamel? Veela legends? The plagiarism controversies? I’m sure fansites have covered it all already. And you can bet JKR isn’t going to tell us any secrets.

in March 7th, 2006 @ 19:49You know i’m going 2 be hated for this but: SNAPE IS SO TOTALLY EVIL!!!!!! Evil people have all the fun. In response to someone or other- No. Not only crazy people read Muse. I bet there are a lot of people out there like me, who aren’t really completely insane but are just going along with the crowd.

in March 7th, 2006 @ 19:51Eragon would so totally win ’cause he has all these cool fire powers and such.. All Harry has is a stupid wand. BUT Harry is still better than Eragon.
Eragon is so totally copied form Lord of the Rings!

‘Twasn’t the math page–that was about fisheye lenses.
That reminds me: I’d better bring the Back Issues section of the Fan Page up to date soon.
Also, now that this topic has accumulated more than 300 comments, some people will have trouble loading it. Time to start a new one…
