Hi all! Part 3? Cool. School is bleh. I have ots of meth home work… And now for your monthly song! And this month iiiiiiiiiis……*picks random song* Double, double!
Double, double, toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Something wicked this way comes.
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg and howlet’s wing.
Double, double, toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Something wicked this way comes.
In the cauldron boil and bake,
Fillet of a fenny snake,
Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches’ mummy, maw and gulf.
Double, double, double, double toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Double, double, double, double toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Hello, me is amy.
Skool is skool. What else is there to say? I hate it, because I screw up. Not grade-wise. I get good grades. But Im horrible a talking to people. Im irritating sometimes. I dont mean to be, but I just accidently say stuff or do stuff and I hate it. I no one at school is very interesting. And a lot of them are really self- absorbed. And I hurt those who arent by being opinionated.
Sorry. Bad day.

#24, it’s ‘owlet’s wing’ not ‘howlet’s wing’. Of course, that could have just been a typo. Sorry, since it’s in Harry Potter, I’m picky about it being right. Even if it was only in the movies.

34, yes, something like that.
Today would have been my dog’s tenth birthday if she hadn’t died on November 20. On the ninteenth she failed in one of her porch escape tricks while we were at the horrible goblet of fire movie. (Yes, that is one of the reasons I don’t like that movie.) She was hanging upside down by her hips for who knows how long. We brought her to the vet, but she didn’t make it through the night. Anyway, this would’ve been her tenth birthday today. She was like a little sister to me. I miss her. I cried myself to sleep last night. What I find interesting is that I had a cold in Nov. when she died, and I have a cold today. Right, anyway. We don’t know the exact date she was born, just that it was mid-April and we chose today, the 12th, to celebrate. I miss her.

Queenie J.,
From my husband’s book of Bob Dylan lyrics in German:
Wie findest du das? So vollkommen allein. So anonym zu sein. Wie ein rollender Stein?
I’d better not continue, as that would be being a little too much help on the ol’ homework,
What does it mean to keep the syllabic order?

Queenie J, that’s a crazy freakin assignment. What class is if for exactly? I guess it would be German class, but yeesh. That’s pretty hard core, frood.

Queen J. that’s the weirdest assignment I’ve ever heard of. Oh, except this thing my brother had to do, which was to go the library with this piece of paper and get all the library ladies to sign it. Then he had to check out a book, any book. It still sounds more enjoyable than translating Bob Dylan into German, though. *shudder* I’m not the biggest Bob Dylan fan. That song in particular is just too… I don’t know, whiny. Michelle, I feel for you. My dog is like my best friend and since I’m home skooled, he’s with me pretty much all day. To any idiot who says dogs aren’t beneficial, I say go suck an egg. Or soak your head. Or do some other weird thing that happens to be an idiom and doesn’t make much sense.

albino fawns are muy hermosa!
and i just found out that my school is on some program called “Ed-Line” and i can find my grades there. the 4th quarter just started. no grades yet.
can you believe that people in my school actually ask the teachers how many quarters there are? it is implied in the word, quarter. honestly! but i’m sure you’ve all found out that the school system is geared towards the, erm, slow kids. aargh.

Rosanne (39),
I’ll bet it means “preserve the meter so you can sing the German words to the original tune.”
I think that’s a GREAT assignment. Even better (for QJ, at least) would be translating Gilbert & Sullivan.

both my parents have DSL. I love their one commercial that had the song “Kick the motor into overdrive . . .” it had a catchy tune . . . which stayed stuck in my head forevahhhhhhh! I wish we got to do exciting things like translate songs into French in my class — we have a bunch of dumb kids who copy off my phrase de jour and don’t understand how I get a 101 percent. Sometimes it’s so boring I feel like crying, so I hit myself in the head with my free reader instead. It doesn’t really help the boredom, but it’s a good way to release tension.

79-That would be the point, yes. Unfortunately, the word “baby”, as in not an infant, has no German word, so it is staying there. “Oh ja!” always makes me crack up. At least it doesn’t have to rhyme.
I love Japanese rappers rapping in Japanese, and French parody rappers are always hilarious. They’re French, but they’re rapping. “YO! Nous avons mange du bon pain et bu du bon vin, yo! Ne sois pas un mauviette! Oh oui, l’enfant!” (We ate some good bread and drank some good wine, yo! Don’t be a wimp! Oh yeah, baby!) The Who in Spanish makes me hyperventilate. And Beatles songs suck in Spanish.

80: I totally feel for you. When the whole toe-smashed-by-table incident happened, we went to the doctor and they shot shots into my toes. I thought it would make me not feel anything, but no, I still felt little pricks, even though it didn’t hurt. Drove me crazy!

DID the pricks hurt? I hate it when your foot falls asleep, and then when you walk, it feels like your foot is 2000000000000000 pounds, and like it’s made of rubber.
I hate annoying people who htink they are better than everyone else, and brag about how they won the two foot race by .000000001 seconds at the track meet, and how they are going to enter into the olypics to do the long jump. ARG!

my mom and i went for a walk today. we were going to just go around on some streets but then we went through this development that had an aura — you know how places have a certain feeling you get whenever you think about them, well, i get that alot like in my old neighborhood we had an aura and now its gone which really bums me out because i love this house to death, unlike the olde one . . . — anyway, and then we cut through this field of wet clover because we were following the power lines, which go right next to my street, and it was raining so we were wet and the clover was wet and my jeans got really soaking, and then we crossed this little ravine where there was a stream and fifty million prickers and stuff. then we found this woodchip path that went by this REALLY PRETTY white house, well, it wasn’t that pretty really, but it had an auraX10 and we were trying not to be seen because there were No Trespassing signs everywhere, but then we cut through these cornfields and got back to our house. It totally rocked my world babyyyyyyyy ok done now . . . anyway, it was an adventure, probly the biggest one ill ever have . . . actually, if you count going on the Skyline Trail at Hawk Mountain, that was a bigger one. whatever. i’ll leave now.

Sorry I haven’t been around. The Chairman’s favorite color is blue. I’ve been maxing and relaxing on Spring Break after touring colleges. We saw Wittenburg (I don’t know how you spell that) and Miami. Reeeaaaally different from each other.
I was thinking about starting my own newspaper, called “The Weekly Gripe.” Have my friends do some columns, write articles about how the government has screwed up this week.
Speaking of the government, I was surprised at how many people didn’t know who J. Edgar Hoover was. They thought I was talking about Herbert Hoover. I think everyone should know who J. Edgar Hoover was. Just so they know what the epitome of a bad man in a high place is.

More like bowling on ice, I’d say. Instead of a ball, you use a special disk-shaped stone with a handle, and instead of knocking down pins, you try to slide the stone down the ice so that it comes to rest in the middle of a target. As it glides slowly along, other team members skate ahead and try to keep it on course (or change its course) by sweeping the ice in front of it with brooms.
Hey, I’ve seen curling! It looks sorta odd. The players wear strange slipcovers on the soles of their shoes so they can manouvre more easily on the ice.

SNB/LC (115),
Strunk and White’s great little book The Elements of Style explains it well. I don’t think it’s online, but everybody should have it. It takes half an hour to read and will change your life (yes, even more than the Shins).
The University of Chicago style manual’s online FAQs also tackles the subject of that/which, in a slightly wordier way.
As an editor, of course, I enjoy reading style manuals. Fans of British English should see what the British news magazine The Economist has to say about differences between British and American style.

112- J. Edgar Hoover? wasn’t he, like, the dictator of the FBI who almost became president?
117- i feel your pain. people are coming over my house for easter. two little kids. little kids freak me out.
does anyone know what one would do at an Indian [as in the India in Asia] sweet 16? i am going to one today @ 4:00. my friend says it’s almost the same as an american one, only there’s a lot of garba, which seems to be some kind of dance….
I was thinking, which is always a bad idea. It’s funny (funny-strange) how the link policy here is so different from that of the gaboomba- here links are discouraged while when we were using the gaboomba Robert would actually add them to our posts in case someone didn’t know what something was or something. It’s also funny-strange how in the gaboomba three weeks could go by without anyone posting while here if three hours go by without posts people get all “hey, where is everybody? Why aren’t my posts getting posted?”. Hence I don’t know who half of the people here are or what we’re talking about in most of the threads.
I learned to do a waltz jump yesterday. Yay.

Most of you live in America, and you’re young. You are very fortunate. You have been spared the phenomenon of Mr. Blobby, who appeared on British television about a decade and a half ago. He was eight feet tall, apparently made of foam rubber, and coloured pink with yellow spots, if memory serves. Whoever was inside him obviously couldn’t see anything. He wandered round various television programmes burbling “blobby blobby blobby” in a robotic voice, and bumping into things. He presented the most embarrassingly pointless spectacle to darken the annals of British televison in a very long time. By comparision, Barney the Purple Dinosaur is a paragon of erudition and gravitas.
I’m going to have to put the kettle on. The memory is too vivid.

SHE HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE IMPORTANCE OF THE FRAGMENT IN FIRST-PERSON WRITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, just had to get that out of my system.
something tells me that something as declasse as a cavefish shouldn’t have a blog with as classy a name as Dark Waters. i mean, i know it totally fits, but . . . just use your imaginations, people. it doesn’t fit. baaaad viiiiibes
my indian friend told me how to give myself an aura, but she says it’s really easy and i tried it and i still havent gotten it so i think she ‘s making it up. if you want to see if it works, you’re supposed to concentrate on the place between your eyes on the inside of your head your “third eye”

158 (LG)- But grammar’s so much fun, dahling. You really don’t want us to stop talking about it, now do you? Of course you don’t. Now that that’s all settled, whe can all obsessive-fangirl-ize about Eats, Shoots, and Leaves. Ah, the wondrous sound of the words ‘full stop.’ So much nicer than dingy little ‘period.’ Not that ‘period’ isn’t a perfectly fine word or anything, but ‘full stop’ is so much more round and beautiful.

I’m going to England this summer! Next weekend I’m having a partay! I’m learning to drive stick-shift! It’s really hard! I keep stalling out! There is no cohesion between those three subjects! Why am I ending all of these sentences with exclamation points! I’m going to stop and move on to something!
There is a book coming out that heralds the decay of society. It’s called “The Alphabet of Manliness,” and it’s by a man named George Ouzounian, more commonly known as Maddox the Pirate. He runs his own website, the most commonly visited website out there. I’m not going to post the url because most of his material is really offensive and inappropriate for most of the people on here.
Close, “sweet melpomene.” J. Edgar Hoover was the tyrannical head of the FBI for 68 years too long. (Yes, that’s how long he was head of the FBI.) Evil man! A horrible irony: he violated the civil rights of civil rights leaders. He did this in probably a lot of ways, but I’m only aware of his tapping Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X’s telephones.

My eldest sister drives stick. When she was first learning, it was really scary to drive with her. She kept stalling in the middle of intersections.

yeah….that was my slightly exaggerated interpretation of the character of j. edgar hoover. i do that…
my parentals wish to begin to instruct me in the driving process, but i didn’t think it wise. i can barely handle a shopping cart.
anyway, i just woke up and i am still hyper from the partay last night. i was there all night.
the food was excellent, though i had no idea what it was. very spicy for the most parte, but some of it was quite sweet.
the indian musick pwned. i seriously need to get some of it. all of it had an amazing beat and very flowy rythym. there were even dancing routines, which were brilliant! then everyone danced and i even managed the electric slide. [and, as usual, jumped and headbanged to “everytime” but that’s a long story…]. there was this really cool dance to the indian musick that involved hitting sticks together in two big lines, but i couldn’t get the “hang” of it.
and the womon had the most amazing outfits. positively flamablamablous! they were really bright, mostly had skirts and belly-shirts, and were heavily beaded so that they literally shone. they also had shawl-like-scarf things attached….and they wore henna tattoos.
in all, coolest partay in the history of all things celebrational.

Do you think I spend too much time on Slashdot? Well, there’s not that much else to do inside the CIC, and I don’t knit, but I’m working on translating Jimi Hendrix into-you guessed it-French. It just doesn’t work. Luckily, my other assignment, “Break On Through (To The Other Side)” by the Doors was ALREADY translated into French. Phew. Actually, Jim Morrison was big in France. La la la la la. Don’t help me on this one, I have several French-speakers tackling it.

I understand now why everyone on here was obsessing about it a while ago. So far, I’d say my favorite song is “Popular”. I really really really want to see it now. I’ve never seen The Wizard of Oz, though, because people predicted it would be too scary for me (I get scared really easily- I can’t even watch Disney movies without nightmares), so I probably couldn’t see this either.. meh. Oh man, and they can all sing so bloody high… I really should go analyse passages for English.. although if I don’t edit it my teacher will probably end up with “unadulterated loathing” in the midst of Pride&Prejudice analysis..

With a great big slap
And a kick from me to you,
Won’t you say you hate me too!
Or something like that.

We were in Juneau and Sitka Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, ’cause my sister’s in a youth symphony that travelled there.
We flew to Sitka on Friday. It’s really pretty there. The vegetation is quite a bit different than it is in the part of Alaska where I live. There’s hardly any deciduous trees in Sitka/Juneau and the conifers are a much lighter brighter green. Where I live we mostly have only black spruce, and they’re tall, but straggly looking. We wandered around town most of the afternoon, looking for somewhere to eat, and for our hotel, since we were dropped off at Totem Pole park, on the opposite side of town. The weather was surprisingly sunny. In both Juneau and Sitka, it usually rains almost constantly. However, all three days we were there, it was either sunny or cloudy with no rain.
On Saturday, we took a six hour boat ride on a catamaran from Sitka to Juneau. It was lots of fun. We saw an otter, a couple of humpback whales, and a couple of harbour porpoises. The coolest thing we saw, though, was a pod of at least 50 killer whales. It was so cool. They stopped the boat in the middle of the superpod (that’s what they’re apparently called when they’re that big. And superpods are apparently an extremely uncommon thing to see.) for about fifteen minutes or so. There was at least 50 swimming around the boat. Some of them were kinda far in the distance, and some where just a few yards from the boat. It was awesome!
That afternoon, we went on a short drive around Juneau, which if you don’t already know this is the capital of Alaska, and only the third largest city in AK. We drove by the capitol building, the governor’s mansion, and the government buildings.
Sunday afternoon we flew back home. Then we drove all over trying to find somewhere that was open so we could eat dinner, ’cause we didn’t just want to eat leftovers at home ’cause it was Easter. Finally we went to Fred Meyers and got fried chicken and jo-jos. We’d stopped at Carrs first, but they didn’t have any hot food. I s’pose ’cause it was Easter.
Oh, yeah. Friday and Saturday night. The youth symphony my sister’s in performed concerts.
It was lots of fun. ‘Specially seeing the humongous pod of whales!

y4hpb, I really hope your mom’s surgery goes well! I know what it’s like to have your mom go away for surgery. A couple or so years ago my mom had to have surgery on her back ’cause she has scoliosis, and when she was a teenager she had a rod put in, but it needed replaced ’cause it had got messed up. So she was gone for at least a couple weeks I think, to get a new rod put in and to have like most of her vertebrae fused.
It sucks not having your mom around. I wish your mom luck and hope her surgery is succesful, and that she’s gone as little time as possible! And that the time she’s gone passes quickly. Unfortunately, it will probably seem like an eternity to you. At least the day she’s having surgery probably will.
Anyways, I hope it goes good, and that she doesn’t have to have any other surgeries!

my dog is so bad-
ok so her i am blogging and i see the dog. she isnt allowed upstairs so i told her to go down. she did and while she did she took a spool of white thread that was on the floor. i then had to chase her around the house trying to get it back. i then got stuck under the dining room table becuz that was where the dog had been. i get unstuck. the dog goes back under the table. i manage to reach under and grab her coler. i pull her out and then i got the spool of thread back. the spool of thread is now thourougly chewed and a nasty color. it is now back upstairs so my mom can do whatever with it. then i get back on museblog. the dog starts to bark. thinking that the dog was barking at the cat, i went downstairs. the dog wasnt, just barking at the wall. she then did this thing where she conors me and then starts barking and biting at you. i managed to find a newspaper and treatened to spank her. now i am upstairs blogging.
the dogs name is Mayhem. (im not making this up!)

Okay, this is funny guys. I was doing my literature homework on “The Monkey’s Paw” and the last assignment was to write a story using the basic plot structure of “The Monkey’s Paw”. I was randomly inspired, and started writing. I got about halfway through when I saw the words “Create a plot structure only”
I think you might be interested in what I wrote. i did go slightly overboard.
Bobbie and Rosie were an old couple living in a little house in an anonymous patch of woods just outside of an anonymous town, in New Jersey, because New Jersey is so anonymous it is now famous for its anonymity. They were in hiding because a group of Musers, or fans of Muse Magazine, were in the habit of mobbing their house, screaming wildly, and demanding autographs, which is the kind of thing that generally only happens in overy-dramatic television and various peoples’ imagination, but nevertheless it was happening quite frequently nowadays to poor Bobbie and Rosie. The reason for all of this was their involvement in a fan page for such Musers, which had made them quite popular indeed.
One evening as Bobbie was sitting quietly at his computer and deleting links that might possibly be potentially dangerous to those innocent young minds, or what innocence was left in such minds, he noticed a particularly strange link that hadn’t been posted by any known posters. There was no name entered, and the email was invalid. It was probably just more spam. Angrily, he zapped the whole post, but not before opening a window to the link. What he saw surprised even old Bobbie, who had seen many strange websites in his day.
“Rosie,” he called, “come look at this!”
Rosie was sitting in the corner, and persisting in a lack of knitting or knitting-related activities, which, contrary to popular belief, was not unusual for a woman her age. Instead, she was working on the daily Sudoku, which was causing her considerable frustration and annoyance, so she was quite relived to comply with Bobbie’s request. Setting down her pencil, she walked over to where Bobbie was sitting and looked over his shoulder.
On the screen was, in bold capital letters, “CONGRADULATIONS, YOU HAVE BEEN GRANTED THREE WISHES!”
“Good grief,” said Rosie, “What a ridiculous advertisement. I can’t even see what they are selling!”
Suddenly, the screen went black.
“Darn,” muttered Bobbie, “Must’ve pulled the power cord again.” As he bent down to fumble with the tangle of cords and wires, lighting flickered across the screen. Startled, Rosie jumped back. Bobbie looked up at her sudden movement, and said, “What?” Then he noticed the computer screen, which was by now flickering dramatically. As he did, there was a rumble of thunder so loud that the old couple glanced out the window before realizing that the source of the sound was the computer. Red letters scrolled across the screen, “BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR…” and a text box appeared below them with a flashing cursor.
Bobbie hit the mouse button various times, fiddled with the keyboard, and turned the power on and off, but the still-flickering screen stayed unchanged. Both old people stared at the screen in bewilderment. The constant flickering was giving them headaches. The thunder rumbled again, this time louder.
Finally, “You could try typing something in the box,” Rosie suggested nervously.
Bobbie gave this some thought, and sat down in his swivel chair. He ran his hands over the keyboard, tapped a few keys, and quickly deleted the resulting letters. Then, summoning his courage, he typed “I wish the Musers would leave us alone” and clicked the button handily labeled, “Wish”
Both people held their breath as the computer processed the command. Then, as quickly as it had started, the lightening stopped, and the text box disappeared. Bobbie’s computer screen returned to the way it was before the startling occurrence, with the exception of the mysterious window.
righto. that’s it. and if you want to know what happens next, it’s nearly midnight for god’s sake. give me a break.

It was awesome. I went and saw a HUGE, old Buddha, and it was really cool.(Like 50 foot tall) In Tkyo, I went to the Imperial palace, and I heard this tortured screaming, so I turned to the guide, and he said “oh, they are–how do you say—just practicing” Either that or somebody pissed off the emperor.
We also went and saw a cliff that a 11 year old girl threw herself off:
She was returning from a pilgramage on Enoshima Island when a Monk saw her:
“Man, she’s pretty”
They fell in LUUUURVE, but soon, something happened and she decided thier luuuurve was in vain, and threw herself into a gorge. The monk, blinded by love, threw himself after her.
We can only assume that solved things.
And no, I have no Idea how old he was.

I don’t remember the traffic question. I think it must’ve whizzed right past me. What was it?
0
0
It was in Part Two, comment 264: why people change lanes so much, and whether it slows traffic down or speeds it up.
I’m sure traffic engineers have investigated that question, and I’d be happy to research it for the Q&A column. From my own experiences, I’d guess that people change lanes a lot more than necessary and that it doesn’t do them as much good as they think. Often I’ll see people weaving impatiently from lane to lane, trying to accumulate minute advantages by hopping ahead of other cars, and then I wind up right beside them at the next traffic light. (They don’t remember me, but I remember them. One thing about aggressive driving: it makes you memorable.)

Daaaaang I meant to say kanji. -can’t spell-
I suppose it is a bit like everyone. xD But Japanese are like that somewhat, out of culture. The suicide rate is higher that the homicide rate. Sad, but true. Though that has a lot to do with the school system. But then again that goes back to the whole drive they have for everyting…hmm.

my mother is a crazy driver. she always tries to get away from the mass of cars, and it doesn’t seem to matter to her whether she has to speed up or slow down to do so.

I have a traffic related question. Why is it that cars have the driver’s seat opposite to the side of the road that one is supposed to drive on? If the seat were on the same side as the lane that the car was to be driven in, you wouldn’t have to block traffic when you wanted to drop something in the postbox. That was an, erm, interesting story, Em. Is the monkeys paw that one Poe story where the people wish for, like, fifty pounds or something and it kills somebody? Or something like that? Well actually, if it is a Poe story, it’s a safe bet that somebody dies, so I guess what I should be asking is: is it a Poe story?
I hate changing lanes. I try to stay in one lane as much as possible. Namely, the right hand lane, ’cause that’s where the slow people are, and every body in the left hand lane is always going 5 to 10 miles over the speed limit, and I go either the speed limit or 5 miles under.
By the way, here in Alaska, you can get your learners permit at age 14, and your driver’s license at age 16. I’m sixteen, and I’ve got to get my license soon, ’cause my permit expires in a couple weeks, and I still haven’t practised parallel parking. That is to say, my parents want me to get my license. Technically, I could get another permit, and then have two more years to practise parallel parking before I get my license…
Well, anyway, I need to take a practise AP Calc test, to find out that I’ve forgotten all of the Calc I learned, and that I will likely get a 1 on the test. (5 is the best you can get.)

Are they still teaching “The Monkey’s Paw”? They made us read it when I was in school, and even then I thought it was a lot of old rubbish. (Please excuse the uncharacteristic display of heated opinion on the part of your GAPA.) At least I hope they’ve had the sense to retire “The Most Dangerous Game” and “The Lady or the Tiger?” I suppose “The Pit and the Pendulum” is sacrosanct…

I saw “The Monekys Paw” as a play on a school feidsl trip. I read “The lady or the tiger’ on my own.

they did a bunch of plays at GMU that we saw, including the monkeys paw, the open window, and the lady or the tiger. i don’t think the last one is in my lit text though. hold on-i’ll check.
no. but the tell-tale heart is in there.

Brilliant! A part 3!
Spam, thy name is Museblog.
But in unrelated matter -ahem- I’m stalling on writing a poem, hoo-ray.
Hoorah! My birthday is in 6 days!
What is the chairman’s favorite color?
BBQed Billygoats! Part 3!
Oy.-_-
It might be hard to get Phillis back again after the last 5-part…but we sure are making a good start hey? 3 parts! 3 I tell you! On the 12th! When does it all end? (Probably never, but it’s a standard question for the despairing and i thought i’d better put it in) *despairs*
Wow…..part three already…..wow
off to school!
Ha school!!!!! I am on spring break
lets see if we can get a part 6 now.
I am so confoosed.
SPAM!!! LUNCH MEAT!!!
More monthly randomness…
For the randomness part,Here goes!

grapefruits
html
squirels
penguins
Python
telephones
pointsetias
computer games involving penguins
flowerpots
lightbulbs
chocolate
dried cranberries
paper mache
all hail random!
yes, all hail random!! I can’t believe it!! I’m actually one of the first few posts!! Yay!!!
:!:: YEEEEEEEE! Our parents figured it out (finally,) and I now get to come over to Penty-chan’s house every Thursday and hog her computer. YEEEEE!
:?:: Haha. We have no school, for we are on break. All hail!
i ♥ random threads
its probably a good thing that half the musers arent active. but where ARE they?
am grounded today. snuck on. will be back tomorrow.
I had spring break in the beginning of March (It was still winter then!) But we do have a few days off this week because of Easter and Passover.
PART 3!?!?!?!?!
I might not be as active as I’d like to be. With skool, hebrew skool, mental healf work, group, friend betrayls, ect.
Hi all! Part 3? Cool. School is bleh.
I have ots of meth home work… 
And now for your monthly song! And this month iiiiiiiiiis……*picks random song* Double, double!
Double, double, toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Something wicked this way comes.
Eye of newt and toe of frog,
Wool of bat and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg and howlet’s wing.
Double, double, toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Double, double, toil and trouble
Something wicked this way comes.
In the cauldron boil and bake,
Fillet of a fenny snake,
Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf,
Witches’ mummy, maw and gulf.
Double, double, double, double toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Double, double, double, double toil and trouble
Fire burn and cauldron bubble
Something wicked this way comes.
Hehe.
Hi me wierd me cool
Isn’t that redundant?
lol
Hello MIA. Or should i just call u amy? Anyway. *pies amy/MIA* Congratulatory pie in the face for you.
oh yeah. welcome amy/ mia. to insanity and randomness.
I like cherry pies
lemon merangue?meringue? are yukky
Oh yes and which of u started a xanga site, joined my blogring and has not updated at all? Em, was that u? Or another one of you lovely fellow ko-konspirators? Either way, me be happy and u better update or i hunt you down. Whoever you are.
lol
I like meringue! And cherry! Pumpkin’s the best though. Apple’s good too. *throws menny pies at littlekali* Hey littlekali are u new? Velcome if u are!
Ebeth had pizza. Ebeth be happy. Even though Anthony’s got new owners and new pizza that tastes just like donato’s anyway. Ebeth thinks pizza is pizza and it’s all good. Except when it’s not.
Hello, me is amy.
Skool is skool. What else is there to say? I hate it, because I screw up. Not grade-wise. I get good grades. But Im horrible a talking to people. Im irritating sometimes. I dont mean to be, but I just accidently say stuff or do stuff and I hate it. I no one at school is very interesting. And a lot of them are really self- absorbed. And I hurt those who arent by being opinionated.
Sorry. Bad day.
#24, it’s ‘owlet’s wing’ not ‘howlet’s wing’. Of course, that could have just been a typo. Sorry, since it’s in Harry Potter, I’m picky about it being right. Even if it was only in the movies.
Yes, it is a typo. I mipselled it.
(yes, that one was intentional.)
Isn’t something like that in Shakespeare? Macbeth, maybe?
32-Actually it’s Macbeth, isn’t it?
34, yes, something like that.
Today would have been my dog’s tenth birthday if she hadn’t died on November 20. On the ninteenth she failed in one of her porch escape tricks while we were at the horrible goblet of fire movie. (Yes, that is one of the reasons I don’t like that movie.) She was hanging upside down by her hips for who knows how long. We brought her to the vet, but she didn’t make it through the night. Anyway, this would’ve been her tenth birthday today. She was like a little sister to me. I miss her. I cried myself to sleep last night. What I find interesting is that I had a cold in Nov. when she died, and I have a cold today. Right, anyway. We don’t know the exact date she was born, just that it was mid-April and we chose today, the 12th, to celebrate. I miss her.
Yes, Ebeth-sama, it is Macbeth. Thou art correct. Kudos.
I have to translate Bob Dylan’s “Like A Rolling Stone” into German, keeping the syllabic order. And man oh man, is it hard. Sheesh.
Yes, though the one I posted is the Harry Potter version. The other one from Macbeth is longer and more creepy….
Queenie J.,
From my husband’s book of Bob Dylan lyrics in German:
Wie findest du das? So vollkommen allein. So anonym zu sein. Wie ein rollender Stein?
I’d better not continue, as that would be being a little too much help on the ol’ homework,
What does it mean to keep the syllabic order?
Queenie J, that’s a crazy freakin assignment. What class is if for exactly? I guess it would be German class, but yeesh. That’s pretty hard core, frood.
I’m sorry, Michelle! That’s so sad. I have a dog that I really love too. I had to watch him get run over by a car once. It was horrible. But he didn’t die…
I’m sorry, Michelle…that must’ve been really sad
Whee, bob dylan!
I’m so sorry, Michelle
we have spring holiday break today, so I will be posting random things at different times of the day
post 42?
I couldnt get on museblog last nite. was there something wrong?
hullo peoples.
46- i couldn’t get on museblog last night either… what happened?
-47 see the problems problems problems thread. sry i dont know how to post links.
there was something i wanted to say but i forgot it
I couldn’t either…I just thought it was my slow computer
spring break. ungrounded. how flamablamablous.
anybody want to see a picture of an albino fawn? only one in more than 1 million are born. and this way i also won’t feel guilty about mailing it to everybody i know. not that i would, anyway.
i meant to say “…about not mailing…”
spring break is boring
spring break is fun
you have a long time
to get homework done!
(my things don’t usually rhyme, but I wanted it to sound kind of cheesy)
how do you find it? could you google imaage search it?
yes – google image search it.. they are beautiful!
Queen J. that’s the weirdest assignment I’ve ever heard of. Oh, except this thing my brother had to do, which was to go the library with this piece of paper and get all the library ladies to sign it. Then he had to check out a book, any book. It still sounds more enjoyable than translating Bob Dylan into German, though. *shudder* I’m not the biggest Bob Dylan fan. That song in particular is just too… I don’t know, whiny. Michelle, I feel for you. My dog is like my best friend and since I’m home skooled, he’s with me pretty much all day. To any idiot who says dogs aren’t beneficial, I say go suck an egg. Or soak your head. Or do some other weird thing that happens to be an idiom and doesn’t make much sense.
my television is malfunctioning. [that is, clicking on and off and on and off]
albino fawns are muy hermosa!
and i just found out that my school is on some program called “Ed-Line” and i can find my grades there. the 4th quarter just started. no grades yet.
can you believe that people in my school actually ask the teachers how many quarters there are? it is implied in the word, quarter. honestly! but i’m sure you’ve all found out that the school system is geared towards the, erm, slow kids. aargh.
mm, i guess that email has been circulating a lot.
Rosanne (39),
I’ll bet it means “preserve the meter so you can sing the German words to the original tune.”
I think that’s a GREAT assignment. Even better (for QJ, at least) would be translating Gilbert & Sullivan.
i am a newbie, pumpkin is so not the best, coconut cream is *throws way more pies at Ebeth than Ebeth threw at littlekali**really cool sound affects/effects splat sploosh splooch*
(56) why did he have to do that?
why is there a category called ‘life’ with nothing under it? why isn’t there a separate category for random threads of the month?
I’ve just added the categories Life, The Universe, and Everything. It would make sense to give each type of recurring thread its own subject heading. On the other hand, is this blog really about making sense? Au contraire, I’d say.
hey, i just read the ryan story, and it was really awesome! why can’t we post on that thread?
Can you make a new school thread? The other one is… rather large. You could pout it under the new “Life” catagory.
and regarding the threads of the month, can you wait to renew them until someone has trouble loading?
65- that would be muy bien.
The dial-up people all seem to start having problems around 300 posts, so that’s when I usually start new ones. As for Skool… your wish is our command.
68- ohhhhhhhh…
We have to translate songs written in Spanish into English…I guess it’s similar.
Our school has trimesters (as opposed to quarters)
really? when i was having problems it was with safari, and didn’t seem to be based on length at all, but simply discriminated against certain threads. my good old dial-up aol worked fine, if slowly. now that we have comcast i haven’t had any problems, though.
We have trimesters too.
My dialup is so slow that I start having problems around 200… But that’s just me, and it isn’t always. QUIERO BROADBAND!!
we have Safari too, and it wouldn’t load. What’s a Xanga?
It’s like a personal site or something….
A Xanga is a blog on the Xanga blogging service.
Me encanta mi Broadband. Es schnell beyond the wildest wet dreams of racing jockeys.
I know a catering service with the motto “Your dish is our command.” Cute.
39-THANK YOU! Kudos. I have it almost finished. It means that the syllable count per line is the same, so I can sing it along to the original song and it still fits. It is a weird assignment. “Street Language” German class. Last week I had to do Lou Reed’s “Take A Walk On The Wild Side.” In French. Mon dieu! Zut alors! Merde! etc.
sort-of like myspace.
i have cable.
my comp processes @ the super speed of 50.6 Kbps
75: So you can’t just plug it into an online translator, just kinda rearrange or change the words so it sounds good but still means the same thing?
my comp is pretty fast. Not the fastest comp in the world but it’s pretty good.
Oh my gosh, I cannot feel my toes!!! I mean this seriously and literrally. I just had two ingrown toenails removed and they used numicane or whatever you call it and it hasn’t worn off yet!!!! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i hate shots.
both my parents have DSL. I love their one commercial that had the song “Kick the motor into overdrive . . .” it had a catchy tune . . . which stayed stuck in my head forevahhhhhhh! I wish we got to do exciting things like translate songs into French in my class — we have a bunch of dumb kids who copy off my phrase de jour and don’t understand how I get a 101 percent. Sometimes it’s so boring I feel like crying, so I hit myself in the head with my free reader instead. It doesn’t really help the boredom, but it’s a good way to release tension.
i would really like my name on the Who’s Here list . . .
My mom has DSL…and teh computer I am using right now uses air-port (wireless internet), but we don’t have our own modem thing, we’re sharing with our neighbor, and it goes down a lot.
Oh, yeah, My sister, Taiwan Hippo Fan isn’t on the “who’s here’ list and would like to be.
same with me…..grrrrrrrrrrrrr
Thank u
im finally on the calander
my cousins were here thats why i havent been on in a while but i see we are on part 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:???:
hey, guess what?
yesterday all these boxes appeared at our door, and we didn’t know what they were.(apart from HUGE boxes)So we opened them, and they were full of Christmas stuff! There were millions of Santa Claus model things, and thing that did things while they sang/played a song. It was really weird! (and cool) We thind we know where they came from now,though
79-That would be the point, yes. Unfortunately, the word “baby”, as in not an infant, has no German word, so it is staying there. “Oh ja!” always makes me crack up. At least it doesn’t have to rhyme.
I love Japanese rappers rapping in Japanese, and French parody rappers are always hilarious. They’re French, but they’re rapping. “YO! Nous avons mange du bon pain et bu du bon vin, yo! Ne sois pas un mauviette! Oh oui, l’enfant!” (We ate some good bread and drank some good wine, yo! Don’t be a wimp! Oh yeah, baby!) The Who in Spanish makes me hyperventilate. And Beatles songs suck in Spanish.
82- yeah, it hasn’t been updated in a while…..like i’m still listed under my olde name…
I LOVE CHOKLIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOOM
80: I totally feel for you. When the whole toe-smashed-by-table incident happened, we went to the doctor and they shot shots into my toes. I thought it would make me not feel anything, but no, I still felt little pricks, even though it didn’t hurt. Drove me crazy!
DID the pricks hurt? I hate it when your foot falls asleep, and then when you walk, it feels like your foot is 2000000000000000 pounds, and like it’s made of rubber.
I hate annoying people who htink they are better than everyone else, and brag about how they won the two foot race by .000000001 seconds at the track meet, and how they are going to enter into the olypics to do the long jump. ARG!
table tennis is an olmypic sport…
Ok this should be pretty good for a random thread: I like cheese.
Is that random enough?
read the ryan story like em did!!!!!
it’s really an amazing story
So is curling, and half of the population doesn’t even know what it is. They think it has something to do with hair care.
Hello.
95- What is it with people and the phrase “I like cheese”?? All my friends are saying it all the time too…
Im listening to “Renegade” my Styx. Awesome cowbell.
Oh wait, now it’s playing Sublime…
I just got contacts. I got glasses, too. Its amazing. I can see. I feel really light headed.
Curling pwns! I dont care if people say it’s stupid, I love it.
The Who in Spanish????????? It makes you hyperventilate? I think it would make me have a heart attack…
curling is probably the coolest sport ever. my friend and i tried to start a school team…..it didn’t work……
I had an endoscopy/colonoscopy, and when they were putting the tube in my throat, they sprayed my throat with some numbing thing so I wouldn’t feel it, and it was really weird. I couldn’t feel my throat – I could barely swallow!
#100: whoa that does sound weird. ive had the numbing drops put in my eyes before, + that felt kind of funky. kind of like my eyeballs were swelling.
haha. curling…some ppl tried to start a skool team here too…
i get to watch C of N again! YAY!!!
i watched the thief lord last week. it wasnt that bad.
Did that ever go to theatres in the US yet? I never heard of it until like yesterday.
Boy, do I have a story for you.
*TRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK NOOOOOOOOIIIIISE SMOOOOOOOOOOOKE*
And thats the end.
Skipper NB&LC (98)
In answer to your cheese question: Could it have something to do with Wallace and Gromit? Wallace likes cheese. A lot.
I didn’t say it was stupid, its just… unusal. A nationwide comlunist (who was born in my local city) really based curling. He said that curling fans are easily excited. I have the article saved.
please don’t pie me (unless it’s choklit) but whats curling?
my mom and i went for a walk today. we were going to just go around on some streets but then we went through this development that had an aura — you know how places have a certain feeling you get whenever you think about them, well, i get that alot like in my old neighborhood we had an aura and now its gone which really bums me out because i love this house to death, unlike the olde one . . . — anyway, and then we cut through this field of wet clover because we were following the power lines, which go right next to my street, and it was raining so we were wet and the clover was wet and my jeans got really soaking, and then we crossed this little ravine where there was a stream and fifty million prickers and stuff. then we found this woodchip path that went by this REALLY PRETTY white house, well, it wasn’t that pretty really, but it had an auraX10 and we were trying not to be seen because there were No Trespassing signs everywhere, but then we cut through these cornfields and got back to our house. It totally rocked my world babyyyyyyyy ok done now . . . anyway, it was an adventure, probly the biggest one ill ever have . . . actually, if you count going on the Skyline Trail at Hawk Mountain, that was a bigger one. whatever. i’ll leave now.
please dont pie me
THANK YOU OH THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
as u kan c, i went on the who’s here page. although i never actually intended for the dragon’sson’sgirlfriend one to get out . . . ah, well, ’twas a passing fancy.
I think i just swallowed a piece of glass…
It’s lightninging (is that even a word) out…. I hate lightning. It scares me to death!!!!
Off to the closet to hide under blankets and listen to loud annoying music to drown out the sound…
Oh never mind. I’m OK.
Curling is like Hockey, only… unusal. Can someone expalin it better?
Sorry I haven’t been around. The Chairman’s favorite color is blue. I’ve been maxing and relaxing on Spring Break after touring colleges. We saw Wittenburg (I don’t know how you spell that) and Miami. Reeeaaaally different from each other.
I was thinking about starting my own newspaper, called “The Weekly Gripe.” Have my friends do some columns, write articles about how the government has screwed up this week.
Speaking of the government, I was surprised at how many people didn’t know who J. Edgar Hoover was. They thought I was talking about Herbert Hoover. I think everyone should know who J. Edgar Hoover was. Just so they know what the epitome of a bad man in a high place is.
More like bowling on ice, I’d say. Instead of a ball, you use a special disk-shaped stone with a handle, and instead of knocking down pins, you try to slide the stone down the ice so that it comes to rest in the middle of a target. As it glides slowly along, other team members skate ahead and try to keep it on course (or change its course) by sweeping the ice in front of it with brooms.
As usual, Wikipedia can tell you more.
Hey, I’ve seen curling! It looks sorta odd. The players wear strange slipcovers on the soles of their shoes so they can manouvre more easily on the ice.
Nancy: Does no one care that I nearly just died? What if I did die from swallowing glass and no one knew, they just thought I had stopped posting?
Lemon Curry: Aye aye aye, Nancy, get a grip….
I have a grammar question: How do I know when to use “that” and when to use “which”?
As in “You know that store we that/which we went to last week?”
Yeah, I think it’s funny how they sweep the ice in front of it. It looks really weird!
*lurklurk*
OMG! my cousins are coming over for two months! Nine peopel! A cat and two dogs! HELP!
fun, fun, fun!
so im gone for like 3 days and i come back and theres a part 3 with 118 comments already?!??! YIKES!!!!
SNB/LC (115),
Strunk and White’s great little book The Elements of Style explains it well. I don’t think it’s online, but everybody should have it. It takes half an hour to read and will change your life (yes, even more than the Shins).
The University of Chicago style manual’s online FAQs also tackles the subject of that/which, in a slightly wordier way.
As an editor, of course, I enjoy reading style manuals. Fans of British English should see what the British news magazine The Economist has to say about differences between British and American style.
I’ve seen that book. I think my dad has it.
*enjoys last hours of privacy*
right, gotta go make waffles!!
YAY! Waffles! I love waffles. We make them from scratch…recipe on the muse how-to page!!!
we made them yesterday morning………
they were delicious…………..
112- J. Edgar Hoover? wasn’t he, like, the dictator of the FBI who almost became president?
117- i feel your pain. people are coming over my house for easter. two little kids. little kids freak me out.
does anyone know what one would do at an Indian [as in the India in Asia] sweet 16? i am going to one today @ 4:00. my friend says it’s almost the same as an american one, only there’s a lot of garba, which seems to be some kind of dance….

125- what do you do at an american sweet 16?
I was thinking, which is always a bad idea. It’s funny (funny-strange) how the link policy here is so different from that of the gaboomba- here links are discouraged while when we were using the gaboomba Robert would actually add them to our posts in case someone didn’t know what something was or something. It’s also funny-strange how in the gaboomba three weeks could go by without anyone posting while here if three hours go by without posts people get all “hey, where is everybody? Why aren’t my posts getting posted?”. Hence I don’t know who half of the people here are or what we’re talking about in most of the threads.
I learned to do a waltz jump yesterday. Yay.
Hi all! I am at my relitives house. GAHHH! TOO MANY POSTS!!! I am not reading all of this….I off to throw pies now!
127- dance. eat. get annoyed by those people snogging in the corner. apparently, everyone will be wearing saris. i will look like such a freak-child.
Nobody’s going to be looking at you. Just enjoy yourself! It sounds great. Then come back and give us a full report.
Indian sweet 16? sounds . . . fun . . . interesting . . .
i didn’t know they even HAD sweet 16s anymore.
i shall!
mrahr. so this morning my mother has been trying to make me eat one of those nasty jello eggs. were going to hav a family get together @ my aunt + uncles tomorrow (so ill probably be hiding out in their basement w/ their comp the entire time)
grr…i feel like standing on a soapbox + preaching for the whole world to hear do u know whats in jello? bones! yes! ground up cow bones!
waffles sound good right now
Hello! Who was talking about waffles? JS and I posted a really good (if I say so myself) recipe only then I couldn’t find it and asked Blobby to, maybe he did!
Oops, sorry Bobby. Didn’t realise I’d called you Blobby. Kinda funny though.
Your comment is still awaiting the vile process known as moderation.
haha. Blobby. *is pied by GAPA*
mmm…. cow bone jello. My favorite.
We should all be getting blobby, with so many pies whizzing around. Fortunately, they never last long enough for us to eat them.

115- and never use that or which when refering to people.
hroom hoom . . . i use them interchangeably. that and which, i mean. have you ever tried to write a four-page story about a thing that makes old people younger and then kills them? its very annoying. i wish my english teacher, to be referred to hereafter as the Clark Bar, would give me decent assignments.
Mr. Coontz, I patently refuse to become blobby. Or Bobby, for that matter. I may be a geek, but I am a slender geek! Caffeine has a slimming effect! KYAAAAAAH!!!!!
maybe i should start drinking coffee . . . on the other hand, i’ll just exercise. it isn’t so much fat as flab.
I’m tired….I just climbed a zillion hills/mountains with rocks in the wods….*sigh*
Most of you live in America, and you’re young. You are very fortunate. You have been spared the phenomenon of Mr. Blobby, who appeared on British television about a decade and a half ago. He was eight feet tall, apparently made of foam rubber, and coloured pink with yellow spots, if memory serves. Whoever was inside him obviously couldn’t see anything. He wandered round various television programmes burbling “blobby blobby blobby” in a robotic voice, and bumping into things. He presented the most embarrassingly pointless spectacle to darken the annals of British televison in a very long time. By comparision, Barney the Purple Dinosaur is a paragon of erudition and gravitas.
I’m going to have to put the kettle on. The memory is too vivid.
(120) Thanks! I’m checking my house right now for that book. I looked at the “Dos and Don’ts” on the Economist page. It was interesting; I certainly could improve on a lot of the things it talked about.
Paul,
I lived in Britain during part of the Mr. Blobby era. Brrr. I’d rather not think about it.
Grr. My dad says we have a copy of The Elements of Style but I can’t find it. Why does everything in this house lose itself so easily?
It must have been very scary. You were very brave!
attention musebloggers! bcavefish has updated dark waters!
Nancy, baby, the reason you can’t find Strunk and White’s The Elements of Style is that you don’t want it. It is mind-bogglingly sophomoric. What thou truly desireth in thy heart is Lynne Truss’s Eats, Shoots, and Leaves, one of my favorite punctuation books. It’s hilarious.
I hate barney the so fake dinosaur, and i know 2 versions of his “i love you” song.
146- Oooh poor you! I feel your pain.(no, wait, I was just sitting on a thimble) lol
151-Huh?
grrr… nasty 2 hr admin breaks, we hates them.
How do you get to dark waters?
My comments are awaiting your moderation
please please PUH-LEEZ no more grammar talk for the love of God!!!! I get that enough from the Clark Bar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GAAH! SHE HAS NO RESPECT FOR THE IMPORTANCE OF THE FRAGMENT IN FIRST-PERSON WRITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry, just had to get that out of my system.
something tells me that something as declasse as a cavefish shouldn’t have a blog with as classy a name as Dark Waters. i mean, i know it totally fits, but . . . just use your imaginations, people. it doesn’t fit. baaaad viiiiibes
my indian friend told me how to give myself an aura, but she says it’s really easy and i tried it and i still havent gotten it so i think she ‘s making it up. if you want to see if it works, you’re supposed to concentrate on the place between your eyes on the inside of your head your “third eye”
you worthless little comment is awaiting moderation
well this weekend has relly rocked. its sure going to be a blast doing AP lang homework all day tomorrow. mrahr.
you know whats good? hot choklit mixed w/ chai. makes you feel real jazzy…if i was in a good mood, i might even be hyper now
158 (LG)- But grammar’s so much fun, dahling. You really don’t want us to stop talking about it, now do you? Of course you don’t. Now that that’s all settled, whe can all obsessive-fangirl-ize about Eats, Shoots, and Leaves. Ah, the wondrous sound of the words ‘full stop.’ So much nicer than dingy little ‘period.’ Not that ‘period’ isn’t a perfectly fine word or anything, but ‘full stop’ is so much more round and beautiful.
Queenie- I only read about five pages of it in passing, but I loved that book next bookstore trip, I’m going to find it again.
Have pity on Barney’s poor mortal soul, he was your friend in another dimension.
Eats Shoots and Leaves is Dick Cheneys biography
I just went to a roller durby championship (as in I watched, not competed). It was fun. Roller durby is a funny sport.
I think I shall check out the polling thread.
I’m going to England this summer! Next weekend I’m having a partay! I’m learning to drive stick-shift! It’s really hard! I keep stalling out! There is no cohesion between those three subjects! Why am I ending all of these sentences with exclamation points! I’m going to stop and move on to something!
There is a book coming out that heralds the decay of society. It’s called “The Alphabet of Manliness,” and it’s by a man named George Ouzounian, more commonly known as Maddox the Pirate. He runs his own website, the most commonly visited website out there. I’m not going to post the url because most of his material is really offensive and inappropriate for most of the people on here.
Close, “sweet melpomene.” J. Edgar Hoover was the tyrannical head of the FBI for 68 years too long. (Yes, that’s how long he was head of the FBI.) Evil man! A horrible irony: he violated the civil rights of civil rights leaders. He did this in probably a lot of ways, but I’m only aware of his tapping Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X’s telephones.
Say, melpomene, what generation are you anyway?
That’s horrible! Evil people. Is it that evil people are the ones who get power, or is it that people in power become evil?
My eldest sister drives stick. When she was first learning, it was really scary to drive with her. She kept stalling in the middle of intersections.
I’m going to jump in the pool, I think. Or maybe I’ll just go to bed. Decisions, decisions.
happy easter everybody! where is the easter theread?
the m&ms are conspiring against me.
i just left a dark waters link on ebeth’s xanga, if you know where that is. i’ll leave one on nationstates if you ask.
generation 5, which is, in actuality, the sixth generation. [first comment=march6]
yeah….that was my slightly exaggerated interpretation of the character of j. edgar hoover. i do that…
my parentals wish to begin to instruct me in the driving process, but i didn’t think it wise. i can barely handle a shopping cart.
anyway, i just woke up and i am still hyper from the partay last night. i was there all night.
it was undoubtedly the froodiest partay i have ever attended.
the food was excellent, though i had no idea what it was. very spicy for the most parte, but some of it was quite sweet.
the indian musick pwned. i seriously need to get some of it. all of it had an amazing beat and very flowy rythym. there were even dancing routines, which were brilliant! then everyone danced and i even managed the electric slide. [and, as usual, jumped and headbanged to “everytime” but that’s a long story…]. there was this really cool dance to the indian musick that involved hitting sticks together in two big lines, but i couldn’t get the “hang” of it.
and the womon had the most amazing outfits. positively flamablamablous! they were really bright, mostly had skirts and belly-shirts, and were heavily beaded so that they literally shone. they also had shawl-like-scarf things attached….and they wore henna tattoos.
in all, coolest partay in the history of all things celebrational.
HOT PINK EASTER BUNNIES!!! Wheee! Hpbs out in force! MG killed the easter bunny *gasp* MURDERER!!! MUCH CHOKLIT!!! CHOKLIT! CHOKLIT! WHEEEEEE!!!!!!

I ♥ CHOKLIT
my mom just got me a new pair of PJs the’re really cute:grin:
the chemo that my mom got makes her feet feel like they are asleep 24/7- its called neropathy
2 more days till her surgery
We biked several miles to this bagel store for breakfast! It was really fun (this shows I’m not Jewish!)
I hate Easter. It’s a stupid holiday. I do, however, have tons of See’s chocolate (mm! See “Choklit” thread), a new light-up Anakin Skywalker lightsaber, as well as an awesome light-up dirk that will RULE THE WORLD! MWAHAHAHA!
PH34R M3 + M1 4W3SUM L337 SK1LLZ!!!!!!!!!
Do you think I spend too much time on Slashdot? Well, there’s not that much else to do inside the CIC, and I don’t knit, but I’m working on translating Jimi Hendrix into-you guessed it-French. It just doesn’t work. Luckily, my other assignment, “Break On Through (To The Other Side)” by the Doors was ALREADY translated into French. Phew. Actually, Jim Morrison was big in France. La la la la la. Don’t help me on this one, I have several French-speakers tackling it.
162-I just got that. You have a mind like a corkscrew.
i went to church. yay. there was an egg hunt, and i found some hpbs. they taste terrible, though.
GAPA, I think there is a decent excuse now to put A WHOLE BUNCH OF HOT PINK BUNNIES on the blog. It is, after all, Easter. Unless you’re not Christian.
Oh man.
My friend gave me the soundtrack to Wicked yesterday.
♥ ♥ ♥
I understand now why everyone on here was obsessing about it a while ago. So far, I’d say my favorite song is “Popular”. I really really really want to see it now. I’ve never seen The Wizard of Oz, though, because people predicted it would be too scary for me (I get scared really easily- I can’t even watch Disney movies without nightmares), so I probably couldn’t see this either.. meh. Oh man, and they can all sing so bloody high… I really should go analyse passages for English.. although if I don’t edit it my teacher will probably end up with “unadulterated loathing” in the midst of Pride&Prejudice analysis..
hi
179-*gasp* I love easter! Choklit and hot pink bunnies…the most muse-ish holiday ever!!!!
Squee i love the doors too.
I don’t speak french though.
Me hyper. CHOKLIT! Yaaaaaaaay!
I got beaten by HUGH at foosball! He’s like 9 or something! Oh the humiliation!!! Ah well, i beat Grant at pool a few more times to make up. And i beat lb at foosball once. But then i always do…this is not arrogance/bragging/exaggerating. absolute truth.
We haven’t played schmere yet at all…
We’ll probably do that tonight though.
hi Y4THPB. I hope your moms surgery goes alright.
I forgot that it was easter till this morning. oops. I think I’ll decorate eggs using the ukranian method. It’s really fun.
We decorate eggs the ukranian method – It is really fun – they look really cool afterward!
i just assembled a puzzle-map of the world. physical, not political. well, political was on the other side [and it was boring].
Post a radnom liunk and see where it leads game!

Indeed. Impressive. Can’t wait to see what the Pie Lion can do on the battlefeild. I alreayd taught him in the animal training center to lift leg on Norrisers.
(186) ah yes, ukranian egg dyeing. no matter how hard you try, at the end of the day you are inevitably putting crazy dot patterns on innocent eggs, and your hands look like modern art. OK, so im not that bad, but its true.
Changing topic:
Cacti! Lets talk about cacti. Cacti cacti cacti. It’s really fun to say. Try it. Cacticacticacticacti!

i was really bored last night, and my computer was *shudder* crashing againe.

then i painted “pwt pwns” on a t-shirt next to some hpbs. i think i shall add “koko for pres”

To someone back somewhere in the 140ishes. This is our families version of the Barney ‘I love you’ song:
I hate you,
You hate me,
We’re a sappy family,
With a great big slap
And a kick from me to you,
Won’t you say you hate me too!
Or something like that.
Anyway, I haven’t been on the blog for four days ’cause I was gone for Friday through Sunday, and now when I come back there’s eight new threads! EEK!
Mufasa caughs up hairball pie, you know. Oh, and the wars over. Neutrals have won, since everybody else has gone away and pie wars lovers really didn’t take a side. Time to rebuild civilization.
Agriculture should do well. There’s compostable material all over the place.
We were in Juneau and Sitka Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, ’cause my sister’s in a youth symphony that travelled there.
We flew to Sitka on Friday. It’s really pretty there. The vegetation is quite a bit different than it is in the part of Alaska where I live. There’s hardly any deciduous trees in Sitka/Juneau and the conifers are a much lighter brighter green. Where I live we mostly have only black spruce, and they’re tall, but straggly looking. We wandered around town most of the afternoon, looking for somewhere to eat, and for our hotel, since we were dropped off at Totem Pole park, on the opposite side of town. The weather was surprisingly sunny. In both Juneau and Sitka, it usually rains almost constantly. However, all three days we were there, it was either sunny or cloudy with no rain.
On Saturday, we took a six hour boat ride on a catamaran from Sitka to Juneau. It was lots of fun. We saw an otter, a couple of humpback whales, and a couple of harbour porpoises. The coolest thing we saw, though, was a pod of at least 50 killer whales. It was so cool. They stopped the boat in the middle of the superpod (that’s what they’re apparently called when they’re that big. And superpods are apparently an extremely uncommon thing to see.) for about fifteen minutes or so. There was at least 50 swimming around the boat. Some of them were kinda far in the distance, and some where just a few yards from the boat. It was awesome!
That afternoon, we went on a short drive around Juneau, which if you don’t already know this is the capital of Alaska, and only the third largest city in AK. We drove by the capitol building, the governor’s mansion, and the government buildings.
Sunday afternoon we flew back home. Then we drove all over trying to find somewhere that was open so we could eat dinner, ’cause we didn’t just want to eat leftovers at home ’cause it was Easter. Finally we went to Fred Meyers and got fried chicken and jo-jos. We’d stopped at Carrs first, but they didn’t have any hot food. I s’pose ’cause it was Easter.
Oh, yeah. Friday and Saturday night. The youth symphony my sister’s in performed concerts.
It was lots of fun. ‘Specially seeing the humongous pod of whales!
226- yes, they’re very deadly….i wonder what i’ll do with him now that the war is over…
y4hpb, I really hope your mom’s surgery goes well! I know what it’s like to have your mom go away for surgery. A couple or so years ago my mom had to have surgery on her back ’cause she has scoliosis, and when she was a teenager she had a rod put in, but it needed replaced ’cause it had got messed up. So she was gone for at least a couple weeks I think, to get a new rod put in and to have like most of her vertebrae fused.
It sucks not having your mom around. I wish your mom luck and hope her surgery is succesful, and that she’s gone as little time as possible! And that the time she’s gone passes quickly. Unfortunately, it will probably seem like an eternity to you. At least the day she’s having surgery probably will.
Anyways, I hope it goes good, and that she doesn’t have to have any other surgeries!
Use him for defense against Kokopelli
But the war will start up again, soon, once we get into another argument.
oh gods above, i just found the queen’s site. she will probably appreciate that i couldn’t figure out what the heck it was or what i was supposed to do with it.
indeed!
You’re so lucky you live in Alaska! That sounds really fun. ^^
We’re still in our “sort of rainy” season in California. I’ll tell you, it horrible when it’s hot, but it’s so nic ehere whn it rains.
Ahhhh. Haru no ameashi.
michelle w- thanks alot i’ll tell her that you wish her luck- now lets just hope shes out by april 27(my birthday…)
sweet melpomene- thanks 4 thinking of my mom! i just nearly had a heart attack when i was reading you gibberish(220) Kiri is my sisters name
i decided not to be yay4hotpinkbunnies anymore.
i like my new name better
do you think the Gapas could make a thread that people can write to my mom in
Please!
yay! books! well, yes the waffles were so good i got a stomach ache cuz i ate too many. we make ours from scratch too.
*sigh* robert, why do you never return my neomails? or are you afraid of encouraging me?
Neopets has become a merchandising frachinse
I never go to Neopets anymore. MuseBlog takes up all my time.
Ah, HRF (Her Royal Froodiness)’s site. It’s the first thing that pops up when you type ‘cathassus’ into Google. It’s spiffy. Me gusta.
235- oh, sorry…it’s an annoying spanish song that happened to be stuck in my head. all. day. long.
240- exactly. i stopped a while ago.
237, tpspop, formerly y4hpb, I think that’s a good idea. Your mom and you would appreciate knowing people are thinking about her! Hope all goes well for her tomorrow.
Oh, jeesh, I’m slow. He already made a thread for your mom. Guess I should pay more attention. I just went straight to this thread from my history, without going to the mb homepage. Whatever…
all you have to do is answer the bloody neomails! i might just declare war on you! again!
my dog is so bad-
ok so her i am blogging and i see the dog. she isnt allowed upstairs so i told her to go down. she did and while she did she took a spool of white thread that was on the floor. i then had to chase her around the house trying to get it back. i then got stuck under the dining room table becuz that was where the dog had been. i get unstuck. the dog goes back under the table. i manage to reach under and grab her coler. i pull her out and then i got the spool of thread back. the spool of thread is now thourougly chewed and a nasty color. it is now back upstairs so my mom can do whatever with it. then i get back on museblog. the dog starts to bark. thinking that the dog was barking at the cat, i went downstairs. the dog wasnt, just barking at the wall. she then did this thing where she conors me and then starts barking and biting at you. i managed to find a newspaper and treatened to spank her. now i am upstairs blogging.
the dogs name is Mayhem. (im not making this up!)
THE EVIL DOG IS OUTSIDE:grin:

#215: ha!
Michelle W: thats sounds relly schweet.
(216.) Read about it? Try living in a place where it’s more common than trees (only a very slight exaggeration).
Sorry, I was posting that stuff about cacti because I just got back from walking my dog, and I was reading while walking, and I stepped on a piece of cholla cactus and it went through my sandal and took for ever me to get it out and a lot thorns got stuck in my feet.
Wow Michelle! Thats so cool about the whales. Alaska sounds so interesting. Incredibly different from Arizona… I’d like to go there sometime *quickly starts formulating plans to stalk Michelle*
My dog is named Euler. After the mathematician. No kidding.
ok…

We missed you sorely. Is that how you spell sorley? Whatever.
How was it? Japan. So cool. I’m green with envy.
262 (Otzi)- I am insanely jealous of you. I think I said that already. And it’s spelt ‘konichiwa.’ Just letting ye knoo, ye knoo? (What kind of accent is that? I have no idea.)
GAPAs, do you remember my question about traffic? can you answer it? pleeeeeeeeeeeease?

quick, who was that dude koko pretended to be at the end of smart pies?
Yup, though simply baka is an insult. ^^ Yay.
Dr. Eze Momoh.
thanks.
I saw a movie online of this cartoon girl yelling “baka” at this cartoon boy over and over and over again
for some reason it was really amusing
Okay, this is funny guys. I was doing my literature homework on “The Monkey’s Paw” and the last assignment was to write a story using the basic plot structure of “The Monkey’s Paw”. I was randomly inspired, and started writing. I got about halfway through when I saw the words “Create a plot structure only”
I think you might be interested in what I wrote. i did go slightly overboard.
Bobbie and Rosie were an old couple living in a little house in an anonymous patch of woods just outside of an anonymous town, in New Jersey, because New Jersey is so anonymous it is now famous for its anonymity. They were in hiding because a group of Musers, or fans of Muse Magazine, were in the habit of mobbing their house, screaming wildly, and demanding autographs, which is the kind of thing that generally only happens in overy-dramatic television and various peoples’ imagination, but nevertheless it was happening quite frequently nowadays to poor Bobbie and Rosie. The reason for all of this was their involvement in a fan page for such Musers, which had made them quite popular indeed.
One evening as Bobbie was sitting quietly at his computer and deleting links that might possibly be potentially dangerous to those innocent young minds, or what innocence was left in such minds, he noticed a particularly strange link that hadn’t been posted by any known posters. There was no name entered, and the email was invalid. It was probably just more spam. Angrily, he zapped the whole post, but not before opening a window to the link. What he saw surprised even old Bobbie, who had seen many strange websites in his day.
“Rosie,” he called, “come look at this!”
Rosie was sitting in the corner, and persisting in a lack of knitting or knitting-related activities, which, contrary to popular belief, was not unusual for a woman her age. Instead, she was working on the daily Sudoku, which was causing her considerable frustration and annoyance, so she was quite relived to comply with Bobbie’s request. Setting down her pencil, she walked over to where Bobbie was sitting and looked over his shoulder.
On the screen was, in bold capital letters, “CONGRADULATIONS, YOU HAVE BEEN GRANTED THREE WISHES!”
“Good grief,” said Rosie, “What a ridiculous advertisement. I can’t even see what they are selling!”
Suddenly, the screen went black.
“Darn,” muttered Bobbie, “Must’ve pulled the power cord again.” As he bent down to fumble with the tangle of cords and wires, lighting flickered across the screen. Startled, Rosie jumped back. Bobbie looked up at her sudden movement, and said, “What?” Then he noticed the computer screen, which was by now flickering dramatically. As he did, there was a rumble of thunder so loud that the old couple glanced out the window before realizing that the source of the sound was the computer. Red letters scrolled across the screen, “BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR…” and a text box appeared below them with a flashing cursor.
Bobbie hit the mouse button various times, fiddled with the keyboard, and turned the power on and off, but the still-flickering screen stayed unchanged. Both old people stared at the screen in bewilderment. The constant flickering was giving them headaches. The thunder rumbled again, this time louder.
Finally, “You could try typing something in the box,” Rosie suggested nervously.
Bobbie gave this some thought, and sat down in his swivel chair. He ran his hands over the keyboard, tapped a few keys, and quickly deleted the resulting letters. Then, summoning his courage, he typed “I wish the Musers would leave us alone” and clicked the button handily labeled, “Wish”
Both people held their breath as the computer processed the command. Then, as quickly as it had started, the lightening stopped, and the text box disappeared. Bobbie’s computer screen returned to the way it was before the startling occurrence, with the exception of the mysterious window.
righto. that’s it. and if you want to know what happens next, it’s nearly midnight for god’s sake. give me a break.
spelling correction: overly, not overy.
It is NOT spelled with a K.
It was awesome. I went and saw a HUGE, old Buddha, and it was really cool.(Like 50 foot tall) In Tkyo, I went to the Imperial palace, and I heard this tortured screaming, so I turned to the guide, and he said “oh, they are–how do you say—just practicing” Either that or somebody pissed off the emperor.
We also went and saw a cliff that a 11 year old girl threw herself off:
She was returning from a pilgramage on Enoshima Island when a Monk saw her:
“Man, she’s pretty”
They fell in LUUUURVE, but soon, something happened and she decided thier luuuurve was in vain, and threw herself into a gorge. The monk, blinded by love, threw himself after her.
We can only assume that solved things.
And no, I have no Idea how old he was.
urgh…
The Buddha was on Enoshima Island, NOT Tokyo.

Amazing! That’s exactly like Rosanne and me, except that we live 3,000 miles apart, she already has a husband, and neither of us has ever spent much time in New Jersey. Apart from that, though–uncanny!
Actually.
Konichiwa is correct, romanized. I can’t find the knaji right now, and I doubt wordpress would allow it in any case.
That’s typical Japanese: violent passion that ends in killing yourself.
xD
My grandparents wen to Japan to visit relatives once. ;-; Man I want to go so bad.
-goes to listen to No Regret Life-
what evah.
Isn’t that a bit egyptian 2? u know, like Cleo & Marc the Narc?
Em (274),
Love the story!
I did knit a sweater once, actually. It’s dark green. It’s resting on a shelf in my closet. Here in California it rarely gets cold enough to wear it. Good ol’ dark green sweater.

I don’t remember the traffic question. I think it must’ve whizzed right past me. What was it?
It was in Part Two, comment 264: why people change lanes so much, and whether it slows traffic down or speeds it up.
I’m sure traffic engineers have investigated that question, and I’d be happy to research it for the Q&A column. From my own experiences, I’d guess that people change lanes a lot more than necessary and that it doesn’t do them as much good as they think. Often I’ll see people weaving impatiently from lane to lane, trying to accumulate minute advantages by hopping ahead of other cars, and then I wind up right beside them at the next traffic light. (They don’t remember me, but I remember them. One thing about aggressive driving: it makes you memorable.)
*feeling melancholy due to pie peace* when will we start the war again?
Daaaaang I meant to say kanji. -can’t spell-
I suppose it is a bit like everyone. xD But Japanese are like that somewhat, out of culture. The suicide rate is higher that the homicide rate. Sad, but true. Though that has a lot to do with the school system. But then again that goes back to the whole drive they have for everyting…hmm.
my mother is a crazy driver. she always tries to get away from the mass of cars, and it doesn’t seem to matter to her whether she has to speed up or slow down to do so.
i went pretty crazy over the april mag.
I have a traffic related question. Why is it that cars have the driver’s seat opposite to the side of the road that one is supposed to drive on? If the seat were on the same side as the lane that the car was to be driven in, you wouldn’t have to block traffic when you wanted to drop something in the postbox. That was an, erm, interesting story, Em. Is the monkeys paw that one Poe story where the people wish for, like, fifty pounds or something and it kills somebody? Or something like that? Well actually, if it is a Poe story, it’s a safe bet that somebody dies, so I guess what I should be asking is: is it a Poe story?
The Monkey’s Paw isn’t Poe. it’s W.W.Jacobs. the text can be found here: http://gaslight.mtroyal.ab.ca/mnkyspaw.htm
I hate changing lanes. I try to stay in one lane as much as possible. Namely, the right hand lane, ’cause that’s where the slow people are, and every body in the left hand lane is always going 5 to 10 miles over the speed limit, and I go either the speed limit or 5 miles under.
By the way, here in Alaska, you can get your learners permit at age 14, and your driver’s license at age 16. I’m sixteen, and I’ve got to get my license soon, ’cause my permit expires in a couple weeks, and I still haven’t practised parallel parking. That is to say, my parents want me to get my license. Technically, I could get another permit, and then have two more years to practise parallel parking before I get my license…
I HATE DRIVING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, anyway, I need to take a practise AP Calc test, to find out that I’ve forgotten all of the Calc I learned, and that I will likely get a 1 on the test. (5 is the best you can get.)
Yeah, I remember that story. It wasn’t that interesting.
Are they still teaching “The Monkey’s Paw”? They made us read it when I was in school, and even then I thought it was a lot of old rubbish. (Please excuse the uncharacteristic display of heated opinion on the part of your GAPA.) At least I hope they’ve had the sense to retire “The Most Dangerous Game” and “The Lady or the Tiger?” I suppose “The Pit and the Pendulum” is sacrosanct…
I saw “The Monekys Paw” as a play on a school feidsl trip. I read “The lady or the tiger’ on my own.
they did a bunch of plays at GMU that we saw, including the monkeys paw, the open window, and the lady or the tiger. i don’t think the last one is in my lit text though. hold on-i’ll check.
no. but the tell-tale heart is in there.
yes, i did take some literary license with bobbie and rosie because the textbook said it had to be an old couple.
does anyone want me to write the rest of my story? or should i just tell you what happens next?

My Story
Once upon a time there was a bug called Humpfrey. Actually his real name was dsgflsaejtcngwehcrhw but no one can say that, so we will just call him Humpfrey. Anyway one day Humpfry decided to talk a walk. He was just going to walk to the compost pile and back, but he got distracted. *:gasp:* This was not a very big suprise seeing as he had ADHD and couldn’t keep foucused on alot of things at once.
*stay tuned 4 more*
Humpfrey had sniffed fka.jfhoudsbhg or George as we’ll call him. George was his best friend. Humpfrey and George were always getting in trouble.
*stay tuned 4 even more!*
I know Japanese!
