Actually, I just got back from a party with my zoology club. There were drinking games aplenty...especially that there beer pong But you're underage ! How could you be drinking ? It's so wrong ! haha. Happy partying kiddo. Is it still your birthday where you live? Oh well, if it's not, happy partying some other time.
You have true empathy, SHE, and you really nailed it here. The more I read you, the more I like you, and that's the truth. Thanks. That actually means a lot to me. I also agree with what you said. She didn't report him at first because she felt it was her fault -- she was responsible. In a way, I'm glad she isn't just blaming other people for what happened. By taking responsibility, she takes control over what will happen to her in the futu
Ok, now we really are going to have to start calling you a hooker, LOL. It's too funny to pass up. Oh crap. My secret is out. Now, the whole world is going to know. And this many people (especially guys!) wouldn't BS you about how beautiful you are. especially since, in a setting like this, if we didn't think so - all we'd have to do is not say anything! Ok then. I'll believe you. "I feel
I second Texas' and SanChonino's comments... you're quite the looker. When I first saw this, I thought you were calling me a hooker. However, I will say thank you and that I think you're all full of something... but I'm not sure what... but thanks just the same.
I feel the need to explain the Leprechaun picture. You see, we were in Rive del Garda, Italy for a choir competition. 23 countries were represented by 64 choirs. We were the only American choir there. In fact, we were the only American choir ever invited to compete. We ended up hanging out with the South Africans and the Irish the most... mostly because they spoke English. They were both great groups. Of course, the Irish brought along a mascot. He dressed like that for the opening and c
Question: have you ever been to Italy? How'd you know? Actually, we flew over on my 20th birthday. The man checking our passports gave me a birthday kiss! I wish I could go back... Nice pics and well done, SHE. I enjoyed watching them. Glad you liked 'em. I just couldn't resist putting them up there for all of JU to see.
Ooh! Ooh! I'm coming to Hawaii this summer . . I'm jealous!

I miss Danny. He was a pretty cool guy... even if he did like acronyms so much.
I like the scavenger hunt and the pajama party ideas. I did too. Maybe once I move to my apartment I can use some of these ideas. In fact, I mean to. Come visit me in Hawaii and I'll do cool stuff with you. If I ever make it over that way, I plan to take you up on that! You know what the saddest thing i
My son says you are forgiven! I'm so glad. I really didn't want to be filleted.
That was Eli Wallach, and my son would filet you if he heard you refer to him that way! I apologize. At least I recognized Dustin Hoffman in the video store. One of the girls who hadn't been playing close attention asked, "Who is that guy? Why is the camera on him?" "Because that's Dustin Hoffman, and Jack Black just picked up 'The Graduate'." "Who's that and what movie is that?" I looked at her for a long time, trying to fi
My wife just rented that movie over the weekend, and made me watch it.......twice!!!! You poor, poor thing. I liked the Jack Black / Kate Winslet story line... especially how they both escaped their bad relationship patterns... and the old guy was precious. I just don't like Cameron Diaz or Jude Law -- and I didn't care for their story line either. I guess it wasn't a "bad" movie, but it's not one I'll watch again any time soon.
The girl was insensitive, sure, but I feel the question was legitimate. As difficult as it is to go through a rape trial, far too many women refuse to subject themselves to the ordeal, which of course, allows the rapist to carry on and create more victims. Too true. RAINN statistics say that about 55% of all rapes go unreported. Our director for the center of abused women said that, out of the reported cases, only 1/10 will go to trial, and only 1/3 of
Oh, and he does graphic novels. Sorry to leave that out! He's also working on a movie version of Beowulf (Angelina Jolie as Grendel's mother) and he did the screenplay for Mirrormask, and his book Stardust is set to become a movie in the next two years or so. If you haven't heard of him yet, you probably will soon. He's also very funny -- in writing and in person. When he told his guidance counselor that he wanted to write for comics, he said the man, "Looked like I had slap
Verdict is... I have loser friends. They didn't want to DO anything. They came over, ate my cupcakes, some people stayed to watch "The Holiday", but nobody stayed until the end. I had monopoly and LotR Trivial Pursuit, but we didn't play them. (Of course, no one will play LotR TP with me) I really loved the suggestions, and if I ever get cooler friends, I will definitely use some of them. Thank you all so much for your help. I wish I had a better story to tell you.
I really only try to read one piece of fiction at a time. I gave up on that a long time ago. I'm not happy unless I'm in the middle of at least three books. But then, I'm kinda strange... Had you read American Gods before? I loved it. I was actually reading it for the first time when Neil came to my school. I adored it, and was so mad that I didn't have time to add it to my thesis. Also, do you read the introductions he writes? I
I was sitting with a group of friends (all girls) and we were talking about things that had happened to us in the past. One girl admitted to being raped by her ex boyfriend. This was a very sensitive subject -- one that requires tact and, preferably, sympathy. She told her story, and we listened respectfully and then told her how sorry we were that this had happene
My entire minor is devoted to BS... which I am grateful for. Congrats mate, how many papers / finals do you have left?
Yeah, thanks for letting me know. Sorry, couldn't help it. It's the second coolest thing to ever happen to me. Have you read the book he wrote with Terry Pratchett "Good Omens"? It is a great, funny read. That's actually the first thing I read by him. It's also the first book I give to most people. I've had to r
Happy Birthday Kid! This doesn't mean you can slack off though... you have work to do!
I'm in a bad mood tonight. Not an angry mood, not even an irritable mood, but a funky one. There's really no good reason for it... and I'm feeling sorry for myself, so I won't come out of it. Sure, I could tell you about the things that started it... like my two best friends left in Conway did not show up to my farewell party. More people than I expect
Neil Gaiman is one of my favourite authors. This may be very mean of me, but I've met him and I got my copy of Fragile Things signed! I also have an audio book of Fragile Things with Neil reading it. It's fantastic. So, Tova, that's two votes. You have to read him now!
Actually, that's not a bad idea... or ice skating for that matter. Actually, I think there's a rink that has both... Thanks Gideon! Anyone else? Not that Gideon's wasn't great, but I like having options to present to folks.
So, I thought that I would have a little "farewell" party to say goodbye to some of my favorite younger friends. I figured we could come up with some fun ideas that everyone could participate in -- you know, something the under 21 crowd could enjoy. I asked everyone for ideas... but I got no help from them. My brain is very tired right now, and I'm not feeling crea
