Oh Yeah....It sounded nice but please let no one think that Xena actually thought anything like that. That was purely a nice piece of fiction. Of course we all knew what to say and how to say it. Everything we said from the platform and in the back of the hall was spoken in an unholy theocratic language. Our words at the door in field service came from someone else's mind. Our smiles at the assemblies were forced to the surface while the thoughts of the nearby amusement park were kept tightly boxed until the closing prayer. Every time we were invited to an office party we spoke someone else's words. We really did want to party. We wanted to be on the company softball team. We craved the action-packed and sexy R-rated movies while we denied ever seeing them. Looking back, don't we all feel like puppets? Somehow under the control of the master of the harvest? I remember the night I cut the strings. I became truly alive. I ran for the joy of running. I read books that lead me to read other books. I lost myself in music. I sung christmas carols while walking in the mall. For all those little things I now experience that make me normal I thank myself...............Amen Tim

That was hilarious! Right on!
All this time I thought God was just a spoiled brat playing with his earthling toys. I thought he needed a good spankin' and a lecture about the sanctity of life from his parents.
Thanks for clearing that up for us.

Don't buy CD's from supermarkets.Please.
by sleepy in.
for music lovers everywhere.. don't buy cd's from supermarkets.please.thats an order!.
there just been a report in britian that supermarkets are increasing their share of the recorded music market by selling cheap cd's.. why is this bad news?surly if you can get a cd from tescos for a tenner instead of 15 quid this is good?noooooooooooooooooo.. i say that again , no.. lets look at it.supermarkets can sell cd's and other items cheap because they make a profit on the other goods you buy.they use the offer of cheap cd's to entice you into their store.they only sell chart cd's otherwise they will make a loss on more obscure music which won't sell in bulk.. if you love music and wish to buy music or listen to good new music in the years to come, you are shooting yourself in the foot if you buy your music from supermarkets at a lower price.it is a false ecomony.this is why.when you hear a piece of music you like in a few years time which is not chart music and go to you local independant or specialist music store you will see a big sign on the door ,closed.they will have shut down because lack of sales when all their customers went to the cheapo market ment they could no longer survive.. they had to charge more for music becausea.it was the only thing they sellb.they stocked all types of music and would not make money on some bands and would make up for it with more popular bands.cthey could get the music you wanted on special order if they didn't have what you were looking ford.they had knowledge of music and bands which was readily available to you if needed.and a good few other things.. you are not saving anything if you buy cheap.if you like music you need to support the peole who want to supply it,and offer quality, which in the case of music includes choice, not just marketed corporate crap, not those in it for a quick buck.they need to charge more but have a far greater range of product, one which a supermarket will never have,ever.. you have been warned.

Ok,
I'll admit that I own a collection of about 1500 songs downloaded from the internet. I will also admit that I own over 300 CDs that I purchased (most from pawn shops). I will use the internet to find obscure songs that are no longer readily available in record stores. Very often I will download music I have never heard of before and fall in love with it. Next thing you know I'm in the record store buying the latest cd because I can't get all the songs. Last time that happened it was Norah Jones. Such a sweet voice.
The record industry has only to come up with a standard for Mp3s and they would make a fortune. I don't feel sorry for them or the artist. The artist could make a great living singing live if they are that good. If the price is too high for cds people will find other ways to listen to the music they like (for less).
There is no reason for a music cd to cost even close to the price of a Movie dvd. Movies cost much more to produce. They spend much more on promotion and the disc itself costs more. If you argue that movies cost less because they've made their money at the box office then why can't musicians make their money on tour?
Hmmmm

That was tooo funny!
Any suggestions on a reply for this one I just got today??
From: "MRS. M. SESE SEKO" < [email protected]> | This is Spam | Add to Address Book To: [email protected] Date: Thu, 5 Sep 2002 18:02:05 +0100 Subject: URGENT ASSISTANT NEEDED Dear friend,
I am Mrs. Sese-seko widow of late President Mobutu Sese-seko of Zaire,
now known as Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). I am moved to write
you this letter.
This was in confidence considering my present circumstance and
situation. I escaped along with my husband and two of our sons James Kongolo
and Nzanga out of Democratic Re
public of Congo (DRC) to Abidjan,
Coted'ivoire where my family and I settled, while we later moved to settled in
Morroco where my husband later died of cancer disease. However, due to
this situation we decided to change most of my husband's billions of
dollars deposited in Swiss bank and other countries into other forms of
money coded for safe purpose because the new head of state of (Dr) Mr
Laurent Kabila has made arrangement with the Swiss government and other
European countries to freeze all my late husband's treasures deposited
in some european countries.
Hence, my children and I decided laying low in Africa to study the
situation till when things gets better. Like now that president Kabila is dead
and the son taking over (Joseph Kabila). One of my late husband's chateaux in Southern France
was confiscated by the french government, and as such I had to change my
identity so that my investment will not be traced and confiscated.I
have deposited the sum Eighteen Million United State
Dollars (US$18,000,000,00.) With a security company for safe keeping.
What I want you to do is to indicate yourinterest that you can assist us
in receiving the money on our behalf, so that I can introduce you to my
son (Kongolo) who has the out modalities for the claim of the said funds.
I want you to assist in investing this money, but I
will not want my identity revealed.I will also want to acquire
real/landed properties and stock in multi-national companies and to engage in other safe and
non-speculative investments as adviseby your good self. May I at this point
emphasize the high level of confidentiality, which this upcoming project demands,and hope you will
not betray the trust and confidence, which I repose in you.In conclusion, if you want to assist
us, my son (Kongolo) shall divulgeto you all briefs regarding this
project, tell you where the funds are currently being maintained and also discuss remuneration
for your services.For this reason kindly furnish us your contact
information,that is your personal telephone and fax number for validation
purpose and acknowledge receipt of this mail using the above email address.
Yours sincerely,
Mrs. Mariam M. Seseseko.

Why do men have nipples???
by Celtic ini always did wonder about this, i mean, what function do they have and further, if, just supposing that we are made in the image of god, does god himself have the equivalent of nipples?
any insights proffered?
celty .

I hate to disagree with such a great and well respected man like Kev but wanting your nips nipped doesn't make you gay any more than wanting your sac sipped. For the record, I think that gays like some of the same things that we do. Maybe because it feels good. LOL
