Hey people have you heard?
Some people stand like trees; without a word
And what that means is, that some people don’t talk.

Wow! Nobody has anything to talk about! I would not have posted today’s,
except Monday is Buy/Sell/Trade day, and since I haven’t posted that in
a week or so, I thought I’d better do it today. If I only have two or
three posts by Wednesday, I’ll hold off till Friday.

Hey! Just going to start off by saying my name is Jason, I’m from Mesa
Arizona and I completly love the femmes. I’ve even got a picture album
with all the covers(most are photo-copies though). I was a little upset
when they came to Tempe last year(er, 1996) because of the 18+ limit on
things.Anybody else from here as upset about that as I am? okee, with
that out of the way, i’d also like to throw out there just how much i
love American Music(yes, I mean both the list and the song). But I was
wondering, why is the list still listed on the offical homepage as Rock!
It has been a while since it got changed. okay, that’s my .04156 planck
masses at 14 degrees centrigrade(yeah, i meant the weight of 2 pennies
on the 3rd moon of saturn)

-Pat. Says: I wrote the homepage when the name changed; they must have
received so many letters they didn’t realize the utmost
importance of that one. If David is a subscriber and is
reading this, please alter the link! And while you’re at it,
could you put a scroll feature in the left hand column? I
disabled all my tool boxes and still could not see all the
choices. And while I’m at it, Mike, could you please change
your unofficial homepage? James says he doesn’t mind
constantly sending me subscription requests he is STILL
getting after 6 months, but it would be so much more
efficient if I could handle them all myself.
