Happy New Year to those to which this would apply. You know who you are.

An Acccccousssstic Hallowwweeeennnn!!!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Put me down for that show in Milwaukee. I think I got bad seats, but at
least I’ll be there.

Also, me and my girlfriend are gonna dress up. Are we sure Gordon’s
doing the voice for the Rugrats movie? And which voice? I’m gonna be
him.

-Pat. Says: Yes, Gordon is contributing his voice. I think there’s a
song which will be sung by a lot of people, and Gordon will
be one of them. I don’t think he will actually be a
character.

Milwaukee
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I’m going to the show in Milwaukee on Halloween. (Although I have
decided that train is much more suited for my fear of heights than
plane.) I’m dressing up. I’m not sure as what yet. Maybe a kitty, or
maybe a french maid (oohh la la). Maybe I will dress like a normal
human being for once. That would freak my father out. : )

My first two screen names on AOL were Violent24 and
Femmes24. When I was Violent24 I used to recieve numerous
un-wanted and disgusting e-mails and “instant-messages” from people who
were into some very kinky stuff.

Hey fellow femmesters!

Just some trivia on Pat’s pet naming topic.
My 3-year old Godson is named Erik Gano Pettersson, after me and Gordon.
Ain’t that sweet!

<< AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Do not mention such
blasphemous hacks as Leonardo DiCaprio in the same breath, >>

leo did a great job in total eclipse…..

i wonder if the femmes will cover a hendrix song???..this post is not a
good post ehh??
pat make it look pretty….add stuff about gordon’s eyes and brian’s
height and stuff about guitar strings and picks…make me look good…..

KyleTSouza

-Pat. Says: I was impressed by Leo in Basketball Diaries. Hard to
believe it, but methinks there may actually be some talent
behind all the hype and teenybop sighs. Ok, Amazing trivia
suggested by Kyle. Gordon’s eyes are blue. Very much so, but
you have to see him in person to appreciate them. Brian is
6’2″, which makes him shorter than most of my uncles, but
the same height as my father. I won’t tell you what I made
up for Kyle using guitar strings and picks, and I don’t
have to make him look good.

RE: You Can Dress Them Up…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
<< Space Balls anyone
Brian – Barf (played by John Candy in the movie)
Gordon – Dark Helmet (played by Rick Moranis)
Guy – Princess Vespa (played by Daphne Zuniga) >>

i think we should dress gordon up as yougurt. but i think the other
ideas are right on target! great idea 🙂

Hey boys and girls. I know I haven’t written in a long ass time but,
please blame that on 16 hours of college and my two jobs. I also seem
to be dealing with a string of tragedies in my family (an uncle died
July 10 and his mother (my grandmother) has been given until Sunday at
the very latest (this is on Friday this is being written). So, with all
this going on, free time is limited. But anyway. I did happen to be at
a used/new CD place yesterday and I got to expand my disc collection by
one more…Why Do Birds Sing. I ended up paying $6.31 for it. There’s
only about 3 discs I don’t have now (I think) and I check this CD store
all the time so I’m getting there. Woohoo. I’m excited…but would you
believe I haven’t even had a chance to listen to it yet??? Hehe..i’m
retarded. Ya all have yerselves a good week and have mercy on my
soul….

The Crow Soundtrack
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is probably going to seem like a really strange (or stupid… take
your pick) question, but my boyfriend has the soundtrack to the crow and
the first time I heard it, I said “That’s the Violent Femmes!” I am a
fan and have been for a couple of years but I don’t own all of their
albums and haven’t heard every song ( by any stretch of the imagination)
and I had a few questions about that song. The first thing I want to
know is what is the name of it…(my boyfriend has somehow misplaced the
case and hasn’t found it in over a year). I am also curious if this was
written especially for the movie or was it an old song that they put on
the soundtrack…like I said although I am a huge fan I am also a cheap
one and it has taken me over three years to acquire the five cds that I
currently own. I’m sorry if this is something that has already been
discussed to death…I have months worth of newsletters in my inbox that
I am working on.

-Pat. Says: No question is ever stupid if it leads to enlightenment.
The song is Color Me Once, and I’m not sure but I think I
read that the song was written previously, and when they
were asked to do a song for the movie, it just seemed
perfect. Correct me if I’m wrong. Welcome back.
