Yo Alicat! Have a choccy smiley - fish
Hey Fairly Strange, have you visited my homepage recently? I've got a journal entry on Buffy and am going to write a guide entry soon, and I've got a journal entry too. We just saw "Anne" this week and are about to see "Dead Man's Party" this week, the one with the Nigerian mask. Angel is on Sky at the moment but I haven't got it so I'm waiting for the BBC to finally get round to airing it, along with Roswell High which I haven't seen at all but I found out the plot which appeals to me, I like The Faculty and , duh, Buffy, and the plot is very similar to 3rd Rock from the Sun.

Katsy, darling. How are you? Thanks for the smiley - fish. There's a lovely party for you to check out. URL http://www.fallsview.com/English/pages/fallscam.shtml
We're partying there until the 16th (at least), which is my birthday. You've GOT to meet Coely. She's one extraordinary fish. smiley - smiley, and she's allowed me to become 5 years younger this birthday. smiley - smiley Hope to see you soon. smiley - smiley

THANK YOU ALICAT !!! Perhaps one day I'll be as wise as you!?!
I'd sing Happy Birthday to you however...I could'nt find the right
pitch if I were to use dolphin echo location! No one believes that
I sing beatufully in the shower...maybe it's the soap in my mouth,
I'll have to give it a try, 'on dry land', as it were! So, hope you'll
settle for A Big Hug & Best Wishes from me to you on your B.D.!!!

See, here's something that came from nothing...not long ago I'd never
heard of our alicat...now I'm sending B.D. hugs!!! XXXXXX

Have one for me dear! I started going backwords, age wise when I hit:
OH No...a band of roving gypsies are stopping me from writing any more
they won't let me tell you I'm...I'll be okay. They've just found my stash of mold...they like it!

Happy Days & Better Nights! WINK! Pandora

I have returned from... Well, wherever I was!

Welcome back Sookie!!! I missed you!!! If you're serious about Break
Dancing I think you will want to find someone who's REALLY good at it.
We would'nt want to call you Sookie Broken Hip! HA! I tried it. But I'm happiest dancing in a man's arms, letting him do ALL the work! Not long ago two fellows use to take me Ballroom dancing in a huge place
called Castle on the Hill. It was wonderful! Big as a warehouse. I love to waltz & my favorite is the Jitterbug, ever try it? It's loads of fun! And I love Salsa dancing...probably from all the time I've spent in the tropics. My favorite part of Break Dancing is when you spin around on the floor on your backside! CAUTION: beware of splinters! It can be very embarrASSSSing to ask for assistance to rid your bum of wooden particles, please don't ask how I know, just take my word for it! Good luck in your newest endeavor!
Cha-Cha-Cha, Pandora

Congratulations, Kat. I'm impressed. I'll check it out as soon as I leave here. smiley - smiley Pandora, thanks for the lovely B.D. wish. If you would like to ballroom dance, you'll have to check out the party at the Sheraton. We've all gotten dressed up and moved into the ballroom. We're at http://www.h2g2.com/forumframe.cgi?forum=18878&thread=46222
We're running a little low on men at the moment, but Bear is more than happy to dance with all of us. smiley - smiley

Thanks for the invitation to your party! I love parties. And I get a real kick out of dressing to the nines! As for dancing, I can always
bring my 'virtual' dance partner. He's a cross between George Clooney
and Carey Grant...not bad huh?
Now I'll go 'virtual' shopping to find just the right gift. Of course
since I don't know you well, I'll have to guess what you might like!
Party On!!! Pandora

Everyone thinks breakdancing is so dangerous, but u do it on a mat, not on concrete, so there is no big deal!

Well, then if nothing does not exist, then how can something come from it?

Nothing -

n no thing; not anything; nothingness.

So it obviously is possible to define nothing. The complete lack of anything, thats like saying that we can't define darkness because no one has ever seen it, but we know it exists because it is a lack of light.

Hi Alicat! Thank you for the wonderful party. Sorry I got so sloshed! I still have'nt found one shoe! I'm not sure if it was the
martinis or the fihies...You looked so pretty! Did you like the signed CD Pete gave me for you? He will try to escort me next year, if we have enough notice. I was happy to be able to have him sign it for you
since it's been years since I'd seen him, I was'nt sure he'd remember me...but BOY DID HE!!! WHEEEEE!!! He's just TOO cool!

Mac was'nt working right for awhile...I've lost hours of work! I did a new Home Page, only to loose it! RRRrrrrrr!!!

Well, it's off to dream land...let me know if you find my other shoe
(grey ballet slipper) it goes so nicely w/the gown I was wearing!
And just remember...like a good wine, you're not getting older, you're
getting better! (You just have to keep the cork tight! You do that by
keeping it moist! SMILE-WINK!) Pandora

P.S.
I practiced being a mime ALL the way home on the plane! Why do 'I'
always get the two year old kicking the back of my seat & pulling my hair?!? Next time I'm flying first class!!!

DOMINO (caught the deluge in a paper cup)

Have any of you read King Lear? I suggest you do. When we talk about 'nothing,' we take it in the context that nothing equals something. Perhaps if we take it in the context that nothing equals non-existance, which follows parallel to existance then we can begin to analyse it. The word nothing in itself is something, so it is a complete contradiction to itself from its initial meaning. Outlooks of the word nothing change in different points in time. Can the past be described as nothing, as it no longer exists? But it exists in our memory. Perhaps nothing has to be something (material) in order to be nothing. I'm going to irresponsibly plug my guide entry now, but perhaps in shedding some light we should first look at how we view existence, and unwittingly try to cope with it. I must possibly be the most fun guy in the world!

Alicat, thank you! I'm soo glad you found my shoe!?! I hope I did'nt strip or put a lampshade on my head!!! So glad you liked Pete's CD.
Next time I'll try to eat something before I hit the martinis! I think I've had it with B.D. parties for awhile...my friend Stuart vidio tapped his party. I still haven't seen it...they're passing it around our Village for entertainment! AHHHHHHH!!! I am the MAIN source of the entertainment! It was the night I discovered 'jello shots'. While watching my pal open gifts...'they' placed (no kidding) about 50 shots
on my table! There were 4 different types. I remember spinning around during a dance, then I did'nt feel so well...luckily I had someone to fly...I mean drive me home! EVER TURN GREEN?!? LOL!
E-You Around, Pan
