Stuff My Friend Stacy Sent me through E-mail
Posted Apr 13, 2000
Much of my time is spent answering e-mails from My best Friend Stacy. She gets some really weird e-mails from other people alot of the time and because she has nothing better to do than annoy other people, she send them on to me...
Thank you, Stacy for providing me with much needed entertainment.
Ok the first part of this is one of the Poems that my friend usually puts on at the end of her e-mails. I was bored one day, so I "translated" it:
In search of love and music
"Why don't you just buy a stereo like everyone else?"
My whole life has been
"Oh yeah, I would consider 23 years a 'whole life'"
Illumination
"Well yes, you are illuminating, but I told you not to go near that reactor core."
Corruption
"Hmm,yeah,you're pretty corrupted alright...you've corrupted me..
And diving, diving, diving
"Well,you know with all that air in your head,it must be pretty hard to do that"....J/K
Diving down to pick up every shiny thing.
"Easily distracted you are, yes..."
she sent me this today actually
Take heart, anyone among you who believes you are Technologically Challenged, you "ain't seen nuthin" yet. This is
an excerpt from an Wall Street Journal article:
Compaq is considering changing the command "Press Any Key" to "Press Return Key" because of the flood of
calls asking where the "Any" key is.
Hmmm....What on earth possessed this guy to do this? I mean did he really think it was going to work?
Yet another Dell customer called to complain that his keyboard no longer worked. He had cleaned it by filling up his tub with soap and water and soaking the keyboard for a day, then removing all the keys and washing them individually.
This guy needs real help . I hope he finds some soon...
A Dell technician received a call from a customer who was enraged because his computer had told him he was "bad and an invalid." The tech explained that the computer's "bad command" and "invalid" responses shouldn't be taken personally.
and this that she sent a while ago:

Role-Playing
Posted Apr 10, 2000
Never try to discuss role-playing with someone who has no brain.
I was engaged for a short time. I tried to get him to role play in a game which he did eventually, but his orignal words words were when I said I sometimes roleplayed were "so like what, you play the "good cop" and I play the bad "speeder"?
I hate trying to explain things sometimes.But I did.
I had him think of a character that he would like to play. He came up with this wacko batman thing.
Him:Well, I was out with my oarents one day and they were killed in front of me, so I was raised by bats.
Me: Okay, so they were like vampire/mutant bats?
Him: No, regular bats.
Me: (thinking I could do maybe do this, without going insane and in all honsety I did see a movie about something like this once) okay so you get turned into a bat?
Him: No, I stay a human, but because I am intelligent, I steal things for my new adoptive bat family, I steal food for them and create suits and gear to help me, out of some of the stuff I steal...
Me: Okay, so you live near the bats..okay I guess we can work with that..
Him: No, I live in the same cave.
Me: You can't possibly be raised by bats! All that Amonia in there would kill an eight year old within an hour!
Him: Hey,this is what i came up with. I like bats and I'm not finished yet.
Me
raising an eyebrow) Alright, allright, I'll humor you. So how long did you stay there?
Him: Well until I was a teenager and then one nioght while i was out stealing for my family, I was hit by a bus and-
Me: A teenager? What did the bats teach you how to drive? (I start cracking up at this point imaging dear old father bat trying to teach his adopted son how to drive...)
Him: (ignoring my outburst) I was hit by a bus where I went straight to heck and the devil there said he would give me powers if I would-
Memy eyes watering with tears of laughter,look up at him and start another fit of histerics, for some reason the idea of someone in a bat costume getting hit by a bus struck me as amusing.) What? You're doing a spawn character? You can't do that!
Him: Why not?
Me: Cause it's not that dark a game for one thing!(it should be mentioned here that the game is a very lighthearted Sailor Moon rpg game. Not really any place for spawn like characters.)
Him: Oh. Well,I want to be a bat.
melaughing) wel okay you can be a bat type charcter, but nothing like spawn is allowed.
I let him play as a negaverse agent, His charcter spent most of the time sleeping upside down in a closet and wearing a bat suit looking thingy. I will admit that I didn't really run it very well But it was funny.

Items in My Collection
Posted Apr 7, 2000
Yesterday I found A Siefer figurine to complete my collection for the Final Fantasy 8 figurine set. I am so happy. I have them all lined up on my shelf trying to knock each other out. Except for Siefer himself because I forgot to bring him in from the car and My Brother took my car to work. So now Siefer is out working as an electrician today. I hope he dosen't get in to any trouble.
I have this thought that my brother might take him out for a beer after work.
I also have a Card Captor Sakura figurine. It's very cute. And pink.
I have tried to avoid the evil that is pokeman ut I have discovered that little by little it is wearing me down. I have a desk set from it, a little bulbasaur that is a pencil sharpner, and a pikachu that is a stapler, I thought it was cute and now pokemons seemed to have started infesting my house. I have started watching the show, but I am compensating for that by rooting for the bad guys. Team Rocket. They are stylish and try to wreak havok on a daily basis. Go Team Rocket.
I save just about everything I come across. I have a special candle that I recieved for my birthday at Seven years old. It is a smiling mouse, with a blue bowtie holding a yellow happy birthday sign. I don't think i would have been that happy looking if I knew my purpose in life was to be burned into melted goo.
I have a ceramic E. t. that one of my dad's friends at work gave to me for some reason or other.He sits, gathering dust,with a blue ribbon in a choke hold around his neck. Staring out at the world, nestled among a corsage and Star Wars toys from taco bell.
I have this horrible, ugly, little shell scuplture that a friend of mine gave me one day to "celebrate the fact that we were friends for a year". It is one of the ugliest things I have ever seen in my life. I have kept it only because I did not want to hurt her feelings.
I have raggedy anne and andy things that have been signed by the grandson of her creator. It was kinda neat. She sits with a green parrot and an empty bottle of root beer that I kept becasue i thought the bottle was neat looking.
Oh! One of my most prized possesion is a little bat from the movie Anastasia, (Bartok, I think?) I bought it at burger King, and When you press it it says stuff. I think it is supposed to say stuff from the movie and it does, but it sounds like other things. I hear
"Hey Scratch, bring me a tequilla"
when I think it is supposed to be saying something like:
"Hey, They're getting ready to kill her."
Its quite fun to play around with actually.Loads of fun.
On cleaning a collection shelf:
My shelf chock full of numerous things I have collected really needs to be dusted. I don't dust mainly because of the fact that I am allergic to dust and get really really sick when i try to, but The shelf is worrying me. I swear I heard it groan the other day, and I was sure something up there moved on it. I have not dusted it in two years. And sitting here under it, I get this eerie feeling that it is watching me...
Well I don't want to reveal all of my things just yet. Check Back later for more fun!
