there are like a billion questions in the archive.

questions

Why do girls make me want to bury my head in the dirt?
-JOhn
Because they have hearts of coal and don't deserve you.

so seeing as you're filling out forms for me so I can goto college...i was curious...hows that coming along?
-Kage
I'll tell you one thing--if you don't get in, I'm not to blame. I explained Harry Potter succinctly. Would you ever seriously consider becoming a pizzatarian? Inquiring minds must know.
-Tori Spektor
Well, I just considered it, and I would not. I don't even like pizza that much. I mean, I'll have it if it's there, but it's not something I ever really want.

I was wondering why I came across this site while looking up the names of people I know. I looked up my girlfriend's name [Lauren] and came across this site. Never did find anything on her. Which I suppose is a good thing.
-Andrew
Maybe because it's a popular name and I know about a thousand Laurens.

Are you feeling okay? (hugs)
If you could have one super power, what would it be and what would your villian be?
Example : Batman, The Joker.. Or yes.. No yes...
-Nyx
At the moment, yeah, I feel okay. In general, no, I feel pretty awful most of the time. Why don't you live here anymore.
Obviously my super power would be to be a wizard and my villain would be Lord Voldemort. I say his name because fear of a name only increases fear of the thing itself, and I ain't never scared.

do you think it will ever be appropriate for me to touch you?
will you go and see a movie with me this weekend?
will you run through the hay fields with gravania, tub-cat and I? (there are no ticks right now)
get back to me sometime.
-lauren margaret elizabeth molly is my boy murphy
no. no. no. no.

what high school do you go to?
-k
north.

where are the pictures from the potter palooza?
-cho
Oh they're so tedious to upload.... I haven't sent them to the dementor, either.

did you know im too scared to talk to you now? You think I havent been there for you...but I now think theres no way I'll ever please you or make you happy. So now I dont know what to do.
-katy
Cry me a river, Cho, you're my boy.

What colleges are you looking at in PA?
-Ashley
UPenn on Friday and Villanova on Saturday.

(This question is for the girls) If you were an animorph which one would you be? Cassie or Rachel? I'd pick Cassie because I'm an animal lover
-Emily
Back when Steph and I used to play Animorphs on the playground or in her front yard, I was always Rachel. I reckon it's because I am very abrasive.

And why do you LEAAAAVE these stories UUUUUNfinished - my cheshire cat doorstop, with tears in your e-eyes? And why do you LOOOOK when you've already found me? And what did you find that would leave youu-uuu walkin by?
-Tori
I found you with another woman. That's why and what.

mrs. tarpey is going to lose her job? says who??
-ashley
Says our suck-ass school because the old people in this town won't pay taxes to ensure a good education for us. Motherfuckers.

hee i like that picture. i love spring. is that a real bunny in the garden, or is it like a little... thing.. garden decoration?
-steph
It is a garden statuette that has suffered some sort of accident, though I think we should free our bunnies and let them hippityhop in the flowers. Unfortunately, either coyotes would eat them or the cats would. Especially Mo. My mom said yesterday, "Mo (pansy that he is) was sitting next to the tulips today."

The Narration that Just Occured in my Head #5
Pretending is a waste of tiempo, tiempo durante que debes estar escribiendo tu novela.
i've just decided to take that to heart.
this isn't a question yet... so... want to do something next weekend/tomorrow/whenever you are free?
-katie kerr
YES PLEASE.

Your half of the golf-course walk is more in the open than mine. So if the golfers ever saw me - I was not aware of it. But man, we envisioned some quality films. I need to find The Lions and the Elves. Do you remember, I think we were in 4th grade, that movie a bunch of us planned on making? Most of it would be shot on the playground which we would pretend was a ship. And then we'd go to my living room and backyard for some shots. The Island of Chams, I think it was called. I played some sailor dude whose Mom died when I was 11 and told Elaine that (she was the fair maiden). You played a mysterious wizard who lived on the island and you said some kind of incantation at some point.
-me again
I DO REMEMBER THAT. It's been added to the list. What a fantastic script, good job on that mate. Please search for the Lions and the Elves, it was incre�ble.

That's a great story. But don't you remember that I thought you were a marvelous singer? You once tried to say you weren't and I made an angry bull face that made you laugh - we were on my old pullout couch in the basement, remember?
I bet people have heard me singing too. In fact - Julie Murphy heard me once and I immediatley stopped and tried to pretend it didn't happen. Also, when I was about 8, I went climbing trees near the Murphy's house, in my Puc costume, and then she walked onto the driveway and said hi. And I was like ummm I'm dressed like an elf. So I decided, for some reason, that it would be best if I stayed in character and acted like it was normal. So I shouted, "I am Stephanie! Conquerer of the Neighborhood!" She never lets me forget.
-the conquerer
Hahaha that is a fantastic story. Why would you be in your Puc costume? Unfortunately, you are much closer to neighbors than I am, so they can catch you. Hey, when you would walk over on the golf course, would you ever get caught? I'd duck in the bushes, and I knew they'd see me, but I'd pretend I didn't exist. And yes, I know, you told me I could sing, but I never believed you because I couldn't. And that was a wicked funny face. You like, huffed at me.

Did you know you don't have to worry, pet? Over in Eire, we don't really eat corned beef an cabbage? Deedley do.
-Mr. [Tori] O'Toole
That's what Paul Rankin said, too.

Dear Molly, will you ever get a livejournal? This question used to be wicked long with lots of reasons and praises and other things but Harry Potter kept telling me to try to keep it short. er. But yeah. So? No [peer] pressure or anything.
-Yours
-steph this question's too long
No, I will never get a livejournal. Don't worry about screening me--let's just say that I've got the password of a mutual friend and I read eeeeeveryone's secret stuff. Suckers.

Hey, my dog Harley does that too. She's crazy and hides behind snowpiles and barks when people are going by, and people walk faster. She hides alot. In conclusion, do you remember Vitamin C? Because I found that CD today, and I really like Unhappy Anniversary.
This turned into more of a story than the question I planned.
-Maggie
I remember Vitamin C, but not fondly. Occassionally that awful song (the one that became the anthem of sixth grade, the we will still be friends forever, one) gets stuck in my head. Sux. I love dogs.

Did you know I think you are incredibly creative and awesome and somedays I wish I could write as good as you do? And I bet you already know that - [DAMN] THE MAN - NHS committees live in Victorian England. [bastards?]
-Tori L. Griffin - the L stands for "someday"
Tori, I would marry you in an instant. And listen to me, you're an amazing writer. I mean this with every fiber of my being. You are so good, and there have been many instances in school where Lauren and I have just been talking, and NDA or something will come up, and immediately at the mention of your name one of us goes God Tori is a good writer. And I am so happy that you're going to the Brown program. You are going to be the best there and they'll all pee their pants.

dearest molly s. griff, what do you think of when you look at the stars? My mind races when I do. Weird question I know, but what do you think of them, if you really think of them at all?
-Sheriff Lauren
...okay you asked for it.
Timon, ever wonder what those sparkly dots are up there?
Pumbaa, I don't wonder; I know.
Oh. What are they?
They're fireflies that got stuck up in that bluish-black thing.
Oh, gee. I always thought they were balls of gas burning billions of miles away.
Pumbaa, with you, everything's gas.
that's what.

COOL! site..hehe http://www.womir.com/porn/ - look at my free collection of beuty and passion
-Terry Dennis
oh cool sweet, i've been looking for a new porn site to visit. do you know nancy nipple?

and by "how was the show" i really just mean, wasn't steve adorable/hilarious?
-steph again
hahaha i was laughing so hard in my head when i saw him. and what you said your reaction was when you met him matched mine: "WOW you're gay."

In response to Katie's saying that Harley, like Greta, runs around in the snow - Jinx also is completely in love with the snow. So is Rugby, although he has a bit more difficult, being Napoleon and all. Brady on the other hand - cries when he sees snow and we had to dig him a little peeing-space on the porch during the blizzard.
In any case, how did you like the show? I was very happy that you came.
-steph
I liked the show very much. I've never seen so many tap dancers before in my life.

harley does the SAME THING in the snow as greta. what's the flippin deal? i think they are eskimoes.
-katiker
or rather, they think they are eskimoes.

are you familiar with the artwork of kurt halsey? because it's fucking great and he loves cats. and .. you love cats.. so.. common ground, you know. anyway, check him out: http://kurthalsey.com/
-katiker
I am familiar with him, though I haven't really looked at his work. I love cats.

have you considered having a reply page of sorts so that i can comment on every entry because i want to. ....? (and my comment would be that i love narrations that occur in people's heads and that conversation was hilarious and that school really does suck cock)
-steph
Of course I've considered it. The problem is, I use Geocities, and they don't allow you to set up a comment system or any FTP. I need to buy my own dotcom and pay to host a site if I want anything like that. And I need a job in order to pay for a domain. And, well.

Molly, will you go out with me, keep it in the family...I love...[you] (that girl.)
this was in response to you breaking up with lauren.
-lauren's mother
I love you to death, Mrs. Murphy, and I would go out with you in a heartbeat, but I could never come between you and DOUG. Hey have your wedding on a school day, that way I can skip school AND celebrate the blessed union between you and Sir Douglas of Maine. I love you.

because don't you remember when cooper day sang it ( badly but adorably ) and the tele because he ( whoa ) liked the decemeberists? what a guy.
p.s. i will box your ears and leave you here stripped bare. O.K.?
-i'm glad you enjoy the bachelor and the bride
i fucking love cooper day and how i wish he would return. alas, checking in with the abc website, it appears they have deleted all memory of the show and it probs won't come back. and please don't strip me bare because it just snowed a little bit and i hate being cold unless inside i am warm.

listen baby girl, i was wondering if youre ever gona post our list of important events of 2004..k? thanks :)
-kage
it's too late now, it won't even be funny. i'll send them to you sometime.

here's a good question why am i so stupid as to forget to check this site often? it was nice seeing you again by the way.
-john
You probably forget to check this site often because it is not very good, and so that makes you not stupid for forgetting. It was lovely seeing you again, and you better come back again soon.

what are you favorite words?
-the one with the quill
I am currently in the process of creating this list. Someday soon I will post it. In the meantime, here is a sneakpeek: holiday.

will you find neverland with me?....and johnny depp?
-katy
If it is still in theatres, yes. If not, we'll rent it when it comes out and watch it while sitting on a couch. Together.

Aren't you elated that you are Mrs. JC4?
-b
It's funny because he's not even our teacher. I liked that note you gave me though, the there's a ring on your finger and the baby's due out (JC4's) one. Wouldn't that be weird? Weird.

Am I really Mrs. Grint?
-b
What do you think that Survivor ring stands for? It stands for his red hair, obviously. Your children will be strawberry blondes. And I'd like to babysit them all, if you wouldn't mind.

What house would you be in?
-b
I don't know what to say. I'm pretty smart and like learning, so I'd say Ravenclaw. But. There is the last name. I think (this is just a hypothesis, remember) but I think that I'm a descendant of Godric Gryffindor. Nono, wait for it. Because as JK Rowling explained, Gryffindor just means Golden Griffin. Which means that he's also a Griffin. So you'd think that descendants would go in their ancestor's founded house, you know? But I'm not particularly brave. Not at all. I don't know. Everyone wants to say they're a Gryffindor and I feel like I'm just jumping on the bandwagon, but I mean, he is my Great-Great-Great-Great Uncle Godric...

If I was a wizard what house would I be in?
-b
Ravenclaw and it's because you are ab. fab. and brilliant. Ravenclaw and Gryffindor are on pretty good terms though, so I think you visiting Ron won't be a problem. Just give Cho Chang a right good slap for me.

Do you believe in magic?...stupid question I know.
-b
I believe that magic would be the coolest thing in the world, but I know it doesn't exist. I have to keep telling myself this because if it did exist then that means that monsters exist too, like vampires and dolphins, and I'm afraid of everything so I can't handle that. But if only the good magic was real.

Do you believe in soul mates?
-b
No, but then, when your self-esteem is this low, you don't even believe in the future.

Do you think I am amusing?
-b
I think you're extremely amusing and always enjoy time spent with you. I look forward to any plans we make and then I write about it in my diary when I get back home.

Do you think people will love me in the future?
-b
I think people love you in the present, and unless you go around slaughtering everyone's first born child, I think people will love you forever.

molly will you drink hot chocolate with me for the rest of my life?
-b
You ready B? I will, but Liam will have to join us sometime. You will understand once I send you my story and write the new chapter. But I understand in my head.

can we have a sleepover please? that's all i really want in life, a sleepover with you guys.
-katiker
well what with steph's birthday coming up (november 12 is it? i never remember autumn birthdays) i'm betting there will be one. because i'm going to tell her to have one. since you know. last year was bombbbbbbbbb.

why does katy guestttt get to ask all the questions? and ps. what's all this about coming around to autumn, sir?
-Tori has two smileys
Because Katy Guestttt cares and is inquisitive. And I was only kidding, because I don't like autumn because I had to stand out at the bus this morning and my nose froze in half and I slip on the pine needles going down the driveway and I don't like the color of the sky at dusk because it reminds me of ninth grade for whatever reason. It should be noted that what I really meant was maybe I like winter.

Hey I want in on this sleepover plan. And let's not forget the part where we watch BONEMAKER. - and that is pronounced joo-LEE because she's friend, you know? Anyway... Oh, **** this isn't a question. Um... ! This isn't actually a question but rather a command. You must see Lillean's puppy!! I don't know when she's coming back to Plymouth again - well mayeb this weekend actually, but as soon as she can and you can come over.. do it. Or I'll take a picture or something because it is this little tiny ball of white fluff and he is quiet and cuddly and hops around on his little feet and he is soooo cute. He makes me weak. His name is Nico. That means Cat. (To go with Lillean's other little white fluffy animal, the kitten Surrey (wich means Mouse)). Btw I like the duck call.
-steph
Number One: Bonemaker is not pronounced joo-LEE because she's friend, you know. Number One and a half: Nearly everyday in English class Garvey writes "M is for BeastMaster Molly on the board. Number Two: A puppyyyyyy? Can I see? Ring me up next time she's down because wait a second. Hasn't she had this puppy for a while? Like, since the summer? Because I seem to remember Elizabeth bringing us home from the bus stop once with Rugby and as we were turning onto Jordan Rd. she was talking about how Nico meaning Cat is perfect because Surrey means Mouse. Or maybe she was only planning on getting it back then. And by the way, you still didn't ask a question.

when are we learning to knit? -he was a k8r boy
Number One: what a gay name. Number Two: Next time you and I have a sleepover, we should first hit up Joann's. We'll get all our yarns (mine will be maroon and gold), our needles, and I wonder if they have the Complete Idiot's Guide to Knitting. I bet they do. (Speaking of which, I'm going to make an entry about the Idiot's guide Katie and I made last year.) Then we'll go to one of our houses and do our best. And then we'll call the boiz. If we go to my house, maybe I'll even let you borrow one of the closet men.

did you know its katiker's birthday soon?
-k8t
I did know, but motherbitch it's my BAND JAMBOREE that day. How freaking stupid is that. It's Katiker day, not Ifreakinghateband day, gosh.

in the future, i want to own a loft in the city...boston in particular...where do you want to live when you get older?
-you down with KLG? yeah you know me
When I get older, to be honest, I want to live right here. I would redo the entire house since it's sort of falling apart, but I want to own this house because I really love its location. Plus my kids could laugh and play on the golfcourse when the sprinklers come on at 6PM just like I did, and then I'd live my life through them. I'd come visit you in Boston all the time of course, though I'd probs go by train because I can't even imagine driving through the city, it's too crazy. Cities are too much for me. But if you do get a loft, you have to make it colorful like on Real World.

i miss you...can we have a sleepover soon? with food the ouiiji board and calling boiz...and as soon as they pick up and say "hello?" we quickly slam the phone on the reciever and giggle till our tummiez hurt?
-kate
for word, we haven't had a sleepover in ages. and then. after we call the boiz we can sit in rocking chairs and knit scarves and tell all our biggest crushes and not go to sleep until six in the mo'nin?

do the other 17 guys in your closet get jealous of tom?
-kate
if they do, they shouldn't; he was my first.

so how has tom been? is he still good in the sack or does he need viagra every once in awhile..
-katy
lmao. i can't say that here.

so is therapy lame or what? and let me tell you....its even more lame when youre FORCED.
-katy
Oddly enough, I liked it at first, but no longer. I have a feeling it will be easier to quit if you've been forced into it. Because after a while you can just be like, "Seriously, I do not want to go anymore, it makes me feel worse." And what can they say to that? If you chose to go, like me, and you want to stop going, there's just no getting out of it. It's like, "Great, you made me pay for three years of therapy and it didn't even help?" And you feel stupid for ever suggesting it.

Have you ever turned up your headphones so loud they blocked out the noise of everyone around you and pretended you were in a movie or something?
-Roar
I have. And I blink the way I think I should just in case I really am in a movie.

Why do you always have to be so dramatic?
-hmmm
Because I've been listening to Elliott Smith for months straight, why do you think, gosh.

Don't worry Molly, I knew those were daddy long legs. But that's not my question. I'm in room 206 right now taking my online class, and I have to do a "setting sketch." I've got this girl named Layla (what up Eric Clapton) and she's like a mix of my sister Carolyn and... someone else. So... where should she live? Thanks.
(P.S. Check out all of my apropriate spelling and grammar.)
-katiker
I don't understand... what is a setting sketch? Define it for me and I will comply.

Are those really daddy long legs in the picture... or just cracks or something? The resolution ain't so good.
-l
How dare you say such things about the resolution. And those are real daddy long legs, and they're still about. I opened the door the other day and there was one on the doorknob and two peeking around the corner. They freak me the fuck out.

how was that AP history test that all of you AP kids were studying for? what it as hard as you expected?
-ashley
I did not study for a week in preparation for this test. I studied for about a hour and a half the night before the test, and then throughout band class, the period before. I got an 84. Considering I was aiming for the 70s, I'd say the test was pretty easy. Now I'm actually taking notes for the next chapter--imagine how excelsior I will do on the next test. Probably like a 94. Heck yes.

how much of the spanish summer work have you done? because i am strugglin.
-katiekerr
Mmm as you said, I have done abuot 9%. I'm saving it all for the night before, of course. It can't be that hard? I mean, I imagine you're struggling because you lost your notes. But I've still got my notes... and like, I went through the packet and I knew what it was asking for, I just don't quite remember how to do it... Like, I forget subjunctive. And future. But once I look that shit up, I should be able to breeze right through it, right? And she's not going to kill us if we get a few wrong or just skip them... You best be in my class.

whao, I like the harry potter smiley. Anyway, I was going to say... I've asked a few people their opinions on the origin of the Hokey Pokey. For example, Jay thinks it began as an Aborigini ritual of poking gorillas (monkeys... hokeys... ). Jim says it began as a top secret government organization, not unlike the later agency, M.A.C.E.R.E.N.A. Liz says it all started one day when some kids started making fun of this fat kid in class and began poking him while teasing, and made a song about it called the Hokey Pokey. Any ideas?
-steph
Well clearly everyone else is wrong. As we all know, the word "hokey" refers to something that is artificial. My bet is, there was some girl who obviously had a fake butt or something, and everyone was making fun of her. So they'd "pokey" (aka poke) the "hokey" (aka the girl's fake butt) and then they'd "turn themselves around" so that she wouldn't know which one had violated her. But the harassers weren't too secretive about it, because they had these odd dance moves that accompanied the pestering. They would all form a circle around the girl, "put their left hands" towards her, "put their left hands" away from her, and then the "shaking it all about" bit would bother her a great deal. And that, my friend, is what it is really all about. [Disclaimer: that was quite possibly the worst thing I've ever made up.]

man, i remember jumping from the floor to the bed. i also remember bad closets. also, protip: with your ghost mentality, never ever, see "the ring". i mean it, seriously. that movie was nuts. anyway my question is this; when faced with two options, summer school reading, or a really good book that has nothing to do with school, which would you pick. (aslo remember school is rapidly approaching.)
-john
Too late: I already saw The Ring, I watched it with Steph and Katy when we were in Florida. I was a big wuss during that too, believe me. At the very beginning, when it shows that girl dead and disfigured in the closet, I had nightmares about that for weeks. I thought I was pretty brave for the most part, especially towards the end when I didn't get scared at all during the well scene. And I was very much relieved when that was all fixed; then Aidan just had to say she couldn't be stopped, didn't he? And I refused to watch the last twenty minutes, instead choosing to hide behind my knees and sing the Ataris; Katy said it was even scarier when I turned to her and said, "The blacktop singing me to sleep," because I said it in a scared voice. PS I love the names Noah and Aidan so that's how The Ring redeemed itself. As for your question, I feel like I'm missing something... a really good book that has nothing to do with school, right? Fortunately, we don't get summer school reading. Instead, we get a shitload of AP History work that is due five days from now and I am not even a quarter of the way finished. !!!!!!!! I really need to get on that.

oh man molly, i remember that autumn thingy. i wrote about like, a girl who sat on a hammock with her dog or something. and i remember describing her "glinting silver buttons" or something. and i remember reading your story but i dont remember the scribbled-out discussion. but none of this is a question. so my question is: i'm dropping latin once school starts... what should i take instead? i'm thinking maybe human phys, but i dont know. are you taking an elective i could take so that we might have more classes together?
-katie kerr
Well, band automatically takes my full year elective, so the only open spot I had was where health used to go. For that I chose Writing Workshop (which, incidentally, is exactly what I did at Emerson, so basically I am going to own that class). But aren't you already signed up for it? Come take band. It's a real blast. Today at band camp I got a rather nasty sunburn on my left forearm and it swelled up with liquid and I poked it all afternoon. I wish it would come back. So really, band and writing are my only electives. Human physics sounds boring... I've got arms, eyes, toes, what else do I need to know. Iunno bro.

ok first thing, if you like..highlight the harry potter face...it makes him look scared...see? go try it. err...i had a question to ask but now ive forgotten. Remember how Ms.Reis called me kathy lee? yeah..that pissed me off hardcore. obnoxious bitchy 6th grade teacher...anyways. heres a different question: how do you get rid of a sore butt?
-katy
To get rid of a sore butt? How the heck am I supposed to know? I am sore all over from walking backwards on my toes all week. Freaking hurts. In conclusion, no idea. It goes away.

What do you make of this whole accredidation thing about North? They claim that the cafeteria, library, band room, and teachers are inadequate. I'm angry. I'm going to write a letter. You should too. Please?
-Maggie
I don't know what accredidation is, but. The cafeteria sucks, the library is tiny, the band room is stifling and too small for as many people and instruments as we have, and the teachers are fine. Nuts to people, just clean the cafeteria floor, work out the ventilation, and leave my school be.

Aw man I love Ender too. I don't know why John didn't know of you love for him. Dink was cool, yeah.. He was in Ender's Game, he was an older kid that sorta befriended Ender during that period when he had no friends, I believe... He was that kid that like.. went floating naked in the weightless room? And was like "screw the teachers! Screw the war!" You know? That's my memory of him anyway... They kept promoting him and he kept refusing cuz he didn't want to be their pawn. Unlike Ender, who aims to please everyone... Poor, sweet little Ender.. lol. Hmm.. this isn't a question... Um.. Yes well.. Remember Dink now?
-steph
Haha why do I not remember him floating naked? Actually, they were naked a lot. No one seemed to have a problem with it. I remembered him, I just... never thought much of him. Except in Ender's Shadow Bean was like, "Dink, Petra, don't you realize you love each other?" I think. I might be making that up. I mostly just paid attention to Ender... Forgive me. The three of us, we'll have to have a big discussion. Because I like talking about Ender and all his adventures.

i find it hard to believe that your love of ender wiggin slipped under my radar for so long? Ender's game is one of the best books on the face of the planet. also, Dink Meeker (despite his name) is almost as cool as ender.
-john
Ohoho. Oh. Oh I love Ender Wiggin. Like. I am in love with him. We actually had a discussion about Ender a while ago in a chat... It was after I had read Ender's Game and was planning on reading the rest. Speaker For The Dead is probably my favorite because his character is so awesome there. I cried in Children of the Mind... mrewr. I don't know, Dink never struck me as a character who was prominent enough to have much of a personality. You'll have to remind me of his characteristics. We'll also have to discuss Ender sometime.

How do I put chat rooms, games or other crap on my website? I've just created my own, and because I'm 12, I don't really know how to put mine together.
-Kelby Hicks
If you're using Geocities, I'm pretty sure they've got chatrooms and games available if you're using PageBuilder or WizardSomething. My computer doesn't let me access those anymore so I can't quite remember. If my memory has deceived me, then forget what I said: use Bravenet. I love these guys. They've got all sorts of crap there. I guess the stuff is more maintenance rather than interactive... but hey, message boards are just as, if not more, fun than chatrooms. And since you're new to web building, definitely check out Lissa Explains It All. I still go there because she just does a really great job. Highly recommended. Good luck with your web site.

(not everybody has to pretend to know what they're talking about, i know for a fact Moore is a lying, propoganda spreading, fact bending liberal.) and then the question. why are you only now coming to the conclusion that your last name is kickass. I told you that like two years ago in a random instant message.
-john
Did you really? I'm afraid I don't remember, but thank you. I used to just like my last name. Now I'm like rohhhhhhhh Griffin's RULE. Something like that. Your last name is my brother's first name.

Avril Lavigne is playing at another computer? Why, God, why? Oh, there are two Jesus..es here. We're super holy. Oh, so my original question. Why do y o u think the youth of America is apathetic towards politics?
-Tori the Journalist-Impostor
Because politics are boring. I guess if asked I'd say I'm a democrat because my dad is and I think he's always right, but that's about as far into politics as I'll get. Yeah I may be ignorant, but at least I don't pretend to know what I'm talking about. At least I'm not bashing George W. Bush just because it's the thing to do. And at least I don't worship Michael Moore. I don't care about politics and I stick by that; I'm not going to pretend to care because I listen to Rock Against Bush--as a matter of fact, I dont listen to Rock Against Bush. I just don't get into these things. I'd rather watch ESPN. Oh what do you know! It's on TV.

glad to see you're posting again, i was getting worried for a while there. i really do like this site. anyway, you going to be posting more often now?
-john
thank you john, i appreciate that. i suppose i will be updating more often now. though i really don't want it to turn so... livejournal. like updating everyday with how i sat around or how i went to the mall. i need to figure out some sort of archive... i'm working on it. but i'm glad you like it. say, when are you coming back?

Um i was ready the ask a question archives, and you said you didn't want to put up with obnoxious people all day as well as music, so you will go to band instead. It's the same thing, would you not agree?

Wow, right over your head, eh Maggie? That's what makes me so funny.

So have you named the darling frightening bird yet? If not, I would have suggested some..but I looked up names with the meaning 'evil' and none came up. Pity.
-The Namer
Well, Tori, I had originally named him Tobias (refer to guestbook) because I figured he was an Animorph. I now know that he's just a big jerk. So I started to look up names with meanings that described him. First, I had to check to make sure whether the cardinal was male or female. My parents, who both attended a highschool where the mascot was a cardinal, have a wealth of information about them, but I can't remember whether it is the males who are more red or not. So I googled it, and confirmed my suspicion--he was male. I proceeded to go to babycenter.com which has plenty of names and a meaning generator. I put in all the adjectives I could think to describe the bird. A few possible ones: Rusty (Redheaded), Trory (The Red One), Flynn (Heir to the Redheaded). It was around this time that the bird returned to my window and I took about twenty pictures. Anyway. Monroe (From the Red Swamp), Red (Redheaded One), None of which I liked. Help me, Tori, I just can't name him.

what's wrong?
