That's fair enough. I see where you are coming from. -

This must be the sexy thing to say. Think of the children! That's (causing a disruption on your precious individual existence) the whole point in civil disobedience. LMAO... Like anything will get done if nobody is bothered. I hate it as much as you if whatever is happening doesn't align with my beliefs and puts a dent in my rat race... YET, I fully understand why my inconvenience is taking place. Gee... Warn me first. I am in control. How lazy of a society have we become? -

This! One of my favorite Emily Dickenson poems: Because I could not stop for Death Because I could not stop for Death – He kindly stopped for me – The Carriage held but just Ourselves – And Immortality. We slowly drove – He knew no haste And I had put away My labor and my leisure too, For His Civility – We passed the School, where Children strove At Recess – in the Ring – We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain – We passed the Setting Sun – Or rather – He passed us – The Dews drew quivering and chill – For only Gossamer, my Gown – My Tippet – only Tulle – We paused before a House that seemed A Swelling of the Ground – The Roof was scarcely visible – The Cornice – in the Ground – Since then – 'tis Centuries – and yet Feels shorter than the Day I first surmised the Horses' Heads Were toward Eternity –

Other way around. He's the pedestrian looking one. What was her problem? Vanity is a mortal sin. There was an article how times have changed. Beauty now seeks out beauty even more extremely... That was Christie's problem. I will see if I can find it. To quote the Ani DiFranco lyrics, more like all the time: "Youth is beautyMoney is beautyHell, beauty is beauty sometimesIt's the luck of the drawIt's the natural lawIt's a jokeIt's a crime..."

Yep. Just age gracefully and take the lumps. Youth is fleeting. So what.

If You join the ShoutBox Club, it will stay open. RIP Sue... I never understood why the mob mentality ganged up on you. It's just what people do I suppose. Funny times, things were changing 14 years ago. So true. My mother passed away exactly 20 years ago @ 58...Almost 59 in 1999. Far too young.

He lived in Glencoe, Illinois. From Wiki: "The median income for a household in the village was $193,571, and the median income for a family was $235,000. Male full-time workers had a median income of $202,083 versus $65,549 for females. The per capita income for the village was $106,649, placing Glencoe among the 20 wealthiest communities in the United States.[11][12]Approximately 4.5% of the population and 4.7% of families were below the poverty line, including 4.7% of those under the age of 18 and 10.5% age 65 or older." How is this even possible? Are they hiding out in a potting shed behind a mansion on Lake Michigan? -
[LMAO... Don't ask how this song popped into my mind! ? ] It's at times like this, the great heaven knows that we wish we had not so many clothes So let's loosen up with a playful tease like all lovers did through the centuries We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? a-ha-ha When it gets so hot, the end of the day You may find your clothes getting in the way If a pretty dress hides your true desire Fold it nice and slow, throw it on the fire We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? (a-ha-ha) We don't need to see what the butler saw Or a mirrored room with a mirrored floor All those sneaky looks, gazing down on you Are no substitute for our rendezvous We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? a-ha-ha It's at times like this, the great heaven knows That we wish we had not so many clothes So let's loosen up with a playful tease Like all lovers did through the centuries If you think it's cheap or a bit risqué Please don't say a word I'll just slip away I am not a man who believes in lies Like an octopus with big x-ray eyes Don't freeze up girl, you're looking quite a sight Be generous, I want it all tonight (ooh ooh) We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? We're just following ancient history If I strip for you, will you strip for me? Don't freeze up girl, you're looking quite a sight Be generous, I want it all tonight

Huh? Where was the charge going? Into the air... You should have threatened to call the EPA. LoL... I wonder if that would work.

Well, it's not far down to paradise, at least it's not for me And if the wind is right you can sail away and find tranquility Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see. Believe me. It's not far to never-never land, no reason to pretend And if the wind is right you can find the joy of innocence again Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see. Believe me. Sailing takes me away to where I've always heard it could be Just a dream and the wind to carry me And soon I will be free...

Favorite Summer Vacation Spot?
ExiledInIllinois replied to Halloween Land's topic in Off the Wall Archives
Try Ogunquit. Not too far from York. Big beach. Eat too much lobster and get a tummyache, chase it with something fried, like a funnel cake! Enjoy! -
Here comes old Rosie she's looking mighty fine Here comes hot Nancy she's steppin' right on time There go the street lights bringin on the night Here come the men faces hidden from the light All through the shadows they come and they go With only one thing in common They got the fire down below Here comes the rich man in his big long limousine Here comes the poor man all you got to have is green Here comes the banker and the lawyer and the cop One thing for certain it ain't never gonna stop When it all gets too heavy That's when they come and go With only one thing in common They got the fire down below It happens out in Vegas happens in Moline On the blue blood streets of Boston Up in Berkeley and out in Queens And it went on yesterday and it's going on tonight Somewhere there's somebody ain't treatin' somebody right...

Girl you taught me how to hurt real bad and cry myself to sleep You showed me how this town can shatter dreams Another lesson about a naive fool that came to Babylon And found out that the pie don't taste so sweet Now it's guitars, Cadillacs, hillbilly music Lonely, lonely streets that I call home Yeah my guitars, Cadillacs, hillbilly music Is the only thing that keeps me hanging on There ain't no glamour in this tinseled land of lost and wasted lives And painful scars are all that's left of me Oh but thank you girl for teaching me brand new ways to be cruel If I can find my mind now, I guess I'll just leave

Order a bubble tea next time you are in Asian restaurant. Suck those little tapioca pearls up through that huge non-eco friendly straw and you will die and go to "tapioca maggot heaven!" ? -
A Hollywood script writer says: "When the Russian stuff blows, which is coming..." Is this like YouTube influencers that live in dream world and think the earth is flat? Life imitating art far more than art imitating life. "Lying, the telling of beautiful untrue things, is the proper aim of Art." /smh Take offense all you want... But keep hope alive Brutha!
