I like the idea of loving the kids you teach, but um, be careful. A little too much of that tickling is bound to get you talked about ... proper decorum's the concept I'm after.

Yes, and aren't we all. The mix of the two of them is what makes us beutiful, in the many different ways we are.

I had another name on the old boards. I was watching Reservoir Dogs at the time I was registering for this board. I liked the character Mr. Pink the best - also I figured it had a bit of irony for the fact in Korea, the locals have a yellowish tinge of color, whereas white people typically have a pinkish tint of color...hence the name. (Despite the other connotations of the color pink, I am not gay or trying to promote the pink movement, etc.)

The name is usually Koreanized to 토마스, which sounds like 토마토.

I love:

Life

The truth

The unknowable

The word

The unutterable

And pretension, action..

Which is: the poem, the song

[I desire to be the singer, the sung, the song of truth]

What were the skies like when you were young?

They went on forever
And they -- when I
We lived in Arizona
And the skies always had little fluffy clouds
And they were long and clear
And there were lots of stars, at night
And when it rained it would all turn
It -- they were beautiful
The most beautiful skies as a matter of fact
The sunsets were purple and red
And yellow and on fire
And the clouds would catch the colors everywhere
That's -- it's neat
Because I used to look at them all the time
When I was little
You don't see that

Layering different sounds on top of each other
Layering different sounds on top of each other

Little fluffy clouds
Little fluffy clouds and
Little fluffy clouds and
Little fluffy clouds and

You don't see that
You might still see them in the desert

The most beautiful skies as a matter of fact
Purple and red


The Orb loves superflyyyyyyyy

that doesn't tell us anything. 'scrotum' is also a real english word. why did you choose 'atavistic' over 'scrotum'?


Why the hell did you choose endofthewor1d instead of scrotumhead?


'end', 'of', 'the', and 'world' are four real english words. 'endoftheworld' was unavailable. so i substituted a '1' for the 'l'.


you two made me laugh.
