I had fun last night. Jobie Watson spent the night too. She’s a freak, but I like her. Her father’s a pastor and her mom’s a school teacher. She changes the color of her hair every so often. She wears weird clothes. She swears and is trying to quit smoking. She just graduated with a theater degree and is going to graduate school in Hattisburg. First we went to the mall and ate at Ruby Tuesdays. I had this fetticinie thing that had vegetables but it was greasy. Then they dragged me shopping. I got this neat light over sweater…
04/29/95 TVI and I were looking at B&N at the men are from mars women are from venus interactive CD rom for Macintoshes. We also saw men are from mars women are from venus In the Bedroom. We each picked up a copy commenting about how he had a new book out and stuff. Then we put them quickly down. I guess the title didn’t really strike us to begin with. Barney was there with Parker Lewis. We were talking about Slim, and Boogie Man suggested we each take a quadrant of the store and go around asking people, “Are…
Well, darn. I can’t believe they drained the fountain the day we were planning to jump in. I was looking forward to taking a running start and doing a cannonball, but I probably would have slipped and cracked my head open instead. Give the nursing students some practical experience.

Then again, I haven’t experienced skydiving, hang-gliding, or, well, other things… Camping strips life down to the necessities. And you’ll be surprised at how few (or from a different perspective, many) things are actually needed.Just remember that it’s okay to get dirty, because you will. Ah, yes. The campaign. It was fun. With the advent of challengers also throwing their hats into the ring, Cris Hyatt and I went into campaign mode.…
The Neutral Zone, the bulletin board I spend a good portion of my free time on has its own subculture with its own blend of characters. Several of us go to UM and so have unusual conversations that people around us must think quite odd. We are a Motley crew that socializes despite the odds. I don’t think I would spend much time around any of them if it were not for the common bond of the BBS. For the following conversation to make sense, you must first know something of the participants. Even though we deal with each other…
