FLUXLIST: Brian's list
I've been away. Now I'm back here. Had a cell phone for three days once. Returned it. I don't want to be that accessible. I have a driver's license but almost never drive. I walk or take mass transit. I read and hoard books (and I work in the publishing industry). I don't like the idea of "E-books." Too clean. I see deer shit out the window/ Never played a video game (except Pong). Addicted to television. Nonstop visual stimulation. Don't really know how many emails I get daily. Twenty? Thirty? Keep some. Addicted to methamphetamine for just over two years(long ago).Still addicted to tobacco. Invariably involved with alcoholics (sometimes active, sometimes dry), although I myself don't metabolize alcohol too well. Took loads and loads of pills. Acid in college. Dope in college (I've always found the opiates dull). Pot in high school. Cocaine in college and f or a few years after. Now, it's down to tobacco and the occasional Xanex. Pathetic, really. I have to interact with people every day, but I don't much think about it. Some friends took me to Atlantic City so I could photograph Giant Jersey Butts and other boardwalk attractions. It was ghastly, I loved it! There's a statue of Bert Parks (he used to host the Miss America pagent for many years). He's holding out a crown, and if you stand underneath it a hidden speaker starts blaring "here she comes, miss america..." It's great. I have no gambling luck whatsoever. In fact, I may even be a jinx to other gamblers, so I don't gamble. I like some slot machines, though. Just came back from Wildwood New Jersey (down the shore). The longest, trashiest boardwalk. The googiest motels (we stayed at the Casa Bahama - all aqua/pink/yellow A frames). It's just wonderful. And I hate the beach. BG
FLUXLIST: Exhibit is filled with variety, pleasant surprises
This Story has been sent to you by : [EMAIL PROTECTED] Exhibit is filled with variety, pleasant surprisesWhat could be more versatile and surprising than a book? An artists' book. That's the revelation of a new exhibit at the Minnesota Center for Books Arts in Minneapolis. Co-curators Jeff Rathermel and Rosemary Furtak have filled the MCBA gallery with more than 150 selections from the Walker's rarely seen collection to show the vast range of this fertile, contradictory genre.

Our dogs are hanging out outside. Or forever hold your nuts in a blender. I have finally and thankfully come to the conclusion I am a lil gay boy in a lil girls body. I have a friend Jane, who is single and lives alone. She has multiple health problems. Well, we're at the YMCA on base and talking to people about God and musicial talents. Sometimes Jane struggles with insecurity and depression. Thoughts of suicide cross her mind. One time when she was feeling this way, she prayed for help but none came. I helped Mike with his e-mail, that was cool. Saturday night I had a rather interesting dream. In it, I was with some sort of group, I had the sense that we were missionaries and probably on some sort of mission. We also had some leaders and I got kind a Baptisty vibe off of them. We were issued weapons by these men, AK-47s. The urge to commit suicide passed but afterwards, she wondered why God hadn't sent help. Then one day after talking to Suzanne, a friend from church, she found that Suzanne had received a prompting the day she had prayed for help. The Ak-47 is the most popular weapon in the world and it's not the best but it's not a bad gun either. She had felt that she should call Jane but sadly hadn't followed through on it. According to Mike's bible study Tuesday, people are treating the gospel like their low-carb diets. The idea is to slim down. Well that's ok for the body but not for the spirit. God gave him a real good analogy. Dan is working. = It's another blog! http://flobberlob.blogspot.com/ === message truncated === __ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

Re: FLUXLIST: answers
hello zoe. here is the first complimentary list. i don't go anywhere, so it doesn't matter if i walk, run, or drive. books are only worth the while if i can stash my gear in their hollow bodies. i can't see anything out my window, as i can't stand the daylight, so i covered them up with aluminum foil and duct tape. i usually just have the tv on 24/7, as it's a skinny white boy junky's only diversion. SAVE FOR VIDEO GAMES: i sit and stare at how cool things are. i don't count or save all of my emails, just those that have to do with getting high. Seroquel, neurontin, artane and luvox are my drugs of choice, though a nice ball of dope usually suffices. my only interaction is with my dealer downtown. brian welcome to my parlor.
Re: FLUXLIST: answers
now for reals, thought i feel some folks would prefer the latter for their precious, serene and saint like existence i usually drive places, save for the Circle K, as El Paso is a car town . i like books, but got into e-books after some begrudgement factors had been overcome. you can get e-books for a multiple of readers. Adobe has a great one. my windows are all covered, due to the extreme amount of sun i receive, but not with foil and duct tape, with tan towels and rolled out piano rolls. had to think of something crafty to do with them. my tv watching goes in spurts, though i prefer movies. i play video games some of the time. actually, it turns into studying them, and i wonder if i am having fun with them. i don't count my emails either. i save some. Seroquel, neurontin, artane and luvox are my pre- scribed drugs, and the closest thing i get to any vice, is nicotine. my interaction is either with my folks or with y'all. that's about it. brian welcome to my parlor.
