that's an awfully long time. it's a good thing that they don't come over here for soccer games... inconvenienced citizens and shopkeepers would likely shoot them.

Dr GB:
Well that would be excellent. I suggest we arrange it right away.

we'll put the next FA cup in newark, new jersey. round-trip airfare would be unnecessary.

news from last night: band practice was very, very loud. our new drummer has a great place to practice (his parents' garage), and he has real drums. the band went from "love & rockets" to "husker du" in a short time, thanks to the joys of volume. the garage had field mice running up the walls. quite literally. they were annoyed by the sonic assault.

Myk Murphy:

all the sad news about the dover tragedy. my memory of it is much more cheerful. i took a cab to dover. strange circumstances, but a short ride from canterbury. it costs almost nothing to ride the ferry to france, unless they think you're going to stay overnight or longer, and then they jack it up. it would have been a bit difficult to disguise my massive backpack as a fellow traveler. i paid up. i was unaware that the duty-free sales pitch would begin long before i made it to calais. if the stenna ferry were to sink due to the aggregate weight of the endless cartons of cigarettes and bottles of beer, i would not have been surprised. we were all handed a sort of duty-free voucher which would entitle each shopper to a certain amount of smokes or alcohol, but of course, this was of little use to me. a young english kid spotted my backpack, and approached me, wondering if i would sell this voucher for a pound or 2. i was oblivious to regulations regarding this voucher, so to be on the safe side, i told the kid to go get me a beer and the voucher was his. he dutifully performed the task, and i was enjoying a quality brew only a short way into the trip. upon arrival, it soon became apparent that daytrip shopping was a theme to be continued on land. little signs in the english language were set on the sidewalk in front of each shop, offering cheap goods and a bite to eat. as evening crept in, the english signs disappeared, and all things french returned. ...i'll finish this story later; it gets odd.

So - they try to get in but they die and they're tragic heroes. They try to get in and they get in and everyone in the UK starts bellyaching about them being poxy bastards who are too lazy to work and come over here and ponce all the dole money. Hm. Hello.

Myk Murphy:
good morning, folks. i'm glad you like it, gb. i'll try to finish it soon, but i can't really do it at work. as for your point about the unfortunate chinese folks: it's a fine line between social burden and martyrdom. public opinion, sadly, is created by the unwashed masses and manipulated by the pandering media. not that there's anything wrong with that.

Mr. Wax sat on the pickle bucket and smiled, wishing he were back in Prague with his wild and crazy friends. Of course, that was impossible. They would never let him back into the country now..

(Wed Jun 21, 2000 - 2:06:17 pm)
Myk Murphy:

Decoy:
I left work this morning at 10.30 (to a dead battery - left the lights on needed a jump) and all day I been at a golf tournament, and now I am back at work. Yippie, I suppose that answers your question.

a glorious morning to you all. i went to see a friend play guitar at a local club last night, and it was quite fun. when he left the stage, some girl came up to him and gave him her number, email, etc. this was all the more fun because the guitarist's semi-girlfriend (current status not determined) was in attendance, as well, and observed it all.

Cushca:
I'd have lamped her. Good and fucking proper.
(Thu Jun 22, 2000 - 9:23:50 am)
Myk Murphy:
a lamping? does that mean you would hit her with a table lamp? whatever it means, it sounds painful.

yesterday i went to the dentist, who did a teeth-cleaning job on my teeth i can only describe as violent and excessive. evidently, they have ways to punish those who do not receive regular cleanings.
