I love white toast. Only one time 2 summers ago, my friend Kara, (a year younger than me, 10 turning 11 at the time) was staying with us like all summer, it was weird, and then We were gonna go to Maine, and thats a 10 hour drive, and it was about 2 O'clock, and I REALLY just HAD to have some white toast before we left, so I decided to walk all the way from my house to the diner to get some. Thats pretty far. Oh and it was about 100 degrees no joke. So I dragged Kara with me, because, what else did she have to do? And so we went to the diner and I got my white toast, and it cost exactly a dollar and 18 cents. I stink at math. I was 11 going on 12. I didn't know what a proper tip was, or that it had anything at all to do with the amount you spent, so... I left a dollar 50 tip. Boo hoo this is making me feel stupid. It was my own allowance too. poo.

I ditched my friend at an audition today. He's pissed at me. I'm pissed at me. I most certainly do not feel better. And shit like this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4980402.stm doesn't help either. I mean really, what is wrong with Christianity? These men are celibate anyway, they don't have sex with anyone, i doubt Clergy of this stature even approve of themselves thinking about sex of any gender combination. Zero logic. I'd challenge anybody of any religious denomination - be it the Pope or the Dali Lama - to rifle through The 'Good' Book and show me exactly where Jesus Chirst condemns homosexuality - or any such number of condemned things. The fact is he doesn't. Christ nowhere says 'Gays are bad, throw them to the lions' he did not say on the cross 'A gay should be here instead' he did not say 'Wash my feet Mary, i walked past a gay this afternoon'. Christians need to learn to be Christians, and follow the teachings of Christ, not worship some book - which, on the most part, he rarely appears in in person. *goes away* IP: Logged |

Oh dear. What was the problem with the audition? I quite agree with you about the Bible. It's been filtered through so many translations over so long a time, it's impossible to follow it literally. Like the story of Onan, which for so long used to be held up as an anti-masturbation tract. In fact, God punsihed him becasue he disobeyed a direct command to impregnate his brother's wife (I think) by masturbating instead; God wasn't punishing him for the w*nk itself. And if we all followed the Bible word-for-word we'd steer clear of shellfish, avoid meat on Fridays and take concubines unto ourselves. It's like that quote in 'The Simpsons' where Ned Flanders says 'I've done everything the Bible says. Even the stuff that contradicts the other stuff...'. By the way, Dorothy Parker's parrot was called Onan. Because he spilled his seed on the ground. Hope that's slightly cheered you up. Sorry you're down again. Gingerbread man/woman, anyone?

*screams* I've found it! At last, i've been looking for a recording of this since 2003. *screams* This is my favourite Eurovision song ever, the only one i've ever liked, oh, oh, oh it's awful, oh, oh, oh, it's so hilarious. Prepare yourselves for the campest display of camp in the history of camp. This so deserved to have won, for its sheer volumous campidity. It's not just camp, it's EuroCamp, which makes it even camper. Ok, enough, ta-da! "Hello *squirms* Ignore the pink tank top *writhes* Because i'm completely not homosexual *twists* See, i'm dancing with half naked woman *jives* so i can't be gay *wrings* vote for me *squirms* I'm Bosnian and in a disco *thrusts*" Love.

quote: Oh. My. God. I couldn't take any more than about one and a half minutes of it. And I actually OWN a copy of the CD of the 2002 competition (er...good winning song. As well as the air-hostess-trannies from Slovenia and Greece doing S.A.G.A.P.O, the WORST Eurovision entry. EVER). Yes, it is camper than Dale Winton, Larry Grayson and Frankie Howard on holiday in pink sequin tents on the set of 'Carry On Camping'. Has anyone seen our entry this year? The middle-aged guy pretending to be 18 in his stone washed jeans with the slightly creepy gymnastic schoolgirls. It's got to win. By the way, Americans, the Eurovision song contest: think of the worst novelty song you possibly can, multiply it by the number of European states (and Israel!), sprinkle it with glitter, add 2,000 years of historical rivalries and have it hosted by an Irishman in a ludicrosuly obvious toupee.

*gasp* You can't call it the EC any more. You. Ea You. E.U. The thing that i find hilarious is this whole thing is borne from Europe, the cradle of modern culture. Finally, after two and a half thousand years of war with eachother, we finally achieve peace, and decide to hold a nomadic disco-techque each year. Love it. I'm Proud to be European! (And... get this... America are having an Amerivision Song Contest next year! A) How fabulously even tackier than Europe having one and B) Freeloading bandwagoners. *mumbles*) IP: Logged |

quote: Sorry. Child of the Thatcher Years. I often have the urge to call the euro the ecu. Amerivision sounds even more ghastly than ours. In the spirit of us allowing Israel in Eurovision, I think they need to allow at least one non-American state to enter. Honduras, or the Galapagos Islands maybe. Let us not mock Eurovison though. Reflect on the many great talents it has allowed to shine, such as Samantha Janus, Renee and Renato, Guildo Horn and...er...Celine Dion... To make this (marginally) related to the boards in general, perhaps we could propose entries for an Ozvision contest to restore peace to its troubled peoples. Terry Wogan: "And Ugabu, could we have your points please for tonight's entries?" Queen Ann Soforth: "For the Sillipede representing Gillikin with her song 'I Used To Love A Munchkin (Til Someone Dropped A House On Me)': nul points"...

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: you're a genius! I love it, I love it, I love it! Can I use it as an audition song? Now, anyone for a chorus of 'These Ruby Shoes Were Made for Walkin''? IP: Logged |

In the spirit of Nancy Sinatra I offer the following entry for Quadling Country in the Ozvision Song Contest. To be sung by Betsy Bobbin backed up by Ozma, Mombi and the Gump: Well Nessarose had always seemed quite 'armless, Well, Nessarose, there ain't no point denyin' [DOMINGON SOLO] Elphie's meddlin' where she shouldn't be meddlin' Are you ready, slippers?
