DO NOT REPLY TO OFF-TOPIC OR INSULTING MESSAGES!!!
So many people are complaining about how much space these useless
posts are occupying, without realizing that they are adding to the
problem by quoting or replying to these messages themselves.
Posts with no BFF content are off topic. So are posts of a moderating
nature (that's my job). Usually I will send a gentle reminder to
those who violate these rules, but lately it just seems to go on
and on. As a result, please be aware that you may find yourself
unsubscribed without warning if you post an off-topic message.
BACK ON SCHEDULE
The problem has been fixed and digests should once again be going out
daily on schedule.

hey all.
i've got one question. after listening to naked baby photos for about a
month, i got a thought last night. emaline could be referring to being in
a band. i don't know how much weight this might hold, but think about
it. "she's dear to me, and so expensive." being in bff (or any band) is
dear to him, but it is expensive... there are a couple other parts in the
song that could indicate that he is singing about being part of a band,
but as i don't have the disc here right now i won't take the risk of
misquoting mr. folds. what do you think? anybody else think so? cool.
later.

stacy.
the CMJ college radio stations get is different than the ones that are
sold to the general public. i believe the one we get at the denison
university radio station (wdub 91.1fm the Dubie--little plug there) where
i'm a dj is called the industry version or something like that. yeah.

I was looking for CMJ @ Borders, and all I see is Goldie on the cover.
Hes kinda scary. I flip around through other magazinhes, and I decide to
buy the new teen magazine-youre beautiful inside and out although we like
to promotea lifestyle that you will never have because youre not in
this-magaizine JUMP. Which actually isnt that vapid, but still....
it was insane when I read it. All the storys scarily echoed what I do
every day. Does that make me a trendsetter? I have been interested in
kickboxing, 50s style clothes, and being independent my whole life. Now
JUMP is advertsing that. God. But to have a real point, the frightening
thing was that...uuuhhh...Ben Folds Five was the "Band that Makes Us
Blush" and it had a cute picture (which could inspire Robert Sledge
Obsession) of them in it. Heres an abbreviated version
>>Ben Folds Five did a risky thing when they began their band by putting
a piano in it. Now the guys of Ben Folds Five are hotter than hot, but
theyre not the snooty rock stars you might expect. "What makes our music
unique is that were unique individuals claims drummer Darren while the
other two pipe in about how very "sincere and thoughtful" Robert is.
Robert the bassist says Ben is one of the best musicians around, while
Darren calls RObert the babe of the bunch."Theres not a more attractive
guy on earth"
Compliments aside, Ben Folds Five just realeased Naked baby Photos which
Truly Captures Their Funky Flair For Unusual Ballads.(hmmm) It has live
and studio and unreleased tracks....its like loooking at their naked baby
photos raw, real, uncensored. Theyve been touring nonstop since WAEA,
and trying to explain the mathematical confusion of their name. The
writer explains the name, and then ends with "Love the logic...and the
band behind it"
Arggh...Im so addicted to teen magazines, but its such a vicious cycle!
I want CMJ!
