My most beloved fivers:
                It seems as if my sarcasm has been painfully mistaken.  It 
was a joke.  Please accept my most sincere apologies.  I don't HATE Frally, 
that would be wrong.  It's a lil painful yes, so I satirically play off of 
that.  I guess soemthings are better left unsaid.  I'm truly sorry
                    ~Melissa

Subject: A funny thing happened..

I'm now on what must be the 30th listen to Reinhold M and I just found
myself with a tear in my eye listening to Darren Jesse's "Magic", after
listening to the words a little more closely than before..

I'm not in the habit of doing this sort of thing, and it is definitely one
of the most touching songs I have ever heard. (Obviously!)

My point; This group has come to mean SOooo much to me over the years, and
I have decided I *must* after all get along to the London gig next week, I
hadn't bought tickets because I didn't think they'd be doing new stuff (I
don't tend to follow the net news as often as I should!)...

And I CAN'T WAIT to stomp along to Army! :-)

Hey I have a really cool idea for like a symbol that a person likes Ben Folds 
Five-
TOOTHBRUSH BRACELETS!!!! You can make bracelets out of toothbrushes and if 
you see some one wearing one, you know that they like Ben Folds Five!!
They are really stylish also(for girls at least)
Email me privatley for directions!!

Woah baby, I never knew Ben has been married and divorced twice.  He seems so 
young to me.
How old is Ben anyway??

Also to that Melissa girl who suggested started an anti- frally group, that 
is so mean!  I know it's hard to picture someone you love so dearly with a 
girlfriend and soon to be mother of his children, but be happy for him!

Did anyone out there record the webcast?  My puter wouldn't let me see it, 
it froze every time I tried.  If you did record it would you be so kind as 
to send me a copy either through internet or mail?  PLEASE!!!

I was sitting waiting to get my nails done and I grabbed a copy of 
Madamoiselle (I don't know/care if thats the right spelling) and I saw a 
review for TUBORM!! Nothing too special, but when you're not expecting it, it 
brings a smile to your face!!  :)
Also, I work at a coffee shop and last nite I'm just cleaning the counters 
when all of asudden Brick comes on!!! Seriously, talk about not expecting 
it!! I guess I'm weird or something, but I thought it was so cool to hear Ben 
and the boys at my work and know that I can always pop that cd in the player! 
Or maybe it's just me liking to smile at familar things... I don't know  :)

just had to respond.  i think a Ben and Dave Matthews colaboration would be 
awesome.  BF5 and DMB are my two favorite bands, along with Live, and i think 
the mix of their music would be great.  sorry just had to voice that opinion. 
later

Subject: tour dates?

Does anyone know of any plans of the boys to come down to South Florida?  
I've yet to see them live in concert and would really like to see them on 
this tour.  Please email me privately  BOG420@aol.com  thanks.  
And I guess I'll add my $.02.  I love TUBORM.  My favorite songs are Magic, 
which is playing right now, and Lullabye.  Okay, just thought I'd jump on the 
opinion bandwagon.  Later.
