PLEASE KEEP YOUR POSTS SHORT
Now that many list members are back with us, the volume of posts will
be increasing. This makes it important to stay on topic and keep your
posts concise. Avoid the tendency to ramble, as this increases the
amount of text readers have to wade through. If you want to ramble on,
take it to IRC or the newsgroup.
Also remember to be very selective in your quoting of others'
messages. Don't quote an entire post just to add one or two lines. And
be especially careful not to quote the whole digest!!

AUGHH!!! I'm kicking myself very hard right now-
last night I stayed in just to watch SNL, and so I
decided it wouldn't be a bad time to start on some of
those Bio essays that are due Monday. Unfortnately,
writing those essays didn't do much as far as keeping me
awake after not sleeping all week, being out until 3 Friday
and being sick on top of it all. Basically, I missed the SNL
performance entirely...and after sitting through all those
idiotic Samuel L. Jackson skits, too. I'm curious about how
the boys looked to the rest of the nation, though, so if anyone
has a tape I could get a copy of (or if you live around Ann
Arbor you could just invite me over to watch), I'd really
appreciate it.
Live good.

Subject: Mango!
One song! No one good shot of the Sledge concentrating on his base!
Honestly, I don't think that BFF is going to have Scary Mass Domination
of the sucky Sugar Ray variety with the public-I think they'll probably
have Squirrel Nut Zippers-Morphine level of popularity, including the
devoted armchairites!
That was definetly an above level episode, though, the Mango and the GO!
GEORGE CLOONEY! Being my personal favorites.
Im biding my sweet time until Nekkid Bebe Photos.
I do like Samuel L Jackson

did you notice Ben and the catholic schoolgirl talking ?? What about the
"Im the man!" faces that our little drummer boy was making? And where was
the Ben Folds Five meets the Catholic schoolgirl skit that must be
someday? Huh?
~Elisabeth
new cd-Boy Wonder. Really fun and catchy-sweet girly voiced lead singer.

For all y'all in the Westchester New York Area, you can pick up a copy of
NBP at Borders Books & Music in Mt. Kisco.
Does anyone know a place to pick it up early in Philly?
