However, I wish to introduce a new Moxy Fan. His name is Liam and he was born July 8, 1998. His mom used to listen to Moxy Fruvous music all the time while she was carrying him, and now when Moxy is played on the stereo..he seems to really enjoy it. Great taste for only four weeks old.

[Aside - boy I'm posting a lot today - oh well] I was not at the show in question, but Chris O was, which helps my memory along. This was one of the first known instances of the lads opening for themselves. They each did one solo number. When Ji came out, he said he was gonna sing an old fashioned protest song. He then got off on a tangent talking about dinner and how he went to this restaurant and got a perch dinner (a perch is, in fact, a fish). It came in some different sizes and he got the 7oz perch platter (guessing on details here - like the actual weight). It turned out that it was 7 perch! 7 little dead fishies. At this point, he got back on track and went into his protest song. [Paraphrase from memory - pardon inaccuracies. Maybe the Port Dover show review has more info. Check FDC for that. I'm webless right now, maybe that's why I'm posting so much today] Who the hell is eating all the perch. Don't you know it goes against... good wishes. If I find that bastard person... in my search. I'll get them, because I've got a new found predilection for the fishes. He then admits that he just made that up and it really wasn't the song he was going to do. He then went off into Something Stupid Like I Love You. > do perch have pink hair like me? I would guess not. It would slow them down in the water and draw attention to them, making them more vulnerable to their natural enemy, the Canadian-Iranian. - Chad ------------------------------ Date: 6 Aug 1998 15:33:06 GMT From: kpfruhead@aol.com (KPFruhead) Subject: Re: conservatives n' fru >Ahhh!

(And the Canadian post folks seem to be willing to admit this. When I was mailing a fruitcake to my father from Ottawa last December, the clerk assured me that it had no chance of arriving until January unless I was willing to pay for Express service. No fruitcake is worth that.)

Yes, laika *is* a breed of dogs. In direct translation, it means "one who barks" ("lai" = "barking"). Additionally, it is (or at least used to be) one of the most common dog names in Russia.
