I think about posting, but in reality this is a female dominated world. All men truly hide in fear of women. Posting something we think is reason enough for those females to slice off our heads and hold after-prom sleep over parties to celebrate their achievement. In addition to that, while the guys enjoy this band for the musical talents, it seems females tend to become entranced by the looks of the members of said band. This releases chemicals in their bodies which say 'must post often, Jian might read it' and 'must make sure everyone else knows that is mine, all mine'.

Heather said: <> Okay, so I'm only a sophomore, and I haven't gone through this whole prom thing yet. However, my school has two formal dances a year that sophomores and freshmen go to, and I really don't like them. My friends all think that they are fun (or at least that they *have* to go to them) and they force me to go also. But it's a Catholic all-girls school, and I don't know any boys. So I get three choices: don't go, and have all my friends mad at me; go alone ane be the only one without a date; or get "set-up" with someone. Unlike Heather's school, mine is mega-conservative, and I couldn't bring one of my friends who goes to another school. Before we buy our tickets, we have to fill out a permission slip and get our parents to sign it. It looks like this: Daughter's name _______________ MALE escort's full name ______________ MALE escort's school ______________ I am not kidding. Granted, I know it is a Catholic school so I guess they can't say girls going with girls is okay because maybe they would get in trouble or something, but that's a little frustrating. Well, before I bore you all to death, I'll just say that I skipped the dance in the fall, and I went to the spring dance with my best friend's neighbor. I guess it wasn't so bad, but I really didn't know him and we had very little in common, so I felt pretty awkward. I just think people go a little overboard with these dances. The oldest of us are only 16, but people are renting limos and getting dresses tailor made, or people's mothers are telling them "you can't buy a new dress unless you have a date." I just think it's a bit sick and it puts a lot of pressure on us. On a different note, I just have to say, Heather, that this <> is just about the coolest thing I've ever heard! love Lizzie ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 06 Apr 1999 18:21:45 GMT From: illegal@tmp.net Subject: ILLEGAL SPICE GIRLS PICS !!! 28390 ILLEGAL SPICE GIRLS PICS POSH, SCARY,BABY,SPORTY,GINGER ALL 100% NAKED ALL 100% FREE !!! http://Www.TopFreeSex.Com _V/3j4=K9o%&$,T_lG]\w$)tF`S8rv@qy72m+WW,;Q(I&OnAn( ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 6 Apr 1999 14:18:00 -0400 From: "KatieWow" Subject: Re: my dilemma (MUST STOP!) actually, i went to a catholic high school and there were a few times that i remember when two girls went to the prom together. in those instances, they had to talk to the principal first (who was mostly concerned that there would be backlash), but never really had a problem. ~~kate - -- evil is just special with a criminal record. - --doug, 3.26.99 everybody loves a happy ending but we don't even try we go straight on past pretending to the part where everyone loves to cry - --elvis costello ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 06 Apr 1999 14:07:15 -0400 From: Thomas Fazzio Subject: Re: Mike's excellent question....
