What's going on Tate. How's life in Canterbury mate? It's good to see some old regulars here. Phoenix, Morgan, Luz etc.. are all gone. But it's good to know that you, Jake, and your pal Freebird are still around.
If you could go.... (Page 2)

Oh ok. That was a very good thing to take care of your mum. At least she is out of pain now. Do you think you might come back to the states? Don't go back to Den. Come here and find an American girl.

LOL
Coke..so isn't cool.But um, I'd either choose to live in the 20's....before the Great Depression I mean, or the 30's and 40's.
But then again, maybe anywhere before the Industrial Revolution...actually, the Romantic Period, because I love the Romantic poets. John Keats, Percy Shelley and Lord Byron!
The Puritan Age would be interesting to observe though..... I really can't decide...

Has anyone ever read Orlando by Virginia Woolf? It's brilliant (throughout the novel, she not only changes the time period in which s/he lives, but gender as well).
"..Danger and insecurity, lust and violence, poetry and filth swarmed over the tortuous Elizabethan highways and buzzed and stank - Orlando could remember even now the smell of them on a hot night - in the little rooms and narrow pathways of the city. Now - she leant out of her window - all was light, order, and serenity. There was the faint rattle of coach on the cobbles. She heard the far-away cry of the night watchman - 'Just twelve o'clock on a frosty morning'. No sooner had the words left his lips than the first stroke of midnight sounded. Orlando then for the first time noticed a small cloud gathered behind the dome of St. Paul's. As the strokes sounded, the cloud increased, and she saw it darken and spread with extraordinary speed. At the same time a light breeze rose and by the time the sixth stroke of midnight had struck the whole of the eastern sky was covered with an irregular moving darkness, though the sky to the west and north stayed clear as ever. Then the cloud spread north. Height upon height above the city was engulfed by it..With the eighth stroke, some hurrying tatters of cloud sprawled over Picadilly...As the ninth, tenth, and eleventh strokes struck, a huge blackness sprawled over the whole of London. With the twelfth stroke of midnight, the darkness was complete. A turbulent welter of cloud covered the city. All as darkness; all was confusion. The Eighteenth century was over; the Nineteenth century had begun".

Just wanted to let everyone know that I will be gone, gone gone, from June 3rd through June 8th, on my Disneyland trip with my mom! (I realize how dorky that sounds, but trust me, we're not dorks, we have a blast when we go together! No boys, woohoo!!)~
