stopping into the office to tie up some loose ends and run some errands... checked my voice mail and heard this:

"> i might be late... i'm dead... but expect me at TEN!"

listening to it reminded me of something sorabji wrote a while ago about calling up random manhattan answering machines and leaving strange, cryptic messages...

when i was working at AT&T Wireless out in cold-dead seattle, this colleague of mine kept complaining of being harassed by a "phone-stalker"... apparently some guy would leave non-threatening but weirder-than-bat shit messages on her answering machine when she was at work. at first she just joked about it, calling him "her little techno-terrorist"... but after awhile, she became totally unraveled and ended up not only changing her phone number, but disconnecting her phone all together...

as far as she told me, not once did this guy ever suggest that he would harm her in any way... infact it sounded like he wasn't really even addressing her; he just kind of rambled bizarre mumbo-jumbo, much like what i've got on my vm today... but homegirl got *flipped out* i think she would have rather had the guy say something traditionally crazy, like demanding her undying love or money or whatever... but getting these, non-sensical, chaotic messages was just too much for her... it's funny what makes people snap...

and here we've got Mark Thomas calling up the already all-too-unstable denizens of manhattan and pushing their buttons... lol...

if i ever hear from her again, i'll be sure to give her this URL and tell her it was all Sorabji's fault. that oughtta be good for a few laughs... anyway, i gotta go...

got some phone calls to make.

i am here, i have no money, i am not free

I was just curious to see what this was about. I'm also broke so we have something in common. When is the best time to veiw the bed cam and what will you be doing???? Rick

Lookin' at Mark's office from Gdynia, in Poland. Hi everybody!

Feeling really confused. this may be because I gave up smoking, I wonder if that was a good idea.

A cute, single, chic lost in cyberspace, wondering how the he** she got here..hmmmmmm, this page needs a Chat room. Yup. Just one more place for the freaks to come out at night, or day, or, or...WHATEVER!!!

baking brownies. Because I can't smoke for 3 weeks.

Today I went to the grocery and bought 12 little containers of yogurt and a box of brownie mix. The bag boy said "You must really like yogurt!" I say "Actually, it's all I can eat. I just had oral surgery." He says "Oh... but you can eat brownies?" I says "Uh, well, I can't smoke for three weeks, so I have to make brownies" He says "Brownies are a good substitute for cigarettes?"

The cashier laughs. We exchange knowing glances.

As I leave I hear the bag boy tell the next customer "Wow! Milk does a body good! Your family must be big on milk."

Must be a lose connection somewhere.

Home..cut the weekend short..just felt like being home.

Getting ready to go to bed. Its 2 am SF time, and I've had a busy day. I finally fixed the kludgy ethernet hookup in my kitchen . I found out that my lady neighbor across the way has a thing for me and am wondering how to let her down gently. I cooked a huge pot of chili. My cat is angry because I shut her up in my bedroom for 2 hours (she needed a time out..She was climbing the screens on the living room window again). Good night everyone on the West Coast. Good Morning to all on the East.

Hoping this doesn't sound preachy.. but, here goes anyway...

Nate... if you can stop smoking for 3 weeks, why don't you just STOP period? Hmmm? *bays eyes like a pre-teen school girl*

Christopher, pussy time out's huh? Good idea. Never thought of that. The cat will really hate me now.

not quitting all together, just quitting smoking. That's what the brownies are for.

Besides, I don't really want to quit. I just want to slow down a bit.

(you know, I'm not talking about tobacco?)

Not quitting all together. . . .Just quitting alone. . . That's what the poppies are for. .

pulling my hair out over preparing for a public presentation in front of like 200+ people!

Showing my roommate around. Amazed that PJboy didnt get Nate's read between the lines, knowing glances, brownies story. I almost feel bad that I did. Oh well, Why didnt they just give you Vicatan or something as effect as the whole contraban thing?

-wondering why ANYONE would bother paging Mark to say "This site shouldn't exist, and then curse at him a lot." There are so many sickos about.

Also wishing I could read the article about Mark in the NY Cybertimes, but outside you have to pay for access and I'm too mean!! ;-) LOL

headed out for lunch...nice haircut Mark!

waiting for mark to get back from lunch so i can see this haircut everyone's talking about.

...wishing he could pray to G**. ...wondering how many days it will take Mark to stop squirting too much shampoo. It took me some 2 weeks or so. ...really pissed off at yogurt.

Sitting here feeling highly pissed that one of my friends hasn't emailed me in awhile.

In other news...

I went to church yesterday. That was pretty cool. People in the place acted like they were afraid to sit next to eachother. That wasnt. The ushers looked like air traffic control men. That wasnt very cool either.

I think, perhappes, I expect to many ideals in reality.

noticing mark's shark hair cut....man i haven't been here in a while!

sorry renae!!!!!!

damn, can't please them all....

thinking that life is on a road to something....and i didn't pack my lunch.

Mark sweetie, I've been sitting here for 5 minutes watching you, and you would not believe how addicting it can be just to watch someone. Thanx. I like it when you move. =P

[email protected]

realizing that i forgot to put up the little sign that i'm on "Break"... eating Cheez-its, drinking Coke, and thinking that Mark looks like some artist or writer or something whose name I can't remember... oh, Eric Clapton (musician, close...)

it looks real nice, mark. your tape is on the way. oh, and one more thing...

[email protected]

annoyed. i was gonna get my hair cut too today, but not as short as mark's. flaked on my appointment because i missed my flight this morning. some dumb fuck mid-west family of 11 tourists, complete with the screaming blonde-haired twins, were busily taking up too much space, fumbling with too much luggage, and duct taping boxes of del monte pineapple before sending them off on the conveyor. as if buying pineapple here is so special. i wanted to scream DON'T YOU REALIZE THAT DEL MONTE SHIPS THEIR PINEAPPLES TO BUM FUCK MINNESOTA AND YOU CAN JUST GET THEM THERE? but instead i just stood there and watched the clock tick and listened to screaming twins and the zip of duct tape and i missed my flight.

now, if i had been driving...

I'm sexing my wife & her sister.

Just got back to Philly from NYC where I attended a lecture at Fordham University. I did not have enough time to let Mark know that I would be up there. I had a wonderful time---I met with some other net friends---all in all a good day.

not particularly angry with anyone... just finding whoever is at " as04-022.whc.net-" annoying as shit... check it out...

all these posts originated from "as04-022.whc.net"... the poster indentified himself as "I'm Naked" at 12:12 am, "Senor Groper" at 12:24am, "Dickhead" at 12:28am, and none other than "Blindswine" at 12:36am...

not a big deal.... just kind of vaguely annoying...

actually, the fact that it's getting under my skin is probably a sign that i need to go out and get laid again...

stress is a bitch...

[email protected]

thinking that anger is not all that bad... Stress is, however, and as for getting laid? That's not bad at all...

[email protected]

Look at it this way Blindswine...he wouldn't be using your name if he didn't find your writings worth imitating.

But if someone started using my name, I'd be mad as hell...

my actions? or someone elses?? what is this page??

R2-D2 on the other hand is a whole other story.

horrified and amused that someone has taken it upon themselves to make 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" into a feature film... jesus...

i remember finding that book while working as a security guard at Bucknell University when i was in high-school... three paragraphs into that shit and i was hooked... (in many more ways than one)

i still love the Samuel Johnson quote...

"He who makes a beast of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man."

words to live by.

check out the web-site...

it's kinda funny.

blindswine... who better to handle "fear and loathing..." than Terry Gilliam?

I just killed a fly with my bare hands. My roommate finds my post-murder rantings directed at the spot on the wall to be humorous. So much for them being the best damn aviators in the natural world.

Woo. Those martinis have effected me quite well.

depressed.

paranoia.com is going out of business. which means i have to move 23 megs of mostly text to some other suitable graveyard.

might move everything to a new http://tpogh.sorabji.com. or to nowhere. don't even know if i can stand to look at that place again to decide just what the hell to do with it.

could spread it out over several free sites.

thinking about setting up personal homepages and e-mail accounts here. just for the hell of it, and because we can. [email protected]. http://sorabji.com/everybody/

that'll give me something to do.

goodnight............

Reflecting on Mark's sad predicament with paranoia.com, and thinking about Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I went tothe page that Blindswine suggested, and was appalled that Dennis Hopper is not in the movie. And Johnny Depp as the lawyer? Only if he gains 100 pounds! Thinking about the former job: I guess I should have known it was time for me to go on disability when I saw that my evil supervisor had a picture of Hunter S. Thompson shooting his tyepwriter with a pistol affixed to his computer. I would not have cared if we were working in a prision, but we worked in a psychiatric hospital for children .

Both Dani and Jim are back...where ya'all been kids?

Well Jimbabe...looks like we have been found out..lets just tell Pete the truth about us being off together. Yes Pete, It's true...I successfully managed to get Jim over to my team after alllllllllll this time. He and his flickering tongue were simply wonderful too. Sorry Jim but I just cant keep our little escapade a secret any longer...LOL

of being a beautiful princess...and wondering how it is i am so damn good at staying still.

Saying hello to the rat race. Feeling introspective (like that never happens). Also saying HI to kymical, who is like myself a victim of the rat race.

Yae, I've brough the Irish to the site. If they all keep up with it then this will be cool in couple of months. not to say it isnt already.

hacking my lungs out from this quite annoying cold I seem to be getting. Started with just a headache yesterday morning, then alluva sudden the sor throat and plugged head hit me. Blech :p Just how I wanted to spend the remainder of my week.

[email protected]

Getting sideswiped by the Fear & Loathing site....were the gods mocking me?

I made it to the first page ok and then my computer overloaded with multiple windows. Who should I curse more? Blindswine or Bill Gates?

Bill Gates I guess.

My demons who eat out of my hands look just like squirrels....in fact they are squirrels.

Oh....and welcome back Dani and Jim....long time no see. :-)

playing with my tongue ring (well its actually a barbell, not a rin) and trying no tto go into another sneezing fit with this blasted cold. oi vey.

Nate.. save me one of those brownies ;)

sedated.

The brownies are gone, so sorry. They were kind of weak anyway. Mostly leaf from yanked males.

Whatever that means. I really don't know.

Next batch though, I'll mail you a few. Any of you. I'm very generous. And stupid, obviously. I don't know any of you. Goddamnit. You're all fucking cops, aren't you. This is just an elaborate plot to destroy my massive drug empire.

Well I'm on to you! You won't take me that easy!

And they say pot makes you paranoid. Well it doesn't... It just makes you smart! Smarter than you pigs!

(no offense intended, Blindswine.)

Staring deep into my computer! reading the incredibly un informative but sometimes funny stuff every one writes in to this place!

Getting ready to go to bed! Too many long days!

Thinking this nighttime view from Mark's office is really neat in a 5th element kind of way...

[email protected]

missing...

what are you doing?

missing... thinking 'bout long weekend (start: today at 15.00, it will be 9.00 at Mark's office). Mmmm....

[email protected]

reading back on everyones comments and craving one of Nates brownies hardcore now. *laugh* Those are good for a cold, right? Hrmm, maybe I can convince my doctor to perscribe a lil sumthin sumthin...

Yeah, the view from Marks office at this time of night is pretty cool. Hrmm, and I'm sitting here watching the same pic re-load over and over, rather than going to snuggle w/my boyfriend.... Pretty whacked.

Jello sounds good about now, since this cold has kept me from eating anything all day. Lime.. no, peach.. hrmm, or maybe I'll try that new sparkling white grape. Looks kinda interesting.

K, I'm gone. G'nite.. sweat dreams & all that stuff.

[email protected]

wondering what I'm doing up at this ridiculous hour (i haven't been to bed) smoking my pipe and drinking a cup of hot tea (lemon). thinking to myself are there other vampires like me out there who cannot seem to sleep until the sun rises in the morning. if you're out there drop me a line.
