Ok, the spam thing works because i've been trying to post from my
brother's account while mine was down with no luck... Just a couple of
questions and some opinions.

1) Did anyone here attend the second Sydnew Zoo TV show? If so, during
the Zoo confessionals there are some things that i believe are visual, so
could you explain: the spoon/jar thing and the "my mother doesn't know i
can do this" (what is this? with those noises I'm not so sure if i want
to know!)

2) I finally found Faraway, So Close! by Wim Wenders. I now understand
how much people disliked City of Angles. BUT, I do like City--it's just
typical americanized movie. Foreign films are more use your own
emotion--american movies the emotion is spoon fed to you (cry here, laugh
here). So, I can see why city was criticized. I do like Faraway MUCH
better. And i highly recommen Wim Wenders' films (Paris, Texas --not too
heavy on dialogue, and Until the End of the World--really good) I was
also wondering if anyone has seen Wings of Desire? Could you tell me
about it? Find FAraway, So Close! and rent it!!

3) I saw Third Eye Blind in Cleveland (openers Our Lady Peace :) and i
kept telling my friends (in a drunken fit) to scream for I will Follow.
Someone in front of me said they knew all the TEB songs, what was I will
Follow? So I had to explain. They left the stage and for the encore... I
WILL FOLLOW!!! I went ape sh*t and was jumping up and down (you'd
think Bono just came out and started singing) and just then
some guys right in front of me decided to mosh and one slammed into me.
Beer is the talker here because i reached into the group, grabbed a guy by
his throat and pulled him to me. I told him that if he and his friends
ruined this song for me I would kick his ass. WEll, perhaps he thought i
would because the guys stopped and i enjoyed I will follow. It's really
rad to hear them play it. I like U2 more, but i could feel the raw energy
of a band playing a new song. So, if Third Eye Blind is playing near you,
go see them. It was really exciting.

WEll, it's been a while and i'm glad to be back!\
Lucy
