"So you thought you might like to go to the show, To feel the warm thrill of confusion and space cadet glow? Is something eluding you, sunshine? Is this not what you expected to see? If you want to find out what's behind these cold eyes, You'll just have to claw your way thorugh this disguise." In The Flesh?, Pink Floyd ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Hello, And How Is It With You? (he asks in a fake Yiddish accent). PUT THAT PHONE DOWN BARBARA! And now for the weather report, right now it's raining cats and dogs, but this is due to lighten to merely kittens and puppies... (Put that chainsaw away now, I will not tell you again)... Yip yip yip yip yipyipyipyipyip... Drastic isn't it?... Of the two of us, I think the cat said it better... "Walk on, walk on with hope in your heart.".. Yes, and the trousers are a wee bit tight... AND DON'T YOU EVER COME BACK HERE AGAIN!!! *slams door* (Note: None of the above thoughts are those of the user. I'm not that coherent.) Zootlewurdle zootlewurdle zootlewurdle... ============================================================================== (And now for something completely the same, a man with two fish) NAME: Which one? I have so many. Currently, I'm know as Thaddeus P. Ritchards, Jamas Enright, Peter Markam, and (for some reason) Bill Og.

MY ATTITUDE TOWARDS CAFFEINE: (sacrilegiously ripped from Pink Floyd) I don't need no caffeine in me. I don't need no drugs at all. I don't need to drink my bloodstream. And I don't suffer from withdrawl. NO... I... DON'T SUFFER FROM WITHDRAWL All in all, it's just another Fix of the wall. All in all, you just get another Fix from the wall. (A wee explanatory note for the chorus. The wall is the wall around you built up by drugs.) (Originally, it was that "The Wall" by Pink Floyd was as addictive as caffeine, and therefore you could get a fix from it. The above interpretation still hold thou'.)

I gave up long ago) HOBBIES: Writing, Doctor Who (the TV series, not Alden), writing, other scifi, writing, D&D, writing, reading, writing, looking after my fish, writing, computers, writing, writing, and writing.

Donaldson (WF to him forever :) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CRYSTAL OF COMMAND by Jamas Enright The ball bounced up and down on the pavement, finally rolling to a stop in the gutter. As Darien bent down to pick it up, he caught a flash of something out of the corner of his eye. Looking further up the gutter, he saw a large regularly shaped crystal. It sparkled in the afternoon sun, and its shineness was just tempting enough to little boys who keep suchthings. Darien reached out and picked it up. The crystal was warm to the touch, and lay invitingly in his hand. He started deep into its glow. Its glow? Yes, now the crystal was glowing, shining with its own inner light. "Like me..." Darien jerked up. The voice... there was a voice in his head. "LOVE ME..." He twisted around, trying to see who was doing this to him. The voice was louder, more insistant, but Darien couldn't see the source of it. "WANT ME!!!" His eyes now focussed on the crystal. It was glowing white, burning white hot. He reflexivily let go of the crystal, and it tumbled to the ground, its inner light fading. Darien stared at the crystal. Now it was inert, lifeless. Darien becked away hesitantly, then turned and fled for his life. The man paused on his walk home. Everyday he took this route, but not every day he saw the crystal that caught his eye. He picked it up, constrasting the pale clearness of the crystal with the black of his palm. "Very nice," thought the man to himself. "It's a pity it's so small." "You would like me bigger?" The thought can straight into the man's head. He jerked upright in surprise. The crystal grew larger, grew outwards, grew around the man's palm, and up his arm. Soon the shoulder was covered. The man tried to scream but his head was soon coated by the crystal. In a few moments, all that remained was a crystal statue of stunning acceracy. All too soon the size diminished. The crystal shrunk, taking on it's normal proportions. It lay on the street glowing... ...wanting more.

(ie, the Wellington chapter of the New Zealand Doctor Who Fan Club) (My philosophy might be considered at detracting from the wonderfulness of this, but, if you don't like it, don't read it :) MY PHILOSOPHY: Everything that happens to the body can be interpreted as chemical changes. This also includes the mind. The mind is very much fundamentally interconnect with the body. Why else would it "shut down" when we sleep, why can't we keep thinking? If we are knocked unconscious, the mind goes "out" too. Brain damage can result in stranges modes of thinking. Therefore, the mind is interconnected to the body, and subject to laws (what they are, we don't know, but there are some). Therefore, given the laws and the variables, we could work out what would happen, what anyone person would do, in any situation. From this, all we follow are laws, and the future could be worked out. That is, we are just chemical changes, subjected to laws in everything we do and think. Therefore, there is no free will (as every action can be determined), and, equally, there is no "destiny" for humankind, as that would mean there is some "ultimate" reason for what we do, and there isn't. We just plod along, and follow our chemical laws. There is no reason for living or dying, it just happens. RELIGION: I don't have one. However, I do have a personal theory what means that God is Jupiter. Actually, I've thought about it for a bit, and decided that I'm an agnostic (although apathetic would be closer to the truth :) **To be updated when I get bored enough** I was last bored enough on 8-6-94 (This query file was brought to you without the aid of caffeine :) --------------------------------------------------------------------------Back to my Pad.
