Sinister: Please let me wonder...

[Walkn10 at xxx.com]

Wow, its been ages since you've last seen the likes of me around these parts. 
 About a month ago I ran out of things to say, and although this problem 
still lingers I've decided to override it and post anyway 'cause I'm dead 
bored.
I hope everyone's holidays were nice.  My friend left for Italy on a school 
trip a few days after Christmas, so I'm sure his New Years was good.  I spent 
mine sucking on a huaka and a keg with a few friends, which was nice and all 
but its the same thing I do every weekend.  I kind of wanted to bring in 2000 
in a different way than I bring in every other Saturday morning, but it was 
not to be.  While my friend sat somewhere in Rome hopefully having the time 
of his life with a young Tuscan blonde as the ball dropped, I listened to 
"Alan Alda's Millenium Phonecall" which for some reason was broadcasted 
across the globe.  You can't win them all I suppose...but ALAN ALDA?!
I changed majors at the university this week.  I had been planning to major 
in history for as long as I care to remember, but I eventually grew out of 
that.  Now I'm an Environmental Science major, which I suppose is about as 
far from history as one can get these days.  I'm betting that the Chesapeake 
Bay is going to be a goldmine for Environmental Scientists in the next few 
decades, so why not capitalize on that?  It beats sitting in stuffy 
historical societies trying to peice together events that happened hundreds 
of years ago while your own generation falls apart.  Billy Corgan once said 
that looking either backward or forward was a way of avoiding the present, 
and I guess he's right to some degree.  Then again, he wrote Starla so I 
guess anything the man says should be taken as a revelation.
I kinda like the idea of this new B&S package, especially because we can all 
buy the cases and not have to double up the discs.  I'd like to see the cover 
art too.  They've done blue, red, yellow, white, magenta, green and orange as 
album colors so I wonder whats they've cooked up now?  I'm guessing 
purple...anyone else care to chance?  Anyone know whether the discs will be 
the same ones we all have or whether they will have different art as well?
Did any UK listees catch Guided by Voices when they came over a few months 
ago?  I know they did a few nights in London in either Sept or Oct.
Well, the Terps game is on...later

PS- George Dickie: Wario is my new MarioKart man.  I think its either for the 
way he yells "Fire!" or "Waaaaaaa!" or a combination of both.
