from notanias :
i just wanted to let you know that i've moved diaries (unfortunate things happened). so i'll be updating over here, now. (the former) beatpoetgrrl
from f-i-n :
a flattened box within a box? That's so sad!
from serenaville :
I stumbled upon your space, and have enjoyed what I've read thus far. I've bookmarked your diary for continued reading in future, so please don't worry over any sudden spike in your stats, due to my nosy archive-diving. Take care! -Serena :)
from meccii :
thank jesus...or whatever amish god you subscribe to....you have updated. now I don't feel so lonely!
from sarahsmells :
Hi stranger. I don't know if you even read my shizzle anymore, but I'm locking the bitch up so I thought I'd send the info your way. username: amor password: vincitomnia I hope everything is good with you!
from jofetish :
Score! You updated! :) Umm...now I'm thinking about euthanizing Jofetish. She is sick...she is blah...she sits in her rocker and no one pays any attention to her because she doesn't write porn anymore...she is boringzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...WHA?!?....she is old...she is jaded. Yeah, death is knocking on her door. The only question is: should I go out quiet or with a bang? The quiet way would be to just not ever come back to this site. However, I think I prefer going out in Jason Mewes Jay-style..."goodbye all you fuck-fucks mother-mother fuck-fucks!". Yeah. That's cool.
from gabywuzhere :

from devian :

from nurse-girl20 :
Hi I was just wandering what is a red state?????????
from chikyblonde :
ok, the whole puppy bowl thing...i thought it was rather disturbing...like something a beastiality freak would watch. [shudders] but then again, I'm a cat person!
from chikyblonde :
I stumbled across your diary in the members directory. You make me laugh. You're a favorite now.
from crispystar :
thank you. i've been reading yours for a while now.
from soupergirl :
um yeah.....and I wanted to see if you got the memo on the TPS reports.....yeah....we're going to need you to come in on Saturdays. Okay?
from rite153 :
:tear: well, i hope you're bored more often!
from sugar-slit :
HEY!! Where'd you go? It's been months...are you ok, amishboy? I miss you.
from jfsuperstar :
stunt butt....fucking awesome. anyway stop by and visit anytime. jenfish superstar
from sugar-slit :
Where are you? It's been a long time...
from rite153 :
physical ed... ahh... the memories... i loved that quote of yours... i'm gonna post it up on my diary. just because it's sheer genius.
from theperson :
the physical appearance is a definately a young colonel sanders.
from rite153 :
aww! you're so cute!!!
from rite153 :
ha! look who's talking mr. "99 list as favorite (where the hell is the hundreth?!)" guy. i'm green with envy man! (no i'm not, because my writing doesn't amount to anything, whereas yours is f'ing awsome!)
from rite153 :
:gasp: i feel so honored that a guy that used to write in his school newspaper complimented my writing at some point! wow amishboy, you made my day! (i would kill for my writing to resemble yours... even in that review of depeche mode)
from rite153 :
awww, thank you so much
from the-pye-dog :
I obviously can't speak for all women, but I'm not really bothered by dating a shorter man. My boyfriend now is only 5'10 and I stopped counting once I reached 6'1.
from aleathiad :
is it possible that i could love everything you write too much??? sometimes i feel unfaithful because i wait to read what you have done each day. your last entry brought back fond seattle memories...ahh..those were the days drunk and coming home at 5 am...sometimes not making it home at all. alea
from rite153 :
you always manage to cheer me up =) that last entry was a riot!
from darlinrosie :
i think you're brilliant, i love you and you make me happy. i was sorry to hear you had a bad day.
from aleathiad :
hope you have a better day tomorrow. alea
from mestupchick :
(i tried to sign your guestbook but it rejected me...) mmmmm paris. as if putting a no girls allowed sign is going to make me flee from something promising the words "Paris Hilton's vagina." *sigh* anyways...i dont know what to tell you about the whole wedding thing. but i do agree that if i saw it happen in real life, i would lose respect for the person who fled the altar for the "interrupter." i mean...make some adult decisions please..its not dress-up. your words make me smile and so did your interesting facial slide show....you are now on my favourites. check me out sometime. (alana)
from aleathiad :
i think that you look very austere and french in the picutres where you are wearing black. you look french and mysterious. vavavoom! alea
from sugar-slit :
Can you please check out my most recent entry? I would really like to know what your take is on that issue. Thanks, I really appreciate it. http://sugar-slit.diaryland.com
from rite153 :
... and they're not necessarily party pictures... it's just us... doing bad things... sort of
from rite153 :
shh!! not too loud now! (j/p) actually... it's the content of the pictures which makes the camera off-limits to parental figures :wink wink: haha
from sugar-slit :
I SO HATE SHARON STONE!!! Is she so delusional that she doesn't realize that when a starlet-sexsymbol "makes it" at age 35 she doesn't have much more than 4 minutes of fame left? And what has she done since...Casino other than presenting awards at any awards show that will have her? And even in Casino she was over the hill. MY HATRED IS BACK, BABY!!
from tater-fay :
WHERE do you find things like Adam Curry's blog? I was looking at that for far too long...crazy stuff!! You are the king of pop culture! Seriously, you need to write a book of memoirs about you and pop culture, or you need to get a masters degree or a doctorate in pop culture, because you are the expert!! *sigh*..I miss Seattle.
from aleathiad :
oh yes indeed...i am the nomadic peoples of eolch. just me and my ring tailed lemurs. alea
from coolgirl568 :
Yeah dude, thanks for the fav! ^_^ You still rock! See ya!
from coolgirl568 :
Yeah dude, thanks for the fav! ^_^ You still rock! See ya!
from aleathiad :
i knew there was a reason why i loved you so....alea
from connie-cobb :
Dammit, I signed your guestbook & it said that "Oops! You can't sign again that fast!" but it was only my first time. Anyway, Scrubs is on Tuesday, or that's what my roommates are telling me & I think this hoohaa about Dean is retarded - his passionate hoodly-doodly made me like him more (I was a Clark fan, now I'm just ABB)...
from rite153 :
awww ::shed a tear:: thank you! i can always count on you, so you're not a bad friend, in fact, you're better than any of the friends i have here in vegas!
from tater-fay :
You should talk to another Diarylander about Nation States, he's always rambling about it...his user-name is chiv (he's on my buddy list) I think he's really into it. He can be quite aggressive..he'll probably try to occupy The Republic of Frenching, but who knows:)
from aleathiad :
at your suggestion i visited the nationstates and i now have a nation of my own. i am in the east pacific as well. my nation is called the nomadic peoples of eolch. you should let me know what our next takeover move shall be. we shall rule the world. (evil and sinister) ahhhhhhaahahaahahah!!!! alea
from darkoverlord :
So I'm given an assignment, see? Because I keep complaining about being bored I'm told to plug Dark Overlord to random people. You have an interesting screen name, thus, here I am. Check us out at DOL, we're super cool AND have awesome adventures.
from liv76 :
I have no idea how one gets to be a mixer(person-thing). I have this notion that if just wish hard enough the opportunity will present itself *hashahahahahah* poor deluded me. liv
from rite153 :
yeah man, a lot of things happen when you decide to abandon me ::pouts:: j/p thank you ever so much for signing the weird guestmap thingy... i think i'll go make out with the picture cut out i have of you now... you deserve it.
from moi-bella :
word he is. WORD he is... and uumm.. thank you. (?)
from dragonwench :
eeew, no, i heard he had the clap. *eeeeew*
from dragonwench :
*love*
from ameliarules :
hi. Your eyes are hot. Don't let stupid girl fool you. You are my hero, babe.
from moi-bella :
hello, just wanted to let you know that (concerning your last entry) everyone's parents are like that with the internet, they all write 2 lines and send you a bajillion of fowards... even if you live in the same house. By the way, you're diary is awesome, and pluck you're eyeborows, really, I'm only telling you this because I love you. (p.s: yeah, I guess you're tan is 'fading' get one of those fake tanning lotions, but not the strong ones, 'cause it wouldn't look good with your complexion and you would look like an oompa loompa on winter vacations. Oh! the things you learn from watching queer eye!)
from sugar-slit :
Good entry. It is spot-on. My 58 year old aunt works for the same institution as I do so she's actually INTERNAL email for me. When I started working here, I thought I'd send her a quick "Hi Aunt Andrea! How are ya? Look at me, we work for the same company!" Now I get 4 or 5 spiritual feel-good forwards a day from her! She doesn't actually know how to WRITE an email. Only how to "reply" or "forward".
from sugar-slit :
My parents remained faithful to my amazon wishlist and I was in shock! I, too, once loved Led Zeppelin and The Doors 12 years ago. I guess I still do. My favourite song by The Doors is "Changeling", which is actually difficult to find since it's not on every single one of their greatest hits compilations like "LA Woman".
from sugar-slit :
You call THAT a funny face?!?
from sugar-slit :
I can't watch movies in the theater anymore. I just hate sitting that close to gross people for that length of time. I take the subway everyday to work and that amount of close quarters is enough for my life.
from rite153 :
man, i already cussed! so i think that got thrown out the window already. and man! i totally saw you as a person who'd like jet! SERIOUSLY! it creeped me out to see you write it. and that thing about being a woman... i'm not quite sure if you can say that... i think it's safe to say i'm now a "true nerdy girl" or just a "hyper-geeky girl"... either one..
from aleathiad :
i can always count on you for a fine damn laugh. love the bit on the tortilla chips...i have been down that road. evil bastards. alea
from aleathiad :
i dont watch that show but what was the joke? oh do please tell. alea
from aleathiad :
you sleigh me! i used to live in seattle...fremont..wallingford...greenwood...greenlake. ahhhh...i miss my emerald city. aleathia
from ameliarules :
You are hilarious! :)
from sugar-slit :
Holy crap, your pop-up book is hilarious.
from secondborne :
It is known far an wide that I do not accept compliments well. One time this boy said I was beautiful and I told him to go fuck himself. : | I don't know whats up with that, but I just can't take them gracefully. I always end up rambling and gushing and my face gets all red. All you have to do is just say thanks, right? Its not that hard. But I just can't do it. Here's my effort at being graceful and modest and accepting of your very very nice compliment. Thanks.
from rite153 :
oh man. ha! i gotta tell you about that one! but to keep it short, nothing happened (i did send a portion of that artemis thingy... not pretty, man.)
from rite153 :
i'm not hatin'... if i was hatin on seattle, then you were hatin' on roy horn! oh wait.. you were!
from dragonwench :
you from nc then? it's such a small world, either way.
from rite153 :
man! you creep me out... you totally read my mind with the s/n! you should be happy to know that you have been placed in my buddy list under "homies"... a very coveted position! oh yeah, my aim s/n's xx13rite1xx (freaking long, i know... and it sounds like a porn s/n... but eh what can one do about it)
from blue-syrup :
yeah, the cubs suck, but not nearly as much as Steve Bartman who will no doubt find himself in a pool of his own blood before the week is out. i wish they could have won tonight so that Steve's life could be spared, but, such is life. also to complete any 1993 album collection you, of course, need the Joey Lawrence debut, which was far more entertaining that a bucket of cement. one more thing, have i mentioned lately that i love you?
from rite153 :
man, you took the words right out of my mouth... of course, yours were more coherent and articulate than mine... since i tend to invent words and misspell like nobody's business. 28 and 18... hmmm... lol
from vivakate :
[i tried this in gbook, but it didn't seem to work, forgive if there is repetition, but it's a point that must be noted]: i'm dead serious when i say that boys should revive the jake ryan sixteen candles look. sweater vest, rolled up jeans, big black clunky boots. i guarantee if you work that look in seattle you'll definitely bag a babe. xo, kate
from rite153 :
dude, your guestbook is wack. it doesn't let me sign it. and i had such great comments too...
from seamonsta :
You so crazy! I wanna have your baby! But in answer to the catholic question- nay the reunion has not happened yet. it gives me time to grow a mullet and fine some acid washed jeans.
from rite153 :
aww ::kicks the dirt:: you don't have to bullshit ::blush::.. haha!
from rite153 :
you're a "well-rounded" american and you don't know what "soda shoes" are? oh my. lol. those shoes are these.. weird ass platform "tennis shoes" that are about.. 4 inches tall. and a "hyna".. is what "gangsta's" (usually hispanic) call their "hoes".. or just.. hispanic "gangsta" girls who consider themselves rather "fine" in their own eyes. (a conceited gangsta girl.. for short)
from secondborne :
you're so nice. i appreciate that way more than you'll know. come to north dakota and make out with me.
from rite153 :
dude.. why do you feel the necessity to lock your diary all the time? i swear i get a heart attack when that little screen pops up at me! anyway.. just fyi.. i know why you do it.
from secondborne :
thank god for paul simon inspired fashion decisions. i'd be lost without him.
from rite153 :
it's the rejects cartoon on the template huh? those little guys tickle my heart. anyway.. did amishboy just say i cracked his ass up? pinch me, i'm dreaming! haha. yeah, i notice the folks that like what i write are either really happy campers or suicidal teens. hmm... orale homes, ay te veo (i WILL turn you.. trilingual in some time.. it doesn't take much talent)
from jofetish :
oh, alright...the pressure! heh. i have msn messenger and aol...screennames are the same for both...SISSYLMY. [email protected] and [email protected] have a few others, but we'll see if you are able to handle these before you advance. heh...i'll be waiting ;)
from jofetish :
okay, you've done it...you've brought a tear to my eye with your carnival/fair entry...from laughing so damn hard! you're silly...would you like to have my silly babies and we can live in a silly world?
from rite153 :
ok.. let me confess something... yes, i had been reading your diary for.. quite some time.. but today i had SO much free time.. that i sat here and read.. 3/4 of your diary.. and let me just say: DAMN, ARE YOU FUNNY! but you already knew that didn't you?
from dana-elayne :
Ahhhh, might I join you in this 80s downward shame spiral? I just got in my wee little hands the "High School Reunion" boxed set. What screams 80s more than Farmer Ted, Chet, and Bender? The 80s....man, that was the decade!
from rite153 :
yeah.. that hooking up doesn't always work (like me and that 35 year old...), so it aint always great, unless the matchmaker is myself. haha. yeah.. that drawing is my feeble attempt at doing something "artistic".. it would help if my scanner actually WORKED. but what can ya do with a hot scanner, ya know? j/p
from jofetish :
but, i want to see some amishcrack...*pouts*....cute pics. would you like me to make you a cake someday? maybe, one shaped like a barn? i bet i could make one faster than you can build one. heh.
from rite153 :
oh lala.. amish delight! haha. cute kid man!
from rite153 :
moving back to mexico does seem tempting... yet again.. i don't like the mugging that goes down there.. at least some people manage to survive the muggings here.. but over there.. not so sure.. lol
from rite153 :
thanks, that really means a lot to me.. it even brings tears to my eyes..=*)
from rite153 :
::wipes forhead:: what a relief! i can now laugh again. in other news...AMISHBOY CALLED ME COOL!! ::jumps up in the air and <u>TRIES</u> to click her heels::
from cruznmazrati :
hey. just caught up on your journel. sorry to hear about your grandmother. really am sorry. if you need anything dont hessitate to call.
from rite153 :
aww! i can no longer be enlightened by your wit and humor! your locking of the diary saddens me..::tear:: lol take care!
from seamonsta :
You're quite the haha guy yourself today. When I get dvr- I will set it to record every episode of Too Close for Comfort, burn them onto a dvd, and give it to you as my dowry. Then, maybe, I will be worthy to be called Mrs. Amishboy. Our children will churn butter to this song. http://www.meredy.com/cosmiccow/tooclosewav.wav
from falo :
Hello Amish. I have an enhancement for you on your random searches. (I sometimes have to find people as a part of my job) You can use [email protected] middle @ is an "e". It will give you general info at no charge, you can take it from there.
from tessarooski :
Do not worry about monopolizing my notes, I would do the same to you if I did not think you would become annoyed with my constant praise for your witty humor, amazing personality and beautiful soul. I hope your life is good.
from thecritic :
This friendster thing both baffles me and makes my bum tingly. Gah! Brain overloading.
from katehackett :
Yeah, friendster lost it's allure for me too. Quite quickly. Hey...what's up with your username? You're clearly not amish...;o)
from vivakate :
i knew you'd have my back homie. seriously, am i gonna get jacked with a sock full of lipsticks this weekend? i heard britney's bodyguard is looking for work; i'm totally calling him. if it came to an all out war, i'd imagine it like the outsiders, except it would be dlanders vs babyphat not socs vs greasers...
from jofetish :
thanks for the note. it made my heart race just a bit. a nice southern girl with a hilarious seattle guy...hmmmmmm....could be a nice fantasy. *the hamsters are spinning the wheel in my head*
from seamonsta :
you must read these: http://meccii.diaryland.com/index.html and http://mix-tapes.diaryland.com/
from babeskitty :
oh i forgot to ask you, you wouldnt happen to like the movie "stuart saves his family" would ya???
from babeskitty :
oh my god- you love all the same movies as me!!! "Do you know how sad it is to know that your sons only sexual out let, is tossing off to magazines in the bathroom?" "OH GARY" "MA, I NEVER TOSSED OFF TO ANYTHING!" "YOU TOLD ME YOU WERE COMBING YOUR HAIR" "BUT I WAS, I WAS"-weird science "i think hes gonna pork her dad"- european vacation. you're just great!~toria~
from mykindagal :
Am SO CLOSE to being able to go to bars! What are your recommendations for when I turn the big 2-1?
from catamaran :
Once upon a time on a small lake in PA there lived a lot of kids, among them was a small little blond girl who had a strange fondness for the name Terryonka. Now she lives in a small yellow house in MA and misses all her old friends, particularly a boy with crusty elbows! EMAIL ME! (all lowercase, lastname then first name @hotmail.com) Any problems talk to the twin.
from soupergirl :
how's life out west? have you experienced any of that drink they have out there, "cawfee?" it's a bit of stretch from martinelli's, but i've been hearing rave reviews about it.
from toshchaya :
Were you really Amish? People call me "amish-girl" because of how I was raised, so your name really piqued my interest. The "intro to me" on my diarypage tells my story, I'd love to hear yours!
from connie-cobb :
Eva Braun thought the Golden-Shower King was dead sexy. Maybe you'll find your own Eva Braun?
from bchsphantom :
Alrighty, so I'm curious amishboy: have you been raised Amish and have recently left the community? I'm truly fascinated with the Amish lifestyle, so if you'd like to, email me at [email protected] so we can talk more. ~bchsphantom
from reddirtgirl :
Yeah, the stuff at the end was pretty cool I guess, but by that time I had lost all ability to suspend my disbelief. I was still waiting for Zul to show up and do it with the nerdy little guy. p.s. Let's hang out this summer, okay?? You are 2cool2b4gotten!! xoxo, rdg
from bookwench31 :
So I go to leave a message in your shiny new guestbook and the page won't load. *frowns intently at computer* So I have to just leave a boring old note instead. Oh well such is life.
from connie-cobb :
Dear amishboy, why don't you have a guestbook? Love, connie/colleen
from mrs-roboto :
Some accents are endearing. I like listening to an old Southernly gentleman talk for example. And even the Maine accent seems less grating in an older man but damn, the Boston accent is just so awful. It doesn't help that the people it's attached to are my in-laws.
from itzie :
I get those email spams about increasing the size of my penis too. And I don't even have one.
from coldradio :
I'll tell you if I get any hate mail.
from vivakate :
if you are ever in boston and there happens to be a "kick ass show" you can totally be my partner in crime...in seattle, i'm sure "the scene" will be 9million times better. you can sneak over to portland and hang out with the dandy warhols!
from seamonsta :
I happen to be dying as we speak. I can't breathe and I have class at 6:30. I work til 5. Totally foosin'/drinkin' in between. You know me! (I'm down with OPP)
from louveciennes :
Anytime is a good time for ice cream, silly! And I? Happen to be from Titan, not Venus.
from lrig :
you are too adorable for words. when are you coming through salt lake to visit me?
from vivakate :
oh dear. those are effing adorable.
from reddirtgirl :
Are you kidding me? Those are way. too. cute. And actually, I might be onboard for an eventual migration back to the Carolinas. We'll talk it over in 2005 or so.
from mrs-roboto :
How about "Seattle or Bust Disclaimer: I am poor and have nothing but this car to my name."
from tater-fay :
"No more tears"..Johnson's baby shampoo!! Ps..when do you arrive in Seattle? We all MUST have a meeting..Mrs. roboto, reddirtgirl, you and I and a bottle of..tequila? Mescal? Bailey's? (I opt for the bailey's)..I think tequila might make me violent..but I can't quite remember! Have fun on your road trip and BE SAFE!! (No sex with strangers at rest-stops!)
from reddirtgirl :
"Where nothing awaits you," my butt.
from lrig :
i would give up my two weeks in london for one snog with you.
from swtapplpie :
i think your "points" rock the page! "Artax, please! you have to try, you have to care! please, Artax, PLLLLLEEEEEAAAAAASSSSSEEEEE!" i mean you've explained it ingeniously through pictures.....in essence..our lives.....A never-ending stooo----hoorrr----eeeeee, ahh-ahh, ahhhh, ahh-ahh, ahhhhh, ahh-ahh, ahhhhhh!
from coldradio :
Hall of Fame entry!
from tater-fay :
Praise Jesus, Jebediah..I think I LOVE You. Oh, and that picture of the drowning horse..*sniff*..what was the outcome?
from vivakate :
dear god, somebody found an eighties webpage! that rocks. i welled up a bit when i clicked on the pic of the girl in the wheelchair from different strokes - she never allowed anyone to make her feel lesser because she was "different" - tough little chick. and dear geri, who my friend does a fantastic/terrible imitation of...i thought i was gonna click on a still of the arnold/dudley gets molested episode, remember when the guy showed them the dirty cartoon and then tried to touch dudley (arnold booked in out of there and left him in the hands of a pedophile!)? in the words of vh1, i love the 80s...
from reddirtgirl :
That's Megan Follows with Jo. Megan Follows! Anne of Green Gables! That was some funny shit. I'm glad you have so much time on your hands.
from itzie :
Looks like you have to meet RDG's friend, T-Rock. We shall set you up if/when you come out.
from fussbudget :
I read "Tunnel Vision" in about a day as well. It helps that I am completely obsessed with the London Underground. The London Transit Museum is somewhere I've visited all three times I've been to the city.
from swtapplpie :
so charlotte wants to show a boobie or two? she's got to do something with the competition out there....i mean there's blanche, elise keaton, maggie seaver, and mrs. roper out there for crying out loud!!!!!
from soupergirl :
Totally hit Tunnel Vision last year. You should revisit Cheese Monkeys, or perhaps The Picture of Dorian Gray. A little Wilde goes a long way in the spring time. Holy cleav mrs. garret!
from louveciennes :
Some women have very short torsos, making their waist appear very high. And it's probably exacerbated by the fact that she is siting down. I sure didn't need a gratuitous cleavage flash from Mrs. Garett though. Great googly moogly!
from vivakate :
sweet jesus, mrs. garrett!!!
from tessarooski :
I am always on the lookout for good books to read and now "Tunnel Vision" is on my list. Thanks for the find! Oh, and you're right, some people do need to learn how to keep their junk in the trunk.
from soupergirl :
be on the lookout for some snail mail.
from tater-fay :
I'm not sure that the abbreviation for "would" and "will" is entirely southern. I definetly have a tendency to abbreviate those words just as you mentioned and I'm orignally from Central Illinois. However, I think there are some commonalities (sp?) between some Southern and some Mid-Western dialects and word usage...DAMN..I need to get a masters in linguistics, dude!
from lrig :
thank you for the nice!
from bookwench31 :
I notice the "d" thing all the time. I completely knew what you were talking about. In fact I think I've even found myself doing it. *shudder* I shall make an effort to include all my words when I speak. Oh and that Highlander dream...that's so my daydream.
from reddirtgirl :
Yay, so exciting! I would be jumping out of my pants if I were you. You are going to have such a great trip out here.
from louveciennes :
oops make that Williams
from louveciennes :
They already made a live-action musical of Popeye, years ago! Robin Willims played him!!
from reddirtgirl :
Basically, the short version of the story is that I went on a blind date with a guy who was wearing one, and I knew it wasn't going to go very well. As it turned out, the guy a.) had a REALLY hard time picking up the pieces after Phish broke up, and b.) seriously believed in a heaven that was a giant, endless video arcade.
from maaikeb :
They already made a live-version of Popeye with Robin Williams... great idea... The signs... after long consideration, I think you just see what you want to see and it's an excuse if you end up making the 'wrong' decision. Hmm, that's not very positive, is it? You know what would be extra cool? If they made hobbit holes in either Seattle or Charleston - then you'd know where to go! Or think about making one your own and figure out what's the best place to do it..? Uhm, never mind...
from reddirtgirl :
Your jewelry progression is fascinating! Did you see my reference to shell necklaces for men in my other journal?
from louveciennes :
It's a myth that we only use 10% of our brains. I refer you to snopes: http://66.165.133.65/index.html
from tater-fay :
I think it's only about 10% of the brain that most people use (I think many, including Dubya use far less than that!) Speaking of writing letters on PAPER and mailing through snail-mail, the art is not COMPLETELY lost...Why, I just wrote and mailed two letters today!
from reddirtgirl :
What do you mean, IF you move to Seattle?
from lrig :
dood. secret of nimh, and massive amounts of funnybrainsmarttruecleveraction happening. all in one place. ...sigh... yes. oh yes. still the internet crush are you.
from vivakate :
wow. that was the best/most interesting thing i've read on diaryland in ages...you should read "the tipping point" - there is an entire chapter on sesame st and how kids now get a little bored with it, so a new idea is birthed (blues clues) that takes ss's techniques to the next level. check it out if you have time; it's more interesting than just that, although it should be periodically revised as times change (i think it was written in 2000 or 2001). ps. secret of nimh? you rule.
from reddirtgirl :
First of all, I had no idea I was your sweatheart! I don't actually know what that is, and it sounds kind of gross, but I'm still honored. Second of all, thanks for the compliment to my haiku. I think it's by far the best poem I've ever written about potted meat.
from lrig :
no, not cheating. more like yr own 'the secret'. but that you really keep.
from itzie :
Pah! Me, Sarcastic? You let me know how those Jesus Abs are coming.
from itzie :
Yeah, and maybe if I drink a whole flat of slim fast I'll have a figure like Kate Moss.
from sarahsmells :
Hello there, Sparky. I saw that you added me as a favorite, so I did the same. Your diary makes me giggle like a school boy.. except, I don't go to school, and I'm not a boy. :)
from lrig :
you never answered...about the love affair. mr. evasiveface
from vivakate :
there is a little prince movie, but it's a musical...very low budget special effects. the highlight? gene wilder as the fox...stroke of brillance!
from maaikeb :
just keep giving me compliments. I really don't mind :) oh, and I tracked down your kool aid acid (or something) book, found it and I'm going to check it out next week or so. they have it at three different university library - I guess it's really good then.
from louveciennes :
Dude! The Westing Game!! GET OUT OF MY BRAAAAAAAAAAIN!!!
from reddirtgirl :
You do not want my job. Actually, I wonder if they'd even hire a man--it's pretty much a Traditional Workplace, where Men Are Men and Women Answer Phones. If you think you can work on a high falsetto, though, I'll put in a good word for you. (And thanks for the congrats.)
from party-on :
Hi, you should definitely visit New Orleans. And we can get drinks or something. Yes.
from lrig :
are you having a secret love affair? cause i had a dream that you were. and also? you had better stop in the slc. it will be a good time, promise!
from tessarooski :
Hey kiddo! I have been stalking you for what seems like forever now (more like six days; the amount of time in which it took me to read your entire diary). You crack me up like no other. Keep up the good work!
from vivakate :
i can forward you the email with all the info...do you have an email address i can send it to?
from seamonsta :
My new main squeeze was Trinity for Halloween. She says if I am good, she will put on the outfit again. I am waiting patiently with my hands folded...
from stardwarf :
I'm glad you explained because I didn't understand at all... of course, I'm incredibly dense. Like lead. Or something.
from maaikeb :
First of all: I try the fingers-snapping thing too, but people always think I'm weird, don't know why... Second: I'd appreciate your help/comments very much! Just send me anything you'd like to say about the subject. I wrote the book title down and now I'm hoping I can find it somewhere, which could be difficult, since it's Holland. But I AM going to try. With the (mental) support, I feel I can pull this off... Thanks!
from hellonasty :
will you marry me? haha i'm really just kidding. I almost shit me britches when i your name! I <3 Amish people. I always tell people i am Amish....weeee, if you don't mind, i'm gonna add you as a fave diary... if you don't want me too, please let me know. BYE! :)
from mrs-roboto :
Well, I am a big proponent of the North (i.e. Ballard and Fremont). Here are my reasons, 1) great bars 2) live music and 3) cheap rent. Pete and I rented a two bedroom house for a mere $750.00 back before we bought the money pit. Fremont can be a bit pricier with its upscale eating establishments and vintage shops. Also the commute to downtown is a mere 15 minutes by bus. When driving I can do it in less than ten. I have seen studios in the area going for as low as $450. Shared housing situations can be even cheaper. Parking is plentiful and the neighbors are great. My second favorite spot is Georgetown but I wouldn�t live there as a newcomer � a little too industrial but a great scene.
from lrig :
i leave on the 20th. im back on the 2nd. of may. pleasepleasepleasePLEASE say that im not going to miss the amishness in the town.
from fussbudget :
Yay Seattle! I am so jealous. Philadelphia will have to do for me. Congratulations. I admire anyone who can pull up stakes and head for another state. Enjoy PBR, it's an Athens institution!
from itzie :
No WAY! Really? You're REALLY coming here? I thought for sure we'd lost the battle. YAY! And do try to be here by July 4th if you can - that's when the take-my-breath-away-ness officially starts every single day until Summer ends in early October.
from lrig :
i am officially jealous. will you and all the fun dland seattle folk come and visit me in slc? [ill keep the momos at bay! i promise!]
from tater-fay :
whoo...Seattle in the summer is PERFECT!! We should all have a Seattle D-landers convention (what would our "outfits" consist of?) here once you've settled. I know alot of bars that serve PBR (and micro-brews!)I really hope you find SEattle to be all you've dreamed of..it is the Emerald City (and Jet City) and Junkie City and...
from mrs-roboto :
Cool. I'm keeping an eye out for jobs.
from reddirtgirl :
Oh my god--so you're actually COMING HERE?? Sorry, I am really dense. See, this is what I mean--everything has to be spelled out for me in big letters. (Of course I know the Sizzlean commercial. I just thought you were making a weird fat joke about Frazier.)
from reddirtgirl :
I don't get it.
from soupergirl :
My notes are totally all Ronnie, all day long. You missed a helluva' party the other night. This diary has been a good way to document the sauce. Now if I could only figure out how to apply some type of monetary quotient to that sauce, I could pay for an apt. for both of us in the big city.
from soupergirl :
If you are going to go ahead with all this movie madness, I demand to be an extra. Maybe you can add a scene where Amishboy brings home an real live Indian girl, after we've been caught by the Jones's when we were having a quick shag in the hay paper mill, which was the end result of one too many Jameson's at Club Metropolis! Viva la Grove!
from swtapplpie :
what? you mean "physical" isn't about a work out! you've ruined everything.....now i can never listen to my favorite song the same again! oh woe is me!!! what a dirty dirty world we live in, "oliva, you've ruined everything! i thought you were a good girl! like me..we were a team. we worked out together. i just thought you wanted to get in shape real real bad. and all this time, the hours i preached at you of how you had a beautiful body and shouldn't obsess so much over getting physical! we're over, dammit!OVER!"...sorry amishboy, i'm not mad at you for bringing me to this harsh realization. you are simply the messenger. olivia is the devil here..... ;)
from connie-cobb :
IT WOULD TOTALLY RULE TO HAVE PULP COVER "TURNING JAPANESE"! I REALIZE I'M SHOUTING, BUT I'M VERY EXCITED.
from tater-fay :
But what we all want to know if whether your leg-warmers match your blue shirt?
from vivakate :
um yeah, inspired by newton-john's song physical, i was "her" for halloween one year. i wore a sasson sweatshirt, double ponytails, a sweatband around my head (with one of those glowsticks tucked into it - what the fuck was i thinking?). people thought i was "workout girl", i would correct them and say i was "olivia newton john in physical" and then proceed to sing a few bars. my christ, i can't believe what a weird kid i was...
from reddirtgirl :
I've always thought that every sequel should be subtitled "Electric Boogaloo." It just has such a nice ring.
from coldradio :
Hey, Raleigh is both city and country all at the same time! wink wink
from coldradio :
I would like to think of myself as the "glass is two times too big" person.
from party-on :
Yeah, it is pretty cool. All blue and white with a limbful tree. Dave has one hanging in his room - that's how we got on the subject of favorite states. I know you like S.C. What's your favorite though? Is it between S.C.and WA? Do you like my cool abbreviations?
from reddirtgirl :
Wow, your suggestions are way better than mine. I love the Fake Millionaire one the most.
from lrig :
OHMYFUCK! hahahaha! baby spice/warrior spice. oh geesh. you are funny. [too many exclamation marks make people angry. but i really am enthusiastic.]
from vivakate :
if you moved to boston, we could share a joint and i wouldn't judge you if you became quiet or introspective. it affects everyone differently, i just happen to get more verbose when i am "on the pot". i have a friend who is extremely bright and witty, but when he smokes he becomes self-conscious and stupid and witless. everyone's different, like snowflakes!
from mrs-roboto :
JP Patches - another selling point for Seattle. Actually, Itzie and RDG have me keeping a look out for jobs for you. Many things cross my desk.
from reddirtgirl :
A HERMIT mouse? That's not even a mouse option!
from roverrandom :
your diary is quite nice, but if you want something that feels like jazz between the legs... roverandom.diaryland.com!!! AI!
from tater-fay :
move to Seattle. It's lovely here..then we can meet and talk about amish quilts, good cheese and why buttons are so over-rated!
from vivakate :
you're the only one who answered! so you of course totally rule my world today...i can think of no one else i'd rather have internetly stalk me. how fun! may the force be with you...hee hee.
from weddingbells :
hey boy - where you been? - so i have no idea how to get in touch with you so this is all i could think of. i need to vent and you need to help me ;) so call the house and we will chat -- :)-- are you going to come into town before i leave the south for good ?? ok byeeee
from bookwench31 :
Actually I'm from north Georgia, although I venture down south occasionaly. I have friends from Tatnall county, and Savannah is my favorite town. Of course being from north georgia, anything south of the Atlanta airport is "south georgia" By the way, good luck with your move. Whatever you choose to do it will be fantabulous!
from lrig :
slc is pretty neato, too.
from seamonsta :
Yes!!! It can be like that movie Trading Places. You know the one with Eddie Murphy. I can milk cows and make quilts for a week and you could spend yours in the bathroom with 4 girls! Just put on a wig. They will all call you that really tall girl with no boobs. It will be great fun!
from ping-arisa :
Thank you! :)
from louveciennes :
I just wanted to say that I totally feel your pain. I was dithering most of last year between staying in the Bay Area and moving to Austin, TX. I finally decided to stay and it's a huge weight off to have decided!
from emeraldtiger :
it's a huge decision for anyone to have to make. and i understand the whole behind-the-scenes factors...so many things have to be considered. whatever you decide, good luck. wherever you go, there's sure to be a good bakery ;) also, i've never been to charleston but everyone says it's so beautiful. i would love to see it. i've been in raleigh once, and know a couple of people there who say it's a good area to live. good luck. and if you're stressed out about it, just pick up more sedaris.
from bookwench31 :
Being a sex nazi isn't as easy as you might think. There's lots of work invovled, and not so much sex. Are you sure you want to commit to that?
from itzie :
No kidding! I went to see Phone Booth last night too - against my better judgement. I'd read that it was awful, but it was there and I needed to see a movie.
from tearose :
AHHH! i come home and see the layer of pollen on my car. and then i read this. AH! so funny. i love it. katie
from party-on :
Hello, my fabulous Amish friend. Yes, my shoes are pretty orthopedic-looking. The have no laces or buttons - one Velcro strip per shoe and that's it. They're incredibly practical, and are even more comfortable than they are practical! Yes, I'm a Communist. Really. I have never seen a Communist musical, though, so thanks for the suggestion...Communism is a state of mind. And PS, you are a very funny guy.
from emeraldtiger :
that's the only book i have. i've heard "naked" is pretty good. he has a few others as well. you can find sedaris reviews on amazon.com. summer is definitely the best time to go to seattle, as i'm sure you've heard. spending july there was awesome and i'd do it again in a heartbeat!
from lrig :
and that was the damn near funniest thing i have ever read in my entire life ever! pollen. ick. ill start walking around outside with doctors masks on. and full latex suits. no fungi for me please!
from lrig :
dood. two of my friends are AT highpoint right now. theyre our furniture and home decor buyers. for the website. i work with them. thats so weird!
from louveciennes :
I need a cigarette now. O_o
from bibulous :
sorry I don't, but I liked the entry, though.
from jess-22 :
Thanks for the advice. A NyQuil flavored erotic cake just might do the trick. Hope you have fun too. Take care.
from theshivers :
tarheel blue sky, cold Sierra Nevadas and David Sedaris ....that is a DAMN fine way to spend the day!
from emeraldtiger :
david sedaris and a nice cold beer.....a great way to spend a beautiful afternoon. "me talk pretty one day" is absolutely hilarious!
from jess-22 :
Wow, I never knew anyone who could mention their mother and erotic cake shops in the same breath. You are truly a gifted writer! lol :)
from reddirtgirl :
Okay, so the bakery is covered, but I know a good taxidermist. Not everyone can make the squirrels' little clothes fit properly, but this guy is a genius! Also, I'm not happy about this Charleston trip. Also, I love your mom. She might be my soulmate.
from itzie :
Damn it. Two people already beat me to telling you about the erotic bakery. And as for housing, I was just looking at cooperative housing notices yesterday and there are a few even down in the $300/month range though most seem to be in the $400 range. Abby's apartment manager is actually reducing her rent - a studio with a wood floor, a separate kitchen and entry and a gorgeous view - into the $500 range.
from mrs-roboto :
I was going to mention the erotic bakery in Wallingford too but Emerald tiger beat me to it.
from emeraldtiger :
hey amishboy! so you're really thinking about moving to seattle? i don't live there but spent a good part of last summer there. a wonderful, lovely city. and you know, they do have a place i know about called the erotic bakery on 45th street in the wallingford district. ;)[i know about it but have never been, in case you wondered]... in all seriousness, though, i loved the city and bet you can find reasonable apts in the udistrict, capitol hill....and also ballard has some hidden gems as far as housing go. good luck w/ your decision. i'll keep reading along.....
from wall-of-rain :
Thank you so much :)
from bibulous :
Thanks for making me smile today. South central pennsylavania..priceless.
from itzie :
Ok, boy. I've pulled out the big guns. If this doesn't get you thinking about Seattle, I don't know what will. Concentrate on those tulips. They should be in full bloom in about two weeks. You could make it out here in time.
from soupergirl :
If I can add in my two cents, Charleston is closer than Seattle, for me. I don't know if I can handle the move so far away. But then, I can always come out to Seattle and do that whole PacNorthWest thing the kids are always holla'n about. Just to throw out another option, how about the big apple? So fun, and shash and peter are right on the cusp!
from louveciennes :
Bullet holes the size of Big Macs!
from reddirtgirl :
By the way, did you notice that Captain Von Trapp himself left me a note in my guestbook? You wouldn't happen to know anything about that, would you?
from reddirtgirl :
There is nothing wrong with frat boys. My father and brother were--are? I guess you're brothers for life and all that--frat boys. A frat boy is leading this great nation of ours to kill dangerous brown people! I love frat boys. (I'm enjoying your new incarnation inside Itzie's guestbook, by the way. sneaky!)
from maaikeb :
cool, now I know officially four people (you, me, my dad and a friend of mine) who can appreciate good music! the rest of the world just doesn't know what it's missing...
from lrig :
i like amishboy. a lot. he should post more pictures. of his shoes. and of the view out of his car window. and of his face in the rearview mirror.
from coldradio :
Two things.....1) I stand in defiance to the NC BBQ bashing! Long live pepper vinegar! FYI, SC is best, but NC is gaining ground fast. 2) Think about how long you have to work to pay your taxes. I think on average, approx 4 months of work to equal tax...
from lrig :
'papa', i would like to be 'the mamas'. may i have an audition?
from reddirtgirl :
I guess TECHNICALLY, you can't really call dry bbq "sauce," as sauce implies moisture of some kind. But you know what I mean. As for naming a kid Q, I'd say that the kid would either have to become a superhero or develop a sincere love for all things sci fi. Any single letter would pretty much be doom as far as names go, though, I would think. Did H have friends?
from louveciennes :
I dunno, I kind of like that vinegary sauce. The plain fact of the matter is that I never met a BBQ sauce I didn't like. I like BBQ in all its wonderful variations.
from reddirtgirl :
Memphis actually specializes in "dry" bbq sauce. The wet vs. dry debate looms pretty large there.
from swtapplpie :
SC Q is the best! NC Q....hate to bash my current homeland but sucks big A. What's that BBQ place in Clemson that's the BOMB? i need some good barbie in my blood, its getting thin...
from vivakate :
you rule. thanks for the compliment (and the link)!
from maaikeb :
Wow, thanks for your answer! It's funny because in Holland the French are known for their chauvinism - they mostly refuse to speak anything else than French. But I guess your encounters with French are the same as most foreigner's encounters with the Dutch. Good point about the US/Spanish situation as well, because we also discussed the loss of ID because of all the immigrants... But anyway, you obviously agree, that europeans don't really have a love for their identity, so that'll be some reason why people are afraid. Thanks again!
from bookwench31 :
No Renee looked like she was going to puke. If she'd won she'd have thrown up right there on TV. She didn't just look nervous, she looked like a frightened asain chipmunk (had to get it all in)
from louveciennes :
No, Renee Zellwegger is slowly becoming a CHIPMUNK. Seriously, look at those puffy cheeks and scrunched-up eyes; I think she's hoarding nuts or something.
from reddirtgirl :
Well said. I wave my private parts at their aunties.
from reddirtgirl :
p.s. Yeah, Kurt was the little round-faced rambunctuous one. Ernst was the Nazi. We'll have to make sure Itzie doesn't get mixed up with him!

You're class of '94?? Sweeeet.
from piilu :
Actually the answer's in the entry. the next line goes 'Know the word's "discreet" when part-time lovers'. PS most of my 'short descriptions' are quotes and you're sweet. :) It's 5.30 PM over here and i'm going to have a weekend! Take care!
from wyndspirit :
About time somebody gives the media the credit they deserve! There is a reason I don't own a TV and seldom listen to the radio.
from itzie :
Don't forget me! Can I be Lisl? I'm going to take down my curtains tonight and make a dress. - Also, for the record, I am not "surprised" that the government is ignoring me, as usual, I'm just pissed with them as always and wondering what it would be like to live in a real democracy. - And finally, re: jackhammering etc - apparently, someone needs to get laid. Yeesh.
from reddirtgirl :
Who could resist an invitation like that? I'm packing my rucksack right now! I think you should be Captain Von Trapp, though--he has that whole appealing crunchy-on-the-outside, squishy-in-the-middle thing going on. Or maybe Kurt. I always liked Kurt. "So long, farewell, adieu auf wiedersehen . . ."
from tearose :
hi!@ i hope you are doing well. uh, i dont really know how to describe the music of the band, (everyone in a band says that to sound unique i know_)i'll just say good ole rock and rollll. (we aint no doves, shucks) i know there is a radio station benefit show for 103.1 coming up..im pretty sure we are playing, not positive when. if you get the station..you should listen to tornadoboy's radio show..if you are up that early. its at 7am, ends at 9-friday mornings. ITS HOT. hope you have a great day!

hey thanks for the note--yeah i'll give you access. do you have an e-mail address i can send you the info at? :)

you are the KING of 80s references!
from powerpuffmoi :
Hiya, thanks for the message! Yeah, I've seen the photo(s) of Richey from the Manics with his arm cut up. It wasn't his name he carved into it though, it was "4REAL". Anyway :) To answer your question, I'm from Canada, but am in the UK until August 8, when I return to Canada to finish my last year of uni. BAH, I say! BAH!
from maaikeb :
I'm very sorry to dissapoint you, but with the new government the laws on asylum seekers have become stricter. And as the government is also quite pissed with the US (i.e. Bush) right now... I wouldn't get my hopes up. But as you still need a proper job and everything you could try becoming some academic at the University here. Then I'd definitely marry you - that would give me some status as well... About Holland: I know the meaning of Nether-lands, so I think this means something like empty/hollow land. But the Dutch use it only for two provinces, the ones where Amsterdam (North Holland) and The Hague (South-Holland)... Uhm, I'd better stop this history lesson, not interesting at all!
from soupergirl :
juice boxes. how about capri sun? nothing like warm fruit punch stagnating in aluminum foil?

just mentioning 80s myself. i love being a product from the almighty decade! and may i suggest two juice boxes, you're a big boy now and don't want you to go thirsty! you need your vitamin C!

hello! uhm, 'take my breath away'..well, it takes my breath away too.
from vivakate :
oh god, could there be a better song than van halen's "panama" ("reach down between my legs and ease the seat back...") i love david lee roth in the eighties so much. totally would have been his groupie. now he's just sad and pathetic. a few other 80s jams worth mentioning (that practically make me drive off the road when i hear them): need you tonight by inxs, rio by duran duran and head over heels by tears for fears...i wish there was video footage of you getting down to like a surgeon...
from powerpuffmoi :
how exciting!!!! i want drama!!!! hmm, i'll attempt to create internet drama by saying that um.. well... oh good god i can't even create INTERNET DRAMA! HOW BORING!!!
from stardwarf :
Well, I missed giving you any kind words because I haven't kept up with my buddy list like I should. Glad it all worked out though. You could have been kicked out of the amish. Or something.
from stinckley :
Sounds a little like Sgt. St. Germain revisited (that WAS you, right?) If I don't see a t-shirt in the mail before the week is out, you're off my christmas card list.

Thanks baby. Look at us--a free man and a future librarian! Life is sweet, yo.
from vivakate :
i can't believe you quoted peggy sue right back at me. if i didn't before (i did), i now hold you in the highest regard...if you could hear me, i'd sing you "i wonder why" in the nic cage voice...
from itzie :
Hey! I didn't know about the t-shirts! Can I still order one? Congratulations on the dropped charges and happy trails wherever you go next!
from amishgirl :
yeah bro! i'm so glad that you guys called me today with the awesome news. so you are moving up when?
from coldradio :
YES!!!! Pickens County's finest be damned! When are you leaving C-town?
from maaikeb :
cool, congrats! enjoy the celebrations
from virginmary :
hooray for dropped charges!
from louveciennes :
I was all set to bake a cake with a file in it, but now I don't have to. Mmm, cake.
from vivakate :
congrats! good thing, because how would you write updates from prison???
from stinckley :
I, also, am going to assume that our fine Amish friend wasn't insinuating that the lack of an educated mind was a prerequisite for military service. They let me in, after all, and I've got quite a bit of edumacashun behind me...
from coldradio :
Are you suggesting there is no honor in serving your country, and you must be uneducated to do so? I don't think that's what you meant. I hope that's not what you meant.

Another location to get a hit counter from is sitemeter.com. Whatever counter you use, you want to look at referrals. Also, Gold Member stats has a "referrals" link for the past 24 hours.

hey there : ) your note was very much appreciated...actually, it made me smile, so thank you. I do think about the writing/depression link quite a bit...I try and comfort myself with thinking that even though it sometimes feels as if i'm going over the edge that at least maybe i'll eventually dive into something creative...who knows....anyway - i've been enjoying your diary, so thank you for dropping by to say hi...
from virginmary :
i tried kazaa, but uninstalled it after 48 minutes because of the scary spyware. that, and i'd downloaded the songs i wanted. but after your g-book message, i thought, "why not winmx?" so now it's installed and i'll see how it goes. seems less privacy-infringing that kazaa, that's for sure.
from vivakate :
dear lord, kiefer and dabney? i'd be first in line. heck, i'd sleep over the night before to ensure that i was first!

from itzie :
YOU sir, have misquoted me. I said you can't have an INTERNET crush on someone you haven't met on the INTERNET. Furthermore, I said that you could have a famous person crush on her. Or star crush or whatever. I had a crush on River Phoenix, Jan Michael Vincent (shut up) and Ben Harper at various points in my life. So obviously, I wouldn't say that you can't have a crush on someone you haven't met.
from lrig :
you? are OUT OF HAND YOUNG SIR!! and holy heck! with the cloak and dagger reference!! my hats off to the lady below me. ... that didnt sound right...
from vivakate :
you're funny. check out dabney coleman in "cloak and dagger" - he's a good guy and plays a dual role. totally puts franklin hart in 9 to 5 behind him. also, don't be so sure about designer strollers...i think they exist.
from reddirtgirl :
That's the best Justine Bateman photo yet! (The giant one, I mean. Too much Justine is never enough.) I had a crush on Mallory's British boyfriend, although Nick never did much for me. By the way, Itzie's theory that you can't have crushes on people you haven't met is so silly, I don't even believe that she believes it.

My netiquette isn't so bad that I don't recognize the glaring faux pas I am committing by double posting (or "noting")like this, but I care not. I feel the need to defend your use of the "thinking hair" moniker, if only to let everyone know that the term isn't known only to you. KGI would be rolling over in his grave (if he were dead) at the idea that what he sported was a soul patch. You'll please pardon my repetetive, cryptic name and situation references, I'm doing what I can to impress on these unwashed masses that "I knew you when..."
from stinckley :
You need help. You've always needed help. You make me laugh, but you really, really need help. I see you eat salad now... I may have to tell Big Mar. No telling what she'll do when she finds that out. I expect that you probably even eat such oddities as spaghetti with sauce on occasion as well, don't you? If only these people knew...
from vivakate :
schooling is involved. you have to work for an auction house and then go to school at one of their affiliated courses. my sister works at an auction house and is thinking of doing the course. i think they are in places like nyc or london though. probably depends on what auction house you work for. she knows a lot of the people on the roadshow...
from amishgirl :
i knew that you had a family ties fetish, but isn't that pic going a bit too far?? does it give you "satisfaction?"
from connie-cobb :
Pfff! Pffffffffff! Quite enjoy your diary - but OG Readmore, huh? Sounds... interesting...
from louveciennes :
"don't drown your food/in catsup or mayo or goo/it's no fun to eat what you can't even see/so don't drown your food!"
from reddirtgirl :
The other diary does still exist, but I guess at this point I'll have to write Andrew and get him to revive it. I guess I could work on that. I swear though that it is, if possible, even dorkier than my current diary.
from reddirtgirl :
And hey, congratulations on getting your day in court! (Can you tell I'm working my way backwards through your entries?) Be sure and tell them that you were just a good old boy, never meanin' no harm.
from reddirtgirl :
Amishboy, did we have the same childhood or what? The second you brought up the ABC Weekend Special, I started racking my brain for the name of the one that was the scariest thing I had ever seen, something about a red room . . . Red Room Riddle! That shit SCARED THE PANTS OFF ME, and I think about it with a shiver to this day.
from lrig :
i meant TOO sweet. dur dur! sorry for the unintentional grammatical error in yr notage!!
from lrig :
yr no dinosaur! yr way to sweet. and by sweet? i mean that you totally kick ass! [realultimatepower.net]
from piilu :
The "It's gettin' hot in here...so take off all your clothes"-entry was :))
from vivakate :
um, now you rock...did it really say bunnicula in your diaryland? wow. thanks for adding me. and for the compliment...
from tearose :
HERE IT GOES! hey, thanks for signing my guestbook. that was great to find. i just wanted to drop a note and say 'hey, your diary has me laughing nearly every single day' because it does! seriously, you have a way with words...and also great taste in music. i AM glad there are Amish in these parts.
from coldradio :
that guy looks like "The Hedgehog" Ron Jeremy
from amishgirl :
brush, brush, brush...brush, brush, brush
from seamonsta :
I'm sorry but that entry had me rolling on the floor! You know, it's getting hot in here. Great picture. I need to work that comment into every conversation I have with people in the near future. However, it's nothing without the accompanying picture. I might just do a hot print out (epson 1280- puleaseeee) wallet size and keep it in my wallet...and when the topic of war or terrorism or weather or gap t shirts come up, I will flash this wallet sized picture of the man and be like- and I quote Amishboy, "is it cold where they live? How could t shirts stretch as so???" I imagine whomever I speak to will respond with a- "dude you totally stole that shit. Amishboy at diaryland? who doesn't know it?!?! Come up with your own funnies!" Seamonsta blushes, head down in shame, as I drag foot away trying not to cry harder with every tomato that hits my butt.
from maaikeb :
Well, normally, I wouldn't really think about it all, but I do now, since she's saying the same things as a friend of mine. The rest doesn't really matter. But your comments made me smile just now, so thank you!
from swtapplpie :
these notes waste a lot of space...somebody tell andrew
from swtapplpie :
C-most def...Original Gangsta....hmmm, mind if i steal that for myself?!? its a goodone...Not B-because 'nothing' may cause the child to develop agonizing thoughts that 'to you' he means 'nothing' therefore submitting his life to crime, drugs and violence, blow up his own high school, only get juvie det. for it and then one day become a US terrorist and kill us all ...we've got enough of those already...... and not A-because perhaps in your explanation of his name actually being "OH God!" he will then believe he IS god. he will become the next anti-christ, brainwash the entire world to follow him, then we'll all end up in nike sneakers drinking his "special kool-aid"....therefore C, would be the best bet...you can't go wrong! all that could happen is him growing up speaking ebonics and wearing jeans past his rear...hey, 'don't hate on us, we're fabulous!'
from stardwarf :
Rikki-Tikki-Tavi was the only one I remembered... but I'm sure it wasn't that version. I know that the time period is right but... Wait. I just figured out what the deal is. Until I was 10 or 11 we only had what channels an antenna picked up. That meant no ABC. I do remember an after-school special about a girl getting a part in her school's production of The Wizard of Oz. There was all sorts of antagonism between her and her sister and her and her parents over her sister. They were paying too much attention to the sister or something. I don�t remember. In the end her sister died and she was sorry for being such a bitch and all. I want to say it was called �Somewhere Over the Rainbow� because after her sister died she sang it for her. (Google didn�t give me anything when I tried to look for it.)
from itzie :
I remember The Trouble With Miss Switch. I don't remember it COMPLETELY, but I do remember that I liked it a lot. The other ones... well, maybe we watched different TV shows. I found myself quoting Captain Chessapeake to myself the other day: "Be someone important! Be yourself."
from seamonsta :
Oh Sweet! I bet now that it's over with, you will secretly miss the drama...
from swtapplpie :
ahhh, 1900 house...those were the days!
from seamonsta :
Afterschool special? No wayyyy we're talking Saturday morning at 11 pm NBC. Hard times. The smurfs weren't aired anymore and I was not into Alf. Zack, Kelly, Screech, Slater, Lisa, and Jessie got me through the weekends!
from stardwarf :
Both "All Summer in a Day" and "There Will Come Soft Rains" are wonderful. I'm so glad that you mentioned the first one because I can never remember what the damn thing is called. Years ago I saw it done on tv. I don't remember it being good though, so it probably wasn't. I've had "Rains" memorized for years now. Despite the obvious horror of the story what always struck me was the peacefulness of the thing. I guess that's what it would really be like though - kill all the damn humans and let their toys run down into silence. That is strangely comforting. I guess that proves I'm a loon.
from lrig :
the 'marian the librarian' song has been stuck in my head for TWO days now. thanks. now all of a sudden, in traffic, i sing 'i love you madlymadlymadamlibrarian! marian!' and people in my car look at me like 'what the FUCK was that?!?!' so yah. thanks. also...i saw this at 'quoted' and thought of you: From Stats01 I got hit on yet again. But this time, it was by an Amish (I think he was Amish!) guy at the library. Seriously. I know it sounds weird, but this Amish guy came up to me and tried to make small talk. After we talked about a book I was looking at and the hot weather, he asked me if I wanted to ride horses. I thought it was a joke. It wasn't.
from reddirtgirl :
One of my favorite books when I was 11 or so was "The Golden Apples of the Sun" by Ray Bradbury, which was one of the few books at my dad's house that was good for reading. I read it about eleventy-hundred times. You should pick it up. I recommend a glass of chocolate milk as an accompaniment.
from swtapplpie :
YEAH! I got tagged by an amish boy...whoo-hoo! TAG...you're it!
from reddirtgirl :
I know, sorry to be such a whiny monster. I don't know what ant crawled into my pants today.
from swtapplpie :
ahhhh *tear*...thanks man *tear, sniff, sniff*
from iqpre-req :
I am ALL ABOUT the amish cleaning services. Bring it on! :o)
from louveciennes :
I don't really consider "meh" a webonic; rather it's something I've gotten from umpteen years of watching "The Simpsons" like, 3 times a day. "Meh" is something Bart and Lisa say when they are bored/neutral/less-than-thrilled about something. Try it and you'll find it's very expressive.
from swtapplpie :
Maaaaaaaaaa--rion......she's the Li-braaaaaaaaaaaa--rian!!
from reddirtgirl :
It was fun watching you eat while you were here--kind of like watching kids at Christmas. They might not like everything they get, but it's all new and exciting.
from seamonsta :
Two whole entries devoted to MJ already...and counting. Hummm perhaps it is not only the media that could not get enough of the Jacko. It seems our Amishlad too has a secret fascination with the Neverlander.
from swtapplpie :
operation?!? i'm so jealous!! watch out for the T-bone, its a doozie...
from wall-of-rain :
We're reading bits of Paradise Lost in this class. I dont really care to much for it :) Im having a hard time with this class in general. I feel like its operating on an entirely different level. What have I gotten myself into??
from lrig :
see? i knew you were 100% rdgs! dangit!! i never move fast enough! if youve already got the mullett, i saw, thinking hair be damned! yr a shoe in!!
from lrig :
im thinking: a close up pic of you with yr 'thinking hair' and the tuxedo-tee. and then submit THAT to hotornot.com! seriously! and if you can photoshop in a mullett? yll be beating them off with a STICK!
from reddirtgirl :
Okay, you know I try to be supportive of your facial hair decisions, so I'll let it go. I forgot to say how impressed I was by your extremely scientific and informative chart. Good work, well researched.
from swtapplpie :
the chart! superb! by george, its MJ, no wait, its petah! (**wendy voice) or is it MJ?....the world may never know!
from bookwench31 :
Thinking hair?! No RDG's right,it's a soul patch. Must say I agree with her "stop it" :) By the way, I LOVE the Micheal Jackson/Peter pan chart. I had never noticed that. I think you have hit the nail on the head. He is Peter Pan!
from reddirtgirl :
Baby, you have a SOUL PATCH?!? Make it stop.
from lrig :
are you still alive? please come back, amishboy.
from kimrose :
Hey, I think I know that Crepes of France place! Is it in that row of venders across from Pike Place? My friends and I get cookies there sometimes if we're at Pike Place and haven't wasted our money at Starbucks or flowers. And I know that Simpsons episode you were talking about too. Craziness.
from seamonsta :
An invite for steaks in Utah right after your prompt return from Seattle? I think Amishboy needs to go on tour and I wanna be the roadie!
from seamonsta :
Wait- what about lesbians??? Amishboys and lesbians??? whoa- now that my friend is a soap opera worth watching. Happy to say monsta's back on the bandwagon. So you better put me back on your favorites!
from lrig :
a plant? i thought men like you were usually called 'a fruit'.
from louveciennes :
Mrs. Peacock was a man?
from lrig :
ah yes. the 'power of the lesbian'. it is a mighty force not to be underestimated. so...does this mean yr stopping in salt lake? ill go see 'steak movies', and take you to rockshows.
from lrig :
dood. im converting to amish-ism. or something. '...tis a gift to be simple, tis a gift to be free. tis a gift to come down where you ought to be, and when we find ourselves in the place just right, twill be in the valley of love and delight.' huh? huh? lookitthat! im ready for amishcountry. [insert cliche cat-meow thing here]
from reddirtgirl :
The Bruce Willis/Miami Vice thing works for you, AB. See you tomorrow! (How weird is that? Also: Will I be able to call you by your real name rather than AmishBoy when we are actually hanging out? Probably not.)
from lrig :
hahahahaha! deathiscoming.com! ahahahahahahah! you be funny. fo' real, yo.
from swtapplpie :
Cottage Cheese Farmer!! ewwwwwww! i get it now, hehehe....i'm a little slow. by the way, the amish kiddo on your profile, uhh he looks like you when you were 12....scary!
from swtapplpie :
Mmmmm, Cheeeessssseeeee! Everybody grab your triscuits, this bad boy's got cheese whiz oozing out his body. i love a good cracker.
from party-on :
No, I don't know Eric Earthman, which is strange because Loyola is such a tiny school. I guess I can survive the partying here because I've been doing it for so long. I grew up in New Orleans - that means that I had my first beer at age three and that my first solid food was bread pudding with rum sauce. I am dead serious.
from party-on :
So I will leave you a note here. I just graduated from Loyola and am attempting to get into Loyola Law! Rockin'. It's nice that you know people here...I'm actually a yat myself. Really.
from itzie :
I just discovered that you have messages on here. And hey, I'm NOT getting into any soap operas here (though, I guess I'm a little late on the uptake for that one). So there. The others can duel to the death or whatever. But, I'll still tour you around town if you actually do come out this way.
from lrig :
a kickass beard without the hairshirt?!?! i envy the lucky seattle lady that wins you!
from fussbudget :
I've had a few of those "check out Seattle" trips and each one makes me more depressed that i don't live there. but if UW lets me into the Ph.D. program, chances are that's where I'll be this fall. Yay for west coast moves!
from reddirtgirl :
If you love Seattle in February, you'll love it forever. (That lrig--such good taste in music.)
from lrig :
rdg just made 'gosh' sound sexy. youd better snap that hot number up while youve got yr chance. to seattle with you! im glad that you liked tmf. you really should buy 69 love songs. its a ridiculously good set. and the washington dc song rules. as does the 'my hearts running round like a chicken with its head cut off' song. good good stuff.
from reddirtgirl :
Gosh amishboy, how manly are you to have grown your beard back already? I'm swooning. Now, stop pussy-footing around all of those foriegn sites and get yourself over to Seattle so that we can begin raising young Enid and Ethel.
from lrig :
a beard? again? saints be praised!
from maaikeb :
Haha, I know a girl who'd love to meet a fellow Dutchmen in NYC... me! I've been in America once, I visited NYC, San Francisco and Orlando with my best friend, and I can't wait to get back. I'm even planning to do a semester at some college. We'll see... And thanks for the compliment about my English! I'm a happy girl now :) Hope you survive(d) the party...
from maaikeb :
Well, you fooled me too. I thought I'd get new insights into the Amish way of life, guess not. (BTW: did you see the documentary 'Devils'Playground?' it's about Amish teens in that 'rumspringa' period.) Anyway, I just read your WHOLE diary, took me a long time, but it was cool (obviously). And it kept me from studying for my final... hmm, that's not a good thing, is it? Anyway, I'm gonna put you as a favourite, ok? Bye.
from seamonsta :
Vittel AND Evian- Amishboy- you are winning my heart over! I'm totally taking RedDirtGirl on. We will fight til our deaths to win AmishLad's heart.
from bs-employee :
I only like guys who let me pick their scabs.
from reddirtgirl :
I'm so glad I passed the Amish quiz. I've actually always had a secret fascination with the Amish. I mean, buttons are nice and everything, but I think I could do without them. My friend Itzie says that you two have had a correspondence going for quite some time now! I had no idea. [cue dramatic jealous soap opera music] You really ought to come to Seattle so that we can all go out for drinks. Or plow a field. Whatever you want to do, honey.
from seamonsta :
So far the most interesting thing for me is the romance unfolding between our amish-hero and lady red. It's become an addictive trashy NBC soap opera for me. This is where you make a constipated-like face- camera focuses on your gotee, and blacks out. Until next time...
from reddirtgirl :
Okay, I feel really confident that we can work something out here. I love old lady names for girls--names like Eleanor or Helen (my grandmother's name). For boys . . . I don't really have many good ideas either, so you could probably talk me into something. I don't like the name Jayden, but it does rhyme with my real life name, which was my grandmother's maiden name. I think it's a good one. And although I have for years planned on naming my first born son Skippy, I'm willing to give up that dream for you, Amishboy.
from lrig :
theyre all over the place. its very quirky pop. they do campy country, superpop, ambientweird...im not good at describing. how bout i just make you a 'best of mf' cd?
from peth :
goatee goatee goatee!
from bs-employee :
I, for one, would love to see your resume. It's the old career advisor in me.
from lrig :
let the hairy amish internettrysting begin!
from bs-employee :
Hey Amishboy, no stubble. That was a no on the stubble.
from bookwench31 :
I found your diary because of rdg. I love it. And who wouldn't be fascinated by facial hair? I have long thought that if it were acceptable for woman there would be enitre industries related to accesories for beards. Ribbons, bows, beads, not to mention the line of facial hair-care products. So good ahead and have that beard.
from stardwarf :
I got here because RDG linked to you. Then, out of curiousity and considering whether or not to put you on my favorites list I saw that you list James as a favorite band. HOLY BRITPOP, BATMAN! The Amish like Tim Booth?!?! You're sooo going on the favorite list.
from lrig :
dood. facial hair rocks. seriously. i am kissing a boy with a beard, and i like it. i like it a lot. if you can pull it off, embrace the beardness. love it. swathe yourself in it. women will swoon. men will envy you. the beard life is a good life.
from symbiotic :
you can get a girlfriend, and then slowly grow out the facial hair. start with a goatee, then talk about a mustache, then plant the idea of a beard, then one day, she'll start thinking of how good you'd look with a beard. then later she'll be telling you that she wants you to grow a beard. i was never a fan of facial hair, but this seemed to work for my boyfriend.
from reddirtgirl :
Yes, that's the very place! Don't worry, he's no great loss to me--he's actually the drunk dial from the other night. Stupid ex-boyfriends. Okay, I'm going to stop stalking you in your notes now.
from cike :
Hi. You've a very interesting diary - great read. Just a quick question; just making sure of something: you do see the irony in an amishboy having a *online* journal don't you? Ok, good, you do. And I bet I'll find the proof of that in the entries somewhere. Thanks for entertaining me. I will be returning. :)
from reddirtgirl :
And I meant to add: I'm into guys w/ beards. Seriously. I mean yes, it's probably some sick Oedipal thing because my own dad has always had a beard, but still. It's not hopeless.
from reddirtgirl :
Okay, that one made me giggle. I hope you and Amishgirl don't raise Republicans. You know, I know a lonely person who just moved to SC, but it's a guy, so um, probably no good. The town he moved to is actually called Rockville, or Rocktown, or Stripmine or something.
from bs-employee :
Beast, unfortunately did not beat man at everything. Although, I think if the beasts knew it was really a competition, they would have. The orangutan easily beat the Sumo wrestler in the tug-of-war. But the human Navy seal beat the chimp in an obstacle course. At the end of it, however, the chimp but his hands on his his hips and prominently displayed his "manhood" to everyone, I believe communicating what he thought of the whole thing. I personally found the sprinter vs. the giraffe to be the higlight of the show. The giraffe had some trouble getting out of the gate and at one point both of it's back legs seemed to flip forward and the poor thing had a look on its face as if something had been plunged up its butt. FOX, of course, replayed this scene in slow motion about 20 times. And how sad is it that I have a master's degree and still have this job?
from bs-employee :
Ahh, yes, Man vs. Beast. Too bad you missed the grand finale--forty "little people" pulling a jumbo jet in a race against an Asian elephant also pulling a jumbo jet. The elephant won. There's something about TV like this. I can't take my eyes off of it--it's kind of like the Strongest Man in the World Competition on ESPN.
from wall-of-rain :
Hi there! Thanks for the note! Wow, your friend got to meet JJ72? Thats so cool. I saw them play at the U2 show in Ireland (I'm a spoiled brat). I see you like James, too. Excellent taste :)
from reddirtgirl :
Thanks, amishboy---born and raised in Alabama and I never knew it meant that. I've actually always thought it was sort of a pretty-sounding name. Too bad about that irony.
from argolam :
I just read a few of your entries and they were great. I'll stop by again to read some more.
from x0lulu0x :
adaption. two thumbs down. why you ask? because it's a big time movie doing something that indie films have been doing for quite some time, but trying to pull it off as new and innovative. which may or may not have made me bitter. (as you can probably see.)
from piilu :
i'll still come read you. you ball of cop-hating-assualt-and-battery-rage. :)) take care!
from floodtide :
Hoo, boy: Did you actually go to CLEMSON? VOLUNTARILY? I'm fascinated, please leave me a note or an e-mail and tell me why. One of my sisters went to Clemson; I know whereof I speak. But here's the reason I'm writing to you - in addition to the Clemson thing and the fact that so far I really like your diary - this really got me: "I've been cursed since birth. I can see a movie once and receit it back. I only need to read books once . . . . I'm not boasting. Or showboating. It's a curse." All of that goes ditto for me, too, and so I KNOW you're not boasting, know that it's a curse. (I've referred to it, in fact, in recent entries of my own.) Anyway: Congrats on your graduation, and I'll be back to read more. Love, Flood.
from amberfalls :
I click clicked here from somewhere else. I like the amish thing you've got going on, even if you're not amish. That's ok, I will forgive you :P I am coveting your snow in New Hampshire. Colorado is still under drought conditions this winter. Fortunately, we have just barely enough snow for me to go skiing this weekend. Happy Merry New Year. -A- P.S. Get a guestbook :)
from londonloves :
amish = indie? hmmm...never thought of it that way :) i like the picture of the little amish boy on your site. its really cute. glad you liked my site. i just changed the look of it last night at 3am. hey anything to avoid studying for finals! can i add that i am rather ecstatic that someone has finally put me on their 'fav' diary list. you're the first! yay~ yeah, graham is a bit cooky but he's my fav. i found out yesterday he's officially left the band. can i say that i am extremely tramatized! *sigh* at least i've still got damon :)
from alookcloser :
I change them from time to time. Only American Beauty is always there. I agree it's hard to pick just five.
from piilu :
...GUESS being the key word ;) Although you're not entirely wrong. But you're not right either. :P:P
from piilu :
thanks for the insight ;) take care
from cementgarden :
I loved the story of the 'Little Prince' Antoine de Saint-Exupery!!! I first read it at generationterrorists.com (a compilation of articles/ quotes etc.). Do you know of an original site by that author?
