I am sure with your knowledge I could manage to get my turntables into the park and then hook up to Its a Small Worlds sound system. What do you think?

We won't, not there, but the Disney music will be part of the surreal experience. And then you can take us out for a night on the town and we'll find something. Or else what J says.

It's funny,

I was walking out of the park last night after midnight and I heard this pounding dance music coming from around the corner. I thought 'cool, the cast members are having a party or something.' Turns out it was just a loud dance dance revolution in an arcade.

I bet someone saw you start dancing until you realized what it was too? Come on now this is the confession thread.

I confess that the very original and terribly good lookin southern beau is at my house this kidless fridaynight; i confess that he just registered under hte moniker southern beau.

I confess I am a bit nervous about this. I know that some of you will suspect he is a sock of mine, but he is not, except that, well you know, when I exert my feminine *willpower* i have so far tended to get what I want from him......I confess I hope that you all shred him to pieces, because as much as I love him, he drives me fucking crazy, because he thinks he knows everything (and he knows a lot).

I confess that I have confessed the nature of all my transgressions *here* to him beforehand.

i confess that i have been feeling like i needed to do some *real* work with my *real* self and therefore withdrew a bit from *this* world, but that in reading today's stuff realize that y'all are just as *real* as my *real* world, and are thinking and *saying* the same shit...

i confess i totally love disneyland and i am really looking forward to bringing my kids this christmas.

i confess i am really intrigued by (and proud of) the discussion re: DVD.

i confess i can't wait to give giggles 'friend' some shit...

oh - and i confess that i felt onplaya tonight... my town was all lit up on holiday bliss.... lights in the trees - college marching band.... santa arrived on an old fire truck and the kids went nuts.. i got off work early and was swimming in it.. and i ran into an acquaintance and chatted and opened and grasped a last minute mutual eye-contact... and turned and walked away...

I confess that I have only started understanding how emotions will forever oscillate, as in the Wheel of Life. That the further I get outside of myself, the more I can see the inner spokes, and realize that in success comes failure, darkness turns into light, and so forth.

I confess that I let the lows get me down and the highs make me giddy, and that will never change. So I will continue to walk the Path to the outer rings on the Wheel, and it will someday feel subjectively slower.

I confess that I let my Ego get the better part of my logic, but that as long as I keep trying to understand and embrace my Ego, and control it rather than it controlling me, that the lessons will get easier, and I will someday become more emotionally bulletproof.

I confess I have a long way to go as yet, and that there is no end anyway.

ouch.

stuart i know i've been at odds with you before, but i've always appreciated your enthusiasm and desire to do the right thing, despite obstacles and annoyances.

it kinda of put a lump in my worldview to see you react to a theme announcement (especially in light of the new reduced enforcement thereof) as the final straw.

though i'm now realizing this may gave been sarcasm. please tell me it was...

hey trey
at odds
well, we have disagreed on things but at odds? Just cuz the 3playa did not click with me doesn't mean I don't think yer swell.

the theme announement bums me out cuz it does not inspire me in any way. I know there are a lot of folks around who are getting a kick out of it but I draw a blank.

Last time we were flloating around in the online sea together I was all jazzed about BM and the projects I was gonna do there. '04 changed that for me. Put me on the fence. Caused me to ask all those pesky questions I know you are quite familair with. Gave me a crisis of venue. I know it seems weak that I would let something as trivial as the theme affect my attendance. Perhaps I am no longer looking for reasons to go but am now looking for reasons to not go.

by at odds, i meant that we'd had our disagreements, particularly over stuff like the theme at the event.

if it helps, i think you've got a good enough head on your shoulders that you'll find something to satisfy your desires, even if it isn't this years theme, or even burning man at all.

good luck.

I confess that i can't bear to delete emails from my former love interest with whom things will never ever work.

i confess that it was like nothing else i've ever experienced.

i confess that ususally i've moved on but sometimes my heart still goes 'flip... plop.'

I confess I have no patience with my mother's telephone calls requesting technical support for downloading one stinking file... she still doesn't get it after 6 months of trying... and you would think she would revert to snail mail to save herself the aggravation.

awww,

it's nice to see you around here again (even if you weren't propping me up). Is your timing pure coincidence or does it have to do with a particular absence?

I confess that my ego is bigger than my actual performance... or, actually, Woodrow's actual performance. I also confess that Fasting, Age, and Alcohol don't help either....

... and I confess that I don't know what he's talking about. I had a great time!!! Wheeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!

Heli, the ladies all dig a man in a kilt, trust me. I wore mine with my Santa suit on Saturday and I managed to get groped several times....

It helps if the ladies are hammered, though...

After five years?.... even a sharp stick would have felt good.... but this? This? This was so fucking fantastic I could go another five years with just the memory.... for me, it was fantastic... of course, the lady may never speak to me again... and that will be a great loss.... but..... oooooohhhh, yeeeeeeeee-owie!!!!!!! And we did do other stuff where the little guy was not involved...

So... every been to Portland? I've got a paint mixer on order...

I confess that after walking around Portland for 12 hours in a Santa suit, I left about midnight and drove back to Seattle so I could catch Lydia in another (matinee) performance of Jesus Christ Superstar. Seeing Lydia up on stage again, and dinner afterwards, made it worth the superhuman effort. I wish I had a video of this show to send to you all... Fantastic!

I confess that the paint mixer was the main component of the "orgasmatron" and that I adore aforementioned paint mixer.

I confess that, regardless of your performance, Sam, I'm sure the lovely lady won't be able to resist your charm. If she has any brains at all, I'm sure she'll speak to you again.

And I confess that I enjoy, very very much, speaking to her. I hope you're right.

I also confess that I enjoyed cuddling the living daylights out of her... and there wasn't enough of that.... that's what I get for letting the little guy do my thinking for me

... Huh?....

Nevermind....

Thanks, GE.

i confess that sometimes this board is a really unfriendly place.
i confess that sometimes i think BM isn't all we make it out to be.

i confess that it what it probably boils down to is this: i just don't belong here, either in this community or this country.
