"I EMBRACE MY DESIRE TO FEEL THE RHYTHM, TO FEEL CONNECTED, ENOUGH TO SLEEP OUTSIDE, TO WEEP LIKE A WIDOW, TO FEEL INSPIRED, TO FATHOM THE POWER, TO WITNESS THE BEAUTY, TO BATHE IN THE FOUNTAIN, TO SWING ON THE SPIRAL..." -MAYNARD JAMES KEENAN

NOW A STORY (TRUE STORY)FROM ZOE

THE LOT OF US WERE AT BORDERS, WHEN A BRIGHTLY COLORED BOOK CAUGHT DAWNA'S (FORMER BAND MEMBER) EYE. SHE TURNS AND POINTS AND READS THE COVER "ARE YOU MY BOYFRIEND?" COPLETELY DISREGARDING AN OLD WOMAN STANDING IN FRONT OF HER. DAWNA HAD A SLIGHTLY CONFUSED LOOK ON HER FACE, AND SO, WITH THE SINCERITY IN DAWNA'S VOICE, THE OLD LADY THOUGHT SHE WAS TALKING TO HER, AND SLIGHTLY RUDELY SAYS "NO!" AND WALKS AWAY.

"THE MYSTERY OF LOVE IS GREATER THAN THE MYSTERY OF DEATH" -OSCAR WILDE

"THE THINGS ONE FEELS ABSOLUTELY CERTAIN ABOUT ARE NEVER TRUE. THAT IS THE FATALITY OF FAITH AND THE LESSON OF ROMANCE" -OSCAR WILDE

"WHETHER YOU THINK YOU CAN OR YOU CANT, YOUR USUALLY RIGHT" -HENRY FORD

"THIS ENTIRE OPUS IS RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED TO THOSE WHO HAVE LOVED UNCONDITIONALLY ONLY TO HAVE THEIR HEARTS UNANESTHETICALLY RIPPED OUT: BASE NOT YOUR JOY ON THE DEEDS OF OTHERS, FOR WHAT IS GIVEN CAN BE TAKEN AWAY. NO HOPE=NO FEAR" -PETER STEELE

"DONT MISTAKE LACK OF TALENT FOR GENIUS" -TYPE O NEGATIVE

"OUR PRICES ARE SOFA KING LOW" (JUST LOOK AT IT, YOU'LL GET IT) -AD

KEEP IN MIND THAT WE WERE HAVING MANY OF THESE CONVERSATIONS VERY LATE AT NIGHT

(AFTER WATCHING A COMMERCIAL FOR NEW WHITE REESES) KATHERINE: "HAVE YOU SEEN THE NEW INSIDE-OUT ONES?" ZOE: "HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE" DAWNA: "CHEMICALS..."

(WHILE COMMENTING ON A NIN VIDEO) ZOE: "WHATS THAT?" KATHERINE: "UM...ZOE...IT'S A DILDO"

(WHILE WATCHING A MOVIE) ZOE: "HE SHOULD NAKED HIMSELF, THEN HE'D BE ALRIGHT"

TROLL: "IM LIKE AN ONION IN WINTERTIME..."
