I have a friend in Connecticut. I'm trying to decide whether or not I should visit him. I think he'd like to see me, he's had a hard time lately. He's a funny one. Moved halfway across the country to live with an internet girl and isn't enjoying it very much right now. I thought a visit from an old friend might cheer him up. But were were involved at one point, and I'm wondering if that would be wierd. I guess it's been almost two years now, but he still might find it a little awkward. I can understand that. Trying to decide what I want to do. I think visiting him would be cool and all, but...I wonder what would happen.

shut it, isolde. i expect better from you! of COURSE you should go see the poor kid! The whole "involved" shiznat doesn't count for anything. where at in ct? saaaaay....dude, like, keep an eye on the local hardcore and metal scene/shows hehe. if you see something for shadows fall, GO! they are great. kinda like folky-punky-metal-stuff. its neato. heh. kinda funny how everyone manages to meet up with people they've known so much. have fun

I was hoping this thread was about Captain Tractor. dissapointed again.

Well, Gee, we can make it be about Captain tractor if you like...

Who's Captain Tractor?

shhh Dougie. shhhh.

i am from connecticut. where does he live?

Redding. I've actually been there, but I didn't think of visiting him until I left, and then I thought "gee, I should have visited x."

ouch. don't we all have 20/20 hindsight?

Um. wow. I just wrote a very long post regarding why you shouldn't go visit him. it boiled down to the fact that he's slimy, manipulative, fucked up, and evil, with a history of using and abusing every female in his reach (well. provided they are over the age of 12.) But I hear conneticut is nice. Is this true? ah, well. I keep meaning to head east. it won't ever happen.

i don't even know where the hell redding is. connecticut is not very nice, but then again, i grew up there so of course i don't think it's nice. new haven is pretty cool, though. parts of connecticut are nice, i guess. what major city is redding near?

It's pretty close to Stamford or Norwalk--both towns are relatively near. Anyhow. He's a good friend and he's done a lot for me, including giving me a lot of respect when I needed it. Sometimes that all I really wanted, and he gave it to me unconditionally. He and I have been in touch off and on since he moved, and he sounds really sad there. I've decided visiting him will cheer him up. Maybe I'll drop by someday. I think it's time for me to do something for hom.

Is it that close to Stamford? I thought it was close to Danbury. Mabye about halfway between. I drove through it a couple of times when I lived in New Fairfield, and used to hang out in Danbury. There's not so much to do in Danbury--there was a coffeehouse, and a couple of semi decent bars, and the Bethel cinema. Best of all was the Texas Taco, but that was actually in New York. It's the world's most surreal taco joint....has to be seen to be believed.

since someone asked, about three days ago, Captain Tractor is not a WHO but a collective of WHO'S. it's a band. a canadian band, which explains why you've never heard of them. but ah, they're rip-roaring fun. they do a cool cover of "The Logdriver's Waltz". I also think it's nice that Isolde thought of me when she was considering visiting her pal. that's sweet.

I'll take your word for it, 'elf, I was kind of delerious when I was there, so I remember Stamford but nothing else, really. Anyhow. Yeah. Thanks for the better guidance.

Personally, I like "Frozen Puck to the Head."

Gee, do you live in CT?

I live in Canada. did you really not know that? I say that you thought of me because you said "gee, I should have visited x." I was making a funny! Jusmicelf is my new buddy.

Now I do now it. Now I understand your funny! HAH HAH! Anyway. Yeah, I should have visited him. He's probably voting Nader right now when I could have convinced him. *sigh* alas.

I's honored to be, Gee. Let's all sing along: We were born to be wild we were born to smell the roses Not to kiss some deadbeat's butt or pick their noses We were born to run free through the hills and through the valleys We were bron under blue skies not concrete alleys We were born to be wild We were born to be free Come with me ... So let's get up off our asses take the blinders off our eyes Grab a chance before it passes to live beyond the lies We were born to fall in love we were born to be lovers Just to live is not enough you've got to love one another Gotta free yo'self!

aren't you the cutest! did you go in for Hoserista?
