The time has come to change the guestbook. I have learned from hilarious experience that changing the format will inevitably switch around and mess up all the signatures it already contains. However, for the first time ever, I intend to actually save the old entries because A) some of Guenh's best stuff is here and B) there is a pitiable lack of individual signers, and if I delete the ones I have, the guestbook will be forced to change its name to the guenhbook.
guenh hales from somewhere in the middle of nowhere central new york in a large white house the could quite possible be the setting for a stephen king book, where guenh devotes a great deal of time to contining to be the center of the known universe (it's tough work and somebody has to do it). guenh's favorite kind of tea is coffee, which is best enjoyed in the morning when i'm grumpy. If Lady Wil were to give guenh a magical box, guenh would want it to contain a magic portal that she can use to visit her distant friends that she is hardly able to see.
guenh has this to say: "i really don't recommentd shaving off your thumbprint with a tablesaw. i didn't it yesterday and it kinda sux. by the way, lady wil rox my world! it's been too long...."

What a surprise to surf the net and find my untitled Halloween poem on your page
of poems. I know the guestbook is suppose to be for people just saying hello,
but I tried the email link you gave for people who might bitch about improper
use of their work, but it bounced back. Anyway, as far as I am concerned
Llewellyn Publishing can scowl if they want to, I am delighted to know that you
liked the verse. In fact I still have rights to its use outside of the book
Halloween, so if the author doesn't mind you using it on your site, nobody else
should care either. On the contrary, you have delighted me this afternoon.
Elliot, Nash, Sandburg, Service, Yeats, Norris. Hmmmmmm, it just sounds a little
strange. But thanks. I do hope you get this.
Best wishes to you,
David O. Norris

that I enjoyed spending time with you this year in all regards :-) I hope you
have a great time next year, and i cannot say enough how much i admire you for
going abroad for a whole year into a strange land like that.
so i am here just looking at your page, and all of the little funny notes and
quirky way of wording things, and i just thought "wow billie is so cool". im
going to miss you.
also, looking that your pictures, I see that:
Katy is hot, (as i have known for two years now)
Zahnnie is hot, (as i have known for two minutes now)
i want to them to meet, so they can fight about who has bigger boobs. that would
be funny. (yeah, it was billie's idea, but I just wanted to put it in a
guestbook where everyone can see and [hopefully] agree)
well i think I've written more than enough in your guestbook by now.

Favorite Phobia and Why: I don't have a favorite phobia, will a favorite plague

Favorite Type of Pajamas: Depends on the context of these pjs... "Perfection" is
relative, at best; anything from stark naked to a full pj outfit may suffice.

i, of course, would like to see the fic page properly updated; but i am

After a long hard day, zenfishsticks loves the chance to slip into a(n) retro
polyester outfit and just relax. (Whether or not zenfishsticks gets the chance
to do this as often as liked is another issue entirely.) In this all too short
period of relaxation, zenfishsticks will often nibble on orange hostess cupcakes
accompanied by a nice cup of Coca-cola.
After this, zenfishsticks will often drift off to sleep and have the most
interesting thoughts. Recently, zenfishsticks noted that, "i was looking up a
stairwell and the man standing at the top dressed in orange drew a gun and shot
me. i was understandably shocked, and spent the rest of the day walking around
trying to find my friends so i could tell them that i was dead. i carried around
a small white mouse, a large silver rat and a dead yellow fish. most of my
friends were out playing a complex sinking puzzle game, and could not find the
23rd spot. i helped erin find it (it was made of red gelatin, and swallowed our
silver spoon as soon as we touched it), but i couldn't find the courage to tell
her i was dead. instead i took the silver bullet out of my chest and handed it
to her. she started crying and i ran away. my wings were beginning to grow, but
i wasn't done with my goodbyes. i threw the dead fish into a sparkling pond, it
began to swim around. i found gautham and mike, but they didn't believe that i
was dead. i went to dave's room, but he was on the phone, so i put the white
mouse in a box in his room, and left. my wings were almost completely grown. i
couldn't figure out why i still had my body. the clouds opened, so i let the
silver rat run free, and ascended quickly. the light was overwhelmingly bright,
and then i woke up."

After a long hard day, Zahnnie loves the chance to slip into a(n) soft,
comfortable, forest green outfit and just relax. (Whether or not Zahnnie gets
the chance to do this as often as liked is another issue entirely.) In this all
too short period of relaxation, Zahnnie will often nibble on baklava accompanied
by a nice cup of Dr Pepper.
After this, Zahnnie will often drift off to sleep and have the most interesting
thoughts. Recently, Zahnnie noted that, "I dreamt I was a messiah. My crowd
gathered before me as I stood on the beach; they were in bleachers and I stood
knee-deep in water before them. More and more gathered and I had to back up, the
water pushing my robe above my thighs. Although I was aware of the swelling
waves I could not feel them or the texture of my wet clothes.
Followers of a rival messiah showed up and asked my permission to speak of their
?Atma?. I generously nodded, and they began to throw food at the crowd;
specifically, chicken and curried rice. They started cheering for Atma, and I
took a small girl-child and left. Quick transition to a canyon-area; although I
only looked at my young companion I knew we were in a southwest style canyon. I
began questioning her on the rightness of the situation, and she promptly
replied that Atma was wrong. And as a good messiah, I began to explain to her
that Atma was just different, not necessarily wrong, and people who went over to
her weren't tricked. Although I remember formulating my argument with extreme
eloquence and simplicity, the child didn't quite grasp the concept, but was
struggling admirably to understand.
?Atma? is the Sanskrit word for ?soul? or ?true self?. I don?t know if my
unconscious knows Sanskrit, but the cultural reference somehow made it into my
mind."

fantasy/RPG setting that was eerily like my hometown, except with more
malicious-looking trees and Beowulf-style lakes. I was by the shore of one of
said lakes, and I was talking to a fanatical member of a cult-like sect with of
which I was also a member. It (the zealot was of indeterminate gender) insisted
that true knowledge of The Way could not be known to human beings, while I
pointed out that Our Founder had discovered the way and traveled it, and he was
only human. I proceeded to educate It about The Way, which somehow went by or
into said lake and involved a fair amount of said trees. I hope the girl I was
babysitting didn't die or get eaten or something..."

guenh the lonely takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
i was all alone on my birthday, sitting around my house, occasionally prattling
on with a family member; or in the case of my brother, attempted to prattle on
as he tried to look all teenagerly and stoic. i realized that its my birthday
and i will see none of my friends this day and then... *insert dramatic drumroll*
out of the darkness a ray of light, a hope, a ring from minnesota if you would.
and on the other side of this ring, this ray of light, what else but that long
lost voice of a friend to whom i have not said a word to in months, a friend
who remembered that on this day a certain person turns twenty. and we talked,
the small talk of people who have not spoken in a while, but we talked
nonetheless. and she wished me a happy birthday. and my loneliness fled before
her powerful voice and this lonely birthday girl smiled and was in the company
of friends; albeit over long distances. and she gave one of the best presents
anyone could receive, friendship. and it was good. and so ended the 16th day.
but seriously, thank you for you call, it meant a lot. you're a wonderful person and i cannot wait until we meet again! may peace be with you in this holiday season.

relaxation, Ariadne will often nibble on Sherbert accompanied by a nice cup of
Chambord.
After this, Ariadne will often drift off to sleep and have the most interesting
thoughts. Recently, Ariadne noted that, "Well, as i cut open my scalp on the
edge of a step in a wrestling snow match last night i decided that the physical
world could just be a representation for the progression of the spiritual soul-
remember now- not just one soul but many all interacting (but definitely hints
of a self manifested destiny). As reality splits into multiple universes
infinitesimally every nanosecond and as our understanding of space occupies less
than 4% of actual space. The choices the soul makes affect the outcome of each
reality and progression of 'time'.
Drew, the guy i was wrestling with, could very well have landed under me and
broken his neck at a point that would have killed him, instead i landed under
both our weight on my left side, my foolish lunge, my blunt force head injury, i
wouldn't have it any other way. "

After this, Katy will often drift off to sleep and have the most interesting
thoughts. Recently, Katy noted that, "I didn't originally think it was a dream,
but I woke up, and was mad at myself for going to sleep with my watch on. I saw
that my watch had actually made a big long dark mark on my wrist that seemed to
hurt quite a bit, and was perhaps bleeding because I (suprise) hurt myself while
sleeping. I couldn't get a very good look at it because it was so dark in the
cave I sleep in, so I took of my watch, hurting my wrist wound further in the
process, and went back to sleep. When I woke up again and saw that it was
lighter, I looked at my wrist again to see how damaged it was. There wasn't a
mark. Q: Why can I get hurt in my dreams so realistically that I don't know
they're dreams? A: Because I'm Katy"

After a long hard day, guenh loves the chance to slip into a(n) work clothes,
after all her life seems to revolve around the scene shop as of late and pretty
much everything she owns has paint, holes or wood glue on it somewhere outfit
and just relax. (Whether or not guenh gets the chance to do this as often as
liked is another issue entirely.) In this all too short period of relaxation,
guenh will often nibble on mints of any variety, be they hard mints or ice cream
or candy canes or life savers or creme de menth or anything minty really
accompanied by a nice cup of hot apple cider, because it seems to be appropriate
to the season.
After this, guenh will often drift off to sleep and have the most interesting
thoughts. Recently, guenh noted that, "one of my nicknames in colleges is 'the
seven year old boy', which if you know me is an apt description. many people
think i'm a crazy when they first hear one of my friends call me that, but then
they realize, i am. its just because one of my philosophies in life is that we
need to aply more attention to the little joys in life and then the big ones
stresses will become more bearable; that and i love cartoons. i think that we as
humans put too much stress into our lives, by complaining too much and paying
attention exclusively to the large events, instead of taking joy in the sound of
a crushed fallen leaf, the graceful sweep of messy handwriting, or the joy of
even mediocre apple pie al la mode; children have an amazing capacity to take
joy whereever they can. so my challenge to everyone is to go out and look at
what little things give you them and to take as much joy out of just one little
experience as they can. if everyone did that, i think we would be a much happier
species, even if it would make all of us a little childish; but then where is
the harm in that?"

anyway, i hope that minnisota is treating you well. did i tell you that my
roommate next semester is from minnisota? she's determined to get my over there
during january so she can see me freeze my buns off. she tried to convince me
today that licking a pole in minnisota during the winter was a good idea, but
i'm a little too smart to fall for that.

of light, fertility, and good luck. For all the light and good luck that was
supposed to be floating around the place, there were an awful lot of
not-cued-up tapes, bad spotlighting, frustrating requests, and -in general- way
too many stupid people.
As for fertility, well... in payment for the havoc this event wreaked upon my
life, I'm taking a couple sari-draped Indian beauties to bed tonight.
I'd like to say that I learned some deep and profound lesson from my experiences
tonight; but the truth is, the one thing that stands out in my mind is this -
when dealing with a police officer who is making absurd demands while standing
inside your tech booth, first ask if any laws or building codes are being
broken... if he hesitates before trying to say "yes" - anything goes. "

Steve takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
We started Master Class build! Okay, I admit Rhett started on the mirror boxes
already when I wasn't there, but I was the only one there for a while today and
got all the plexi measured and drawn off so when Jared came we just cut it all
up. Then the TD had to leave for this airport thing that was going on with Jouet.
If nothing else, I hope it gets us a better house on Thursday (though not
likely)--it's not fair, Squirrel always has good Thursday houses instead of us.
Anyway, we started the build and we're starting .com at some point and we're
going to refloor the catwalk (although I won't be involved in that because I'm
going to Dallas (!) then, but I did cut up and put together a bunch of the
sections of the new floor). But if they extend Jouet as they want to and none of
us want them to, the cat won't be refloored until probably the end of the season
which really stinks because that's when we'll have to start building the first
show of the next season (which I want to say is Hair, but I don't know for sure)
so we still won't have time to do it. It's kind of a safety issue. Anyway only
one of the crew members would be able to do the extention, and two of the band
members have gigs already for the Saturday night, so what's the point of
extending when you'd need an entirely new crew? It took Craig and me three or
four days during tech to get pulling the swing right. Oh, well, but I'm in the
program for Jouet three times. Andrew's only in there twice. (He was in the
Streetcar program three times though I wasn't in it at all.)
I guess I shouldn't waste anymore of my valuable soapbox time talking about theater stuff and should instead compliment her ladyship on her webpage although I share the conviction that more Thing should be published and that the Lair should have some kind of change.

guenh , otherwise known as "call me anything you want to, but don't call me late for dinner *badum-ching*," can often be found dancing merrily through the daisy fields without a care in the world... with a semi-automatic and is known to drink 99 bottles of beer on the wall, 99 bottles of beer. take one down, pass it around, 98 bottles of beer on the wall. 98 bottles of beer on the wall, 98 bottles of beer. take on down, pass it around, 97 bottles of beer on the wall. 97 bottles of beer on the wall, 97 bottles of beer. take on down, pass it around, 96 bottles of beer on the wall. 96 bottles of beer on the wall, 96 bottles of beer. take on down, pass it around, 95 bottles of beer on the wall. 95 bottles of beer on the wall, 95 bottles of beer. take on down, pass it around, 94 bottles of beer on the wall?*a lot of time passes* ? bottles of beer on the wall, 2 bottles of beer. take on down, pass it around, one bottle of beer on the wall. one bottle of beer on the wall, one bottle of beer. take one down, pass it around?oh wait, i just remembered, i don’t really like beer that much. on occasion . In those spare moments not dedicated to screwing studs and practicing safe sets quite possibly in connecticut, guenh enjoys reading steve martin's new play "picasso at the apollo [somethingorother]" but the damn bookstore in town doesn't have it-jerks! and munching on i like to eat, eat, eat apples and bannanas. oh wait, i don't really like bananas and am only partially fond of apples, unless you pick them yourself at the apple orchard *drool* watermelon is okay .

Amata , otherwise known as "crazy Wiccan," can often be found behind, under, around or above a daze and is known to drink a proper cup of tea, with milk and honey on occasion . In those spare moments not dedicated to running amuck, working tech, wasting time, celebrating with pagan friends, estranging or alienating myself from the rest of the S-and-M U community, telling obscure jokes to condescending crowds, writing poetry, bitching, moaning, complaining, eating chocolate substances, playing with flying ointment, procrastinating, Amata enjoys reading To Ride a Silver Broomstick (by Silver RavenWolf) or perhaps The Spiral Dance (by Starhawk) and munching on although some say it's the peach- the truth is (that night) I enjoy pears.

Amata takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
I stand on my soapbox and scream... then laugh.
I haven't been doing much these days, actually, that is worthy of much comment
in a place as auspicious as this; Lady Wil always receives my compliments for
her work in the domain known as "the Net."
I want more Thing, and more Fic, and someone to play the drinking game with.
I believe I have about $40 worth of spare change accumulated underneath my bed,
and I've not seen my roommate in five days. (No joke)
I know Guenh will have a witty, charming, intelligent, and perfect comment, so
perhaps I should just burn this box and let myself down already...
Then again - where's the fish?

guenh is a rather poetic individual who lives in a place none other then i may reach. After a busy day of dancing at a crossroads under the starlit sky, guenh enjoys drinking in the warmth of another (particularly during a pleasant conversation).
If you should approach guenh with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "laughter amongst friends."
(For more info, go to the deepest recesses of your heart, embrace what you find
there)
guenh takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"i want to be poetic and dance under the starlight.
i want to be free and live through moments tender and tough.
i want to be childish and laugh at the idiosyncrasies of the
world.
i want to be deep and see and live beyond the ordinary.
but most of all i want to be a friend,
so that i may dance in the hearts of others,
live in smiles, both mine and my friend's,
laugh at things only we might understand,
and see and live on fondly in the hearts of others.
an impromptu poem for a good friend. its two in the
morning, time for bed. remember that i always love yah hon.."

guenh is a rather prophetic individual who lives rather close to a loud fan that is making my dorm much colder then it actually needs to be. After a busy day of striking down evil doers in their path with her mighty stick of justice, guenh enjoys drinking berry juice, green tea or ice water from an extremely cheep, purple beverage holder that she bought at super-walmart (the coolest place around and sadly enough that isn't a lie).
If you should approach guenh with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "divine retribution and a good piece of bread."
(For more info, go to a galaxy far, far away. i'm sure that the advanced
technologies of whatever species you might find there would be more then enough
to amply answer any of your questions)
guenh takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"divine retribution is at hand! those non-signers who did not answer the call of the merciful lady wil and enter their name in her holy book will suffer fire and brimstone. the good lady wil does not tolerate those who do not answer her call; the call to but put forth their testimonies onto her webpage of light and join the ranks of her signers, those who have escaped the punishment of the masses of non-signers who will be pushed into the abyss of badness.
i expected to come here and find many a juicy entry to read and what do i find? WHAT DO I FIND NON-SIGNERS? but that no one dared to answer the call of lady wil since last i visited her book. as her prophet, i am angered. will none of you step forward from the dark world of the non-signers and place their mark in the holy book? would you ignore her call for all eternity and live as a shell of a human, as a NON-SIGNER for as long as this universe shall live?
repent and SIGN, ye non-signers!REPENT AND SIGN! and ye shall be saved. the lady's prophet has spoken... amen.."

Oscar Wilde is a rather foppish individual who lives in a world of wit. After a busy day of spending time with Bosie, Oscar Wilde enjoys drinking Earl Grey tea, accompanied by raspberry scones.
If you should approach Oscar Wilde with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "I seek a fine afternoon tea with Lady Wil and some of
her dear companions. They are all such lovely girls and I enjoy their humorous
conversations.."
(For more info, go to one of my fine works. Allow me to suggest Dorian Grey
or The Importance of being Ernest.)
Oscar Wilde takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"Lady Wil, I must say that I am quite enamoured with this
fine web page you have put together. It is quite
astonishing to me; in my day, people did not just
make their own homepages. However, I must add that
the people of my century did a great many things that your
age leaves to machines. In any case, I am quite impressed
and wanted you to know that I enjoy your page.."

guenh the lost 'boy' is a rather un-adjective-knowing (who needs school anyway!?!) individual who lives in the forests of never never land; second star on the right and straight on 'til morning. After a busy day of fighting pirates and following the leader, guenh the lost 'boy' enjoys drinking anything with enough sugar to make me shake.
If you should approach guenh the lost 'boy' with the question "What do you

guenh is a rather gloriously divine (and since i am gloriously divine, i can do whatever i want, so nah!) individual who lives in the memories, stories and guestbooks of others. After a busy day of mindlessly type in witty replies to random questions asked by one Lady Wil., guenh enjoys drinking chai tea, in a coffee shop with good friends, witty banter and a rousing (no pun intended) game of sexual innuendo scrabble or full contact phase ten..
If you should approach guenh with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "sanity in an insane world... no wait, on second
thought, why would anyone want that!?! sanity is over rated. i want to dance
through the daisy fields.."
(For more info, go to your wallet and pull out anything that has the face of a
dead president on it. stuff it all in an envelope and donate this money to a
charity of my choice. obviously i'm choosing the 'guenh really needs some cash
fund' since it has been generating little to no revenue lately and really is a
good charity filled with hope and brightness for the children... or at least you
will be funding guenh on a trip to super wal-mart, the coolest place in town!)
guenh takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"okay, so i realize that i have taken a short hiatus from signing your guestbook; i have an excuse, really, just give me a minute... okay wait, no i don't. i lied. anyway, i've noticed that i've been secluded to a separate page of this guestbook. what's with that lady wil? am i too good to mix in with the others. i mean i don't bite, i have all my shots, i'm house trained... no wait maybe not. i play well with others anyway and i clean up real good. but i think i can forgive you and to show my forgiveness, i'm going to compose you a love sonnet! i hope you enjoy it and you feel forgiven. i loves yah!."

guenh is a rather prolific individual who lives in another place besides this. she would live here, but the fact that its a web site and not a physical place clashes with her shirt. . After a busy day of doing a little dance, making a little love, getting down tonight, followed by a light nap and a rousing game of full contact oragami, guenh enjoys drinking her beverage of the week, which just so happens to be arbor mist's berry-kiwi wine.
If you should approach guenh with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "the holy grail, earthly symbol of god's divine grace.
the fact that i'm a step up from an atheist will probably complicate my search,
but i'll keep you posted if i find anything. i might as well start my search in
shanklin theater, after all, that's where i found my jacket last time and who
knows maybe i'll run into my web page (see below).."
(For more info, go to i probably lost it in shanklin theater. i lost my jacket
for about two weeks once, only to find it draped neatly over one of the modesty
rails in shanklin theater. thats what the world needs more of, modesty rails.
did i mention, i fixed my printer.)
guenh takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"its funny, lady wil, this person named guenh keeps signing your book. who is she? why does she keep mindlessly typing strange things into your guestbook? where is the cheese dip? where's myra? whay do i keep quoting rumors even after we have closed the show? but i digress, a mind such as this should be cultivated writing stuffy papers for even stuffier professors, not wasted with witty banter and good friends. she should have to write at least six stuffy papers a week, per professor. her world culture's professor has already realized this, which she is mightily bitter about by the way, and has assigned her a premium number of papers due this week, plus an exam.
now i would like to completely digress and rant about welding, since this is my obvious outlet for welding frustrations. as you all know, or at least are about to know, i am learning welding for one of my classes. i enjoy the fact that i am learning welding and i rather enjoy welding itself. MIG welding (also known as wire-feed welding) i have been fairly successful with, despite a few burn-throughs, which just means that i need to go faster, but arc welding... i can arc weld! i assure you that i can, but last week we ran out of electrodes (an integral part to arc welding) and bought some more, that were supposed to better and to stick less. well, nothing could be further from the truth. try to strike an arc with those things. just try! okay, i realize that time and space somehow get between you and you trying, but the point is, its very hard to strike an arc when the electrode sticks every mili- second. but don't worry, don't let this obstacle fret you, because i got it, i have become really good at striking arcs, funky electrodes be damned! now i need to work on my welding arc! (which is not the same as the one you strike)
okay, that's the end of my entry for today. lady will, i want you to know that i write more in your guestbook then i do in my journal. do you feel special? you should. anyway, i have to go to bed, i have a big day tomorrow. wish me luck! ... or don't. see if i care.."

"Little did I realize that when I opened my Web Site (did I

After a busy day of i think that's obvious by now, but if you haven't figured it out... i'll tell you. the quote is from miracle max a la 'princess bride', guenh enjoys drinking i'm rather fond of screwdrivers... i mean orange juice..
If you should approach guenh with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, ""a nice BMT (bacon mutton and tomato)
sandwich.
where the mutton is nice and lean..." (if you are thinking: 'wait, guenh can't
mean that, she's a vegetarian', then obviously you have been paying attention.
welcome to the lightning round of 'name that quote')."
(For more info, go to i would say 'up your butt and around the corner', but that
would be... how should i say... uncouth. oh wait... i just said it! oh well!)
guenh takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"i know i already signed this today, but i decided that i wanted to again and as far as i know we live in a free country and this is a free guestbook and i could be doing homework right now, but why when i could babble on and on and on and around and about in lady wil's guestbook and indulge my newest for of procrastination at the same time. although i must say that the attempt at procrastination isn't as valiant as the time i started reading Moby Dick in order to avoid reading Martin Luther's On Christian Liberty which we all know is about twenty rather smallish pages long; or perhaps we all don't know that, which is a shame, since its a rather dull piece and deserved to be put off in the first place. or maybe i'm just being overly sensitive on this whole avoidance of Luther's On Christian Liberty because i'm a unitarian universalist and wish someone would write about UU liberty for a change. not that christian liberty is at all a bad thing, although the pamphlet by the same name, as previously stated, was rather dull, even if it was well informed; that in no way made up for the dry writing style. i must say that martin luther does get points added to replace some of those taken away by previously stated dullness of his pamphlet, merely because if it wasn't for his dull writings, unitarian universalism wouldn't have been born from the reformation in the first place and than my argument would be null in void; except for the fact that his writing would still be dull, since dullness is eternal (try sitting through numerous rehearsals of meet me in st louis or some other equally unstimulating production and you will know what i mean).
now, i would like to inform you all that it has started snowing in evansville. just when i was enjoying the beautiful cool, sunny days we were having, this happens. anyway, this sudden change of topic signals the end of this conversation. its now time for all good guenhs to go to bed and, just by coincidence, its also about time for me to go to bed, since tomorrow is going to be another long day, but thats another story.."

After a busy day of raiding trade ships, looting and pillaging, having daring swordfights, traversing the open seas, saying 'arg' a lot, you know, basic pirate stuff, bonnie black and blue enjoys drinking brandy, wine, sea water.
If you should approach bonnie black and blue with the question "What do you

Steve Collins is a rather technical theater addicted individual who lives in Texas. (I hate to be more specific than that at present.). After a busy day of working in theater, reading, sewing, running a show, playing a piano, &c., &c., &c., Steve Collins enjoys drinking tea or spatzi or lemonade or who knows what.
If you should approach Steve Collins with the question "What do you seek?"
your response would likely be, "Day crew work. We're in hibernation, and I don't
like that much, oh, and good grades in my classes.."
(For more info, go to http://www.ece.utexas.edu/~fieler)
Steve Collins takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"First a brief note to Guenhvyer: For shame, you must never
go against her Ladyship's attempts at restoring perfect
grammar to our imperfect language. One must always strive
to keep one's grammar impeccable so that one's innate
intelligence may shine through, unclouded by the doubts
suggested by an inability to use one's native language in
its proper form.
I must admit I envy others their witty entries when I find
myself only able to contribute chiding remarks on the
subject of grammar. I don't suppose I really have much to
say. I look forward to the promised change in the page
with interest. If my page were half as interesting, I
would consider myself lucky. The quotes as always are
interesting though I no longer know the context of them or
the people who said them. Herself has managed to pull
appropriate lines to make one smile uninformed of the
circumstances. I rejoice to see the thing grow longer and
look forward such time as it is completed and also such
time as the description of the Den is completed. I await
that most anxiously as I feel it will be of use. Although
I must say that it's dark out, and the weather isn't so
hot, and I'm finding that the bow of my pirate ship is
rather unpleasant and am wishing to return to the cup of
tea, but if herself says this is best viewed from a pirate
ship, I suppose that's where I'll have to do it from.
Could anyone have less than implicit trust in her Ladyship?
Enough on the subject of the recent changes to this cave.
As long as I get to be on my soapbox, I feel that I have my
right to express my opinion on a few things. The ending
to 'Oliver Twist' is lousy. Everything is too pat and too
interconnected. The book that the Ahrens and Flaherty
musical 'Ragtime' (entitled 'Ragtime' quite coincidentally)
provides some more explanation, but at the same time is
rather wideflung in the material it covers, mentioning many
things that I can only suppose are there just to give a
deeper sense of the era. The same plot runs through it but
is not in anyway so prominent. 'A Funny Thing Happened on
the Way to the Forum' is hilarious. Score another point
for Sondheim. The music for 'Into the Woods' is hard;
score two more points for Sondheim. (Or maybe we should
take away two. That will have to go to the committee for
point distribution for consideration and then turned over
to Sandra so she can calculate the value in Sandra points
which may then be turned back to the committee for point
distribution who will probably agree that it is a good
thing to give my poor hands a hard time coordinating with
my eyes and brain and award him five points.) 'A Streetcar
Named Desire' should be set in one period, preferably the
one Tennessee Williams put it in. He probably knew what he
was doing. It also should not be done on a red set. I
think brown would be far more appropriate, but what do I
know, I'm not the set designer. But I have learned that
one can get used even to an ugly set if one spends enough
time with it. And with it does not mean staring at it for
hours--that merely increases the hatred; you have to just
be in and out of it until you can accept that the set
designer has different ideas. Something I've learned:
it's fun to see reviews of a show you've been working on
printed in the newspaper, even if they complain that Marlon
Brando isn't playing Stanley.
I realize I have not been witty, but a soapbox is not meant
for one to be witty, it is meant for one to make one's
opinions known. I hope my opinions have been of some help
to explaining the mysteries of what goes on in my brain.
If they give you any clues, please let me know so that I
might start assembling the puzzle pieces and figure just
what I think I'm doing.."

Amata is a rather lesbian... (i just like the way this sentence runs when i write that) individual who lives in a dream. After a busy day of splitting infinitives to really have fun, Amata enjoys drinking blood.
If you should approach Amata with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "Currently, I'm searching for a clue... And a college
degree in religious studies would be nice. Actually, I'm quite bored with my
classes, and intend to take a couple more hours next semester; to make up for
it, I've been spending lots of time with the pagans- searching for a soul, you
know.."

Amata takes a moment to stand on Lady Wil's soapbox and says:
"Okay, I know I just wrote- but honestly, it's just no fair.
Here I am at Wil's *faboulouso* webpage; I innocently sign
the book and *BAM* there is my pathetic little response,
compared to the epic adventure just beneath it written by
none other than Guenh herself. I read through her inspired
scribbles and realized that my own are totally inadequate.
Don't get me wrong- I admire, respect, and could never
begrudge my friend's un-duplicable ingenuity.... But, I would
like to just sit down and cry; why in the world does she
manage to accurately express *exactly* what I would like to
say? It's being smacked in the face with a wet sock: even
though I get a nice, warm glow in my heart- I'm still
dripping wet and stinky in an weird and unusual way.
I don't know if that metaphor was really appropriate. ."

guenh is a rather spontaneous. no wait.... how about sleep deprived or theatrical technician (if you want to sound impressive). how about fun loving, carefree, dreamy, patient, playful, crazy, funny, ostensible, sexy, tasteful, schnazzy, motley, busy, silly, proud, loud, in charge, far away, far out, out going, shy or individual. oh wait, did you say ONE adjective? how about indescribable? individual who lives room 324. After a busy day of spare time? i have spare time!?! i was wondering where that was!, guenh enjoys drinking ummm....... *cough* red hooch *cough* at least it's one of my faves..
If you should approach guenh with the question "What do you seek?" your
response would likely be, "everything. i want everything. forget the semantics
of 'where would i put it' or 'what will i do once i have it' i just want it. at
least give me life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, i might forget the
rest. *someone off stage whispers and guenh smiles nervously* um... then forget
the 'everything' part. i'm going to go pursue my happiness.."

Important Comments: "i don't really have anything to say right now. i mean i usually write these things on the fly and all, but i'm drawing a particularly large blank. i'm really just signing your 'book of memories' at this particular moment, in order to occupy myself, while i wait for songs to download to finish my CD. its also a valiant effort to stop me from downloading any other songs. the more i download, the less time i have to burn and i have class in about 40 min, so i doubt i'm going to make it. i may just have to listen to it next time and in doing so postpone my listening to my ' perfectly assembled 'rendering' CD. it really is a shame. i gotta go, see if i can pull this together in the remaining time. ja ne."

Do I Believe in Faeries?
What I Seek:
the scene: shanklin theater. evansville, indiana.
the time: probably around four in the afternoon.
the players: all people you don't know and me.
additional info: our theater is a thrust stage, which means that the stage itself sticks out into the audience. to divide the playing area from the audience are modesty rails.
me and two other people (the technical director and the assistant technical director for my upcoming production) were sitting in the audience, looking onstage and discussing what needs to be done next. four guys are leaning on the modesty rails, waiting for instructions, inda swaying back and forth.
mr. flauto: (walks in and stands center stage for a few moments, then, in perfect flauto style) you know, its not every day, when you walk into shanklin and find the TD, the ATD and the master carpenter sitting in the audience watching four guys fuck the modesty rail.
i dies. it would have been alot funnier if you a) were their, but what isn't? b) knew mr. flauto and what a 'mr. flauto' thing that was for him to say.
well, just thought you might want to know. for now, this is adela signing off. join us next time. same bat time, same bat channel.
ITS BED TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

(hey, if you ever have some time to drop by and see one of my shows, i can put you up for the night!) so, in short, i really must dash and i will continue this train of thought in my next entry."
