honestly, i don't need to know much about ol'voydie - just where in the f*$# does he get those pics he posts? mainly, that nasty nipple pic - i've had two nightmares since i've seen that shit! yuk!

**Mocassin** · 11-20-2003, 05:23 PM

hahaha! Yeah, that looked pretty bad!

I've seen worse at med school though, the teachers seem to think it's a good joke to show us the most disgusting things on the giant screen, maybe so we get used to them!

kerouacscabbie · 11-20-2003, 09:54 PM

univ. of ohio, is that the one in athens, with the big freaky insane asylum, and the crazy halloween party?

kerouacscabbie · 11-20-2003, 10:07 PM

unlike mike, i hate to talk about myself.

but, here goes; can only hope johny law isn't looking in.

name:ian
dob: 9/28/74 29 years old
current residence: asheville, nc
place of birth: new york
occupation: cabbie
education: four year degree in fine art, UNCA
interest: women, scotch, mary jane, seeing and meeting uncorrupted people, driving, cars that jump, literature(just learned how to spell it so i had to use it), scotch, redneck idiots and question why evolution hasn't eliminated them yet.
fav drink: scotch with tom waitts on the side
goal in life: to make every women i meet weak in the knees, but at this point i would settle for just one. and to take my cab around the world
what you need to know to really know me: i hate people and love them at the same time; i find myself drawn to the repulsive side of humanity and find the most beautiful creatures and emotions living in the things i hate the most. and jack was right, "a man who owns a carpet owns to much."

academia is lie worse then chistianity and democracy the myth of a hallucination.

**worldwidemike** · 11-21-2003, 09:50 PM

Joan, you're an Alan Parsons fan, too?! Cool! Eye in the Sky and Pyramid are my two favorites...

Oh, and 'cabbie, I went to Ohio State in Columbus, not Ohio University in Athens of Halloween Party fame. Although I have BEEN to that party, and yes, it does live up to its reputation. What's OSU rep? Hmm...college football? I'll be partying tomorrow when my Buckeyes play the hated U of M Wolverines tomorrow...oops, after midnight, today...!

Go Bucks, kick some Wolverine arse! :greenguy:

Hey Beta, another Ohioan -- cool! And Old Speckled hen is awesome! And 'Little Minx' -- gotta love that name. Reminds me of a Bill Murray line from Ghostbusters: "Nimble little minx, isn't she?"
