In 1999, the art of quilting, She-Ra: Princess of Power, and advanced concepts in panty marketing. In 2000, this query was posted, why not revive it? Really Deep Think Tank: Quick, write down the first thing that comes to mind... What is one thing that *always* cheers you up? It doesn't have to be the only thing, but what is the first thing that pops into your mind when you try to think of something you like that always makes your day or makes you feel better or comforted? In 2001, gynecologists, men and feminine hygiene products, birth control, the entire womanly package. [ =======================> In RDT History <======================= ] On September 2nd in 1992, listmembers discussed using Tori's music for emotional healing, and an article from "Mix" magazine's "Live Sound: Soundcheck" column was posted, mentioning that Tori's tour only has three people traveling with it. In 1994, list members order and receive the Intergalactic Garage "YKTR" CD complete with b-sides, transcription from a radio interview in Atlanta (a story about the "grunger" who inspired "Cloud on my Tongue," chicken in Trent Reznor's kitchen, songwriting and other stuff), more Tori and Kate. In 1996, Tori and the Force? In 1997, with the list having been down for almost a month, Violet sets up the temporary list, "Thoughts Right Now." [Crap, I missed my own anniversary! -- V.] In 1998, Statistics of songs played during the first 75 shows of the Plugged '98 tour, more six degrees of Tori In 1999, consciousness and lucid dreaming, hate crimes. [ =======================> In RDT History <======================= ] On September 3rd in 1992, Tori as shrink. Also, tour reviews, including this quote: On the positive side, some special moments: the B-sides ("Upside Down" in the first show, "Here, In My Head" in the second...especially nice since I must confess to getting just the _tiniest_ bit burned out on _LE_)" (i bet no one here knows how *that* feels! ;>) In 1994, lots of concert reviews and discussion about Bill Miller, one of the tour openers. In 1997, "My So-Called Life," and an article references Tori's astrological chart. In 1998, 80's toys and the perpetual off-topic post discussion. In 2000, parental advisory labels, happy-making chocolate, and neighborhood bars. In 2001, Australian media Wiccans, menstruation, problems that occur when one is pro-organized religions, Chandra Levy and Gary Condit, male and female gynecologists. [ =======================> In RDT History <======================= ] On September 4th in 1994, listmembers were discussing Intergalactic Garage "YKTR" stuff. In 1997, a (sort of) update on Chris, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and his relationship with the fairies, and "Top Ten Places Chris Meyers Might Possibly Be." In 1998, a member posts results to a meet and greet survey, people discuss negativity on the list. In 1999, there is information about the town of Juarez, issues with the Alanis and Tori togetherness tour and new album anticipation. In 2001, we are graced with the Princess Leia digest @(-_-)@: more menstruation, interestingly flavored foods, religion and home-made menstruation products.

But before you get to my thoughts is a piece of fiction about the day itself. I think it's poignant that on September 12 there will be a special ceremony in Arlington Cemetery for all the unidentified, unclaimed victims of the attacks on New York/DC. My story has to do with one such person, although I wrote in the weeks following the attack. Read my story, but please, read my thoughts also. I feel so very strongly about what is happening in the world and I think we all can do part to help.

(and if you don't believe me when I say she's beautiful, go to my blog. I posted pics and little Mac wasn't even 4 hours old yet!) I'm an aunt now, and I've earned my damn bragging rights, so deal with it, BWAHAHAHAAAAHAHAHAHAH!!! now ON WITH THE REPLIES!! Arija: hope you're enjoying your apartment! :) that reminds me.. Arija and Deadra, I've got your CDs burned and ready to go.. I just need to scare up a couple of jewel cases and then get 'em sent.. email me if you're okay with them being like.. put in a big envelope thing for a CD instead.. I WILL include cover art (that I made myself! ;)) with it, whatever the case! just let me know what you prefer, and then they will be off! Beth updated us on Gabriela.. TELL HER HELLO FOR US!!! :) thanks yet again, Woj, for the Tori news! :D Megan said: "Um....I didn't mean to post my phone number. Whoops. I thought I had only clicked on my Murrysville Moronville buddies. So any stalkers out there, don't call me and threaten to devour my soul. Thank you." er, I don't even remember it! o_O I emailed ya tho! :) Penny gave us the Scarlet's Walk tracklisting.. sounds sweet! I talked to my mom earlier today about Tori touring this fall and my little money problem.. and she said she'd pay for the tickets as a late birthday present to me.. so.. you guys.. what is the average price for a pretty good-to-excellent seat at a Tori show? o_O Megan S informed us that yes, the ex she's speaking of is the one she met at the wedding.. D'OH! well if he's that messed up in the head, you're better off without him.. but all the same, sorry to hear that it didn't last.. :P sounds like he needs a teensy bit of mental help.. nothing short of a nice white jacket brought to him by some really big nice men.. and now on to the next digest! fwee! Violet said in the retro for the 31st: "And only tangentially relating to RDT history: 20 years ago today, I (Violet) got married." whee! and in 2002.. my niece was born! WHEE!! oh boy.. I can't wait to see her tomorrow! (she's due to come home tomorrow, provided nothing happens between now and then :)) Ade said of her Brit. Literature teacher: "when he mentioned anne boleyn, i got "talula" stuck in my head and it's been there ever since. heh." dude while I was in the hospital visiting Deanna (my sister).. I had the beginning of Icicle (up until Tori starts singing) in my head the whole time, because to me that is seriously.. it makes me think of movie scenes where family members and friends are worriedly sitting around and pacing in a waiting room for some reason. *shrug* rofl.. Lavs bemoaned: "But the one thing I'm most distraught about is the 600-odd fonts I lost. I could cry." Lavs, honey.. www.acidfonts.com should get you started on getting that collection back to working order. :) Simon said in reply to my liking how he wished Tori happy birthday: "Would you expect me to have said it any other way? ;) It's tori we're talking about after all ;)" from you, no.. from anybody else, um.. probably. :) Simon then said to me: "Your boyfriend wants They Might Be Giants played at the wedding? In a few years we'll see you on one of the talk shows when they're doing their "Weird Wedding" stories ;)" that's **IF** we get married. I don't think we'll make it to that stage though. long distance relationships SUCK. However, if we break up.. we swore that we'd try to remain best friends, so that works for me. :) like I said before (I have been rambling nonstop to anybody who will listen.. about this.. I still can't believe I'm an aunt so just gimme a break here! lol), I can't WAIT to see my baby niece tomorrow if she comes home then! YAY! :) so therefore.. I must.. haul.. ass.. to.. BED!

My feelings about things like that are mixed- personally I've believed that trying to relate or empathize with other people's experiences is a good thing but I was always taught that attempting to relate or find a connection in someone else's story is selfish and equivalent to trying to steal from the persons who have actually been through something terrible or life-changing, claiming something that one isn't entitled to. While I used to operated under that assumption, more recently I come around to think that attitudes like that are false because even if you weren't there and can't actually feel what they've been through at least making a genuine effort to try to relate to or understand what happened is still ultimately positive. And drawing inspiration and encouragement from someone's account of dealing with difficulty or a challenge means the one who experienced has ultimately been able to help others. It's like what we feel when we listen to tori's music or read about what's happened to her. We're not claiming in a "me too" way, we're feeling a connection because of the powerful emotions she conveys to her audience, and feel inspired or helped by hearing her music dosen't mean we've tried to steal or misappropriate something that wasn't ours. Knowing someone else has overcome adversity helps in working through one's own difficult situation and I think tori feels good knowing that her music has helped so many of us :) Why not post what you wrote with a brief intro that lets the reader know it's fiction based on the events of 9/11? your friends are heathens. and you named your hamster Bunnicula? cool! :) sounds like the digital photography and video classes are a blast :) Speaking of which: it's not definite yet but there is a really good possibility that I might be going back to school this spring to pursue a computer graphic art degree. There's a local assistance program that I'm in the early stages of testing for to see if I qualify for their financial help and so far it looks good. Pursuing that degree means I can take what I've already learned (video production) and really update and build on it so I'd be open to more job possibilities later on (computer-related work rather than just conventional video work). So if all goes well I'll be a student again at the local community college. The only thing I'm really concerned about is that the head counselor at the disabled student services office there once told me that I wasn't welcome by the disabled community there (or elsewhere too from what she said) and I took that to mean *always* so yeah, I'm a little skittish about that if it turns out that I need to access whatever help I might need from them. That's part of where the "relating and connecting is stealing from people who've *actually* endured something difficult" mindset came from. The gist of what happened was that I got accused of exaggerating or outright faking my disability as a sick attention ploy and got "busted" when other disabled students figured that my disability wasn't legit based on the lack of certain secondary things I don't have to deal with that some other people do deal with because of their respective conditions, along with being seen doing things off campus in spite of being in a wheelchair. Things like hanging out with friends and going to movies. Short version of it: me just going about doing my thing during the day was seen as cheating since somehow I was seen as trying to make fun of people who were worse off than me. I did present real documentation about my condition and that just made them made a stronger fraud accusation and being so depressed back then I never thought I had the "right" to challenge it. So, I cut and run and let the "not welcome" thing drive a lot of what I was doing and I spent a long time feeling guilty about my own situation because I never thought I was being seen as a poser or interloper treading where I was supposed to know I wasn't welcome. Nowadays of course I know that was all crap but I still have a distrust of people in certain "support roles" because of what happened- and it's really hard to shake the idea that I risk being called a liar *because* I told the truth or accused of something nefarious merely because to them, it's like cheating if you can still pursue things you're interested in despite your limitations. I found far more acceptance among classmates and instructors who really didn't know much about helping someone in a wheelchair- they accepted me without question and never acted "duped" or imposed upon after helping me when I needed it, while the DSS people who are supposedly experts and advocates really enforce the whole "with friends like there, who needs enemies?" concept. yeah, I'm still a little paranoid about some things. I just don't have the resources to face legal action if access their services and their memories are as long as I think they are. megan a. gave us that karma ghost link. and I thought my sense of humor was weird ;) (sounds like you're off to a good start at college btw :) ) later! -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o [top] Date: Sun, 1 Sep 2002 16:24:00 -0300 From: "cdrv" <cdrv@arnet.com.ar> To: <rdtrn@torithoughts.org> Subject: Me Again! Hi Guys! I know I ALWAYS promise to keep my posts updated to the list, but I always get tangled wit everyday life and times flies! :) Madame Ade: Good that your School Day was nice!, I am studying in 3er year at the Teachers Training College, and though I HATE History I pretty much like the whole Period of Elizabeth 1, Funny I always remember Talula, when Anne Boleyn is named. Cyndi: Now you have to named the girl with a name that can be turned into some sort of a Tori Related nickname . i.e: Anastacia, Tori, Tash, Beene, etc :) Cyndi, you should go to www.hereinmyhead.com and in diagnosed sounds sections, in the SLG era download and save as target the live version of ICICLE from Los Angeles & BLACK SWAM from Toronto, Wicked! :) Well not much about my life, you know: My best friend (the one I once I asked the list for adviced) betrayed me, and used me to solve some problems of his. I was sad and desperate for a while, but then I realized that I am my best friend, and I don not want to get sick and bad people in my life, and that he was cheating and faking all the time. So I am much better on my own, rather than with someone who is a piece of cr*p and claims to be your best friend. It is all very UTP, the betrayal among men, I guess this time! I have started some sessions with a terapist, and it has been really helpfull. All in all, I am ok. I have been terribly hooked on Opera Singer, or vocalists with Operatic range, I specially love JOSH GROBAN (Love Him, he is the man! What a voice!), SARAH BRIGHTMAN (Truly the voice of an angel!), and Emma Shapplin (I love Her!). And this crazy idea of taking voice lessons is going round in my head, what do you think, should I ?. I do not know, I have been feeling great lately, I do not have to cope with ill people who are bad intentioned (my ex- best friend), and I have been feeling a lot independant and good. Waiting to getmy hands on the new Tori Album! So, I will try to post as much as I can :) See Ya Daniel -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o [top] Date: Sun, 1 Sep 2002 23:10:30 -0400 From: Cyndi S Crawford <cyndi.crawford@juno.com> To: candi4545@aol.com, torandnan@juno.com, acrowd49@aol.com, jcoffman@taurus.oursc.k12.ar.us, kimplicity@hotmail.com, lekia_thurman@yahoo.com, mleonard55@cox.net, chelleball32@hotmail.com, mindyboo20@aol.com, mjcentral@hotmail.com, mjfansreunion@yahoogroups.com, rdtrn@torithoughts.org, bluasice@onebox.com, royha@deepfrost.com, GoodCharlotteSan@aol.com, shannonmaryleestevens@hotmail.com, imursunshi9@hotmail.com, zoolmods@yahoo.no Subject: baby name! my niece has a name, now. :) I'm not too sure of the spelling of her middle name yet but as far as I know, her name is Bailey Anne McArthur.. being that her initials are now B A M..

Congratulations on becoming an aunt, Cyndi!! :-) :-) :-) About the women 2 watch transcript... I'm kinda glad that they mentioned Avril Lavigne... I really like her music. I mean, it's kinda juvenile at this point, but I can see her really going somewhere. I hope that she sticks around in the music industry long enough for her music to mature a bit, because I think she could really be a great artist someday. Like, Sk8er Boy is a cheesy pop song to the nth degree, but it's safe to say that most of the stuff on YKTR wasn't recognized as the work of a genius (yeah, "genius" may turn out to be a bit of a stretch for A.L., but I have high hopes for the girl... hehe). And, Tori would totally kick ass on a huge cathedral organ. Damn, I'm sure if there's a heaven, that's the kind of music that they play at the gates. ~Linda~ __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

Schwenk" <adam@adamschwenk.com> To: <rdtrn@torithoughts.org> Subject: Uhh yeah. Hey, howdy.... Not sure if anyone still even reads this list anymore, but I just re-subbed. MANY of the old folks are probably long gone, but just wanted to peep in and see how it's going. I used to be on this list back in 1994 or so and over the years lurked and contributed (you can do a search on the archives under Adam Schwenk to see more about what I posted). Let's see....over the years, haven't really been as big a tori fan as I was before. hopefully this new album will be worth it. Sorry to upset the peanut gallery ;-) but I was unimpressed with Strange Little Girls. It felt more like a decent covers album. Hopefully Tori's putting the full iron in the tire this time. Me? I graduated from college, went to work doing multimedia production and web design (you can see my work at http://www.adamschwenk.com), moved into wireless...got laid off. Now I'm working as a video game producer...which I really love. I had a boyfriend for almost 3 years, but that fell through. Now I haven't seen anyone in over 2 years and am feeling kinda lonely and isolated here in LA. Been thinking of relocating to chicago actually. Anyway, just wanted to say hey and see if anyone's still using the list. I'll be lurking for a while. if you'd like to know more just ask ;-) Oh, what i"m listening to lately? What I'm listening to: - ---------------------------- Beck - Sea Changes (damn you vile online file sharing services again ;-)) The Vines - Highly evolved (LOOOOOVE this album) Anastacia - both her albums Badly Drawn Boy - About a Boy Coldplay - A rush... Counting Crows - Hard Candy What I'm reading: ------------------------- Box Office Poison (LOVE this) The Ultimates Graphic Novel Lamb: The Gospel According to Biff, Christ's Childhood Pal (well, I'm going to read it anyway) The New X-Men (Grant is God) What I'm playing: ------------------------ Stuntman Super Mario Sunshine Warcraft 3 What recently inspired me: --------------------------------------- Gerhard Richter exhibit in Chicago Licking boots at The Eagle in Chicago <grin> Hope I didn't bore you guys. I'll talk more later if you like :-) adam -o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o [top] Date: Wed, 4 Sep 2002 00:29:45 -0500 (CDT) From: Chris <cmeyers@oasis.novia.net> To: rdtrn@torithoughts.org Subject: Oktorifest I was asking someone the other day if there was a Oktorifest....
