I have not yet entered into a static free zone. Buzz, buzz, buzz…my head is ready to fucking split. I asked him if it still mattered at all.
I am waiting for his reply.
I have been half way around my brain with this shit, and it just keeps coming up the same. And I am repeating myself, here in the dark, not quite alone.
In time.
p.s. patience please, my lovelies...I am listening.

I am so, so, so angry at you.
If you ever see this comment amidst the love and fun exchanged here, I know you'll know why.
Everyone else, greetings and salutations. I should be asleep right now. I switched to a night shift but for whatever reason I'm wired and the nicotine withdrawal really, really doesn't help. But I'm not gonna do it! I think.... Book reading time. I love all of you. I hope you have been good to each other while I've been away.
Btw L, I love that song. I haven't thought about those lyrics in a long time. They make so much sense. Thank you for posting.
Ok you have to see this....so funny!

Christmas! gotta love it!
It's Mychem dancing!
Sorry forgot to add that!
Aww!
Frank looks great as an elf, and he was funny in the radio interview too (as was Mikey, obviously)

Hey all! First of all thank you all for your thoughts over on DM. You guys own, you know? I'm sitting here all nervous and waiting without my girl, but you guys are making me feel all mellow nonetheless.
So I wanna see that interview but our random interview dropping anon hasn't broken up the link or linked it properly. Can anyone do that? It'll pass time and, well, seeing Frank is always a good thing. ^_^
Glad you liked it.
I have to go for a while, but will be back later!
Hugs to all of you.
And i hope your day is full of laughs.

PJ, thanks for posting. That is really cute. I had trouble getting it on my PC, but when I switched to the MAC side(I have parallels at work) it worked just fine.
K - good luck today, keep us posted.
Hi Kass, Gentle V., Anon.
P.S. There was no Bob. :(
And Toro's breasts were kind of distracting. O_O
K - I'm sending happy thoughts your way.
Hi (Anima &) Kapunua,
I heard you had a test - good luck with that, and have a nice day anyway.
Love,
Kass xx
FRANK! MIKEY!
DON'T LEAVE THE TAB! DON'T LEAVE THE TAB!
Email me, guys, I'll give you my address! Ship it all here.
And it's better on ice.

Kapunua,
Love to you and Trisky, we're thinking happy thoughts and saying prayers.
*kisses Trisky, pets her head*
We want to hear as soon as you can tell us.
J and L
Frank said "fanboys" and I love him for it. ^_^
Guys I can't thank you enough for all of these good thoughts. I really believe that this stuff works. :D Thank you so much!
That^^ should have been - I heard your dog had a test!
Honestly I have been paying attention...
Love anyway,
Kass xx
At the end of that interview, what did Frank say that Joe Hill said about MCR? I remember that name-check in the story, too; it was pretty cool. But I can't make out what Frank is saying about it.
That's a really sweet interview. There should be more of the other guys talking, and less of Gerard's BS.
I believe he said MCR were sellouts.
God I love that interview. It is so great to hear Mikey sounding so happy. Just loved his spider story. Wonder if Alicia's brother still has the spider.
Here is the NZ interview.
Not all that exciting. But it was nice to hear there is still talk of another album. :)
NZ Interview
Hey People!
Is somebody here?
Hey Elena,
It's great to hear Mikey saying anything at all!
For me any time we get to hear the other dudes speaking without Gerard - I don't mean that in a nasty way, just he seems to takeover the band interviews - is a good one.
We need more Tao of Frank, Bob, Ray & Mikey!!

Ah, Good Morning everyone, and Mayonaise!
Does anyone here know anything about ducks?

Hi Siobhan, Anima, Elena and whoever else happens to be on!
Hi Anima!
That what has no life can't be killed for it has never lived in the first place!
I know a bit, Amyranth, but it's mostly about husbandry and treating illnesses and injury. Different types, I couldn't tell you.
How do you kill that which has no life?
Hmmm, I suppose by letting IT know that IT is not really alive. Maybe it doesn't know it's not alive....
awwwh, that's so sad.
Hi Siobhan,
I didn't get a reply, but then I've written them dozens of letters over the years and that's the first one they ever printed.
There was one from an upset fan who waited hours in the freezing cold after a gig only to be ignored, though....

Well spotted kass79.
Kapu - I'm fairly certain it's a male Mallard, we're wondering about behaviour.
He's not afraid of the couple's rottie dog, although Amy wouldn't hurt the duck anyway. The duck hangs around the property and will accept bits of bread, and is apparently unafraid of humans as well.
My friend is worried that he won't fly south for the winter, and may die in the cold weather. She's wondering what to do about him.
-A
Are you a veggie Amyranth?
I thought I better ask before I impart my particular knowledge about ducks...
Kass xx
And thanks Anon, but remember - "The geek shall inherit the Earth"
There was one from an upset fan who waited hours in the freezing cold after a gig only to be ignored, though....
Sry, but I really don't get that. Common sense dictates that if it is cold enough to freeze water, then maybe you should:
a) Dress for the weather.
b) Not wait around outdoors for HOURS for a band that doesn't even know you're out there.
Sounds callous and cruel, but I think that you've gotta take certain things into consideration when it comes to concerts.
-A
I'm terrible with lines from shows. I have the worst memory. That South Park was friggin' hilarious. Did anyone see the 'Guitar Hero' episode? Priceless.
Amyranth, I know a little about Ducks.
Hi everyone here btw!
Kass
LOL! No, but I've never eaten duck, and probably never will.
-A
You guys,
Do I have to work today?
Hi Amyranth! Hi Kapunua!
I saw a Marilyn Manson interview today on MTV Germany and they asked him about the alleged Marilyn vs. Gerard(MCR) beef and MM's song 'Mutilation Is The Most Sincere Form Of Flattery' being about Gerard and the band.
MM said that it was not about them in particular, but about bands who use his ideas and water them up to make them more accessible for the mainstream audience.
Then they showed excerpts of MM's video for the song 'Coma White' and MCR's 'Welcome To The Black Parade' and I can tell you you can call MCR's video almost a remake of MM's video.
And that's not the only thing they have copied from that guy.
I think MM has all the right to be pissed off!
Amyranth, you could call local animal preservation and ask.
I'm thinking that Kapunua can probably help you out too.
I only know about ducks and how they mate. I'm a weirdo.
A,
I was once a hard-core poultry eater but ever since I was forced to pluck and gut a brace of pheasants we were once given as a gift I've kind of gone off it.
Cows are dumb, though. Cows deserve to be eaten...

Never mind the fact that he's also completely irrelevant in today's society. And he knows it.
-A ducks to avoid having things thrown at her.
Elena - Mayociates? The Royal Loyal Order of the Mayoneers?

Amyranth,
I totally agree!
Ir-fucking-relevant.
Kass, I thought they might have published some letters which responded to yours.
SDock - I don't even own one. Can't be bothered.
-A
Excuse me! Why is he irrelevant?
Marilyn Manson is nothing but the illegitimatae love child of Alice Cooper and Ozzy Osbourne.
And I'm glad to see Frank didn't copy MM's style of calling people "dwarves" like MM called him.
L.
I bought it years ago...for the song Coma White actually.
Anyhoo...
Just checked the Coma White vid on Youtube and I don't really see it. Sorry Siobhan!
It did remind me of how much I used to love Twiggy, though. MM's been rubbish since he left the band and Nine Inch Nails have been fabulous (the live show).
Kass xx
Cows are dumb, though. Cows deserve to be eaten...
O_O I'm sorry, but cows are not dumb. I know some dogs who are dumb, should they be eaten, too?
Hey, eat whatever you like, just don't try to justify it by saying that the animal deserves it.
As far as the mallard goes, it sounds like someone hand-raised it and then let it go. That happens a lot. People get them around Easter and then when they grow up and get messy, it's out the door. I'd call a local animal hospital; they could put you in touch with a rehabber or something who could tell you what to do. ^_^
sdock10 feels like a superhero said...
Mayo's Super Nymphs
Hells Yeah!!!
Siobhan,
Just my opinion...
The only similarity I see is the confetti falling. Parades and processions have a similar feel in real life and I think it is reflected in both the videos. I don't think it looks anything like a 'remake.' I also do not think that MCR has stolen anything from MM. But maybe that's just me.
How about....
"The Dollops"?
Heya everyone!
Oh, and Frank totally schooled MM on how to deal with adversity. Frank is made of class.
SDock - I don't even own one. Can't be bothered.
Well, I think then that you are not the right person to discuss his irrelevance, don't you think?
Oh, and let's not forget Ziggy Stardust. Yeah, MM never copied anything from THAT....
L.
I think that he is brilliant!
Just my opinion!!!
You know what I might do, guys? Because it's been poking my subconscious with a stick for about two weeks now? I might open that folder in my hard drive that says "novel" and re-read that bitch, see if I can get back to it. I dunno, maybe it'll help me to RELAX!!!
/Ren Hoek
I never said that MM wasn't inspired by other artists!
I would like to see the interview where he calls Frank a dwarf.
Can somebody give me the link?
Marylin Manson bores the Christ out of me. And anyway, if MCR copied anyone's videos, it was Nirvana's. Take a look at Teen Spirit beside Teenagers, and at WTTBP beside Heart Shaped Box.
OTOH, I don't think the band has THAT much say in their videos. Isn't it mostly in the hands of the directors and stuff?
I don't get involved when subjects such as these arise.
Music is special to each and every person. I sometimes wonder what people see, but I just appreciate that we all have differences in our tastes.
I, personally, never saw that Manson was everything everyone cracked him up to be.
The NIN live show they did recently (was it spring?) well regardless, it really kicked ass.
I'd eat dog Kapunua. Not your dog, obviously, but I'm not the kind of girl to discriminate much, unless it's actively cruel meat like fois gras.
My brother travelled across China and ate cat, dog, rat (very tasty apparently), pig penis ("chewy"), cockroaches, fried crickets and snake.

It was a radio interview and it was posted back on the MCR LJ a few months ago. Dude was just being an ass. He seemed a little mad. Frank actually confronted him and was like, "Hey, problem?" And MM got all, "Uhhh, nope." But then he took that parting shot in an interview. Total lack of class. But whatever, bands do that kind of thing.
siobhan,
Totally...you are entitled to your opinion.
I listen to plenty of stuff that I'm sure some would consider shit.
My boyfriend thinks everything I listen to is irrelevant and stupid.
I ejoy some of MM's music...I just don't find him brilliant.
Teenagers and Teen Spirit are ridiculously similar.
The thing that people need to realize is that it is virtually impossible now to do anything unique in music. Everything has been done before, and will be re-done and therefore "copied", by every other musician on the planet forever and ever, amen.
Yes, even playing an oboe with a violin string. I own that cd.

Fois gras is the popular thing to be deemed "cruel" when in fact, most of the meat industry passed "cruel" years ago and tipped over into "psychotic." most of my friends are vet techs and part of that training involved going into a typical slaughterhouse. Most of them came through as vegetarians and still have nightmares about it.
Like I said, eat what you want. But when people try to justify it with things like, "But at least it's not as bad as so and so" it gets silly. Slaughterhouses are cruel; there's no way around it. You just have to make the choice to still eat meat and live with it. Which is fine. But there's no denying it.
"Teenagers" was the total reproduction of "Teen Spirit" minus the weird janitor.
Like everything.
I love the story behind that video.
Which, Teen Spirit? What's the story?
Amyranth, Exactly. Everything in the past influences everything in the future.
ppu,
Are you lurking my beautiful purple unicorn?
I fucking miss you!
Nirvana's
Well, it isn't really a story perse, but...
Give me a second.
Didn't they use 'porn stars' in the video and it really pissed off Kurt?
Yeah, I thought that 'WTTBP' and 'Heart Shaped Box' are pretty similar.
There's nothing wrong with being inspired by others, but when it gets too obvious you should be able to admit that you were inspired by that specific band or artist.
Well, and lately Gerard seems to be a copy of Kurt Cobain, too. Does anyone remember Verita's first post?
That STILL gives me the shivers.
Wow, it's true....
Typing in black does make you invisible...
Awesome...I can talk to myselves.
I shall give my personalites names and start a conversation...
Awww Siobhan!
I do like some of Marilyn Manson's stuff - namely Antichrist Superstar & Mechanical Animals - but he, personally, seems a bit of a tosspot.
There was a Buzznet poll about the stupidest band feud which included MM vs. MCR, for the reason that they've admitted to stealing inspiration from a dozen other artists and he was upset that they left him out!
Kass xx
I had a great idea for Teenagers, but I'd be mocked for it being too much like "insert video here"

Awwwwwww, sdock10! You are not being ignored!!!
How are you?
I'm hearing you, Sdock. THis day can't go fast enough for me, either. Though I just found out that our office closes at SEVEN today, which means I might have to wait till then to pick Trisky up and get the results. >_>
Hi Anima,
Given that Sam Bauer directed both Smells Like Teen Spirit and WTTBP, I would say they're pretty similar for a reason!
He also did Bullet with Butterfly Wings, so maybe the Mama vid features a load of mud-wrestling Mexicans. We shall see...
Kass xx
Dave Grohl and Sam Bayer were talking about the video. The janitor that it's in there was the actual janitor at Sam's apartment.
Dave didn't understand why Sam just told the janitor to rock out to the music, because he said the dude was old and he probably didn't like the music anyway (it was funnier watching him tell this story).
If you notice on Dave's kickdrum, the name "Chaca" is on there. He said that that was their tribute to this grafitti artist in, I think it was either Seattle or Aberdeen, I can't remember which. He said he'd go around tagging everything he saw with his name.
The police finally caught up with Chaca, arrested him, and hauled him to jail. Dave was telling this story by the way. He said that Chaca even tagged the inside of the elevator as they were taking him in for booking and prints, so Dave thought that was pretty kickass and decided to pay tribute to that punk aesthetic.
Sam, throughout the piece, constantly said that Kurt didn't want to be there. Obviously. The kids you see in there moshing around and jumping all crazy-like, Sam said they didn't even have to ask for that to be done. That Kurt was just irritated by the end of having to shoot as were the kids for having to wait around.
Dave said that Sam would have to be the bad guy and use his megaphone. Dave said he'd say, "Shut. The. Fuck. UP!" Again, funnier if watching. So, by the end, Kurt had asked Sam if they could destroy the set (ala FLW) and Sam agreed. Dave said that that was the most fun Kurt had had all day, just tearing the shit out of everything.
Anyway...I thought it was a super cool thing. And at least the "Teen Spirit" kids didn't have to be choreographed. ;)
Bye Sdock. I am trying to work at the same time. It's not going so well.
I'd much rather talk about music. Stupid job.
That is kind of a cool story. ^_^ THanks for sharing that.
I'm so glad I have today OFF!

I hate thinking about VV's first post.
It was very scary to me because two to three weeks prior to that, I was super worried about the demise of this band, especially Gerard for all of the shit at PR.
I saw Kurt Cobain written all over him. Then I started seeing things about Nirvana out of nowhere, and shit about Kurt's death, and I was all torn up about it pretty much. I just new that we were going to lose another "tragic soul."
Then VV posted what she did. And it just put the icing on the cake.
It really weirded me out though.
It still does.
Just my opinion but I think MM is a angry little shit.
He totally made fun of Frank but won't say anything to his face.
What am I talking about? I meant that because they were a fan of Sam Bayer's work and asked him to do WTTBP, they were clearly aware of SLTS when they did Teenagers.
Insert brain---->Then start typing.
Honestly...
Kass xx
I just wish Sam would have made it a little less like 'Teen Spirit.' You really can't top that video so why even try; I think that is why that video was not all that well received.
I know, I hate that post of VV's. It's just too eerily similar. I mean, I'm glad someone is saying it, but reading it gives me the willies.
Can I please answer the phone at my job with "what the fuck do you want now?"
Please, just once....
Or when they say "can I ask you a question?"
Can I say..."fuck no you can't!"
Oh, I would feel so much better.
But, Sam didn't direct "Teenagers."
Marc directed it, but it was Gerard's idea.
If anything, Gerard STOLE IT!!!
Oooo, another thing for me to crucify his ass for.
SDock - "Can I ask you a question?"
"No, but I'll put you through to someone who you can talk to incessantly!"
-A
SDOCK:
Tell the to shut the fuck up, that you can't help them, then keep transferring them to the operator.
Then come back here and tell us about it! ;)
I like about MM that he seems to be honest with his opinions, even if he pisses people off with it!
I think it is more sincere to sometimes say that you don't like this or artist or that band instead of always telling the interviewer that you really, really love the other band or artist. And that you immediately have become friends. Ugh, please!
It's the same thing when actors who are promoting their current movie are talking about the crew as if they have become one big family when in reality they avoided each other like the pest.
I just don't buy it!
I'd rather know the truth, even if it is inconvenient!
Oh wait, Sam didn't direct 'teenagers', what the hell am I talking about?
I'll shut up now.
Mustard, thank you. I need to get my head out of my ass.
Oh you guys forget I live in a shit town...there is no operator. There is no automated service.
It's just me...having to talk with these stupid fuckers all fucking day.
Oh my fucking GOD! Are people really this fucking stupid? Yes, absofuckinglutely the are.
Fuck this shit! Fuck it all!
Fuck, fuck, fuck.
People, I am not a brain surgeon. This is not hard shit I do. Though I do like to do hard shit, a lot.
Yes MIB, I'm a muppet, see above^^
I do suppose it's hard to do a video for a song called 'Teenagers' without featuring the high school thing. Although they did once say they'd never do a video that was just them performing in front of a room full of 'fans'.
VV's comparison was quite spooky. Everytime she tries to post on BN now they get her shut down, poor thing!
Kass xx
Have any of you seen "About a Son?"
Sam directed WTTBP and FLW. And Bullet with Bufferfly Wings. And he's making millions of dollars.
We get confused Anima. No biggie. I wish I didn't pay attention to the backstage stuff like that. It makes it less convenient to recall. ;)
Sdock10,
Pretend to be an automated reply service that tells them to call only on Fridays from 10am-2pm. I have done this on the rare occasions when the absence of management corresponds to periods of PMS/PMT.
But I deal with morons so I've never been caught.
Kass xx
No, I haven't.
What's it about?!
sdock pick up the phone in a very sweet voice say
fuck fuck fuckidy fuck can I help you?
Then wait for the silence
Oh, Elena! That's a good one.
I'd do that.
Sdock: I once accidentally answered the phone with: "Hello, (hospital's name) this is Jules speaking, how may I hurt you?" Fortunately it was another co-worker calling from out satellite business. All the clients up front heard me though. O_O
Siobhan: That may be, but MM didn't say that to Frank's face. When confronted he got all, "uhh...." and then later on the radio took a pathetic parting shot at Frank. That made me lose more respect for him.
Some Anon over at DM said that Gerard could be the next David Lee Roth. I sadly do see the comparison, you know, with the machismo and Big Man talk. OTOH I'd rather see him as the new DLR rather than the new Kurt Cobain, even though I really believe that Kurt was the better person.
I can relate almost every band I hear not with a band I've heard before, for one reason or another. Not in the "rip off" sense, but more in that patterns repeat. Like I see a little bit of Soundgarden in Taking Back Sunday. I hear a little Soul Asylum in The used. That kind of thing.
I see a little Dave Grohl in Frank Iero, if only because I think they are both really sincere dudes who are in music just for the passion of it, and that they will both always be in music and just for that reason. You know? Ray, too.
Oh my fucking GOD! Are people really this fucking stupid? Yes, absofuckinglutely the are.
Poor Sdock. I wish you could tell them to "fuck off."
So Gerard is the one who stole it? Again, you can't top SLTS. Impossible. He should have done something totally different. But oh well, what's done is done.
I agree with all of that, Kapunua.
Anima:
Gerard did steal it. ;) I blame everything on Gerard now. He's the cause of global warming, too.
Those dance moves and making people simulate sex gets the world ALL HEATED UP!!!
*kidding*
"About a Son" is an indie film that is basically narrated by Kurt. During his last year alive, a journalist interviewed him several times at his home. The visual of the movie is good, but the words are the most interesting part. I could have shut my eyes and listened to Kurt and been fine.
Let me find the trailer for you.
Dave Lee Roth?
That would make Ray Eddie Van Halen! Until you've seen the guitar noodling on Eruption, you've never seen guitar noodling.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ULEBSxP725w
THAT'S where I remember seeing that!!!
I know exactly what you're talking about Anima. I wanted to see that, but I suppose I'll have to wait until they release it on DVD. It was only played in select theatres, was it not?
Man, I love Nirvana. And it makes me sad to think about them, too. That's really weird.
About a Son Trailer
You won't leave this movie feeling good, but it is definitely an eye-opener into Kurt's world. He speaks the truth and I really admire it.
*secretly thinks Ray outclasses EVH*
BLASPHEME
You guys are so sweet.
Thanks for listening to me rant.
I love ya'll for that.
I remember the day I heard about Kurt. It was on a Saturday, and I was cleaning my apartment with MTV on. (This was back when they still played videos)
I was just stunned. I sat down on the floor and cried like a baby. I watched the memorial service later and it just broke my heart.
I admit, the comparisons have gone through my head about Gerard. I hope he has even an inkling about the people who care about him, not just family and friends, but people who's lives he has touched and never knew it.
Kurt was not a hero. I'm still angry with him. I know many people hate Courtney Love, but I have admired her.
She is still here.
L.
SDock - I used to work at PetSmart and one day me and the store manager were having a laugh at the till.
The phone rang, and I sorta forgot where I was so I answered with "Hello!".
The District Manager on the other end said "... Thank you for calling PetSmart..."

Scroll down to the second "FRED LERO" post.
It's of Frank with an excited face.

I'm still laughing about Mikey talking about Spiders and Tab. Damn that set the mood for the day.
Talk more often Mikey Way.
It makes me smile
Crap. You can't click on it - I don't understand this html stuff!
Anyway, have a splendid night people and I hope Trisky's OK, Kapunua - I cried buckets when my hamster got ill.
Love,

I'm not sure when it will be coming out on DVD, but you are right it is only playing at select theaters. It came through my town for only a week.
There was also a Joy Division movie that came through, but I missed it. I'm waiting for it to be out on Netflix.
Yes Kapunua! MM should have had the balls to tell it to Frank's face instead of mocking him behind his back. Don't know why he did that. But still, I prefer artists who speak their mind and don't kiss other people's asses most of the time like Gerard does.
You can't like everybody. It just seems so insincere.
I'm gonna have to see it Anima.
I totally get you. I started crying yesterday while watching some old interviews of them, he, Dave, and Kris. Kurt was talking then it shot to a picture of him hold his little baby girl, and I pretty much lost it. I'm so ashamed for not being aware of the "Nirvana Movement." I would have been a little young to have fully embraced it.
Thank you for posting the trailer.
I'm off to watch it now.
Be right back.

About a Son Trailer
That's so upsetting. I wonder if Gerard will watch it. In some ways I think he should, but in others I think he shouldn't because I suspect he tries, a lot of the time, for this kind of attention and worry. This kind of comparison. How bad does it have to get?
Kass, thank you for the well-wishes. I hate waiting!
I'll keep most of my thoughts on COurtney Love to myself except to say this: cockroaches are still here, too.
Mikey totally won in that interview, Elena.
I was in hysterics listening to Frank talk about the "full colored plasma screen" spider.
Mikey is so funny when he's allowed to be ;)
That icon is histerical.
Mustard, dude, I remember where I was when I heard about Kurt. I remember what I was saying, who I was saying it to, what was on TV, the entire day.
But I also remember what was going on when I heard about John Lennon, too, and I was just wee when that happened. (I was 7 or 8.) Even back then, John Lennon was my favorite songwriter and I remember just where I was when I heard about it.
On the other hand, my memory is really, really, like crazily long and detailed. O_O So that's just me.
Kapunua:
Have you seen the documentary "The U.S. vs. John Lennon"?
I think the guys should all see it. Maybe it would put some things in perspective. I dunno.
I heard on the radio that some other stuff was released regarding Kurt and it really upset Dave. Dave said it just opened a lot of old wounds and old memories that he tucked away. And that he misses Kurt a lot and wished it had been different. (not his exact words, but something like that.)
Isn't that really sad?
Mustard, I can't even read any of the comments there. I can't help but feel sorry for Eliza for the way she got treated after all of this and continues to get treated. And the way everyone's got their head up Lyn Z's ass is ridiculous.
I haven't, Mustard, but I do know a bit about that whole theory. O_O
Understandable Kapunua, I know Courtney is not a well-liked person.
She's made lots of bad choices, but I think she's had a rough life too.
Love ya,
L.
I heard that as well, Anima.
He and Kurt were so super close. I see a lot of that in Frank and Gerard.
Keep in mind that Dave also doesn't believe that Kurt committed suicide. I'm just sayin'...
I think Dave wanted that part gone from his mind. I think these interviews they're doing with him, and all of the stuff surrounding these documentaries has just made him relive that April day.
I wouldn't want to have to do that either.
Mustard
How do we "free" Mikey so he'll talk more?
He and Frank together are so funny. Damn I love those guys.
I loved Mikey talking about telling a story "before I forget"
Here is the Joy Division trailer if anyone is interested. It's mostly about Ian, but still it looks really interesting. It's based on a book his wife wrote.

Hi everybody how are you? I have the interview with Frank and Mikey he is so funny and they were having a good time I didn't want it to end.
MM is a dickhead he is full of himself. Not just because of the Mcr stuff but the asshole was trying to get publicity off the Vtech shooting. No one brought up his name in connection to that thing but in an interview he went on about how it was going to be blamed on him.
I used to like MM music but he is just to full of himself now. I don't know where he gets off saying Mcr stolen video idea from him. Have you seen most of the videos these days they are all the same thing over and over again. Especial Hip hop and rap.
Elena:
We seperate Mikey from Gerard, force Mikey to say something funny, and tell Gerard to keep his trap shut.
;)
Keep in mind that Dave also doesn't believe that Kurt committed suicide. I did not know that.
What is strange about the interviews is that it doesn't seem like Kurt was really all that upset about his life. He hated being 'big' and how it effected his personal life (tabloids,etc), but other than that, he seemed to really understand where he came from. Plus when he talks about his father not being there and how he would never do that to Frances, it makes me wonder.
We will never know for sure.
Leaving for now, guys.
Talk to you later!
Love,
L.
Hello MJ!
Wasn't it though?!
I gotta dash for a bit. Clean house and start working on supper. Tonight's menu is Chicken and Broccoli Rissoto with White Wine. YUMMMMM..
-A
Later L. and Amy! hope to see you guys on later.
Keep in mind that Dave also doesn't believe that Kurt committed suicide. I'm just sayin'...
I didn't know that. Where has Dave made reference to that? I'd love to read it.
For the record, I don't actually believe he killed himself either. But I also don't think Courntey Love did it. And I also DO think that Kurt would have done it eventually. I just think that in this case, he didn't.
Hey. Has anyone seen that video on youtube where it's just Frank laughing at all different times? Frank laughing = me feeling better.
Bye L!!! Have a good day :)
Anima:
If I can find the article where he said that, I'll post it. It's been a few months back, before all of this stuff with the band started. I'll have to hunt for it.
But, he did say that he doesn't believe he committed suicide. Kapunua can tell you more about it, because I believe she's done some research like I have. We already kinda had this discussion before. The amount of drugs that he had in his body would have prevented it.
Dave never came out and said who he thought did it, but obviously all fingers point to Courtney.
But, you're right. We're never going to know. And that pisses me off, because I still feel like Kurt's in limbo and will never be at peace.
This sucks I can't see the Franck icon the link won't copy for me when you break it up

Yes.
I'll look at Youtube for the vid.
MJ, you may have to physically type it in instead of C&P.
I don't know why they always mess up on blogger.
What are you guy's favorite youtube links?
Not to really change the subject, but it's a little depressing. Maybe something fun?
Hi mib and later amy and l

I love that Frank laughing video. Didn't he remark one time that he had a "stoner" laugh? Too cute.
.
.
.
I gotta run. I'll be back later.
Bye all!
Except that last one sucks ass.
Its the one with Bob and he's making fun of him for choosing Spiderman, and then the one where they ask Gerard about turning 30.
And what I wouldn't give to hear this again:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dGXPEh1c9l0&feature=related
Than you anima and talk to you later. I never liked the hair dress myself and I don't really feel sorry for her but the way the sans just treat her is very telling. If people want to talk about her let them.
Favorite youtube clips:
The Wii Is Gone. Anyone who went on a Wii hunt last year will get every. Single Reference. ANd it's brilliant. I love his Mom in this one. "What the hell's Tar-zhay, well do they have one?" This one has me in tears, it's so funny. This kid deserves fame.
Monty Python's tinny and woody words.
Zelda: I wonder what's for dinner? An old cartoon remix. You know the sort. "I'll grab my stuff!" "there is no time. Your face is enough!" "I'm so hungry, I could eat Ganon for dinner."
Frank being a hero, talking about vegetarianism and animal rights, animal testing etc. THERE ARE NOT ENOUGH OF FRANK IN THE WORLD.
Cloud's dream. A hilarious remix of the Advent Children movie. This is still one of my favorites. Yes, that is Monty Python music in the beginning, Benny Hill music towards the middle. The part with all the screaminig annoys me, but the rest is good. "Smother me in gravy, you big dirty man." The Bohemian Rhapsody part is very well done.
Cal State band's brilliant half-time video game tribute. I actually get chills, because I'm the biggest, stupidest geek like that. When they yell "MORTAL KOMBAT" and at the Zelda part. I know I linked this here before, but it bears linking again for its brilliance.
Adam and Fred's 12 Days of Christmas. Again, I know I linked this before, but it's so seasonally appropriate, and goddamn, just hilarious.
Anyone else got some goodies?
Mustard, I was also gonna link to the one with Gerard laughing, because it's an awesome laugh. "KyahaHAAA!"
But you never hear it anymore, and when you do, it's hollow.
I'll take about 3 of the last one, please!
;)
I'm going to go back and watch the rest in a few.
Kapunua:
OMG.
You totally typed out Gerard's laugh. I tryed reading his laugh and it REALLY works!!!
hi guys!
hope everyone is good.
hi mayo!

I use this one as a pick-me-up:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VY9iCKMMCL4&feature=related
Hey FASC!
It was great, wasn't it?!
Oh I missed two of your blogs Mayo, I am sorry. Time gets away, especially around the holidays. As for the most recent post... For some odd reason it reminds me of 'KASHWAK = NO-FO,' from Stephen King's Cell.
yup MIB rally great!!
just having a bit of a catch up!
i meant fucking REALLY obviously - i've done that one before!! idiot!
hello shae and fasc how are you?
Oh, I used to love Gerard's laugh. It could only be described as "raucous." ^_^
Oh man, how the hell could I forget one of my alltime favorites!
THE BALLS ARE INERT! It doesn't make a bit of difference, guys. I think the stress is getting to my BALLS. The balls in my other pants pocket make a bit of difference, guys!
Hi FASC, MJ and Shae! Man, I forgot about that part of Cell.
I loves me some King.
hello kapu how are you and how is your dogie
Yes Kapuna, Stephen Kind justs wins. No question.
I heard they're going to make Cell into a movie, but it might just be a rumor spawned by Wikipedia.
Dunno yet, MJ. I have to call in an hour, though they may not even have done anything yet. I'll let you know. ^_^
Stephen King wins, but most movies based on his books are EPIC FAIL. Most, not all.

I'm OBSESSED with Joy Division.
I need to buy it on DVD when it comes out, 'cause it got limited release but only about 4 hours away from here.
SS? I'm not sure if I'm glad you're no longer confused or not. Well if you've found your answer, I hope it's one that makes you happy. ^_^
I don't know, it just made me think.
Lolita, it looks really interesting doesn't it. But from what I know about Ian, his story is pretty tragic. I'm a JD fan too, but I was more of a New Order fan back in the day.
K - thank you for all those links. I enjoyed them all.
Mustard, thank you too. The guys' laughs make me smile. Gerard's is just as endearing as Frank's.
Hello Mayo and SS, I hope you are well.
Hello Everyone, how are you?
Kapunua, I hope Trisky is OK.
People, do you mind if I share something with you? It's not about MCR and it's not happy but it is what is going on in my life right now.
Thank you so much, MissT. And of course you can tell us what's going on in your life. Maybe we can help/ or at least just listen. ^_^
Thanks K.
I have posted this on my bolg but I wanted to share it here too so that you realise if I don't sound too happy and chipper today.
My cousin Dominic
Well, today is the three year anniversary of the death of my cousin Dominic. I still miss him so much. He was only 25 years old and he made me laugh more than anyone else on earth.
His death will always be a mystery, we don't have any answers. It was awful getting that phone call in the early hours from my Auntie Anne. We drove to her house and all huddled together as we waited for news. The police were fucking shit, every time we heard from them it was a different story.
Dominic was from Sheffield like me but he was living with his girlfriend in Stoke. He didn't like it there and came back to Sheffield often. He had not long been doing the job of a postman and he was really enjoying it. Even so, he and his girlfriend were planning to come back to Sheffield.
We were due to see Dominic again at Christmas time but the Sunday before his death, we decided to go to a car boot sale. We had never been to this one before and we couldn't believe it when we bumped into Dominic there. It was a lovely surprise. I didn't then of course that it would be the last time I would see him alive. His younger brother to this day still goes to that car boot sale every Sunday (I don't think he had ever been to one in his life before this happened) as it is a link to his brother.
From what we learned of the events that night, this is what occurred. My cousin was on his works Christmas do. He had been drinking but they had been out all day so it was spread out and he wasn't drunk. There were no drugs in his system, Dominic wasn't like that. None of our family partake of those kinds of things, we are a nice bunch. If you met us I'm sure you'd agree. He had been looking after one of the girls in the party who was a little the worse for wear. He took her outside for fresh air and the others joined them . Everyone said that Dominic was not pissed or out of his head and he totally had his wits about him, so it is a mystery as to why what happened next happened.
They all got into a taxi to go home and suddenly my cousin said "I have to go somewhere" and got out of the car and ran off. He was later spotted on CCTV on a roundabout. After that we don't know how he ended up where he did as there were no more cameras on that stretch. My cousin was hit and killed trying to cross a motorway and no one has the faintest idea what he was doing there.
We know he wasn't pissed or drugged, we know he wasn't trying to kill himself but we don't and will never know what he was doing there. He was killed instantly, which was better for him as he didn't suffer. The lady who hit him wasn't drunk and there was nothing they could do to prevent the accident. No one was to blame, which I'm glad cos otherwise I would have hunted that person down and killed them with my bare hands, no joke.
It was awful viewing his battered and broke body at the funeral home. His ankles were all broken and his feet hung over the end of the bed. It was heartbreaking. He had broken almost every bone in his body.
His funeral was lovely, it was held in a church which is a couple of roads away from my house and just around the corner from the school me, my sis and my cousins attended. I am anti religion and I was thinking that if the vicar got all religious I was gonna leap up and smack him, I was so angry about Dom's death. Instead he said "what can I tell you, when I hear of a tragedy like this I question if there is a god and I don't know the answer". From then on it was all talk about Dom and his life. We had a huge projection screen up and showed many photo's of him and the only religious aspect was the couple of hymns that were sung. I think the vicar did a wonderful job, it just felt so right.
On the way to the graveyard I noticed that at one point, a postman stopped as he saw the cars go past and he took his has off and bowed down. As Dom had been a postman I thought how strange but touching that was. I remembered how my Dad was mad about buses and on the day of his funeral as the cars were going up the street, we reached the school me and my sis went to and a bus was coming down the road. The driver stopped and bowed his head. These things are weird but comforting.
Well, I'm thinking of Dom today and I just wanted you to know about my beautiful wonderful cousin Dominic.
MissT, that is such a sad story. Open-ended deaths like that leave you feeling so hollow. i think as humans we always need answers and sometimes that's the only thing that can help us with our grief. It's natural to wonder why. Being denied the answer is so painful.
I'm sorry this happened to your cousin and your family. It's always so much harder around the holidays when everyone is telling you to be merry.
Well remember, we're here if you want to talk some more, huh?
MissT, I was just visiting your blog. I left you another message.
Thank you K.
I am missing him today and I just wanted to talk about him a little.
Thank you Anima.
Today of all days you find that quote. Seems kind of fitting really.
Thanks again. It was beautiful.
Going to pick up Trisky, guys. Still don' know anything yet.
So K, when do you find out about your dog?
