It _could_ be that they assume that all post functionaries are idiots, so
that all the post functionaries know where to put the stamp if they ever
should post one of these pre-printed envelopes.

	Why is it that two-sided documents say "over" at the bottom of the
first side? If it were really over, there wouldn't be anything on the second
side. But one-sided documents don't say "over," so you think it's not over,
and you turn it around, and there's nothing on the other side!

well, there are two other sorts of instances that encourage one to think in a
manner similar to the question you pose. #1) where does your lap go when you
stand up? It certainly isn't in the same spot as it was, if even it still
exists. #2) if home is where you hang your hat, and you hang your hat at some
other person's home, do you automatically reposess their house? if you hang
your hat up at work, does the company become yours? there are an endless
number of possibilities here.

Hi!

I have been thinking of buying me a Pocher Classic model car. They are
quite expensive here  in Sweden  (from 420  USD up  to 750  USD) and I
wonder if they could be somewhat cheaper in the states?

How much  does a  Pocher Alfa  Romeo, Bugatti  or Rolls  Royce Phantom
cost, and does anybody know of  any mail-order company that could send
one to Sweden?

Many thanks in advance!

This may be the best kit I've built this year, but not the best

Overall appearance      ****            (on a scale from 1 to 5)
Level of detailing      ****
Flash                   ****
        and what little there is is easy to remove
Sinkmarks               *****
Parts fit               *****
        practically no filler required
Decals                  ****
        you have a choice of 7 different aircraft
Instructions            *****
        for example, there are instructions on how to make
        brakelines on your own with thin copper wire; the angle
        of landing gear an wheel is clearly shown; etc
Design                  *****

There are optional parts for gear up/down, cowling flaps
open/closed -- with the instructions saying when either would be
appropriate, canopy open/closed and a choice of anti-aircraft
bombs or rockets.

Highly recommended.

I want a model of FIAT 600 (small Italian car, made from 1955 to
1974(I think)). I've seen two different models of it, one plastic and
one metallic. I heard that one company in Japan is still making a
model of it, but I doubt that it isn't either of those. But it doesn't
matter... The company's name is something like "Gun Tse Sanyo" (they
didn't know the exact spelling here in one model shop but said it is
something like that).

I'd really appreciate it if someone could at least point me to some
direction where I could find model of this car...

I think you can try Model Expo. It's the Pocher dealer now in North America.
The cheapest Alfa Romeo Muletto is $235, Alfa Romeo Spider $300.
Rolls Royce is $400-$415, same as the Bugatti and Mercedes.

Hey...

I noticed that on the Arsenio performance, Everlast was a little behind the
beat throughout the song, but I just figured that he was experimenting with
a lazier style of rapping, you know how Pete Rock purposely flows a little
behind the beat?? Pete Rock sounds cool when he's doing in but apparently
Everlast's "experiment" was a failure! :) Some people need to just stick to

House of Pain is one big front.  They've got slammin tracks, courtesy of
Muggs, but the rest of it is all a fronted style.  I wish they were
true, but when you see Everlast on his first album looking like Rocky
Balboa with perfect hair, and then on his next one looking like a
hardcore leprechaun, you've got to start to wonder.  I still listen to
the tape because it's got some good stuff on it but it's real
disappointing when you realize that the Irish homeboy talk on the album
is all contrived just to sell records.  People bust on Marky Mark for
comin off like he's hardcore (don't get me wrong, I do too because he's
fake as hell) but not many realize what's going on with the House of
Pain.  If I'm wrong about this, and the earlier Everlast style was fake,
but the one now is true, then inform me and disregard the above. 
alright, and i'm out....

In there like Prego,

I think with all this talk about Malcolm X the main thing to keep in mind is:

	DON'T JUST PUT THE X ON YOUR HEAD, PUT IT IN YOUR HEAD

I can't count the number of suckers I have seen sportin' the X cap who I know
don't know shit about the man or his message. I have read at least 20+ books
on the Nation of Islam, Malcolm X, and the Black Panthers. I even chose to do
my SUFFICIENCY, which is 25 page research paper on the Black Muslims. The only
Malcolm X thing I own is a shirt I bought 2.5 years ago (at least) when it 
wasn't "cool" yet to wear his stuff. I am white and I still see the messages
of Malcolm overlooked by whites as well. Racism taught Racism and only by 
totally denouncing it (ie Black Supremacy is wrong as well) can one start to
stop ALL forms of racism and start to improve humanity. Wear the Hat, buy the
clothes but at least read his Autobiography and if you want to know about the
way Malcolm REALLY thought his lasy days, pick "The last year of Malcom X"

i may get flamed for speaking for him, i think that maybe he was
speaking with quotes around "devils".  at least that's how i read it.
he may not have been speaking on his own behalf but as the "devil's (no
pun intended) advocate.

To your question about who Sade is, where you been, b?? She's been out for
years now...This is her 4th album(1st in 3 years, thats what the fuss is about)
Its a smooth, jazzy group with a female vocalist named Sade Adu...their sound
is a stripped down, slow, sometimes funky drum beat, guitars, a real stripped
down sound..its hard to explain, but she's sold *millions* of records world-
wide....I guess the best thing I can tell you is to watch the show on Saturday,
even though I must say that her live performances dont pack the punch that the
sound on her recordings does, check it out...

YES! YES! YES!  Finally somebody steps up and gives BDP the ultimate props they
deserve for "Sex and Violence."  I know it wasn't slept on before, but as far
as album of the year goes, no way in hell it should be slept on now!  BOOGIE
DOWN PRODUCTIONS RULES!!!!!!!!

(P.S.: Actually, I'm torn between "Sex & Violence" and "Mecca and the Soul 
Brother" for LP of the year, but as far as I'm concerned right now, it's a
tie.)
