BLACK FRANCIS
"What I used to worry about Christmas as a kid was the back of the Christmas tree. It faced the wall and never got enough decoration or attention. I thought it must feel neglected, and that concerned me. I used to string popcorn and cranberries with needle and thread and hang 'em on there.
And I still remember how my grandma really scared the shit out of me one Christmas when I was really young. It was a real dark Christmas Eve and she told me Santa was coming and pointed to this red light in the sky. It was an aeroplane circling, but I thought it was Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer, I mean I was a shy kid and there he f***in' was, Rudolph, coming down for ME, blink blink blink! So I ran, terrified, to my bed, to dive under the covers, and my grandmother tiptoed out on the balcony outside my window and started shaking sleigh bells! What a prank! But for a long time then I was terrified of Santa.
I remember one Christmas Eve sweating all night, just lying there in bed, waiting for the hooves to land on the roof. In the morning I was exhausted. It was such horrible anticipation. Nowadays, Christmas is a lot more adult, I guess. My parents are divorced, so I have to decide which one I love and which one I hate. If I go to my father, I help him work his bar on Christmas Day, which is pretty cool." |

That's a very stalkerish thing to say

Nah, Crouton's alright. I wouldn't worry, that is, not unless he starts wearing a WWFT bracelet.

| Nothing, nothing at all. I have no idea what that means, either, nor would I have one myself. How silly! |

I saw someone else post WWFT elsewhere and it took me 'till reading this thread to figure it out. Hi-larious. Keep an eye on e-bay in the coming weeks. :)

Ha ha ha, Yeah. I guess you could say everyone kind of has some kind of story like that to share, But none the less it was a very intresting one... And the last time I checked out Alec Effiel (The Not So French Pixies Page) I never saw that article. Could it be new?, Probaly not, As you know they never update that site anymore.
Cult Of Ray you say?, I mean The Cult Of J www.The-Cult.vze.com |
