”Thelma?
Yes. Louise. – what?
This is great. Yes. This is great. We are over 20 years older than anyone here and we are the only ones dancing. Why is that?
Because we are asses. We know we should dance – others are just watching. The night will be over and they haven’t danced.
What dance are you dancing Louise?
It doesn’t matter. Over hills, high fences or a sunny day – new + old friends – just dance when the music plays.
Louise –does that mean we don’t have to do the cliff thing? Should we keep dancing?
Always. Always. -(unsigned)”

”Boredom drove me away from my home. Yes, pure boredom impacted my life so much so that I had to get away from it, far, far away. So I ran; I packed up my jeep with my life’s belongings and ran south. I ran to the Keys – I thought how great it would be to party 24/7 in Key West – that could never be too boring. Right? Well, I was wrong; after a few days the Keys got a bit boring. So, I headed back north. Back home towards PA. And I stopped just off I 95 in Savannah, GA + loved it! It seemed quaint, yet fun, and not to too boring. I ended up staying for almost 2 years + got my first apartment, a puppy, some friends… And I found myself. It was absolutely fabulous! So boredom drove me there but my family, my soul, my ambition and a few other things brought me back. It’s changed me a lot, but it’s good to be home! -(unsigned)”

I met a guy in college. We liked each other, hung out + had a good time. Then he called me one night + told my roommate that I was hot + looked like a Thundercat. Who says you’re hot + Thundercat in the same sentence. What an idiot. If that wasn’t enough of an insult he said that it was the male Thundercat that I reminded him of… not the female. What does that say about him? Anyway, long story short… I liked him + he called me a cartoon animal. He sucks. -(unsigned)”

”Every day at least one person asks me if I know how short I am? Like living in this body day after day doesn’t remind me of being 5 feet tall. But the sole reason I got shafted on the hieght is that my twin brother stole my milk from me everyday. He finished his bottle and then crawled his chubby little ass across then floor and drunk mine. He is the reason I am so short and that I hate milk today Damn Brubby!!! -(unsigned)”

”I was sitting in the bar with Quinny she was nakes it was nice. To much people to much noice. I love to be next to a nake girl but the noise get to me I can’t see her. The noise is too much the noise inspires me to write and to dance with her naked. Ohh laha –J. P.”

”The one thing that had a major impact on me – would have to be a friend of mine named Carl. We have known each other since Kindergarden. He had different views on life + especially music. He opened up new doors to my way of thinking + writing music + introduced me to music genres I wasn’t familiar with. Music has always been the main "connection" between us. We still are friends to this day. Music at different points in time almost – well – I should say – DID always cause us to fight + tear us apart. But always brought us back – to talk to one another throughout the years. He has now gotten out – on his own with some friends of his + is playing out for the first time in his life. He’s happy. I don’t do music that much any more except for my own entertainment.

”Every minute in a person’s life has the opportunity to make an impact. It’s realizing the moment that truly makes the impact. I am mainly impacted by people, one in particular though. One moment w/one person. It was a summer evening on the cusp of dusk. I can + believe that a sensible person like myself is vulnerable to a summer’s eve at dusk but stranger events have happened. That night I found all the missing pieces to a poor man’s jig saw puzzle. It was raw, unforgiving, and hard to take but made me a softer person for it. The person that was with me that night has grown to be a perfect person in my eyes. On the road that evening my life took a turn… I have never looked back. -(signed illegibly)

The major impact on my life; acid, XTC, Xanex, weed, loratabs, vicodin, oxycotin, Crown Royal, Hieniken, Miller Lite, Bud, Bud lite, 40's, Blunts, & bitches! Sex!! -G. P.”

”Psalms 19... The Heavens "declare" the work of the Lord. The laws of the Lord are sweeter than honey from the comb. -B. S.”

”My sister's divorce had a major impact on my life. It was the first time I had more than a cursory intamacy with either of my siblings. We've since been extremely close and cannot remember a time when we weren't. It took an adverse event, but it taught the three of us, albeit late, both the meaning and purpose of family. –M. F.”

”Having to quit my first job...
I never thought about what I wanted or should want out of life during my late teens and early twenties... I just kind of went with the tide. I was hired immediately out of college - great job with great pay, great benefits, great future - I hated it. So, I had to think for the first time. I decided to change course - go from business to teaching, which required a whole new degree. All is well now. Working with kids is what I was meant to do! -J.”

”Photography. Being able to capture the moment in time in a still frame and sharing it with the world exactly the way you saw it. Letting people see through your eyes. –J.”

”Giving birth and raising a child has been the most rewarding, enlightening, challenging, and life/mind/body/soul - altering thing. I now know true worry, concern, selflessness, and unconditional love. Any parent would agree that there is no greater impact than your love for a child. –D. S.”

”To learn the true meaning of friendship is a bitch! That's one thing that has impacted my life forever & always! Never trust the first person who pretends to care, never give a shoulder to cry, cuz where are they now? Their shoulder's not there when your lifes in despair. Love yourself first and maybe if someone's worthy enough love them with caution. –An Angry Bitch”
