Do we have digital copies of D1? I came across a printed version of it and want to know if I need to hold onto it or not.

By the way, in going through all of my stuff for what to save and throw away, I found a chart that Amanda, Justin and I made. It lists how we think everyone in 'the group' thinks about everyone else in 'the group'. It's a big list that includes everyone from Chris Todd to Tammy Batdorf. The antagonistic part of me really wants to figure out away to post the results, but it's just not worth it. So instead I satiated that want by merely mentioning it.

Here's something mildly humorous. This is an excerpt from some paper one of our friends (Amanda I think?) had to grade or look over or something. It's a perfect example of the brain power of the more intelligent conservatives in the world. The spelling and grammar is exactly as I relay it here.
"there is no cure for mental retardness there is is no cure for homosexuality.
On december 15, 1973 a land mark event happened in the world of homosexuality. The American Pschiatric Assosciation announced that homosexuality no longer on their list of mental disorders. This was a big boost to gay community.
Today there is much research being done on the cause and cure of homosexuality. In the past doctors have tried all kinds of methods to cure homosexuality everything from shock treatmenrt to brain surgery. but there is no evidence that any of it ever made anyone change their sexuality. Now doctors and psychologists are taking a new approach. Instead of labeling gay people as imoral or pathic. People are starting to say until we have a cause or cure for homosexuality. Lets try helping them deal not just with being gay but with how society treats them."

I can now totally admit that I'm a HORRIBLE roommate when it comes to trash. But nowadays it’s just that I don’t care about clutter. Although, back in the day, I just didn’t care about any of it. Here's a note Tyler left taped to my door when we lived together. And let me just say that Tyler was absolutely right and I was absolutely wrong! It may not completely read that way, but you have to realize how much I refused to help around the house for like a month before this letter was written. Tyler and Tina were doing All of the house work and I was doing None, yet I was responsible for at least 1/2 of it, even though there were 3 of us living there. Oh, and the best part about this letter is not how polite and rational it was, but how furious I got about it. Why did I get so mad and why did I think I was right? I guess I'm just a bad person! "David, Please don't use mine nor Tina's Dishes, silverware, pots, etc. again. Also, please put the comics that you got out to read back in their places. Also, try to keep your things in their places, either in your room, or on your shelves. Your room does occupy @ 50% of the apartment while Tina's and my room takes up only 15%. Please try to keep your things in your room. Also, try to throw your trash away and put your dirty dishes in your dirty dish cabinet if you aren't going to wash them that day."

I also found a very similar letter from Aubree, but it's longer and I don't feel like typing all that out. But basically it affirms that I'm a bad roommate.
Here's a random email I sent Tyler on 02/24/97:
"SO,
you got the evil timewasting game Queer (better known as Quake)? well you can GO TO HELL. hey i forgot if you told me if you had diablo (the game not the entity) if you do & if you cum up here inn may, then you can network it with us? Netting games is so much better than playing them normal like. Dont bother watching your back, ive already thrown up on it? Start to practice on the guitar so who but you can play with us. : ) on aol cyber means chatsex.
Hows your faith, God boy? Sin., The Dave

I don't really expect anyone to read this stuff, but going through my life in this box has me kind of reminiscent. Here's another email I sent to Tyler on 02/25/97:
"Dear Stud muffin,
so, you dirty son of daughter. have you got Ricks e-mails? were you still going to make love (more to the point, were you still going to write the history page??? or did you forget???) i hate you. if you could please write me back about this. dont Phunk with me man?

Can you see the year where I had my existential crisis? The grades go down and down. I think I got a 1.5 GPA one semester. And then they start to climb back up...
It's not a perfect transcript by any stretch of the imagination. The final GPA which is like a 3.4 or 3.5--I can't remember--doesn't even begin to tell the story.

PS David, are you going to be here with Rick on Thursday?

I am going grocery shopping tomorrow. If you and Rick want to tell me what you want to eat, I'll pick some stuff up. Otherwise you'll be condemned to my steady diet of Chicken Noodle Soup, Ramen noodles, Potted Meat, Corn Dogs, and burritos. Mmmm, boy!

Huh. My fears haven't changed much from the mid-90s, though I'm not nearly as skeered of lightning as I once was. I'm a little surprised that death didn't make the list. I think it tops it these days.

We don't have any porn here, though Jenn does have her large vibrating egg.

I just wanted to post a message for David and Rick about my plans for tomorrow: I will drive to the Harlingen airport as soon as I get out of class. I think I can make this 2:35, which is a little earlier than I told you. I need to stop by the bank, but then I'll drive directly there. This means I should be at the airport by about 3:30.
I'll have some money, so if you guys want to eat out, we can. My treat. Is there anything else I should do or should know about tomorrow? BTW: The food court in the Harlingen airport is small but there is a bar, which is called the Blue Oasis, I think. It seemed to be jumping when I was there 2 weeks ago. Of course, I'll be driving, so feel free to have a drink if you like.

Oh, to answer your original question, David: We do have digital copies of the original printout of disjunction. In fact, these are in the yahoo briefcase right now. BUT we don't have copies of the corrections we made onto those printouts that Rick made for us. I think there were four of them. The corrections were made by each one of us during our four or five editorial meetings. Now, I gave my corrected copy to someone who was going to enter all this editorial work into the digital file. In fact, all the corrected copies should be in a single set of hands, whose owner should feel horrible about his failure to do his promised task even after almost a decade.
Actually, I don't know who has the corrected copies. But we should try to round them up. Does your copy have corrections in it? If so, then you are either the person who is supposed to be doing this work or one of the reasons he hasn't finished!

Ah ha ha.. yeah. Disjunction. See, I took that from someone, determined to make all the corrections on the digital file. Only, I became really interested in, um, reading it as I went, so I didn't actually make much progress. But, I did make some. Really. No REALLY! I think I even made it to somewhere in the middle. And then Mr. McKenzie got all huffy, insisted that he could finish it, and, you know, took it. So, it should be in Boston right now with Chris..

Yeah, it's here. I have the printouts as well. I have been making changes gradually over the past year, but lo and behold, it was hard to get excited about it when everyone seemed to have moved on.

I believe we will be going to the Harlingen Public Library. Do you have voice mail at your office? If so, PM your office number and we'll confirm our location before you head over. How does that sound?

I won't be going by my office tomorrow. But I do have to stop by the house and feed the cats and turn the AC on for them (and for us when we get back here). So, just leave a message on the machine here at the house and I'll be sure to check it before I head your way.
