celine (Who Drugged Thumper?):
I'm on the threshold of losing it all
You know I used to care so much about winning
I ain't afraid of taking the fall
Or going back to the beginning
But I feel I've already surrendered
Even though my body seems to show a fight
Finding cause for ambition, a quest without vision
I need once again to feel my pride
Show me the answers
Fill in my soul
'Cause I'm a simple man with a simple dream
No motivation, I'm a broken machine
Pump the pressure high, so I don't gain control
Don't let it slip too low, don't let it slip too low
I'm so much in love with life
That I just can't take a part in it
I'm so much at war with time
That I refuse to hang on to the minute
Walk with me on a tightrope
You just can't pass up this view
And you can see my conviction to live in contradiction
The sources of my strange ways were you
Show me the answers
Fill in my soul
I'm a simple man with a simple dream
No sense of balance, I'm a broken machine
Pump the pressure high, so I don't gain control
Don't let it slip too low, don't let it slip
Don't think we need to talk about the future
You wouldsn't want to spend it with me
We'd watch time flow like sand, slipping right through our hands
And live in the name of absurdity
Simple men with simple dreams
I'd love to love you, but I'm a broken machine
Pump the pressure high, so I don't gain control
Don't let it slip too low, don't let it slip too low
Don't let it slip too low, don't let it slip too low
Don't let it slip too low, don't let it slip too low
Broken Machine, by Back Bay Project

SHEIN'S LAW OF COMPUTER PERFORMANCE:
The speed of a computer is measured from the time
at which a question is asked to the time at which

benchmarks are lies.

Hello. I'm Masako. If you need to reach me, please call x5-7468. Or, if you
don't like talking to an answering machine, leave a message at x3-6561. If my
phone is busy, please call x8-6374 and tell whoever answers the phone to drag
me out of my room (it's the lounge phone). Also, I occasionally work at Uyeno
Unyu in Kendall Square, so please also try calling 577-8232 if you're desperate
to reach me. PLEASE DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL ME AT LATE/EARLY HOURS. My
sleeping time is so wierd that the chance of me being awake at 5am is very big.
Thanks.
