rlcarr (Rich Carreiro):
Now is the solstice of the year.
Winter is the glad song that you hear.
Seven maids move in seven time.
Have the lads up ready in a line.
Ring out those bells
Ring out, ring solstice bells
Ring, solstice bells.
Join together 'neath the mistletoe.
By the holy oak where-on it grows.
Seven druids dance in seven time.
Sing the song the bells call, loudly chiming.
Ring out those bells
Ring out, ring solstice bells
Ring, solstice bells.
Praise be to the distant sister Sun.
Joyful as the silver planets run.
Seven maids move in seven time.
Sing the song the bells call, loudly chiming.
"Ring Out, Solstice Bells"
Jethro Tull

sgw (stephen g. wadlow):
On the 12th day of the Eurocentrically imposed midwinter festival, my
potential-acquaintance-rape-survivor gave to me,
TWELVE males reclaiming their inner warrior through ritual drumming.
ELEVEN pipers piping (plus the 18-member pit orchestra made up of
members in good standing of the Musicians Equity Union as called for in
their union contract even though they will not be asked to play a
note...)
TEN melanin-deprived testosterone-poisoned scions of the patriarchal
ruling class system leaping,
NINE persons engaged in rhythmic self-expression,
EIGHT economically disadvantaged female persons stealing milk-products
from enslaved Bovine-Americans,
SEVEN endangered swans swimming on federally protected wetlands,
SIX enslaved fowl-Americans producing stolen nonhuman animal products,
FIVE golden symbols of culturally sanctioned enforced domestic
incarceration,
(NOTE: after member of the Animal Liberation Front threatened to throw
red paint at my computer, the calling birds, French hens and partridge
have been reintroduced to their native habitat. To avoid further
animal-American enslavement, the remaining gift package has been
revised.)
FOUR hours of recorded whale songs,
THREE deconstructionist poets,
TWO Sierra Club calendars printed on recycled processed tree carcasses
and a Spotted Owl activist chained to an old-growth pear tree.

solo26 (Keith M Swartz):
You know it's a bad sign when you're changing your plan information to
reflect the right address four months after you moved ... and nobody ever
noticed. This week, I'm living here:
505 Shell Parkway, #1310
Redwood Shores CA 94065
Home: 415-594-9347
(Acronym is too crude to put here. :-)
Work: 415-506-5410 (same)
Fax: 415-506-7805 (yeah, right -- who fingers, but sends FAXes?)
E-mail: here (forwards to netcom account), or kswartz@us.oracle.com
(a little slower, but quicker response time during the day)
At some point, some day, I may return here, but for now, the California sun
will have to be my advisor through the journey of the after-collegiate life.
Are all your pets named Eric?

therese (Therese):
Our written history is a catalogue of crime
The sordid and the powerful, the architects of time
The mother of invention, the oppression of the mild
The constant fear of scarcity, aggression as it's child
