To the lovely fellow in the chicken suit who strolls up and down Young Street: We love you and your cheery waving, and when you take off the chicken head you have a lovely smile. —xox the wavers

Rip the pants and rip the shirt, ruff sex make it hurt

In the garden all in the dirt

—Hot pants n hard lickur

Pizza,beer and dancing under the moonlight sounds great. —Jitterbug

Too often people judge others on their outward appearance or on a small glimpse of their personality. Or what we perceive to be their personality. That's dumb because you could miss out on some really interesting, brave, solid people. What is even worse is if out of your own ignorance you put that person down and you try to make them feel bad simply for being unafraid to be themselves. Thats what I did to you but you got in touch with me and allowed me to apologize for my arrogance and you handled it with such grace that all I could do was feel like a big loser. Though that is my own fault because I acted like a real jerk. Though you did teach me a valuable lesson and that is not to judge somebody because they dress or act a certain way or because they believe certain things and are unafraid to speak up about them. We should all be more like that actually and we should all try and keep an open mind to what others have to say. And if a woman doesn't shave her arm pits then who cares? They are human beings and the fact that people consider it a statement not to shave is what makes that action into a statement. Thank you for being awesome. I will try harder next time not to shit all over someone I don't know because I might be having a lousy day. There's enough negativity in the world and I want to be more like you and spread the opposite. —Drinking Sangria In The Park

I really meant what I told him to say. Because of you I can't wait to work everyday. I wish I had a chance to explain everything stupid I do but I would probably blow it again because I am not as cool as you. I am so sorry I can't say what I really want to ever. You are the bravest person and I think you're pretty clever. "Your eyes are so pretty and the clothes you wear they are so fine." For you, anyday I would walk the line. When you touched my arm and called me Hun it was the highlight of my year. I wanted to walk home with you but I have been living my life in fear. Every song was supposed to explain the way I felt. But even music can't convey the way you make me melt. I know this all sounds corny but that's the way I feel. Sometimes I can't tell the difference between what's fantasy and real. Maybe I am crazy but I don't really care. Cause I'd be crazy not tell you that this feeling is hard to bear. I know it's probably too late but I thought I would give it one last try. You can go your own way and l will cry, cry, cry. —Sad pathetic loser who only ever wanted you.

Hi, I'm the person that wrote the nasty bitch that got published in the coast about you. Your profile really annoyed me but it was very wrong of me to write that note to you and I am sincerely sorry. I had forgotten all about you and the bitch that I had written earlier in the week, or on the weekend, until I saw it in print. I can be a real asshole sometimes but I had no right to single out an individual like that and I feel terrible. I'm not a bad person but that bitch was terrible and I am ashamed of it. I do hope that your feelings were not injured because of the things I said, it takes a lot of courage to have strong convictions of any kind these days. It should be commended, not condemned and I was wrong to say what I said. —Not so nice guy

I had a shitty day after someone wrote a Love The Way We Bitch about me. I was eating ice cream on a friend's front step and you rode by and winked very dramatically at me. That was great. I was instantly shocked and brought back to a time where winking reminded me of cartoons and not of emoticons. I'm not even sure how you saw me because it was dark but you seemed kinda cool for a night time, winking rider. I mean, your shadowy face looked nice too. Thanks I guess. —Winking makes me wet.

What do you say you ,me a pizza,beer and dancing under the moonlight?I liked what I saw and would like to see more of you. —Jailhouse rock

To the guy in the nurses uniform on the 20 who looks like a combo of James Vanderbeek/ Mr. Incredible with a bad ass look to him...thank you. — Lafayette
