1. There is always hope
Without hope there is nothing.

Hope for whatever it is that you need. Love, money, Bush to be sentenced to be sodomized by HUssein for War crimes.. whatever.

2. there's always hope . . .
Edited on Fri Mar-05-04 04:05 AM by OneBlueSky
because, in the end, good will always triumph over evil . . . if you don't believe that, there's not much popint in going on, is there? . . . keep the faith, work hard, and we'll be okay . . . :)

on edit: I recall a reporter once asking Pete Seeger "Are you optiistic about the future?" Pete's answer: "No . . . but I'm hopeful." . . .

7. *infects youngred with the brainworms*
Now you have the braaaainworms!

Now you must say things like "Spoooooky" and Dooooom! You must also sing the doom song. You must also love the new Quizno's ad campaign.

You must also like the moon.

12. WE LIKE THA MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON
CAUSE IT IS CLOSE TO US
WE LIKE THE MOOOOOON
BUT NOT AS MUCH AS A SPOOOOOON
COZ THATS MORE USE FOR EATING SOUP
UNLESS IT HAS GOT MANY VEGETABLES
AND A FORK ISN'T VERY USEFUL FOR THAT
AMD THEN YOU MIGHT BE BETTER OFF WITH A
CHOP-STICK
UNLIKE THE MOON
IT IS UP IN THE SKY
IT IS UP THERE VERY HIGH
BUT NOT AS MUCH AS MAYBE DIRIGIBLES OR ZEPPLINS OR LIGHTBULBS
OR MAYBE CLOUDS
AND PUFFINS ALSO
I THINK MAYBE THEY GO QUITE HIGH TOO
EVERYONE LIKE THE MOON BECAUSE IT LIGHT UP THE SKY AT NIGHT
AND IT LOVELY
AND IT MAKE THE TIDE GO LIKE
BUT NOT AS MUCH AS CHEESE
WE LIKE CHEESE
WE REALLY LIKE IT
AND WE LIKE KELP
AND WE LIKE MOOSE
AND WE LIKE DEER
AND WE LIKE MARMOTS
AND WE LIKE ALL THE FLUFFY AN-NI-MALS
WE LIKE THA MOON

16. There's always hope
Hope is a reflex, like the one that makes us pull our hands away from a hot stove, and so hope keeps us alive. The question is, is there any reason to hope? Without being specific to any issue, and in the long run, no.
