Hello there and Welcome to DGN! :D

Hey there! Welcome to DGN!

Happy Birthday Love!!

:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: I saw them last time, too, and didn't think they were coming back. What a treat! Don't think we will be able to make it to the Chicago show due to job situation, but may be able to swing the Toronto gig. I'll talk to the Nightgaunt later to see if we can squeeze this in. Thank you for the info!

"Yaaaaaay!" indeed DJ Nocker! Holy cow! Those are great prices! I've got a spot on the back of my neck that will need work soon for a cover-up so I know where I'm going! Thanks LoTek!!

Happy Birthday Riku!!! Big Hugs!!

Happy Birthday!! We're getting ready right now to come down to CC! See ya there!

Wow!! Fantastic work! Hats off to you both! When I finally decide what I want to do next, I'll definitely swing by your shop! Thank you for the discount!!

Sssssssexy!! I'm telling ya, DEAC would be so much fun!! Great shots!

That's right!! That's Riku's birthday too!! Woot!!! Unfortunate change of plans for us :( We're going to try to make it to the club, but we definitely won't be going to Ren Fest this Saturday because we spent all of our allotted monies for the fest yesterday. This was complicated by the fact that we also went to the Gouge Festival, which if you're on my FaceBook, you know I'm talking about Arts, Beats, and Eats, lol. Sorry we're going to miss the day piece of your b-day, but we'll try our damnedest to catch the night festivities!!

Wow! Could you please keep the rest of us updated on what this is? I'd like to know in case we get any creepy "J.D" letters, too. I got a creepy letter before placed on my car at my old apartment complex from someone telling me I was pretty, and to call them. I didn't turn it into the police because the Warren Police Dept. didn't exactly have my faith that they would do anything about it, and I actually didn't want to make things worse. I kept it in a plastic bag in a secret place, and told my now husband about it just in case anything happened to me. Thank goodness nothing happened, and I got the hell out of there!

Wow, that sounds intense. So glad he's getting positive and hopeful results! Positive and healing energy to your dad, you, and your family in getting through this.

Heya! Welcome to DGN! Sorry your last post disappeared! Weird!

Hello there!! Welcome to DGN! You seem to have lots of interesting things going on You'll fit right in!! lol When will you be in the area? I ask as there are a few things going on right now, and coming up that may be of interest.....Renaissance Festival, local art/craft fairs, Theatre Bizarre

Oh my gosh! I didn't even notice that the date wasn't there! Good eye!! It is indeed Saturday Sept. 11th, right Jessika?

OMG! You read my mind in getting Faith and the Muse and Servitor Sanctum together! If they haven't already met, I have this strange feeling that the need to. D:Konstruct kicks ass, so I would love to see you guys again, too! Having all of the above bands together would be an epic show for me!! Love this idea, too!! And Evil Fish~TOTALLY agree with you!!!

lol I know meat on a stick is not uncommon, but we are the kings of the "all-in-one." I'm surprised there wasn't some syrup, and milk in there, too! Nightgaunt and I are on opposite sides with this one....... I say "why?" and he says "why not?" lol Things like the biggest ball of wax, rubber bands, shrink wrap, the biggest frying pan, etc. are all pointless to me. You can't use them, and you look at them for a second, and say "hmmmm. That's big. Okay, now what?" Nightgaunt enjoys the spirit of what it takes to actually create the "biggest whatever." I see what he's saying, I just don't feel the same

Yay! Welcome to DGN!!

This is scary. Shit like this brings me to tears. How can something be a symbol of love (Jesus~i.e. The Prince of Peace) that you go to war for? What kills me is that these kids are not even being given the chance to think for themselves yet. They have no choice. They're getting the poop scared out of them, and being told that they are NOTHING if they do not follow Jesus. You know how some people say we should put all the violent criminals on an island to have them fend for themselves? Well, I'm thinking the same thing right now for crazy, radical fundamentalists from all avenues. I'd like to see how they would all get along being trapped together with no where else to go

Whooo-hooo!! I say we make this a sort of (notice I'm not saying 'offical' ;P ) DGNer day at Ren Fest, too, to help Jessika celebrate her birthday!! Nightgaunt and I are definitely going Come on fellow darklings!! Lets make this a big one!! ^*^ ^*^ ^*^ ^*^ ^*^ ^*^ ^*^

Wow! Thanks Rev! This video pretty much sums it up for me, too. Chernobyl brought up a great topic regarding terrorism in another thread which I now carry to this one. My concern is that the cultural center will be plagued with trouble from those of the opposition who are willing to turn it into a physical battle. I would be surprised if the Center hasn't received any death threats, and I know there have been groups picketing. All of this is par for the course, but what happens if it goes farther? What happens if violence at the Center occurs, or if some radical tries to bomb it? Do we all just say, "well you should have known? You shouldn't have build your center there?" Would that not mean we were supporting terror tactics? Would the painful irony of the situation be lost, or would we all get it? Changing the world means facing situations like this with an open mind, and an open heart. I, for one, don't want to be ruled by fear, ignorance, or hate. I understand some points of the opposition, such as distance, but its all about letting go of the hatred and fear to get to a place of healing. Healing is not going to happen by turning ones back, and carrying around anger. If the center is not built there, then where? Far enough away where people won't know about it, or won't even go to? Part of me understands the distance argument, but then the other part says its being built right where it needs to be. Its close enough where people who visit ground zero can visit the cultural center, too, to get a better understanding of the Muslim community, instead of being afraid all of the time. http://www.cordobainitiative.org/

I don't see it as terrorism either. They both were pushed to their breaking point, and wigged out, trying to take as many people as they could with them. They did not intend to survive the event. The fact that it was a one time event also puts it in the "no" category for me. I see what you are saying about them possibly having a skewed perspective on some sort of Goth ideology, but as they were not part of a group that professed a message, or a cause to change things, I wouldn't put this in the same category as terrorism. Lets say people left them alone, and they never got picked on. Would they have still arrived at the point of wanting to kill a bunch of people? I personally don't think so. For me, this also supports it being an act of revenge versus terrorism. Great debate Chernobyl!

Happy Birthday!!

Happy Birthday!!

"Jes El Guapo!" lol
