ABC - Da Remix!
Of the many great memories I have from college, some of the most hilarious of them all were had while living at 805 S. Fifth Street. With five girls living on the ground floor with three boys upstairs, there was rarely a dull moment. Much of what we did was recorded by photo and much of what we said was recorded by a quote list we kept on the fridge. Last night, while going through some stuff at my house, I found our long lost quote list from that year. I think I took it with intention of typing it out for everyone but I eventually misplaced it and forgot about it. The list, however, has been providing me with much humor throughout my day. Perhaps you had to be there, or perhaps you need to know the people involved. Regardless, I have been sitting here snickering at my desk and want to share the joy. Here are a few of the greatest gems..... (The linked photos are newer than when we lived together, which is a shame because there are many quality photos from the year as well, just none of them digital.)
"'Pull back my neck skin.' Can you put that on the quote list, please?" Dom repeating Bercos' odd statement.
"I want to meet that person! I want to meet the first guy who said, 'Look at those dangly things! Let's squeeze them and drink whatever comes out!'" Beckner on the discovery of cow's milk.
"I just know you wouldn't like it... I mean, there's rules. Like... you can't be naked with anyone...." Dom on why Bercos wouldn't like working at Kanakuk."Ali, you look like a lion right now" - Steve"I think she was offended" - Frick on why Ali stormed off"OK, a Lioness!!" - Steve yelling to Ali"There's no such thing as a female lion!!" - Ali yelling from the other room"How do lions make more lions then?" - Bercos"You know, there really ARE female lions." - Steve"Yeah... they're called TIGERS!!" - Ali
"Whenever my mom went to get an ultrasound with my brother, I wanted to be her. I wanted that jelly all over me... It was just so blue... and slippery.... and that sound it made... so cool..." Laura
"Ooh... trippy. I may just need to smoke a joint to process all this. You know. Settle myself down. It's too much to handle." - Frick after a cool story from BJ. (neither of whom have ever actually touched the stuff by the way...)
"Why can't we all just get along?" - Jeff"Because we're not black..." Alan
"OK, Joe. Try to imagine 14 Jr. High School girls around you now..." - Bercos referring to the description of 'Light as a feather, stiff as a board'
"um... I'm actually giong to try NOT to imagine that..." -Joe Hanline
"I don't know what sebum means and I feel uncomfortable when you use that word." - Jeff
"Now that we're all here, does anyone have Wang?" - BJ referring to the professor"Could you please be more specific?" - Mike
Now... if only we could find the video from the CCF Coffeehouse where we were the cast from Waiting for Guffman....

Hee hee, ha ha! LOVE the one with Ali and the "tigers" although I wish the post-script line of "Wait, are those the ones with stripes?" would have been included;) As for myself, I'm not real sure about that neckskin business, and what's with Dom's comment about me and Kanakuk? Makes me sound like a woman of true integrity:) The one where Kelly asks about Febreeze is great-I can still remember the helpless look on her face as she looked around the room like, "OK, do I have any roommates that AREN'T going to make me puke with their response?" Ahhhhh...SUCH good times my love! Thanks for posting a few and please send out some more! I love it!
PS- LOVE that you linked a photo for sebum, and I love the choice for Waiting for Guffman, you know, the less is more technique;)
BJ...this is hilarious. Makes me miss my college buddies and our quote boards!
If the whole teaching thing doesn't work out for me, I'm gonna work at the DQ like Libby Mae. :)

that's awesome. i hope you do type it, and i hope i get a copy. those were really fun times. let's try an relive that. does feb. sound good? oh, i think my pizza's done.
sweeeeet. i forgot all about that stuff. pretty hot. will be looking forward to the guffman video if it can be posted ever.
I confused...the picture is 5th street girls 2002, the quotes are 5th street 2003. What?!?
Did we just rip a hole in the time-space continum?
I'm glad I'm not the only one who has yet to type up the Official Quote list.
Thanks for a sampling - excellent quotes, everyone! Especially Ali's...
