The Royal Collection - Welcome to the Royal Collection Online
Double Dare Ya...:P
Well I did it...:Large evil Grin...
Yup got the Tattoo, The first of many ,I'm sure:)
Of course we took the camera, we were going out on the town. Only the second time we have been out in a year. We have just found a baby sitter, she seems nice, young -17, makes me feel ancient, the boys like her so that's good.
We went downtown , to hang out and check out the scene, It's like Mardi Gras all year long down there, lots of weird people and things, Bars, restaurants, tattoo parlors, pool halls, you know the works. We walked around for awhile and then were passing Black Cat and Pa said "lets go check it out" so we did . I looked through tons of flash, and found one that was acceptable and I also had my tattoo pic of the heartagram in my purse, just in case. We asked the guy how much it would be, he named a price , it was ok, Pa said well "Why don't you get it?"( I think he though I might chicken out-Wrong!) I said "OK" the guy said well come back in an Hour and we'll get it on:)
So we had an hour to kill, we walked around some more, and ended up in a Bar called the DIZZY ROOSTER, A retro music playing Yuppie Haven, was freaking hilarious- stupid Yuppie mating rituals- watching them try to dance to "You give love a Bad name-Bon Jovi", clutching their trendy drinks with their fashionable Haircuts, and similar outfits all purchased at the Limited or the Gap , or Black and white...:rolling eyes...G-Man and I were laughing so hard I just about fell off my chair, they were all looking at me like I was from another planet> Frack em...Yuppoids...It was good for a laugh, and I actually had a beer, first in a few years, liquid courage I guess, I was a Tiny bit nervous,like I was getting the piercings...We had fun, at the expense of Others...:snort >freaking yuppies....I despise you and your kind....
Well our time was up so we wandered back to the shop, and got going....For those of you waffling on the subject, yes it does hurt a little WHILE they are doing the work,sort of like the feeling of getting an electric shock, well that is what it felt like to me. Now three days later It is like it was never done, I have weird healing powers (really) and it looks awesome not all messy like some you hear about, just a small itch that 's it. I'm Cool, I kick @ss , and I rock...Oh yeah! (power trip kicking in :) The artist SCOTT, was totally cool, and was playing his fav music during(he was the shop Boss) a band I had not heard for a long time " The English Beat", and he was telling me and Pa , about seeing"the Church" just awhile ago in town playing a local venue...Wow was really nice, and during the last quarter of the operation , they turned on RAMMSTEIN...I was in bliss, one of my fav bands. It was a sublime moment, truly. SCOTT is also a dog owner and lover , like us, and has a Staffordshire Bull Terrier. He did not think that a POODLE tattoo was weird, and thought it was a good idea, he said just come up with a pic. This is the Place where Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thorton, got their tattoos while they were together
Well here goes, step in to the weird that is my life.....

Cool, It would take about 10 mins for Bup to "Dissasemble #5.."
This is the advanced programmable robot that can walk, run, kick, stand on one leg, turn cartwheels, and dance right out of the box (watch performance video).
The mechanical humanoid is controlled by 16 powerful digital servomoters, built specifically for this robot, that allow the robot to perform numerous acrobatic maneuvers previously beyond the capabilities of most commercially available robots.
The points of articulation are so precise that the robot can be commanded to lie down, pick itself back up, turn a flip, do push-ups, and more, at the touch of a button on t he wireless remote control (included).
The unit comes with software programming tools that can be installed on your PC, allowing robotics enthusiasts to program the robot to do additional movements and sequences, or add expandable features as they become available (information provided).

OWLS
For Twilight has been described as owl-light, and going for a quiet walk in the woods at this shimmering time of twilight is an excellent way to develop a sensibility to the Otherworld and the inner soul of Nature. You may feel drawn to a study of esoteric lore or clairvoyancy. Working with the owl as your ally will help you to do this. ...The owl can signal a time of change, of initiation, of new beginnings. It can portend the death of one thing, but also the birth of another, An old Sussex saying is 'When owls whoop at night, expect a fair morrow.' Expect a bright dawn and it will surely come..
Because the owl is sacred to the Goddess in her crone-aspect, one of its many Gaelic names is Cailleach-oidhche (Crone of the Night). The barn owl is Cailleach-oidhche gheal, 'white old woman of the night.' The Cailleach is the goddess of death, and the owl's call was often sensed as an omen that someone would die. It was seen as a bird that calls for the soul, or that catches or takes it away. From Berne in Switzerland there comes a belief that the screech of an owl foretells the birth of a child or the death of a man - pointing to the owl as a bird of the Goddess who is both taker and giver of life.
Knowing of an impending death or birth suggest that the owl is able to foretell the future, and the owl is indeed the totem bird of clairvoyance and astral travel. The veils which surround the normal boundaries of space and time can be pierced, if you take the owl as ally.[...]
In later times, all that was sacred to the Goddess and the 'Secret Faith' was denigrated and labeled as evil by the Church in an attempt to convert people from their traditional ways. We see this process of denigration clearly in the folklore of the owl. Originally a sacred bird embodying wisdom and discernment, it gradually came to be seen as a bird of ill-omen. Farmers would nail their bodies to barn doors or walls; the fern owl was names "Puck" or "Puck-bird" - and old word for the devil; and owls in general were called constables from the dark land." It became a common saying that the owl was a transformation of one of the servants of the ten kings of hell.[...]
The owl is a bird set apart. She stands on the threshold of the Otherworld, reminding us of the ever-present reality of death. But death is the great initiator and as the owl hoots to us from the trees we may come to realize in the depths of our being that our death in reality marks a beginning and not an end.

Blogdogs: William Wegman
William Wegman was born in 1943, a litter of one. He was paper-trained, and then went to grade school, high school and college. He started out as a painter but had trouble getting the hands right, so he did what most painters who couldn't get hands right did, he switched to photography.
After taking pictures of his Mom and his Dad, he ran out of willing subjects and was soon forcing dogs to wear clothes and stand in embarrassing poses in order to practice his trade.
During the culture wars of the late '80s, many dogs attacked Wegman's work as being exploitive, accusations they supported by pointing out that he often named his dogs after French surrealists. It was said that Wegman dogopomorphized his subjects, but by the mid-90s his detracters had been marginalized and he was a main stream popular success, with his work exhibited in the Smithsonian and sold in airport gift shops.
Some critics have noted that over time he worked with younger and younger dogs until his work verged on what has sometimes been referred to as puppy porno. In fact, it has been suggested that Wegman began doing polaroid photos precisely because photo-marts began confiscating his film and turning it over to authorities when they saw the images.
More recently K9 academics have come to understand that Wegman is not, as previously believed, infantilizing dogs, but rather, he has been trying to suggest, in his abstract way, that humans might, if they try, aspire to a higher, dog-like nature.
So to honor the genius of William Wegman, we offer the following portfolio of some of his works. Not only can you experience the brilliance of the artist, but you can actually own a print of one these masterpieces, and help support Blogdogs at the same time, since we get a tiny cut of the action, if you know what I mean.

Of hope as she cries

All fears that haunted you
Your smile
Dark Light
In oblivious garden
The bodies of fire
Writhing to warmth the angel devine
To learn how to die
In peace with her heart
Dark light
Come shine over all stars tonight
And blind
All fears that haunted you
Your smile

Official: Jack the Ripper identified - Law - Times Online
Scotland Yard has taken possession of a policeman's memoirs which names the serial killer
PRIVATE handwritten notes by the man who led the hunt for Jack the Ripper naming the chief suspect were given to Scotland Yard's Black Museum yesterday.
Chief Inspector Donald Swanson kept quiet for years but in retirement, frustrated that the murderer had escaped justice, could not resist scribbling notes in the margin of his boss's memoirs, naming the man that they both believed had become the world's most famous serial killer.
The man he named was Aaron Kosminski, a Polish-Jewish hairdresser living in Whitechapel, East London, who was eventually committed to a lunatic asylum, where he died.
According to Swanson the police were so convinced that Kosminski was the killer of at least five prostitutes in the 1880s that they organised a secret identity parade at a police rest home. The witness was a Jew who was said to have refused to give evidence.
Swanson made his notes in a book called The Lighter Side of My Official Life by Sir Robert Anderson, who was an assistant commissioner, for whom Swanson became staff officer.
Sir Robert said as a "definitely ascertainable fact'''''''''''''''' that the killer was a Polish Jew. He said that the only person who ever had a good view of the killer �unhesitantly identified the suspect the instant he was confronted but refused to give evidence�.
Mr Swanson wrote: �Because the suspect was also a Jew and also because his evidence would convict the suspect and witness would be the means of murderer being hanged � which he did not wish to be left on his mind.�
He said that the suspect had been taken by police to the rest home for the identification and that Kosminski knew he had been identified. He was taken back to his brother’s home in Whitechapel and police kept a secret watch.
Eventually he had to be taken, bound, to a workhouse and then to an asylum where he died “shortly afterwards”. Swanson wrote: “Kosminski was the suspect.”
Yesterday as the Swanson family handed over the book with its margin notes to the Yard’s refurbished Crime Museum, Detective Chief Superintendent Steve Lovelock, who heads detective training and the museum, said that the identification was very interesting.
Mr Lovelock said that the name had been mentioned before and the margin notes were revealed some years ago but he believed that they were significant.
Nevill Swanson, the Victorian detective’s grandson, said; “My grandfather thought he had got his man but never nailed him.”
Yard researches suggested that Kosminski was arrested by police after he threatened his sister with a knife and they were struck by his resemblance to descriptions of the Ripper.
But he was considered too mentally ill to be questioned, He was taken in the care of his brother to a Yard police rest home in Brighton and the identity parade was held there.

RACK OF LAMB WITH GARLIC AND HERBS Recipe at Epicurious.com
Baaa baaaa, do you still hear them Clarice?
Herb-and-bread-crumb coatings are classic on rack of lamb, but leaving out the crumbs lightens the dish (and the juicy chops taste more summery as a result). This recipe is best made with new garlic - garlic that has not been aged. It is covered with a moist membrane rather than papery skin and is often sold with greens attached. If you're lucky enough to find some, substitute 1/4 cup chopped garlic greens for half of the parsley in the herb mixture".
For lamb
2 (8-rib) frenched racks of lamb (each rack 1 1/2 lb), trimmed of all but a thin layer of fat 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
3/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
For herb coating
1/2 head new garlic or 3 large regular garlic cloves, minced
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh rosemary
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Special equipment: an instant-read thermometer
Brown lamb: Heat a dry 12-inch heavy skillet over high heat until hot, at least 2 minutes. Meanwhile, pat lamb dry and rub meat all over with salt and pepper. Add oil to hot skillet, then brown racks, in 2 batches if necessary, on all sides (not ends), about 10 minutes per batch.
Transfer racks to a small (13- by 9-inch) roasting pan.
Coat and roast lamb: Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 350°F.
Stir together garlic, herbs, salt, pepper, and oil. Coat meaty parts of lamb with herb mixture, pressing to help adhere. Roast 15 minutes, then cover lamb loosely with foil and roast until thermometer inserted diagonally into center of meat registers 120°F, 5 to 10 minutes more. Let stand, covered, 10 minutes. (Internal temperature will rise to 125 to 130°F for medium-rare while lamb stands.)
Cut each rack into 4 double chops.
Makes 8 servings.

HIM LYRICS - The Funeral Of Hearts
And an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood
On flowers of evil in bloom
The funeral of hearts
And a plea for mercy
When love is a gun
Separating me from you
She was the sun
Shining upon
The tomb of your hopes and dreams so frail
He was the moon
Painting you
With it's glow so vulnerable and pale
Love's the funeral of hearts
And an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood
On flowers of evil in bloom
The funeral of hearts
And a plea for mercy
When love is a gun
Separating me from you
She was the wind, carrying in
All the troubles and fears you've for years tried to forget
He was the fire, restless and wild
And you were like a moth to that flame
The heretic seal beyond divine
A prayer to a god who's deaf and blind
The last rites for souls on fire
Three little words and a question why
Love's the funeral of hearts
And an ode for cruelty
When angels cry blood
On flowers of evil in bloom
The funeral of heartsAnd a plea for mercy
When love is a gun
Separating me from you

Sun is shining so bright on her
And all her wishes have finally come true
And her heart is weeping.
This happiness is killing her.
She'll be right here in my arms
So in Love

No really a very dear friend of mine,

From Aunt Deena..a FWD
A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn that her father's new young wife had bought the exact same dress! Jennifer asked her to exchange it, but she refused. 'Absolutely not. I look like a million bucks in this dress, and I'm wearing it,' she replied.
Jennifer told her mother who graciously said, 'Never mind sweetheart. I'll get another dress. After all, it's your special day.' A few days later, they went shopping and did find another gorgeous dress.
When they stopped for lunch, Jennifer asked her mother, 'Aren't you going to return the other dress? You really don't have another occasion where You could wear it.'
Her mother just smiled and replied, 'Of course I do, dear. I'm wearing it to the rehearsal dinner the night before the wedding.'
NOW I ASK YOU - IS THERE A WOMAN OUT THERE, ANYWHERE, WHO WOULDN'T ENJOY THIS STORY??? "

HIM LYRICS - Heartache Every Moment
And from lust to dust
In your sweetest torment
I'm lost And no heaven can help us
Ready, willing and able
To lose it all
For a kiss so fatal
And so warm
Oh it's heartache every moment
From the start 'til the end
It's heartache every moment
With you Deeper into our heavenly suffering
Our fragile souls are falling
It's heartache every moment
Baby with you
And we sense the danger
But don't wanna give up
'Cause there's no smile of an angel
Without the wrath of god
Oh it's heartache every moment
From the start 'til the end
It's heartache every moment
With you
Deeper into our heavenly suffering
Our fragile souls are falling
It's heartache every moment
Baby with you
My darling with you
From lashes to ashes
And from lust to dust
In your sweetest torment
I am lost
And we sense the danger
But don't wanna give up
Oh it's heartache every moment
From the start 'til the end
It's heartache every moment
With you Deeper into our heavenly suffering
Our fragile souls are falling
It's heartache every moment with you
That's right
Unexplained Mysteries :: The vampire among us...
He's back! And his bite is still as strong as ever! Even farther back in time, before the late 1980's, the legendary stories of Dracula (both fictionalized vampire--and the biographical accounts of the famous and infamous Noble, Romanian Prince, Vladimir Dracul) were as abundant and terrifying to give people warning-- to guard themselves from attacks of any type back then. Yet, vampire legends, superstitions, and stories today continue to caution against letting any form of vampire exist, or have the opportunities to become resurrected and reani-mated. However, for all of the fans and devotees to the original t.v. show, Dracula: the series, (create by the team of Phil Bedard and Larry Lalonde--who would later also create the show concept for Forever Knight); the legendary vampire, Dracul has been resurrected and reanimated into the shape and form of one unique, multi-billionaire industrialist, Mr. Alexander Lucard (Dracul- spelled backwards). Lucard is the primary star of Dracula: the series.
In addition, the entire series (which consists of 21 episodes) has also been given 'new life' by Platinum Disc Corporation and Crown Media; this 'new life' has taken shape in the physical form as a two-disc collector's edition set of digital video discs (Dvds). This legendary treasure should definitely satiate the appetite of any and all die-hard fan who wishes to find and own a dvd set of the 'family-rated/family friendly' tv show. One caveat to those who normally purchase dvds for 'the bonus extras.' Dracula: the series does not contain any 'bonus' materials. The two disc collection includes simply the entire 21 episodes from the series; albeit in sharp, clear focus; uncut, unedited, commercial-free, and in of it's gloriously rich, deep colors. As an extra incentive for the eternal fans of the tv series, Forever Knight, Dracula: the series should be a def-inite "must have" collectible, as the series is a multi-episodic showcase for Welsh actor, Geraint Wyn Davies (a.k.a. Det. Nicholas Knight). Check out some of the episodes listed: ** The Decline of the Romanian Vampire ** The Vampire Solution ** Black Sheep ** Klaus Encounters of the Interred Kind .... just to name a small few episode titles. What could almost be considered a humorous full circle of casting anomolies, actually becomes evident when viewing the D:ts episode titled "Get a Job." In this episode, guest star, Louise Vallance appears as Art Expert, Julia Heisenberg. This is the same actress who was cast (alongside Dracula star, Geordie Johnson) in the episode of the Forever Knight episode titled "My Boyfriend is a Vampire." (Vallance was cast as the 'sanity challenged' tv show production manager, Charly Hawkes; in this episode, she is also joined by Dracula star, Geordie Johnson, who plays a controversial talk show host named Jerry Tate.) And Davies, (who portrayed Klaus the vampire in Dracula), is cast as the Central star of Forever Knight, Detective Nicholas Knight; who has the job of solving a number of homicide mysteries surround-ing the Jerry Tate show. So, whether one is either a Dracula: the series fan, a Geord-ie Johnson fan, a Geraint Wyn Davies (G.W.) fan, or simply a fan and collector of vampire and vampirological history collect-ible, "Dracula: the series" (the 2-disc collection set), is most definitely a must have item for anyone to have and enjoy It is certainly a unique, visual morsel that one can 'sink-their-teeth' into and enjoy......eternally; and longer.....even. ( This DVD set can be found and purchased at http://www.amazon.com/ (and is quite affordable at beneath a 2-figure cost). "

How to be Goth in 7 easy steps
When it comes down to truly exploring your new found Gothic freedom and 'individuality,' nothing helps more than a new Gothic name. Now is your opportunity to display your inner turmoil to the world and begin a new life of answering the eternal question 'Is that your REAL name?' First decide what facet of your blackened heart you truly want to explore...
1) Your tragic, teary eyed, poetry writing, romantic soul?
2) Your arcane, mysterious, sexual, ancestral vampire past?
3) Your giggly, speed snorting, obnox...ahem...'perky' id?
4) Your scarred, angry, tormented and angst ridden ego?
5) Your carefully cultivated self loathing and destructive nature.
Your main focus should be creativity, so let your imagination run wild. However, be sure to throw in a healthy dose of pretense and creepiness (You're Goth dammit!!).
As an aid, here are some Gothic mainstays...
1) Names from the animal kingdom. The spookier the animal the better! (Bat, Rat, Raven, Cat, Spider, you get the idea.)
2) Names from fairytales and folklore (I think there are enough 'Liliths' in the world and Brother Grimm is already taken, so hands off!)
3) Names from the underworld (There's a great book offering the names and descriptions of many minor and lesser demons called 'Fallen Angels' by Robert Masello. Pick it up!)
4) Names from the bible (Unless you're Hispanic, I'd stay away from Jesus just to avoid confusion.)
5) Names of nasty inflictions or bad habits (Hmmm...how about Melena?)
6) Names from horror movies and/or books (No...Jason or Freddie don't count.)
"7) Names from poetry (For you weepy types...*grrr*)
Feel free to mix and match to taste. After all, Goth is about diversity, creativity and individuality (to a certain predetermined extent at least) right?
STEP TWO: CLAIMING YOUR GOTHIC SELF
Now that your named your Gothly self you will need to pick what kind of Goth you are.... And claim it as your own. This is most easily done by exploring the dark, sinister, self absorbed, angst ridden side of your personality... If you are a hippie, then dig down to the darkness that is the basis of all personalities... Become a Summer of Love Goth - If you are a Geek become a Cyber Goth, if you love the Ren Fair then try Ren Faire Goth, if you think of yourself as a Stevie Nicks clone then become an Etherial Goth. There is an endless list of the type of Goth you can be....Explore your inner darkness and let it shine darkly through!!!
STEP THREE: GothITUDE
While lurking in eerie, shadowy corners, your posture must be theatrical, vibrating with a melancholy that is as tangible as the clove cigarette you are smoking. Hunch lightly forward your delicate shoulders and perch vulture-like as you gaze despondently around the hazy club.
Clenched gracefully in your pale hand with your jewel-laden, tapering fingers, slowly wave your ebony lace fan and keep your inky, kohl-rimmed eyes downcast, gazing gently and demurely. You are bleakly serene, demonstrating a superb maudlin poise.
If your mournful, ivory face, should unexpectedly ripple with a rebellious glimmer of happiness, or even playful enjoyment, lethargically, with a tragic soft sigh, lower your head and shield behind your fan that unacceptable smile. Excuse yourself with a breathy whisper or a mysterious polite phrase and a tearful eye and languidly stroll toward the murky bathroom where you obsessively, with a poetically tragic stance, begin powdering your nose. Take great care to avoid sprinkling your silver nose ring, remember not to powder over your bhindi.
When dancing, think of your dance as a magical conjuring or ceremonial evocation. Whirl, sway, twist and swoop to your own private and tormented rhythm. All movement should be listless, sultry, at times suddenly dipping dramatically to one side or lunging forward to express a sudden stab of inner angst or passion that is coinciding with (or not) a certain place in the music.
Poetically speaking: You must convince people that you are trapped here on this dreary physical plane - forever wandering in search of mysterious, shadowy dimensions. The dark, yet gossamer wings of unremembered memories subtly inspire you, as you endure all the despair of your soul's existence, past and present.
At all times, emote angst, apathy, and despair.
Last, remember that being Gothic is not just a fashion statement, it's a cry for help and is a convincing solution to almost any Fashion Emergency.
Release the batttttts.....
STEP FOUR: MAKE-UP/HAIR
1) Facial hair
Yes you can be Goth too even if you have a tan and copious facial hair. The first thing you need is a razor. If you're a dude with a beard think 'topiary'. Watch the three musketeers -- the one with Michael York. Pleeeeasee check out the guy with the eye patch who boffs the Fay Dunaway character and sculpt some interesting creative facial hair.
If you want to maintain an aura of dark-manly-wolf (tm kallisti), leave your eyebrows to nature. Otherwise, shave them off. Eyebrows are an artform and cannot be contained by the whims of DNA.
All Goths who want to identify with a feminine side, should shave their eyebrows completely off to cleanse the facial palate for true expression.
2) Skin tone -- Spoooky Clown White
Use a powder base at least two shades lighter than your natural skin tone. Kryolan makes a good one. Think artifice. Think theater. All references to a natural daylight appearance should eradicated and spackled. Your lips have no boundaries. Cover their line. Your skin must have a luminous glow which will float disembodied in the candlelight. Creatures of the night unite!
3) Those lips! Those Eyes!
Eyes can wing off the face. Or they can smolder like Valentino. This is where creativity can shine!! All novices must use black. You can't go wrong. Black eye liner is a must. Black powder eye shadow is fabu. Go wild.
Lips? Don't be hindered by the memory of your previous self's lips. With a dark red or black lipstick and a liner you can create new lips. Take the liner, draw the outline of what you think your lips should be as your new Goth self and fill them in with the lipstick and blot.
Please note, the liner does not have to be the same shade as the lipstick but it should be darker.
Welcome the new flesh.
4) Hair - Rat it , dye it, torture it - Edward ScissorHands had perfect Goth Hair....Be sure to buy a can of super hold hairspray and apply it liberally. Or for a more dramatic effect, shave your hair completely off to make room for those fabulous Goth Eyes!!!
STEP FIVE: FASHION
Black is the corner stone of all Gothly styles... Do not be afraid. Find every piece of black clothing and cloth that you have available to you...
Pin everything together... Think flowing, think wispy, think of a corpse raising from the grave.... Think vampires.... What would Lestat be wearing right this second???
The most important feature of any self respecting Goth is .... Accessories and Props: A partial list of the basics follows... use your imagination to create your very own personal style....
Cheap fishnet stockings worn on legs or pulled over head (cut a hole in the crotch and pull over your head, then stick your fingers thru the toes!!!)(if you need to buy these try New York Apparel on upper Haight), any old lace, ribbon, dead roses, dead pets, incense, nail polish, rosaries, crosses or other religious paraphernalia, clove cigarettes, whips, fetish gear, black scarves, tulle, etc., One of your most important props will be: a fan, a book of dark poetry, an antique lacy handkerchief, or anything else that you can use to hide that improper and unsightly smile.
**please - No Tennis Shoes!!!
STEP SIX: MUSIC
Ahhh music - one of the most important items that separates Goths from the rest of humanity.... Check in your CD collection... Look for anything that is maudlin, dark, sad, evil, etherial, angry, angst ridden, pathetic - anything that brings self pitying tears to your eyes or hatred to your heart....anything that allows that inner darkness to come boiling to the surface... Play it over and over and over and over again... Make it part of who you are..... Identify with it..... Incorporate it into your total Goth identity.....
STEP SEVEN: PUBLIC DISPLAYS OF MAUDLIN POETIC APLOMB
Each Gothling-to-Be is required to write and internalize bitter poetic musings. This recitation can be likened to the talent portion of a beauty contest, although there is no crowned winner to be named -- Your deep inner ponderings should reflect accurately your assigned Goth name, your designated Goth type, and the resulting fashion, attitude and makeup adjustments.
"La Belle Dame Sans Merci"
by: John Keats
Ah, what can ail thee, wretched wight,
Alone and palely loitering;
The sedge is wither'd from the lake,
And no birds sing.
Ah, what can ail thee, wretched wight,
So haggard and so woe-begone?
The squirrel's granary is full,
And the harvest's done.
I see a lily on thy brow,
With anguish moist and fever dew;
And on thy cheek a fading rose
Fast withereth too.
I met a lady in the meads
Full beautiful, a faery's child;
Her hair was long, her foot was light,
And her eyes were wild.
I set her on my pacing steed,
And nothing else saw all day long;
For sideways would she lean, and sing
A faery's song.
I made a garland for her head,
And bracelets too, and fragrant zone
;She look'd at me as she did love,
And made sweet moan.
She found me roots of relish sweet,
And honey wild, and manna dew;
And sure in language strange she said,
I love thee true.
She took me to her elfin grot,
And there she gaz'd and sighed deep,
And there I shut her wild sad eyes--
So kiss'd to sleep.
And there we slumber'd on the moss,
And there I dream'd, ah woe betide,
The latest dream I ever dream'd
On the cold hill side.
I saw pale kings, and princes too,
Pale warriors, death-pale were they all;
Who cry'd--"La belle Dame sans merci
Hath thee in thrall!"
I saw their starv'd lips in the gloam
With horrid warning gaped wide,
And I awoke, and found me here
On the cold hill side.
And this is why I sojourn here
Alone and palely loitering,
Though the sedge is wither'd from the lake,
And no birds sing.

You might be a redneck goth if...

your wife-beater shirt is black.
your coon dogs are named Bela and Lestat.
you have a pair of black latex overalls, with no crotch.
you drink the blood of animals at night, and then sodomize them.
you have hickeys with fang marks.
you check the blood type of your victim with a dipstick.
you don't have two front teeth, but you do have fangs.
your banjo is made of human flesh and bone.
your blood comes in a box
you hold late night walks and poetry readings, in a junkyard.
you think Johnny Cash has 'pretty lips'
your coffin is lined with a velvet confederate flag
your hearse's horn plays the first few notes of Dixie, in D minor.
your hearse has Playboy mudflaps.
you have a Moon tan line when wearing a short sleeve shirt.
your coffin liner is black and grey plaid.
your hearse is jacked up and sports dear lights.
you smoke cloves in a corncob pipe.
you dye your sheep black.
you have elbow length black latex gloves, covered in pig shit.
you midwived the cow your leather boots came from.
your oh-so-spooky homepage is at www.y'all.com.
that's engine grease on your face, not makeup.
your bull's nose is pierced 6 times.
even your teeth are black.
your hearse has its doors welded shut.
you have a black velvet Elvis painting, postmortem.
your child's first words were 'Ah! The light!'.
your hearse has a trailer hitch.

HIM LYRICS - Wings Of A Butterfly
Heaven ablaze in our eyes
We're standing still in time
The blood on our hands is the wine
We offer as sacrifice
[Chorus]
Come on, and show them your love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul, my love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul
This endless mercy mile
We're crawling side by side
With hell freezing over in our eyes
Gods kneel before our crime
[Chorus]
Come on lets show, them your love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul, my love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
Don't let go
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
For your soul
[Chorus]
Come on, and show them your love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul, my love
Rip out the wings of a butterfly
For your soul
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly)
Don't let go
(Rip out the wings of a butterfly) [x2]
For your soul"
HIM LYRICS - Join Me In Death
My New Fav Song.....*)
Baby join me in death
Baby join me in death
Baby join me in death
We are so young
our lives have just begun
but already we're considering
escape from this world
and we've waited for so long
for this moment to come
we're so anxious to be together
together in death
Won't you die tonight for love
Baby join me in death
Won't you die
Baby join me in death
Won't you die tonight for love
Baby join me in death
This world is a cruel place
and we're here only to lose
so before life tears us apart let
death bless me with you
Won't you die tonight for love
Baby join me in death
Won't you die
Baby join me in death
Won't you die tonight for love
Baby join me in death
this life ain't worth living
this life ain't worth living
this life ain't worth living
this life ain't worth living
Won't you die tonight for love
Baby join me in death
Won't you die
Baby join me in death
Won't you die tonight for love
Baby join me in death
Baby join me in death"
