Any bold has been done so by me and any [italics] in brackets has been added by me, not the original authors. Skatingfan For first time visitors WELCOME. This is 100% fan fiction. Fan fictioners agree to start a new chapter whenever the thread grows to 80 messages long. We also agree to never discuss this fan fiction material outside of Fan Fiction Land, i.e. we do not post any of this in rssif, FSW, or other threads in this MK forum etc. [Or the PK Forum] Fan fictioners are in the process of producing a play on MK and PK - Paul Kariya the captain of Mighty Ducks. The genius writer is Mano, contributing writers are Kooky, Yingshan (who is also the set designer), Wonder, A-Chan, and Littlepebbles. Chemy is the photographer. Magenta is the ultimate matchmaker, and the rest are managers of this co. I come here just to chill out. Sometimes we refer to MK as 6.0 b/c of the unprecedented # of perfect 6.0s she earned, and PK as #9, he wears #9. Yingshan To New Comers: Welcome to our fantasyland! The purpose of this place is for us to have some fun with our favorite skater: Michelle Kwan. We weave fictional accounts and speculations into very skimpy facts. So you'll be in serious trouble if you take what we say here seriously. And everything we say here are for your and our eyes only. None of this should be repeated elsewhere on the USNET, e.g. RSSIF, FSW.... [Or the PK Forum!!!!!] We're creating a romance novel/movie script. It's temporarily named "Ice to Ice" (I like "Icy Affairs" better). The leads are Michelle Kwan ("6.0") and Mighty Ducks captain Paul Kariya (#9). No, we don't know whether there's anything going on between them. We pick them to write because we think they make a perfect couple. [And not only because they're both Asian, or Asian and 1/2 Asian!] The main screen writer is Mano. I'm the producer/editor. My partner in production is Magenta. Chemy is our photographer. Wonder is my co-editor. Skatingfan is our sound whiz. Blizzard is our art director. Kooky and annabelle are on our contributing writing team. Littlepebbles is our director. Welcome to stay and watch our creative process. But please obey our confidentiality rule. We don't want our brilliant ideas being pirated. One More Criteria..... for anyone who wants to read here: YOU NEED A SENSE OF HUMOR! Mano Do not adjust your monitors, you have just entered...the Boyfriends Fan Fiction Zone (AKA BFFF) If you are feeling lightheaded, dizzy, and see Michael Jordan back with the Chicago BULLs (pun intended), you must STOP, click the "Back button" and seek medical attention quickly. If you happen to have a good sense of humor and realize that this is truly 100 % PURE FAN FICTION, then welcome to our humble abode.

However, we do offer BFFF Life Insurance. Ask one of our agents for more info. Without further ado...(drum roll) May I present the stars of the show... Paul Kariya and Michelle Kwan (Standing Ovation) BOTH REAL <img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/sikids.gif> <img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/realmkpk.jpg> ABSolute Role Models!!! <img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/abs.jpg> As the photosplicer responsible for the above pics, Chemy, would say "You are now in BFFF channel" The above disclaimer was paid for by the Friends of Michelle & Paul (AKA FOMP) a non-profit (and I mean non as in non-existent, right Yingshan?) organization. =========================== This is LP here: Not that PK fans aren't welcome, they are as long as they don't show up trolling, send threatening e-mails, or go running back to the PK forum bashing us and Michelle. Cause unfortunately all that stuff has happened. Hope everyone enjoys our antics and don't be scared of Yingshan, she only bites on Tuesdays. :oÞ

Thanks for starting BFFF23 and counting. Anywho, apologies all for the delay of Ice Age. I know, I know, when are they going to meet. It's getting there, but I have to follow up on the baddies once in a while.

[ML]

To say Hi :)

[eilaram]

Because of you all I had a sort of epihany and I thought I would share it with you. Today school was cancelled and I used my free time to go back and read all the old threads in here that I missed. Tonight as I was watching world pros, as usual I was extremely annoyed when Phillippe took off his shirt. I could never really put my finger on why it annoyed me so much. But tonight when I saw it, all I could think of was that the required elements picture and how that did not annoy me. Then it hit me. If you're going to take off your shirt and prance around, have something worth showing. Now I know that it annoys me because he takes off his shirt basically saying "look at me I'm so wonderful" but he has nothing worth seeing, which just translates into annoying arrogance.

[mano]

I hear ya loud and clear. Everytime I see Phillippe strip, I go, Oy, where's the beef, where's the six pack? Would you believe this same guy played Captain Li Shang in MK's Mulan special. PK would have been perfect for the part...he already is a Captain, he's got the body, and the facial features that would do the cartoon proud. In my version of Mulan, I'd be happy with PK shirtless and MK can just do all the skating...the ending scene by the bridge can be a real kiss too, hehehehe. Where's the director Yingshan, she'd do this right. Next item up for bid. It's so HAAARD to be a DIE Hard Fan of the Mighty Ducks when they crash and burn against the worst the NHL has to offer. The whole time they were playing against the Islanders on Wednesday, I was shouting at the TV, skate faster, be more aggressive and SHOOT the Puck, shoot the puck!!! But do they listen, NOOOOO!!! But as a die hard, I stick with them through the good days the tons of bad days. Lastly, visited some Yahoo Kariya Club sites and found that most of the female members there can be pretty nasty when it came to a possible Kariya/Kwan match-up. No, I didn't say anything, their comments were due to the MK/PK/TS fanfair pic that the Mighty Ducks Site featured and the SI for Kids one too. I think it stems from jealousy in that there is a better chance of MK/PK actually happening whereas their (the female PK fans) chances with PK are zero to none (JMHO, mind you). Also, Teemu's Yahoo fan club is hilarious 'cause Teemu actually writes a journal every so often AND answers questions some of his fan ask on the messageboard. One fan's handle was "TEEMU IS THE GOD OF MY WORLD", heehee, and I thought us MK fans were bad. I was literally floored though 'cause I didn't think athletes would go out of their way to read and answer questions in a messageboard. Hat's off to Teemu. Here's the link to his fan club if anyone is interested: <A HREF=http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/teemuselanneclub >http://clubs.yahoo.com/clubs/teemuselanneclub </A> BTW, in one of his journals, Teemu was talking about the beginning of the season and how PK and his other teammates were doing. Here's an excerpt: Paul Kariya still has a bit of a back problem, and Kevin Haller is still slow and knocked up ROTFLMAO, that gave me a PREGNANT pause (pun intended) I mean, since when do men get PREGNANT, aheeheehee!!! BTW, PK and TS were also guests at Monday Night Live last September. They were practicing at Disney ICE. Hmmnnn...PK at MNL, then MK at MNL in December...coikydink?

[eilaram]

Just curious. How did a bunch of hockey fans find the MKF, much less the fan fiction area?

[chemy]

<img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/tgquote.gif> Apologies to Yahoo Chat, DianneO who posted the quote and Timothy Goebel :-) As per skatingfan, the duo's names and signatures <img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/mkpksign.jpg> <img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/mkpkhanji.jpg> Thanks Littlepebbles. Thanks ML. Mano, if you ever need help defending MK from those rabid female PK fans, I volunteer Yingshan... :-)

[mano]

that's for sure. Part of the blood contract we signed as BFFFers was never to post any MK/PK anything outside Fan Fiction borders. From visiting the Yahoo clubs and other PK message boards, I found that they do their own speculating regarding PK and anybody. MK is the target this time 'cause of a couple of factors. The Duck fans know MK was at the Duck fanfair last year and I found two PK websites that mentioned that PK and MK were hitting on each other. Then, MK shows up at a couple of Duck games last year. The Mighty Ducks site also featured a pic of MK, PK, and TS on Gallery 18, #81's pic out of 101 Millenium pics which was posted on Dec 25, 1999, I think. Most recently, PK was on SI for Kids, right next to MK. All these things they put together without our help. They talk about everything in those clubs, even stuff like if PK favors boxers, briefs, or neither, aheeheehee... Anywho, I have seen on two occasions that MKF link was posted by somebody I don't know (NOT ME, HONEST). One time back, a poster by the name of Jade I think started bashing us here even though we explained it's fiction. She then posted as "disgusted hockey fan" on PK forum and posted MKF/BFFF link. Those who took a look found the whole thing hilarious and know it's fiction. H*ck, they are guilty of wanting PK for themselves after all so that's equal to fiction, heehee. Anywho, hope that answers your question Eilaram. Chemy, LOL at your TG editing.

[skatingfan]

This is so slow here, and everywhere. I miss you. BTW, where is Yingshan. 2 things I want to ask you guys, I know it is not fan fiction matter, and I know it is about 2 other boards. But I think since we beefers have signed blood contract, so I think it is safest to post my curiosity here. 1. for those of you who know rssif well, what happened to Ch*ck. I have not seen his/her post there for a long time. Not that I miss him/her. But s/he used to post ridiculously long and pages after pages of stuff. Remember when usoc posted a Michelle ad in time mag, s/he rant about that it should be another skater instead of MK? Now the second one is more important. How credible is E*ta, when it comes to things about MK. I know s/he is a die hard fan of an ice dancer. I just surfed into fs universe and found a thread "concerned" about our angel. E*ta posted something that I can not even imagine is possible. Hope you guys can help. Thanks.

[littlepebbles1]

Not much on the BFFF front (you can still join the BFFF mailing list!) but to answer Skatingfan's questions: 1) The last I saw of the person in question on rssif was when (s)he was trying to say that the USFSA renegotiating Michelle's pro-am contract was = to another skater who didn't honor his/her contract. Morry responded and told the person that not only did the USFSA come to Michelle about the renegotiation, not the other way around, but that they had done the exact same thing with Todd Eldredge and the other skaters who had USFSA contracts. They probably would have renegotiated the other skater's contract if (s)he had honored it. Maybe the person in question was so mad at that piece of news that he left and decided not to come back. 2) Regarding the other person in question, I took a very rare trip to FSU to see what (s)he had written. Now if this person came up to me and said that 2+2=4, I probably would have a hard time believing him/her. That is how credible (s)he is to me. Now not to say that this person is a liar, but let's look at the facts: a) This person also said that last year at Worlds, Michelle's father was beating her and burning her with his cigarette backstage. Let's just say that this person and/or his/her friends were the only people to notice this. b) From what I have read, Michelle has been trying to get her father to stop committing this alleged act for years and years, even charging him $10 every time she caught him. (He said he owes her like $40,000 now.) Not why would Michelle try to get her father to stop doing something and then turn around and do it herself? I doubt she is that hypocritical. c) Now even though she didn't win GPF, she skated way too well that if she was doing this thing, she probably would have been all out of breath and coughing and the end of her program(s). There aren't too many people with that much stamina that do this thing. d) Has Michelle come down with bronchitis lately? I know 4 different people that do this thing and get bronchitis every winter. Now I know Michelle is in So. Cal. but she will be in Cleveland, Ohio in less than a week, and I assume it is cold there. e) This is the first and only time I have ever heard of Michelle doing this thing. Not only that, but the accuser is well known not to like Michelle from the last time I saw him/her and I doubt (s)he has changed all that much. If anyone else saw, it would probably be all over the FS boards, probably even the sports pages. But like I said, I'm not calling this person a liar, (s)he just doesn't have much credibility with me. That's just what I think. Originally posted 2/2/00 11:13:59 am

LOl we have to talk like this. I think rssif is definitely much more peaceful, but a bit not as entertaining since that person has left. I know everyone would jump all over him/her, and s/he will never let go, there were quite a lot of exchange. Actually the last time I saw his/her post was when his/her idol debut a program that used the U.s. flag as part of the design, so there were over 30 messages on flag ettiquette. For person #2, i remember last year reading in fswurld someone posted that, just forgot the name, and at the time I remember head angel gave this person a warning about libel. I always thought E*ta was a die hard fan of an ice dancer, and had always been dissing another dancer. WOW... thanks, that is all the excitement for me for now. Mano, we are eagerly waiting for the Valentine's day story, how crispy are you nowadays. yingshan where are you.

Fictionally set a few days before Paul and the Mighty Ducks set off on a long roadtrip out east beginning on Jan 29, 2000. *** Michelle was quietly studying on her bed in her dorm. She was just reading over a few chapters of one of her textbooks when her roommate came in and opened the TV. She didn’t mind the distraction too much because her book almost put her to sleep anyway. Her roommate set the channel to ESPN2. NHL CoolShots was on. “Hey Michelle, CoolShots is on, Paul might be in there,” her roommate said. Michelle looked up and said, “it’s probably a repeat,” and went back to her studying. A few minutes later, she heard Paul’s name being mentioned but thought nothing of it, she can think of Paul all she wants after she studies. Then her roommate suddenly said, “Whoa, your man is being interviewed by a blond bombshell that is sitting a bit too close to him. He seems to favor blonds doesn’t he, or this particular one. If I recall correctly, that’s the third time she got the pleasure to interview him. Maybe she’s got designs on him, does she know he’s taken. Come to think of it, she looks like a Betty, and Paul did say he preferred Betty to Veronica…” her roommate went on and on. With every word she uttered, Michelle’s heart sank a little more as she stared at the woman interviewing Paul. Her platinum blond her was long and flowing down her shoulders and back. Her blue eyes twinkled behind long curly lashes and her dewy skin was almost glowing as she smiled brightly with every answer Paul gave her. Her roommate said, “She seems to be well endowed, I’m surprised her producer didn’t tell her to wear a tank top or something to show off her curves.” She turned to Michelle who hadn’t said a word and noticed her crestfallen look. “I’m sure it’s nothing, Paul doesn’t look too happy being interviewed by her, well, he looks happy, but,” “You’re not helping!” Michelle said. Her roommate apologized then observed, “you know she and Paul are both wearing gray tops and blue jeans. Come to think of it, they make a good looking couple, he with his dark exotic features and she with her…” “I’ve had enough,” Michelle said dejectedly, “didn’t you say there was a frat party going on right now? I feel like doing something fun for a change.” Her roommate just smiled and said, “yup, its about time you lightened up. For someone who chose to go to College, you’re missing the whole experience with all your worrying about skating and competitions.” An hour later both ladies were headed to frat party. Michelle decided to wear a red v-necked t-shirt with quarter length sleeves over a short black skirt and she finished off her look with strappy sandals. She felt a little bit nervous because she didn’t know what to expect. She’s heard about all these parties but never felt adventurous enough to go in. She also usually doesn’t have the time. She hasn’t even gone to a Ducks game since pre-season and Paul wasn’t even playing then due to a hip injury. He wasn’t injured enough to take her out to dinner though and she smiled at the memory. Then she remembered why she decided to go to this party again, to wipe off the memory of the Coolshots interview. The door opened to the frat house and the host, one of the frat brothers, welcomed her and her roommate in. “Ladies, welcome, welcome. My name is Josh. Hope you guys have fun tonight.” Michelle doubted it. It was turning out to be an awful night, she thought as she entered the foyer. She was taken aback by all the people in the house. It was pretty crowded and quite loud. They had a DJ playing songs she’s never heard, probably made by some rock bands just starting out by the sound of it. Nobody was really dancing…or at least they pretended they were trying to dance to the music while trying to make some conversation or flirting with each other. There was also beer, lots of it. Some of the guys she passed practically reeked of it. Some of the ladies weren’t fairing well either. She saw someone throw up in a vase in the living room. Michelle was not comfortable at all, but her roommate kept telling her that this was normal. The host decided to leave them to some of his frat brothers. “Gentlemen, these lovely ladies need some company while I get them a drink? Any preference ladies?” Josh asked. “No thanks, I’m fine.” Michelle answered while her roommate asked for some soda. “So, you’re name is Michelle? I swear to you, I had a best friend named Michelle back home,” one of the frat brothers said. “Is that so? How…interesting,” Michelle answered then turned to her roommate and whispered, “I’m ready to leave now,” “But it’s only started, let’s stay a little bit more, it could get better later.” Her roommate answered. “Alright.” Suddenly Michelle squealed and spun around quickly, “excuse me sir, did you pinch me?” Michelle asked, embarrassed as well as a bit peeved. Nobody has treated her like that before. “Why so formal, hotstuff. You are looking good enough to eat. How about treat us to some of those sexy skating moves you do.” A behemoth of a guy, one of the frat brothers called Little John, said. “Not in this lifetime,” Michelle answered. “Oh, win a few medals and she thinks she’s miss high-and-mighty now, eh?” Little John continued. “Leave her alone, jerk!” her roommate said and dragged Michelle away from the fray. “Thanks,” Michelle said. “No problem, some College guys are jerks anyway. Look if you want to leave, I can understand. I saw a couple of my friends in there and they feel like going somewhere else. You can come with us if you want?” Her roommate asked. “No, it’s alright, I feel like being alone anyway. I think I’ll drive around for a while then head off to Disneyland, best place to be to get rid of the doldrums, sometimes.” Michelle said. “Okay, see you later then,” her roommate and left.

around her chest and started walking towards her Lexus jeep. She really needed to find something else to occupy her mind. She really didn’t care where she went at the moment. A little while later she realized she was already in Tustin, California. Her mind must be more occupied by him than she thought. Well, might as well drop by his house and hope that he was done entertaining whoever he was entertaining. She parked her jeep and walked up to the door of Paul Kariya’s townhouse. She rang the doorbell. Expecting Paul when the door opened, Michelle was surprised to see a beautiful blond woman in a form fitting dress instead. “Hi, can I help you?” The woman asked. “Is Paul Kariya in?” Michelle asked stupefied, realizing that the woman was the one who interviewed Paul from NHL Coolshots. What was she doing here? Is she the one Paul was supposed to entertain tonight or is she the one doing the entertaining? Michelle shook her head to drive away her depressing thoughts. “I’m sorry, he’s a little busy right now. If you need his autograph, I’ll be glad to get it for you.” The lady said condescendingly. “No, it’s alright. I’ll just write a letter or something.” Michelle said quickly, a little disheartened but nevertheless insulted by the woman’s words. She turned around and started walking away from the townhouse as she heard the door slowly close behind her. She felt numb and very confused. She got into her jeep and drove away again. In the townhouse, Paul Kariya looked up from the dinner table when Danielle Rabbe came in. She had excused herself earlier to freshen up. She volunteered to answer the door when the doorbell rang since she was closest to it. She was a very beautiful woman, and many men would be charmed by her obvious charms especially in the dress she had on. Paul was not impressed. His tastes these days called for a certain raven-haired beauty with a petite body that fit him to a tee whose curves would be the envy of any Baywatch babe. No plastics or saline in sight, she didn’t need any. That and she had a mind to match that kept him constantly challenged. Michelle also seemed to have a sensuality about her that was innate. Mix that with her innocence and you have one lethal combination that left him sometimes struggling for control when he was with her. He smiled. Thinking the smile was meant for her, Danielle smiled in response. Paul looked away, then asked, “so, who was at the door?” “Oh some Chinese girl, I think, or probably Japanese, I can never tell. Probably looking for your autograph, but she left when I said you were busy.” Danielle said. Paul’s attention was caught when she said “Chinese.” It couldn’t be Michelle, he thought, since she said she would be studying tonight at her dorm. That and “girl” is not really something someone would describe Michelle. She was all woman. He smiled again. Danielle smiled in response again. She sat next to Paul thinking he was glad she got rid of any distractions. She wasn’t afraid to make the first move since she heard Paul was the shy type. She started to get closer to him when the doorbell rang again. Paul jumped up immediately from his chair and excused himself from Danielle. He silently thanked God for the welcome interference. “Paul, it’s probably that girl again. Don’t worry about her.” Danielle said annoyingly while she followed him to the door. “Well then I’ll be able to give her the autograph she requested.” Paul replied. He then opened the door and smiled from ear to ear. “Dan Moriarty am I glad to see you! Come in.” Paul said a little enthusiastically, much to the further annoyance of the lady behind him. “Well that’s a first.” Dan said as he shook Paul’s hand as he stepped inside. He greeted Danielle Rabbe, Jen’s understudy, sort of. Most of the hockey players don’t mind being interviewed by such a lovely young woman, but it seems Paul wasn’t one of those players. He seems to be ready to be rid of her presence. He knew it had to do with someone he almost bumped into outside. “Is Jen coming?” Paul asked. “She’s on her way. We still have to figure out what to do on one of the future Coolshots episode with you and your brother. She has all the ideas usually so we have to wait for her. I apologize for being late. Have you guys eaten?” Dan asked. “No, we were just hanging out in the dining room while waiting for you. Robyn, my chef, prepared a veritable feast. She knew you had a big appetite.” Paul said. The trio decided to wait for Jen, Dan’s co-host, at the living room. Paul decided to sit in one of the wing chairs. Danielle, seeing where Paul was situated, pouted and had no choice but to sit next to Dan on the couch. Dan Moriarty laughed at her expression. She ignored him. He turned his attention to Paul again. “Paul, you’d never guess who I almost bumped into outside.” Dan asked nonchalantly. “If it’s a Chinese girl, don’t bother I already told him. She was just looking for his autograph.” Danielle said. “Girl?!? I’m sorry to disappoint you Danielle, but I believe she was a woman and quite stunning one at that. Besides why would she be looking for his autograph, by the looks of it, you should be asking her for hers instead.” “Why who is she?” Danielle said. “No other than two-time World Champion, Olympic Silver medalist Michelle Kwan. Ahem, THAT Chinese girl. She looked quite preoccupied though so that’s why she didn’t notice me.” Dan said facetiously. “THAT was Michelle Kwan?!? I didn’t know. She didn’t have her skating dress on, so I didn’t recognize her. I was so rude to her. I mean what was she doing visiting Paul’s house?” Danielle said, trying to explain her behavior when Paul looked at her sharply. He then stood up quickly and grabbed his leather jacket and his car keys. He had to find Michelle. He already knew what she would be thinking for he would feel the same way if the situation were reversed. “Go figure. Excuse me Dan, I have something more important to attend to. You can still have your dinner if you don’t mind being without a host. Send my apologies to Jen and reschedule the meeting another time.” Paul said. “HA! So that’s the way the wind blows. I was right. No worries, I’ll tell her. Plus, can’t let all that food go to waste. If you don’t mind, I’ll have my dinner now, I’m starving.” Dan said as he headed to the Dinning room. “Oh, Danielle, are you coming? Forget about him, he seems to be quite taken.” “What does he see in her?” Danielle asked pouting again. “A whole lot more than he sees in you or any other woman for that matter.” Dan said to himself as he surveyed the feast before him. He was going to have a very good dinner indeed. He couldn’t wait to tell Jen what just happened.

[mano]

He had no idea where she was. He tried to call her cellular phone, but she was not answering. He knew she wouldn’t have made it back to her dorm yet, but decided to call there just in case. “Hello?” “Hi, this is Paul, is Michelle there yet?” Paul asked. “Hey, Paul, no she isn’t yet. Haven’t seen her since we left the frat party.” Michelle’s roommate said. “Frat party? She didn’t tell me she was going to one. I thought she was studying.” Paul said. “Well she was, but she got upset when she saw you being interviewed by that blondie on Coolshots, so she decided to have some fun.” Her roommate said. “Oh great. No wonder she ran. Well, did she have fun? At the party I mean?” “Not really, we both got out of there a few minutes after, not all that was cracked up to be, that and some guy was bothering Michelle. But nothing happened, I assure you.” Her roommate said quickly when Paul shouted “WHAT” that still had her ear ringing. “So you really don’t know where she is?” Paul asked. “No, wait, oh I remember, she said she was going to drive around for a while then go to Disneyland to forget you or something.” Her roommate said. “Thanks,” Paul said then hung up. Disneyland. It’s a big place, but it’s a start. Michelle was sitting on an enlarged teacup. The ride itself was closed, but she had asked permission from the operator to sit there for a while. The park was going to be closing soon, but not after the parade on Main Street was over. The fireworks will signal the closing of the park. The place was pretty deserted since all the people headed to Main Street to find a place to sit to watch the festivities. She enjoyed the peace and quiet but only for a moment because her mind kept remembering the beautiful blond at Paul’s townhouse. She seemed more than eager to make sure she and Paul were alone and she can understand why. Paul wouldn’t say no to a woman like that. He’s a very virile man and wouldn’t have to worry about an irate father the day after. “He was probably bored with you, anyway?” Michelle said out loud as she leaned back and crossed her arms over her chest. “Bored with who?” Michelle literally jumped from her seat when she heard his voice. She looked at Paul. Shock and pleasure written all over her face. She tried to look unaffected. It was hard because he was just so gorgeous standing there by the railing. He had his black leather jacket on over granite colored merino sweater and black pants and black utility oxfords. His spiked hair was blowing slightly in the wind, she felt her fingers curl, wishing it was her hands tussling his hair instead. “How did you find me?” She asked. “Your roommate told me where you were then I just went into Disney’s security office to see if they can find a pouting raven-haired beauty sitting alone somewhere in this vast park. I’m just glad they had cameras stationed all over the place, it was quite easy to locate you then. You didn’t answer my question, Michelle, who’s bored with who?” Paul said as he walked away from the railing and slowly towards the teacup that Michelle was in. She looked around for any escape but then had to ask herself if she really wanted to escape this. She looked at his eyes as he slowly got closer. He looked back intensely, willing her to stay where she was. She couldn’t move even if she tried, that strong was his hold over her. He reached the cup and asked, “may I come in?” “Sure, make yourself comfortable.” Michelle said nervously. “I intend to.” Paul said mysteriously as he sat across from her. An uncomfortable silence followed. Paul could practically feel her nervousness. He hasn’t felt that from her since the Fanfair. He decided to break the ice. He cleared his throat. “You stopped by earlier at my house?” He asked gently. “Yes, no, I mean, I did, but you had company so I left.” Michelle said evasively. “She means nothing to me if it helps.” Paul said. She was bottling up too much inside again. He wanted her to open up. “How can she not, she’s beautiful, she’s tall, obviously well endowed and she seems to worship every word you uttered in the NHL Coolshots interview. And she’s blond and you seem to prefer blonds, like Betty in the Archie Comic books and that model Rebecca Romijn-STAMOS, yes she’s married, but you forgot to include her husbands last name in another interview.” “I take it you don’t worship every word I say anymore.” Paul said smiling as he leaned back and listened to her continue her explanations. “Then that woman, in her skintight dress, had the audacity to ask if I wanted your autograph? If I waved my Disney contract in her face I bet she’d take it and have you sign it without batting an eye and never figure out who I am. She practically held your door like she owned the whole house. If I wasn’t so nice, I would have, would have…” “Would have what?” Paul asked amused. “Let me think about that for a while.” Michelle said fuming. “You are TOO nice, that’s one of the things I love about you. You always have positive things to say about everybody, even your fiercest competitor.” Paul said candidly. “So she IS my competition?” Michelle asked, still not sure if she could trust Paul’s use of “love.” “Michelle, to me she is a distant pewter, forget pewter, she doesn’t even make it past the qualifying round in this competition. As far as I’m concerned you are platinum to me. As for the competition, if there ever was one, it was over the moment I set my eyes on you.” As he said this he moved closer to Michelle. She couldn’t take her eyes of his. Tears were starting to form in her eyes. She tried to stop them, one escaped, but Paul caught it with his thumb as his hands brushed her soft cheek. He then lowered his face to kiss her slowly and softly. She responded and it became a deeper kiss. She shivered. Paul felt it and lifted his face. “You’re cold,” he said as removed his jacket and draped it over her shoulder. She thanked him. He knew her shivering wasn’t about the cold ‘cause he was burning up himself. With his jacket covering her, it would be less of a temptation for him.

Michelle asked quietly. “No, why should I, our conversations are always intelligent, I love being challenged by your questions and I don’t have to worry about explaining skate edges to you.” Paul said “She asked that? Oh, one of the Coolshots episodes again, nevermind. What I meant was, bored with me in the sense that we can’t really do much beyond kissing else my father will come knocking down your door. I mean, I am sure that lady would have more than welcomed you into her arms.” Michelle said hurriedly before looking away. “You think I would have slept with Danielle if the situation was right? Michelle, I would never do that. First of all, that was a business meeting, Dan and Jen were supposed to be there but they were late. Secondly, I would never consent to that even if she offered because I’m yours and that would be a serious lapse in my faithfulness. That and I don’t even find her charms all that impressive.” Paul said. “But you’re a man, all men respond to Pamela Anderson Lee bodies.” Michelle continued. “I can’t believe we are even having this argument. She’d be absolutely jealous of your body because you’re all real. You have a sensual innocence about you that drives me insane and I get extremely jealous ‘cause I know that every man that sees you skate, sees it too and wants what’s mine.” Paul said. Michelle was speechless. “I don’t know what to say.” Michelle said. “Say thank you.” Paul said. “Thanks…by the way, I get extremely jealous too, it’s the reason why where in this predicament in the first place.” “I know. Well, serves me right I guess, I acted the same way a couple of weeks back with that Tim guy. Which reminds me, your roommate said you went to a frat party?” Paul asked. Michelle groaned. “Well, seeing you getting cozy with that Danielle woman on TV made me want to do something drastic. It was a big mistake. The place was crowded, everybody was drinking and the guys only had one thing on their mind.” Michelle explained. “That’s what I was afraid of, did any guy touch you?” Paul asked angrily. “No, well, one guy pinched me and I got mad at him then my roommate called him a jerk and dragged me away. End of story.” Michelle said hurriedly. “He touched your As…” “PAUL!!! Well he pinched it, I didn’t invite him to, it took me by surprise and I told you my roommate and I left soon after.” Michelle said trying to calm him. “I was going to say assets. Just give me the name of the guy, I’ll have Stu and some of the guys shake him up a bit.” The captain in Paul Kariya decided to assert itself. “No thanks, Paul, I think the guy was drunk anyway and wouldn’t remember. Besides, my roommate’s friends probably took care of him. They saw what happened.” Michelle said calmly. “And by the way, are you getting your costumes cut higher? I could have sworn that your Hands costume is showing more of your assets than usual. On top and on the bottom.” Paul said, a bit of jealousy tinting his voice.” “Paul, we spoke about that before I set of for the competition in Kennewick, Washington back in December. Why bring it up now.” Michelle said, sighing. “I knew I should have asked you to model it before you left that day, you could have even skated at Disney Ice after our practice. And we didn’t talk about the high cut of your bloomers either,” Paul said pouting a bit. Michelle laughed, a little bit surprised about the sudden turn their conversation took. “Paul, your teammates are already tripping over themselves as soon as they see us together, imagine if they got to see what they saw on TV of me in my costume up close and personal.” Michelle explained. “Then they’d answer to me and I would never allow them to get up close or personal.” Paul said heatedly. “Well, if it helps any, you are the inspiration for my costumes.” Michelle said teasingly. “Great, next time remind me to inspire you to wear a nun’s habit instead.” Paul bluntly answered. Michelle laughed out loud. She couldn’t help it. She likes it when he gets quite possessive. She feels the same way with him. She touched Paul’s forehead hoping to straighten out the worry lines that formed there. He looked at her, his anger fading. This time she initiated their kiss and he was more than glad to follow. It would have gone on longer, but the fireworks signaling the end of the parade started. Paul and Michelle reluctantly separated and both looked up to drink in the sight of the fireworks at display. They stayed there sitting close to each other, at peace despite the noise above them. When the fireworks was over, both stood up and walked arm in arm towards the monorail to have dinner at the Disneyland hotel. Michelle turned and looked at Paul while they were waiting for a private table to be prepared for them. “What is it?” Paul asked, a smile lighting his face. “I’m just thinking that it turned out to be a beautiful night after all.” Michelle said smiling in return. “I totally agree.” Paul said. Without missing a beat, he added, “Any night with you would be beautiful.” ~The End~

[kjesse]

I know this is fiction but damn you write so well it feels real. I find myself picturing the teacups and their scene together. Then I find myself thinking "no wonder the dude has been so hot on the ice". Now I'm laughing cause it's just my fantasy. All these wonderful stories remind me of my romance novel days. I used to devour those things. Regarding Phillippe and his bare chest: yuck Sorry to offend anyone but it's never been even a slight turn-on for me. Watched the Japan Open tonight and thought Oksana Kazakova's back made Phillippe look like a fatty. Between her and Michelle, wow if my body could come close to looking that good... Regarding the thread from that other board. I will call that person a liar, littlepebbles1 you're too kind. It's was mentioned in 97/98 that Mr. Kwan enjoyed his cigarettes, so what. But I will not believe that 6.0 is puffing anything unless I see it. It's never been discussed before, so it would have to be something she recently started, and I just don't buy it. I smoked for many years, and used to teach aerobics and run 20-30 miles a week while I was smoking. From what I've seen a smoker will quit for their health and/or athletics, but a very athletic person (like our 6.0) will not start smoking. Just blow that rumor off. :-) Sorry this wasn't all BFFF related but I just wanted to put in my two cents. Mano thanks for the info on the ducks, keep it coming. We were in a slump but I think were starting to kick it up. 5 out of a possible 6 points, on the road, against 3 good teams is the way to start. Now on to Philly!!

[littlepebbles1]

Now let me ask you a question. I think I missed something, what is the country club and community golf course thing about? I see people refer to it, but I don't know what they are talking about. Mano -- Well, well, well. Well, well. Well, well, well, well. Great story. I'm sure the 2 stars made a very striking couple with the red top and gray sweater. ;o) ;o) What, no epilogue??? LOL, j/k.

[eilaram]

Yes Mano that did answer my question, the reason I asked is because I saw a message on one of the boards posting a link here. Refresh my memory, who exactly are Betty and Veronica? Regarding rssif, I have a question for all of you that go there. Whenever I go there I can never quite figure it out and end up leaving with a headache after reading only a few messages...it is confusing to anyone else? I really hope its not just me. Any pointers on how to navigate around there?

[skatingfan]

Congratulations to Paul Kariya for winning the individual puck control? contest.He scored 1 point for N. Am team, but in the end the world team won 13 to 11. There was a photo shoot of PK with some other all stars on a frozen pond. He was trying to balance/bounce the puck off a hockey stick, #9 must have been playing golf with 008. When it comes to bouncing something off the end of a stick/golf club shape thing, I think my vote will go to...... LP what is your email, or how do I get to your mailing list? I can tell you about the community golf course and the country club. Eilaram, rssif could be confusing to read b/c most of the time when a thread is started e.g. on Judy Garland's dog, and end up with discussion about the republican primary, not that bad. I think it is good to choose so short nice thread to read first, e.g. there is one there about MK's spiral. I think posters have to posting there for YEARS, they almost have their own culture and lingo. Imagine someone try to read BFFF w/o the intro material that is provided above. But we do have a chance to read Morry, loosemore, hazen, and some f.s. judges. I lurk more than post, but when and if I post I am ready to back up what I say, people there could confrontational.

[ML]

Hey, you guys are HILARIOUS :) Nice Going !!! Watch out though, I read it somewhere that TG is studying Asia History in college --- I wonder WHY?! Chemy may have to work overtime to do some more damage control. BTW, Chemy, Beth at MKC asked about my Baby MK pic. so I sent her over here to ask you. Hope you don't mind :) Meno, your creative writings are brilliant!!! Please continue your Ice Age story soon. However. I won't blame you if you're out somewhere doing hubby-hunting and dating. After all, you can't just live on the net for us fans and MK. More POWER to you :) All the Best to Y'ALL :)

[skatingfan]

YS, we MISS YOU. So glad to see you at rssif this am, when are you coming back here. You guys mean Mano is missing in action b/c of hubby hunting? Mano, please come back soon with good news. We are die hard romantics here in Beefer land. LP, I was going to email you about community golf course and country club, but decided to just mention it a bit here. It is just my way of working out some frustration about the chilling relationshionship between fans of MK and .... I think MK forum is like a community golf course, BTW, Tiger grew up playing in community golf courses, and not country clubs. I got this idea b/c we are not an official site for Mk, and we are all here b/c we love her. some community golf courses are very good, e.g. every year I believe a community golf course in Chicago host the PGA event the Western Open. It takes a lot of effort from people who love golf , and that golf course to pull it off. Unlike country clubs that have more $ and resources. BTW, Tiger Woods, and other skater(s) have official websites managed by professional people, so I joke that their web sites/message boards are country clubs. By no means I am putting down athletes who have official webs managed by professional people, b/c Tiger has one. I just love Mk forum so much. Can you imagine we are in the EZ board showcase? Can you imagine how hard Heather and Jenny work on this. And Heather updates her site often, sometimes twice a day, she does not get paid. It is all just for the love of MK. I am really drifting off topic. I think a lot of fans need some sort of humor thing to fall back on when things are too heated. I have my community golf course metaphor here, or the Duck suit metaphor when things gets too bad at fsw. Tara fans have their death star. Talking about rssif, just curious to know more about their hot tub. It seems to serve the same purpose my community golf course and duck metaphor, but a bit steamier.

[mano]

Where in tarnation did you guys get the idea that I was hubby hunting. I thought Chemy was the hubby hunter. She's the one searching for a sweetypie. Me I'm fed up with guys here in NYC, I always find something wrong about them as usual. Methinks I'm too picky...that or that oath to stay single until MK and PK get hitched to each other is getting in the way of my love-life, ahahahaha!!! Anywho, have 2000 NHL All-Star game in my possession. Loved Teemu and PK's interview, nice silver shirt that featured some nice pecs on PK, I say (from the Skills comp on Saturday). Also loved the outtakes from the Pond with PK, Lindros, Bure, Gretzky, Jagr, Howe, and Super Mario. I think the intermission was the only thing worth watching in today's broadcast. As for the game, OY, I thought I was watching the Ducks being beat up by the Redwings, that's how bad the North American team was (no offense Ducks). Final scored 8-4 in favor of the World. PK, no goals nor assist.

[skatingfan]

Mano, I am in between comnmercial breaks for the football pro bowl. Too bad I just watched the 3rd period of all star game, but did pop in a tape to record the fluff piece at the end. Have to admit Kariya is looking better everytime he is on tv, love that maroon color shirt he wears today, have to say he is the best colored cordinated and handsome player in that fluff piece, BTW Lindros looks good too. Sigh...... Sundays ought to be 008 wearing red sitting on top of leader board time, I guess not today, he is no where near that. BTW did anyone check out the thread in MK chat about music cds that we have on MK programs? Someone thought Joshua Bell would be a good future bf for MK. Bell is very handsome, sensitive, bright and one of the best violinist of the young generation. He is also 12 - 13 years older than MK.

[mano]

Skatingfan, what fluff piece would you be referring to? I only saw him with the other generation Next on the outside pond and they were wearing their respective uniforms. I have the whole thing on tape so I better watch it all again. Was it today's game or skills game? What period, etc. Nevermind, I think you may be referring to the uniform...Duck colors are purple and teal aren't they? Well, he was also wearing a black turtleneck under there.

[eilaram]

I'm sort of laughing at myself. Only a few months ago I had never sat through a whole game of hockey. Today I sat down and watched the whole game. I decided to watch the game upstairs to prevent questions from my family because they know I'm not really a hockey fan. But my mom still came up and looked really surprised that I was watching it. From the look on her face I knew she wanted to ask why in the world I was watching it (but it was still not not near as inquiring a look that my dad had when my sister asked me who won at dinner). Luckily she didn't because I do not know what I would have said. I was disappointed in the game, but it was still nice seeing it. I also found out I have been murdering the pronunciation of Selanne. BTW does anyone know if Michelle's mom went to GPF. I rewatched it yesterday and during the middle of her scores Michelle mouthed something. I am a pretty bad lip reader but it looked like she said hi mom, but by watching it again I think it could be something else...like hi to someone else. If her mom was there then it is unlikely it was to her mom.

[skatingfan]

Mano, it is the pond fluff piece, anywho,PK was wearing a deep color shirt , I thought it was maroon. Since I missed the first 2 periods of the game, I only saw the 3rd period. Then those commentators said, for those of you who missed it earlier, put a tape in your VCR. I thought Paul was wearing Maroon. What can I say, I am really delirious today since master Tiger is 5 strokes behind. I am so used to seeing him in his Sunday red, and lately he is changing color scheme a bit just shades of red e.g maroon. OF course he is wearing a white shirt, and light pink? pair of pants today, and tomorrow is the final round. 008 please throw away the pink pants. Eilaram don't worry about how your behavior had changed. I never watched hockey before and sunk $90 for tix in 11/99 just to see the ducks beat the daylight out of the caps. And all I could tell from that game was #9 was very fast, and some 10 y/o #8 fan who was sitting behind me was screaming loud the whole time for TS. I guess, if you love Michelle, you will do anything. It has not been easy for the rest of the beefers to make a believer out of me that PK is the best for our angel. Now guys when was the last time that the Paul fans were talking about this forum? BTW, do you think MK reads BFFF? Those 2 need to get a clue about each other, so we don't have to fast and pray so hard, and give Mano a chance for her hunt. BTW, since I am rambling, while I was watching pro bowl, there was a nats commercial with SC, NNN, Sh and MK. They were saying in the background , everyone wants to get to the top, but they have to pass Michelle. Then half of the screen they showed Mk skating to TRV in SA. The other half of the screen showed Sasha first, I forgot what she said, then SH, SH had a huge smile and said, " I admire Michelle Kwan>", then NNN, " I think I can challenge MK." I don't want to post this in the main board, things are a bit busy there. So guys be ready for a fluff piece on this subject.

[blizzard]

Not to be negative, but I want to know about the rumors at rssif. From what I interpreted from this board: Michelle's dad beats her (doubt it) and Michelle smokes? Help me out here. And I got a glimspe of Paul Kariya when they were asking him about playing with his brother...*sigh* so cute:)

[kjesse]

To start things off, blizzard I didn't check out RSSIF (to much hassle to read the threads, I agree w/Eilaram) so I'm not sure what they were talking about, but at Figure Skating Universe a poster made some coments about Michelle & her father. It was brought up here around 2/2/00 -2/3/00 (see above) or if you want here's the thread: <A HREF=http://pub1.ezboard.com/ffigureskatinguniversefanchat.showMessage?topicID= 1071.topic >http://pub1.ezboard.com/ffigureskatinguniversefanchat.showMessage?topicID= 1071.topic </A> Now I don't know if this pasha poster started this crap or if it was started at RSSIF, and it doesn't mention anything about beating but this poster writes wierd stuff alot, I don't believe it and it kind of pisses me off. Mano guys from NYC don't do much for you cause they're not PK! Awhile back I read this romance novel called "Shanna" by Kathleen Woodiwiss and the dude in that novel, in my mind, was the perfect man. No guy was good enough for the longest time. Kind of embarrassing to admit that but what can I say. I saw PK in his black Tshirt. It was during intermission when they had a camshot in the locker room. Mmmm. :-) Now alittle golf. skatingfan I don't know how you feel about this, but I don't see how any of these golfers can keep their concentration going with all these goofballs around. Tiger had to wait way too long for that bozo Ray Romano and others. I still think he can catch up. By the way, I'll be spending a few days at Disneyland the week after the Nationals and I intend to check out the Teacups around closing time just in case. I have an annual passport and go at least 2x a month so I start paying more attention to the other visitors.

[skatingfan]

2x a month to disneyland, have a blast at nats and disneyland. Thanks for having so much faith in 008. You have more faith in him. Tonight, I need to face Windermere FL, and bow, "master tiger I am not worthy." His #6 consecutive PGA win. #17 total. He came back and finished the tournament with eagle, birdie, par and birdie. All decked in Sunday/Monday red, and black pants + that smile, as winsome today as it was when he was 2.5 y/o. Thanks beefers for allowing me to gush a bit here. I only post in f.s. and MK boards, I dont even post in clubtiger.

[mano]

Hilarious thing about those tea cups, don't really know that exact size of those things. Could be really cramp for all I know so PK and MK would really have been fictionally squooshed, yey!!! Skatingfan, CONGRATS to your man Tiger. Now I am praying MK would have the same killer instinct he has. Hope PK has that too for that matter, need it to make it to the playoffs. On another interesting note Littlepebbles, remember we lamented the fact that MK and PK won't see each other for a long time 'cause he went to that long East Coast roadtrip starting in Jan 29 and also had to go to the All-Star games in Toronto. By the time he's back, which was probably Monday 02/07, MK would be in Cleveland for Nationals and won't get to see him until February 16 (past Valentines, Ducks in Away game on the 2/14). Anywho, just interesting to note that her midterm kept her from leaving for Cleveland until today, 02/08. So maybe they fictional met. Hope he gave her some killer instinct pointers but at the same time helped her to relax a bit (in a good way folks, not gutter), heehee.

[kjesse]

I'm sorry I misrepresented myself. I ment that after the Nationals were over I was going to Disneyland, not that I was going to Nationals then Disneyland. I wish... About those teacups, 3 adults can fit as long as they're not too big. No way with four. I think #9 & 6.0 would be ok. Yes please let's have them hook up fictionally before she jets off to Nationals because I think they both could use some relaxation. #9 has to go out tonight and prove that the last 4 games were the real thing and the Mighty Ducks are not going to lay down and quack. They have to make their move now. Sorry again for non bfff stuff, last time I promise, but Skatingfan "The Man" does it again. I love Tiger. Been watching him since his 2nd amateur. Hard not to hear about him if you're living here in Orange County. So, for those of you who may be interested, here is the shot that started the charge: (you must have real player) <A HREF=http://www.sportsline.com/u/video/pga000207e_g.ram >http://www.sportsline.com/u/video/pga000207e_g.ram </A>

[Amelia]

Hey guys, about tea cups... last summer I went with my family to Disneyland and all 5 of us sat in one! My dad is rather a large fellow, and the rest of us are all medium sized, except the 8 year old sister who is, well, the size of an 8 year old. Needless to say, we were smashed. Michelle and PK would be just fine though, a perfect, romantic fit! ;-) Amelia

[skatingfan]

Kjesse, I think Tiger fans are covered here, under the general umbrella of Mk fan fiction. In my fiction he will be the godfather of all of 6.0's children. BTW, have you read my post in MK fiction, titled, "I know #9, and 6.0, but who is 008". It is a rather fun piece I copied from golfweb.com after master tiger. Last time I was in disneyland, I thought the tea cup can comfortably fit 4 people. Well Valentine's day is fast approaching. Mano, please give us a valentine story. Let's pick up from ...... firework was seen in the sky as they were walking hand in hand into the hotel restaurant?

[mano]

and silently ROFLOL if that's possible. Anywho, BFFFers Michelle has just announced that she doesn't have a boyfriend yet in the following link: <A HREF=http://www.usatoday.com/money/bcovwed.htm >http://www.usatoday.com/money/bcovwed.htm </A> Sigh, Thank God we be FICTION. Okay, where the h*ck is Yingshan, time to go to "Plan B" Operation PK WAKE UP!!! or OPWU for short. Well there was speculation in the Yahoo clubs that PK has a girlfriend...maybe it's that Danielle Rabbe from Coolshots. Maybe that's why he's been so hot, aheeheehee. Consider me Pagliacci right now 'cause I'm ROFLOL on the outside, but crying inside, sniff, sniff.

[eilaram]

Wah! I come here after school everyday to cheer up and get my daily dose of laughter, I didn't expect to get sad news. I guess I'll survive...maybe my calculus homework will turn out to be thrilling...you know how those diff eqs can really get your blood going. Hmm, too bad that I believe so much in her integrity that I cannot fathom that she's lying...

[skatingfan]

What sad news. If it is the speculation on Yahoo, it is just speculations. Don't be sad. I am so glad you found calculus, and D.E. thrilling. I aced Calculus I, II, III, D.E. and statistics in undergrad. I remember one thing that helped me in addition to going to class and doing homework was to organize a study group. Yes, I shared the thrill with the members of my study group.

[Sharon]

mano! What a great story. You make my day! I also really liked the article you linked...If only she knew :-)!

[littlepebbles1]

Bad: No PK Good: No other guy Now all our stars need to do is cross paths again. Then us BFFFers can provide the duck for dinner and the mushy cookie for dessert along with candlelight and violin music, etc.

[chemy]

More damage control (Slap USAToday for sloppy editing) <img src=http://www.geocities.com:80/Tokyo/Flats/3170/bf.gif> Apologies to USAToday, MK :-) Can someone post Danielle Babe's, er I mean Rabbe's photo. Where's Jarrett? Jarrett, we need help. Time to do some splicing.... ML, I'm flattered. Thank you for showcasing the anim.gifs :-) LilPebs, maybe we should have our own domain: www.mkbfff96.com

[skatingfan]

Mano, you ask about plan B, here is my $0.02. It is time that the mighty duck receives a copy of a special angel video. I remember back in BFFF chapter 2 or 3 there were talks about that. Nats will start tomorrow. This year's theme will be Mk and new comers. So we need to make a video of MK's sp, lp, and add SH, SC, and NNN, i.e the Young and breastless, do not add more. To make it look legit, you probably need to put in the men's comp also, so put in 3X4, and Michael Weiss whoever. Do not include pairs, or dancers. Maybe you should throw in the MK at the beach fluff piece. To make it legit, maybe throw in a fluff piece of 3X4 if you can find one. Include the usatoday article will be nice, but you have to include a Michael Weiss or 3X4 article too. Please write him a nice fan letter, just like Magenta, talking about how you love skating/hockey, and are so inspired by athletes like #9, and 6.0 or even 3X4. Now, I cannot be the one who is writing this letter, b/c I am not a die hard Japanese Lightning fan, it will come across as insincere. I will be glad to help with taping etc. Then all Beefers who have signed blood contracts should chant and offer KFC between now and tomorrow, and hope our angel will give the skate of her life, especiallyTRV, in the V. Secret costume please. What do you think.

[eilaram]

To make this sort of on topic, thank you very much chemy. Skatingfan: I basically understand everything and I made an A in there last semester and have the second highest grade in the class...And since this is high school I can always come in for help before and after school. As far as I know there are no study groups, but if there were they might be interesting...I am one of only 5 girls in the class, so it is dominated by a bunch of guys, most of whom are as obsessed with pro wrestling as I am with skating...and they have these "celebrations" that include the windmill, the grasshopper, and the bunny eating a rat...never mind don't ask. BTW mano, do you have something against blondes or just blondes that interview PK?

[Karin]

ROTFL!!!

[skatingfan]

Congrats for doing so well in class, second highest wonderful. I wrote about my experience but of course that was college, I don't have much in common with the guys either, BTW, all the people in my study group were guys. I just found that more fun, and broke the routine of just studying alone. I think if I did not have the study group I would be making the same grade. Don't let the fact that there are less # of girls in the class make you enjoy the class less. ( I am not implying that you are not enjoying it. You mentioned being "thrilled".) My calculus teacher in college often said, "math is 95% perspiration and 5% inspiration, at least in the undergrad level, and I found it very true. I was not a math major, but I love math, gave me the confidence to solve problems under pressure. Anywho, best of luck to your calculus and D.E.

[mano]

No, I don't have anything against blonds. Just Baywatch types that seem to gravitate towards PK. You know, that Anu girl fiasco et al. Otherwise, I have no preference when it comes to hair color. I think I have to apologize to Danielle Rabbe 'cause she could be the nicest person on Earth. That being said, however, I'll probably be the first to punch PK if he shows up with her or some other Baywatch babe at the NHL Awards or something...hehe, just kidding. LOL Skatingfan, I ain't doin' the honors. That's too much work. Magenta is good at that or Chemy, she's excellent in editing. Plus you need Yingshan to direct it, but she's been missing in action since I don't know when. Thus we don't have budget either 'cause she holds the fictional purse strings. Littlepebbles has tons of ideas too, or Blizzard, A-Chan, Marcella (probably busy with her class) etc. Tons of talented beefers ready to serve, hehehe.

[skatingfan]

By it I do not necessarily mean you guys have to buy my project idea. But if you are so worried about mighty duck having a gf already etc, and want a plan B..... Let me plea my case with you fellow beefers again. This is the perfect time for the nationals video. B/C this years' theme is MK and the young skaters. These 3 skaters are all admirers of MK also. We can not tape worlds, b/c the top contenders there are not Young and breastless. One of the skater is even posing for Magazine. We can not choose next year nationals b/c Blondee, you know one of the 98 national medalist may be back. I think we need to put the exhibit program from MK and 3X4 or whoever will be men's champ into the video. I think it is good to include Mk in her Hands costume. Be brave beefers, if 008 does not have a gf already, I am willing to send him a tape of our angel. And one last reason to do it now. Plan B is always better than plan C. I don't ever want to brain storm for another match for 6.0, if #9 really finds himself a gf b/c he never had a chance to see our angel in her TRV costume.

[mano]

Yeah, but what if 9 suddenly sees these younger faster, flexible as a pretzel skaters and decides to wait, eh? Robbing the cradle now, but in a couple of years, you'll never know. Better to keep competition on the down low, I say.

[skatingfan]

Yikes,the idea of PK falling for the Y&B is kind of yuk.

[eilaram]

We may need another plan, with the fall and all. I think ABC and Disney enjoy teasing us b/c the great one commercial was shown right before Michelle skated.

[mano]

and taped it. I want Michelle to do a similar commercial with Gretzky, Howe, Lemieux walking towards the ice, then Bure, Lindros, Kariya, and Jagr skate to meet them. However, Michelle cuts them off and says I'm not ready to retire yet and then skate away while the hockey players look confused, heehee. Take that ABC!!!

[akemi_chan]

haven't post here in a while (though i've been reading everything)...anyhoo, i guess, PK and MK had a good nite....MK won the nationals and PK scored 2 goals (even though the ducks didn't win =(...). i'm glad she won...i don't know why all the articles say that sasha landed 6 triples cuz she didn't...she landed 5 triples...she fell on one and 2-footed another. but anyways...how will PK and MK celebrate...hmmmm another dinner at nieuport 17?

[littlepang]

hey ppl, i'm dying for a Valentines story here.. =D a V-day special edtion pic would be nice too....

[kjesse]

skatingfan I thought your 008 had a girlfriend? A blond no less. I was sorry 008s streak ended yesterday but consider how close he came even when he was driving so poorly on those last 5 holes. He is just so awesome, truely spectacular. Mano that commercial would be classic!! Regarding PK even looking at those baby ballerina's, I think not. He doesn't seem the type to even be remotely interested in jail bait. Please don't use any baby ballerina story lines in our fantisies. It would break my heart. But then again those of you who write our stories do such an outstanding job that no doubt that story line would probably be used in an ok way. I'm being wishywashy but I don't want to stunt any creative ideas. :-) Recently there have been some rumers on sportnews and even in our local papers that the Ducks should consider trading PK or TS to make the team better. One rule Disney owned teams have is they NEVER discuss trades/hiring/firing in the media until it's happened. Today an exception was made regarding these rumers. It's very good: <A HREF=http://www.ocregister.com/sports/ducks014w.shtml >http://www.ocregister.com/sports/ducks014w.shtml </A> Maybe PK & MK could hookup with TS & his wife for a nice evening to celebrate her victory and the faith the Mighty Ducks have in their two leaders, then afterwards they could slip away for something more romantic.

[kjesse]

I think I broke a rule and need to confess. Friday night after the SP I went to the MKGA chat for the first time. Someone started a chant and some visualations for the LP, then everyone start saying things like, perfect 3/3, 6.0, 6.0, etc and she'll be in the kiss & cry and say hi mom, dad ,ect.. Well I couldn't help myself and typed, Hi PK. It worked for me, but I didn't realize what I'd done until it was too late. :-(

[skatingfan]

Yes, 008 has a blonde gf. I was just saying if he does not have a gf, I am willing to make an angel tape for him. BTW, anyone seen the new target commercial about supporting St. Jude children hospital. I think MK would be perfect for it, but since it is target, it couldn't be Mk I guess. Good that they ask Tiger, thanks master tiger, better Tiger than a SOI skater, and no offense to Kristi or Katia. This is 2/14, hope Mk receives a ton of roses. Hey, could be from a lot of guys, actually the more the better. #9 being traded? Hope he stays though, at least in the states.

[mano]

wont separate the "boys" hehe. Good for him for taking a stand. Wish somebody would do that for MK because the whole world thinks Michelle's win wasn't legit. That she needed help from the judges, ick. That makes me soooooo mad!!! I hope Michelle so proves them wrong BIG TIME!!! BTW, I'm hoping somebody else like, ahem, littlepebbles, or all you other talented writers out there do the honors for the Valentines story...I'm usually not creative when I'm upset...I might have a scene where I make a cameo and apply the water torture on Wilner, Longman, and Hersh and all the newspaper editors who decided to circulate Wilner's story nationwide.

[skatingfan]

Ahhhh............................................. .................................. The latest article by some cracker reporter said Mk won,. b/c usfsa had a chevy and ABC contract. That really makes me mad. I have been ignoring Hersh, and Wilner etc, at least they talk about their humble opinion about MK's skate. But this guy is out right irresponsible. Please email him. At least one good thing coming from it is I am learning a lot more about f.s. I am on vaction this week have nothing to do. I will tract down every skateweb article on presentation. BTW, a canadain judge wrote extensively about how to judge presentation on skateweb. I will look through all the rssif threads, guys go there and check out the one on Sasha's edge insecurity. I will listen to Mendelsohn's v. concerto again, and will even state how poorly her music was edited. i am mad now. I have usually don't get this mad about reporters. There were so many reporters who have dissed Tiger and Emmitt Smith in the past 2 - 3 seasons ( before their come back), I thought I am used reporters dissing my fav athletes . But this time that guy is irresponsible..

[eilaram]

A valentine's day story with a cameo and water torture is better than no story at all... I too am really fed up with all those articles. And now for my off topic advice for today...if you have not stretched in over a year and your sister asks you to try to get the y-spin position and you actually get it, do not then proceed to take her advice to take your hand resting on the wall off the wall, because that my friends is when you pull the upper muscles in the leg you are standing on.

[chemy]

I posted PK's pic here: <A HREF=http://www.onelist.com/community/BFFF96 >http://www.onelist.com/community/BFFF96 </A> Go to archives, Digest 7. :-)

[mano]

I think I'm limber enough to be able to do that...everytime Michelle does her Y spin, I do a version of my own ;o) CHEMY!!!!!! Super Hilarious Valentine pic!!! I'm sorry, but all of a sudden I had the urge to stuff a $20 down his loin cloth, er towel, I mean.

[Magenta]

How do I get there? Do I have to register as a member? Can you email the pic to me. Thanks.

[yingshan]

Hi, everyone, long time no see! My right thumb/shoulder problem flared up again and I was told to stay away from computer. So I haven't come in for a while. I don't have time to read through all the posts. But I did see my name mentioned several times on the first page. I'm so touched (weeping happy tears)! Mano was productive. Wow! I'm impressed. I drop in here because I found this year 2000 forecast about Cancer (Michelle's sign). Read it to see whether you can find anything interesting in there? <A HREF=http://astrologyzone.go.com/?np=ag.html&key=forecast_year_year_Cancer >http://astrologyzone.go.com/?np=ag.html&key=forecast_year_year_Cancer </A> BTW, did anyone see an interview of Michelle before the Nationals? She said how fans online are most enthusiastic talking about her romantic relationship. Wonder whom she's talking about? :-) Got to go! Later!

[mano]

What interview was that? If it's the USA Today article, she said she had no boyfriend (sniff, PK SLOW) 'cause she didn't have time. Was there another one? Anywho, we don't really speculate if she has a boyfriend, we pretty much are telling her who her boyfriend should be, heehee. We being the demanding fans that we are.

I was LOL at the link you posted for MK's Cancer sign. I think it mentioned having a baby in there somewhere. Yeah, I'm all for heating up the romance for her especially if PK is involved. You all think her parents have been protective of her in that sense...she hasn't appeared in a hockey game since pre-season and it seemed more like "I won't be watching live games for a while because I have school, comps, and my parent's think I'm too young." And PK was suitably pissed then.

Maybe she'll finally set her foot down and make the decisions that would make her happiest the most. She was probably too busy trying to please everybody instead.

[chinadoll]

that second picture (the one above the abs and below the SI cards) - is it real?? if it's not, it's a very good splice. in any case, they look real cute together!

[mano]

THAT was A REAL one. Chemy couldn't splice it that good even if she tried, and Chemy's good, heehee. Actually, if you check out BFFF21 or BFFF20 (don't know which one) you'll see the original pic. I finally found a pic of Michelle Kwan with Paul Kariya and Teemu Selanne on Dec 26 at the Mighty Ducks site, I think. It was from the Mighty Ducks fanfair that occured Jan. 17, 1999. Talk about a Christmas gift, waited almost a year for that. I screamed so loud, shook the whole house down...Okay, it was 3 in the morning so I screamed silently. The splicing Chemy did was to remove the interloper, Teemu, and the rest is history <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)">

[littlepebbles1]

I read in the local newspaper about a guy who invented a mouse that can be worked with the foot! Maybe when it gets out on the market, you can get one.

Very interesting about that astrology thing. Some comments I found interesting:

Your love life should start to percolate in May, too....Interestingly, after such a big career phase earlier in the year, May, June and July seem to provide plenty of fun time to enjoy the sweeter side of life. Romance doesn't end in May---in fact, it's only warming up. If you are single, participate in a charity benefit, because love could walk right up to you in the form of a hardworking coworker or committee co-chair with a big heart.

A charity benefit? Are the Ducks having any charity benefits around that time? Or would they be practicing for the playoffs?

Speaking of romance, your private life heats up in the first week of July...If you were concentrating on your career during the first four months of 2000, it seems fairly certain you won't be so single-minded by the middle of the year.

First week of July, huh? I think we all know what occurs then. A birthday present, maybe?

July is your most critical month of the year for romance and your closest relationship.

I found these statements interesting also:

Instead of worrying about the welfare of others (something you are prone to do all the time), you will finally put yourself first.

Maybe ISU, and some other people?

Watch for more lucky breaks in March and even more on the new moon of April 4. Heaps of praise and a new title (or competitive offer for a new job) are assured.

A new title? Wonder what kind of title that could be?

You may not know it, but you are getting ready for one of the greatest years of your life---from mid-2001 to mid-2002 Jupiter crowns you the celestial favorite.

Hey, the Olympics fall in that area!

Hope this bodes well for MK.

BTW, you have to be subscribed to the BFFF96 mailing list to look in the archives because the archives are for members only.

[yingshan]

Littlepebbles, you got most of the interesting points I found in the forecast. Don't you think it's like the writer wrote it with Michelle in mind? I almost fell off my chair when I got to the "mid-2001 to mid-2002" part. But of course, NNN and probably some other skaters are also Cancers. A new title in April? Meeting someone in a charity function in May? How could this be anyone but Michelle? If this forecast is accurate, our girl will start a close relationship in May. Mano is hopeless. With so many interesting points, the only thing you saw is the one about "baby". :-)

Other interesting points littlepebbles didn't mention:
"In May, a friend may surprise you by being willing to go out of his or her way to help you. You may also discover that an older person could become a great mentor, and teach you to handle some of life's challenges more easily."

An older mentor? Wonder who that can be?

"...you want your life to feel vibrant, active and real"

Our girl is certainly restless. :-)

"You may step out of the bustle of daily life for a while to concentrate on an important personal project. Or you may just want to keep your new sweetie all to yourself."

Michelle may skips the COI tour so she can be close by someone?

Okay, end of speculation. We shall see whether anything turns out to be true. But Michelle needs some sleep. She looked awful with her puffy face, eye bags, breakouts at the Nationals. I hate her ear-length hair. It doesn't have style at all. I like her last year's pixie style.

Littlepebbles, but that will just mess up my foot. I switched the mouse to left hand but was advised not to because my left hand wasn't used to be work so much and I'll mess it up too. I'm checking out the speak-type software, but that only works on typing, not graphics.

Mano, it's the USA Today article. She talked about how her fans analyze her every moves and all want to know whether she has a boyfriend. The immediate thought came to my mind was: "She found us out!" :-)

skatingfan, loved the Tiger!

[blizzard]

Wow. It has been soo long since I have last posted that ezboard has updated it's posting format. Well anyway: what's this I hear about the USA today article? I haven't been able to find it (can someone post a link? <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/smile.gif ALT=":)"> I'm getting kind of curious at how much she knows!?

[skatingfan]

Blizzard it is : www.usatoday.com/sorts/coment/brennan.htm
Beefers, I hope my story today is not offensive to anyone. We all know that the story will end with #9, and 6.0 sitting on their front porch rocking chairs, watching little swans and ducklings play. Our all wise producer YS did say that it is the process of getting there that could be interesting.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.0's parents told her that they will be out of town this weekend visiting friends in Seatle. 6.0 studied her
Medieval history for 2 hours and took a break. Her roomates were watching a video tape from the history channel on the Nanking massacre, so 6.0 joined them. She totally did not expect to watch something so heart breaking and horrifying. Afterwards, she cried herself to sleep. #9's phone call woke her up the next morning. 6.0 was still sobbing.
#9, " My darling are you crying?"
6.0 who can never lie," Yes."
#9, "Why?"
6.0, "Hmmmmm............, it would be so nice to see you now, I miss you."
#9, " I will be back soon, is that all, I am worried."
6.0," Oh please don't , I am really fine, I will be thinking of you."
6.0's study group were knocking at the door, "Hey Shelly, have you forgotten what time it is."
6.0, " I have to go, my study group is waiting."
6.0 gave her study group the notes she prepared for them, and excused herself from this study session.
The phone rang, 6.0 knew #9 is calling again, she smiled, "you are so thoughtful."
3X4, "6.0, how do you know it is me."
6.0," Oh 3X4, how are you."
3X4 spoke in Mandarin with a mid western accent told 6.0 happy Chinese N.Y, long life, good health and lots of children, grand children and great grand children.
6.0 was ROTFLOL, "3X4, I don't think I am ready for that yet."
3X4 totally puzzled, " ready for what."
6.0, "you just told me happy new year and lots of grandchildren, how long have you been learning Mandarin.
3X4 had a momentary vision of little swans doing Quintuple jumps on ice." Oh, evidently not long, I thought the tape said it was Happy N.Y. and prosperous life."
6.0 thanked him. 3X4 went on to ask about COI, he was excited to be invited this year, and he would start with 2 shows in Baltimore and DC immediately after worlds, and of course he would be in the mid west part of the tour. He said he was a bit nervous about it.
6.0," Don't be nervous, after all skating is entertainment not a sport."
3X4, "Oh no, you read that bozo tj's article. He is way out of line. I wrote him and his editors, and I have told everyone I know to cancel the newspaper. 6.0 you must know that I love you, I mean all the people in Ohio love you. When COI comes by here you must visit my school "
"Sounds nice, how are your Q&Q." 6.0 quickly changed the subject.
" My quads are fine, and the quint is a dream, but I will work at it, I have good motivation. So you don't think it is weird huh"
6.0, "What weird."
3X4, " I think in time when people are doing weird things like quintuple, and you, Shelly will be remembered as a legion."
6.0,"I almost forgot about that quote myself."
3X4 said " I won't forget" and finished the rest in his thoughts (about you).
6.0, "Good, so please keep up the good work."
After 3X4 hang up the phone he was still in a day dream mode. Whenever he hears 6.0's voice, his world is brighter, the pain of the quint is less. How could he forget the two times this season that he completed the
3X4, once in SA, right after 6.0 teased him about , "Wow are you really going to try that." The other time was Cleveland, and he knew 6.0 was in the same competition. Even Lori his choreographer noticed that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6.0 was experiencing too many emotions, the video tape shook her up, not just the heart breaking part, but she realized that she never knew about it. She called Frank, cancelled the weekend practice, and packed an overnight bag, left her cell phone in the dorm and drove to visit her grandparents.
Her grand parents were thrilled to see her. She asked them about their experience in WWII, have they heard about the Nanking massacre.
Grandpa," Little Shan Shan, that was so long ago, we came to the States, started a new life, so sorry that we did not tell you and your sibs too much about it. We have practically forgot about it until..........."
Tears came into 6.0's eyes. Her grandma quickly embraced her and said, "Don't cry my precious, we love your young man, and if he is going to be part of our family someday you must believe that we will love him the same way we love you, you must believe that."
6.0, " I was not crying about that, I just need some time to take this in."
Grandma, ' Take all your time, now my little Shan Shan is visiting , I must cook her favorite dishes, I wish your sibs are here."
" Grandma you just gave me an idea, I am going to call R the great, and ask him to go to the public rink and skate with me." 6.0 was all smiles.
To 6.0's surprise, her brother agreed.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #9 had a hard time reaching 6.0, he tried to call, at first the phone was busy, then there was no answer. #9 tried to call her parents w/o success. He finally found the coach. Frank told him, he thought 6.0 was with him.
Frank," If she is not with you, I guess she could be joining her parents at Seatle then. Her parents were going to Seatle this weekend, and at first she said she would not go back to Lake A, and just practice here in El Segundo. Good luck finding her."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To his surprise #9 was relatively calm when he heard the word Seatle. Yes they have came a long way since 12/99. He still regrets slamming down the phone on her and making her so upset that she cried herself to sleep. He sigh................, and wished if they could only have more time togther and really get to know each other in a deeper level. She has the most beautiful mind, #9 wanted to explore all of it. He thought, after the season, but he knew when his season ends,her COI tour begins. #9 resolved to find the time and opportunity.
"Even if I have to kidnap her away from the tour."
His housekeeper, "Who is kidnapping who?"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Disclaimer, my knowlege of the Nanking massacre is limited to reading an abstract about it in Reader's Digest, and watching an one hour special in the history channel. We have a resident history professor, so please feel free to correct me. Thanks.

[eilaram]

"Remembered as a legion"
Did you mean to say this?
If you did, please explain.

[littlepebbles1]

Great story SF! One thing though, your ------ dividers stretched the screen a bit.

Speaking of stretching the screen, how did my personal pic get so big? Is there any way I can change that or will it be like that permanently?

[skatingfan]

Sorry guys, I mean "legend", that was what MK's said when she was 16. I don't think the dividers stretched
the screen, b/c it was stretched at least on my screen before I post my message. LP, I actually love the enlarged Delmore pic. Another weird thing, I used to be able to edit the post, but they won't let me do that anymore why? Do you have the same problem?

[mano]

GMTA skatingfan (and great story BTW). Where the h*ck did the "edit" feature go?!? I won't be posting anymore stories if that thing doesn't come back (not that I have anything new yet). But I need the EDIT button, somebody bring back the edit button. I will sacrifice the emoticons feature to have the edit button back.

Anywho, just interesting words I picked up in Mighty Ducks articles of late from OC Register I think. Saw their win a few days ago described as "winning ugly" a la Mike Penner's take on MK's win. Also said that Duck's won't get any "Charity" at home. Just weird is all.

[eilaram]

Thanks for the clarification skatingfan. I am looking forward to the continuation, so please do not let the lack of the edit feature stop you...

I searched the web for other skaters' birthdays and here are what I found:

Maria Butyrskaya - 6/28/72 (She's also a Cancer!)
Irina Slutskaya - 2/9/79 (Aquarius)
Sarah Hughes - 5/2/85 (Taurus)
Sasha Cohen - 10/26/84 (Scorpio)

I checked the forecast of their year at:

astrologyzone.go.com/
(http://astrologyzone.go.com/
)
You can interpret it anyway you want. I have my own interpretation but I'm not going to share. I'm waiting to see how accurate it is at the Worlds.

[littlepang]

great story skating fan...!!

actually something happened today in HK, that sorta ties in with the story.
Some construction workers found a warhead(500pounds of explosives) in Jordan(somewhere near Tsim Sha Tsui) and the cops had to evacuate thousands of ppl in the block(including shops and a couple apartment bulidings)..the area is still closed(been 10hrs already)..and there's major traffic jam..

ne-hoo..just thought u wanted to know..

[skatingfan]

Littlepang, always nice to hear from you. Actually Mano gave the inspiration for this history thing. MK is taking medieval history just one course at UCLA this quarter. Mano was excited about the possibility that MK is learning Scottish hisotry BTW we all know #9's mother is Scottish. Mano then wished MK would learn Japanese history, so here, MK fiction wise learnt a small part Japanese and Chinese history.

I hope the war head situation is diffused now, was it something left over from WWII?

[mano]

The PK Yahoo club has a topic that says pretty much that Paul Kariya has a girlfriend. Right now it's all "I know a regular at the Duck's games who says he's dating an ex-girlfriend who happens to be a model." Then there was one who knows the Ducks Radio commentator who says it's true. Dang it all, that sucks major, excuse my French. One person did say that unless one sees PK with said girlfriend, then the poster will believe. Who knows, PK could be an expert at hiding all this stuff.

[mano]

I don't believe in that stuff at all, but just checked out PK's sign for fun. He's a libra right?

Here's the link, and by golly, there's that "baby" thing again. Regarding the lovelife, Michelle Kwan has to either get blue eye contacts or become a computer geek. Either or. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)">

[chemy]

Ahem, Mano. You need to activate EZBoard's BFFF-ProofReader features. Some critical parts are missing from your quote:
"I know a regular at the Duck's games who says he's dating a sexy-girlfriend who happens to be a role model from UCLA."

Where's Yingshan, Kjesse or Akemichan--those who can verify the latest vicious rumor? Is it Bubble bursting time?

Apologies to Photo.com

Great Job Skatingfan.

[littlepang]

oh no...... this is bad news.. ..how can he..?

ps. skatingfan, yup it was a remain from WWII. but no harm done.. after 10 hrs of defusing the thing..some construction worker then confessed that they actually dug it up 3 days ago..and it was cracked up already..i even went to somewhere near the area to have a haircut today...=P

[kjesse]

Hi all. Bummer news about PK. I suppose it could be true but I've heard nor seen anything to back it up. Alas I am not one who go to many games or sees PK around town so I can't put any fears to rest.

What happen to the person who was going to the Ducks games at the beginning of the season and posting reports? Remember, wasn't it the person who supposedly driving next too, or following him from Tustin Marker Place? I don't recall her posting for some time now.

I'll go along with "I won't believe it till I see it".
Why does it always have to be models? :-(
