the first bit is adam on the passengers album. i'm a sparkyholic, so...

second bit: my friend Meesh said that about Larry one night, when we were really buckled and it cracked us up!

last bit: that's what Bono said about Cardboard Adam when I asked him about it!

Me: '-Bono! Do u have Cardboard Adam in the studio?
Bono: 'Yeah! Actually, he does more work than the real one!
 
well

Lemon= the tune I was playing on the stereo when I signed up and was thinking of a screen name+that I have a mad Obsession with the Popmart Lemon wich is supercool.

Boy=The first album of U2 and by big coincidence a hint to my gender....

------------------
"PLEBA Mansion Bootler"

"Lemons, the chicks- they love the lemon"
-Bono in Rotterdam-

"Proud member of the U2 gender"
 
Sooorrry!

I was watching TV as I was writing and totally misunderstood the topic!!

anyway...

part 1 is the title of occupation the wonderful girls of PLEBA gave me

part 2 is a qute from Bono from a Rotterdam Popmart concert just before EBTTRT

part 3 is an expression that was floating around PLEBA wich I picked up and stole!

btw I took me a long time to actually find something cool to put in my sig!

"PLEBA Mansion Bootler"

I don?t even remember what is in mine since I never check the ?show sig? box. Lol. Err, I think it?s a quote by Bono that makes me laugh, links to my pics of the U2 sites in Dublin, my U2 concert pix and European travel photos, and a phrase in Dutch which should (if DrTeeth translated right for me) say ?I am woman, hear me roar.?

2. I just thought of it one day..............

3. HAHAHAHHA, I love Bono!! SO WITTY.

One of my fav U2 songs is "The Fly" from Achtung Baby, so that's one of the reasons, *I* wanted Mrs. Clayton, but someone already had it LOL j/k. I just wanted my sig to be a U2 song or somehow U2 related, since I'm a HUGE fan of U2. Even when I'm on hotmail or some other BB totally unrelated to U2, I want my sig to be U2 related. And of course, it gets me closer to Bono LOL. 2002 is pretty self explantory LOL. Can't help it, I'm U2 obsessed!!!!!

Mine have been coming from me mum lately. The latest one is from when our car had something stuck in the tire and when we got home she told my father 'the car was rattle and humming' and I think we were either listening to Rattle and Hum that morning or it right before the car started 'rattle and humming'


Another one I think I had was about Adam. She was in my room using my computer and I was sitting next to her to make sure she didn't blow the thing up and it was quiet and a pic of Adam was in front of me, and out of no where I said, "Ma, Bono says Adam's instrument holds mysterious powers of womenfolk." and she said, "yea let me see..." I was shocked and showed her the naked adam pic. My mother...she has come up with some pretty random things.

well, let's see...

1. my office in willyville...although i'm told not to quit my day job

2. my dad = horrible pun machine...the words "shut up dad" come out of my mouth often

3. lies and i were driving and my drivers side window almost fell out of the car while we were traveling at quite a speed. i, being spawned of the bad pun machine, burst out into song, and lies joined right in. this was the fruits of our labor.

4. *evil grin* heh heh heh

My interpretation of Walk On lyric line (kind of my philosophy: since who is to judge lest ye be judged, we all make mistakes and no one should be cold to another, since we're all a reflection of one another)...with the special addition POE made since 9/11.

I wanted to keep it simple.

I change mine a lot too... this current one is just a lyric from the Alice in Chains song Dont Follow - after Layne Staley died, I'm a big fan of his.

Say Goodbye, Don't Follow.

Rest in Peace Layne.
 
I'm another semi-frequent sig changer... but currently:

1 - one of my favorite lyrics from REM's Reveal

2 - A line from Il Postino

I don't post my sig much because it's a bit on the long side... I need to re-vamp it.

However... it kinda speaks for itself, I guess.

I'm of the Larry persuasion, so most of it's from Larry moments.
biggrin.gif
There a couple of Larry quotes and the sign I held up in Las Vegas and LA3 is also quoted. The "Hit Gurl" came crom Larry's shirt during Popmart - Hit Man... I'm a fledgling drummer and hey, it kinda stuck.

Mwahaha I thought it was just completely random. It gives me a big smile every time.

Me... I need a new sig.... The what's a Bono quote is from Mona's Abuela. It's seems like a perfectly reasonable question to me. Sometimes I just pause and think "Bono???".

Part I: When Lilly made the wonderful batch of U2 cookies for the MPLS Grammy party, complete with all four boys faces, and I quickly claimed the Mesh-wearing Larry. I was gonna keep it forever, but in the morning he was in the fridge staring right back at me lookin yummy(like always) I just had to eat it...

Part 2: Sula, Lilly and I were at Sulas planning PLEBA convention 2002 and watching PopMart Mexico city. Just as WOWOY was climaxing (you know, the part where you're sitting at the edge of yer seat with drool coming down your chin and your fingernails digging into the chair whilst he does his LUUUUVLY falsetto Oooohing) Lilly and Sula strike up a convo about "spongy parichimic tissure" or some biochemist crap. And I screamed out the quote you see below you.

Proud owner & lover *munch munch*(of the now late) Larry cookie

"SHHHH!!! Bono is HOO-ing!"

My sig comes from one of my all time favorite rock album :The Rolling Stones'"Exile on Main Street". It's from the opening track "Rock's Off", and I'm a night owl so it represents me well.

The link under it is shameless promotion.

i think i used 'she is the dreamer, she's imagination' (lemon is my fave zooropa song)forever but then i decided to change it (i think someone else is using it).

i also used 'bassplayers have the weirdest fans' which is an edgie quote from the flanagan book. i think that one is pretty funny!

still waiting on bonochick!
