Preface.

    Welcome to the Book of Quas Online, the "Bible" of the Scranger mindset. This book, written between October 1996 to February 1997, captured the peak of Team Quas, also known as the "Scrubs", half of the original Scranger coalition. It was 200 pages handwritten by 10 people. There was plenty of input on each persons entrees by anyone who had an opinion. For this version of the book, each original author will be represented by a different font and color. Translated by Atraiu Guzie 2001.

The Beginning.

Guz : 10/23/96 Per. 3 - Yesterday morning Trev's mom picked me up and I fell asleep on "my bed" (The Pierogee). Crys couldn't take us to school, so we hitched a ride with Brad. Trevor didn't have the car so after school, since we had a JV game, we walked home and used Brad's key to get in then went right back to school since we had a pre-game practice at 3:30. Coach Guman was a total ass. I was only in on kickoff and return, and for 4 S.E. plays, Trev didn't even get on the field. We lost the game, and afterwards we were going to go out to meet. But instead of going out to eat we went to Natasha's house. We hid behind the bushes because we were afraid Mom3 would be mad at us being there so late. But she was laughing and asked what we were doing. Yoshi thought she looked horrible without her make-up, but she didn't. I put on N's dress [Wedding Picture]. Then we stole her mints [Beginnings of Altoids] and I took 50 cents. Then we went home. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97"- Sept. 15, 1996 "Quasi's little dive on the way to Meck's. Kinda kicked that pipes ass!"  That would be in reference to the time we made plans to go to laser tag. It was me, Trev, Trout, Katie M. and Mandy. We couldn't go straight to her house (Mandy's) because of construction so we took the back way past Godusky's house. We stopped by to pick him up but he couldn't go. So we continued to Mandy's and I thought I was the shit and could find my way right to her house the back way. Well that didn't seem to work as I thought. I had passed her road, so I tried to turn into the driveway of some place there but I did not slow fast enough and I completely left the road. The Quas was actually air born. When we did land, I looked back to see that I had crushed a pipe that went under the driveway. I stopped behind the IGA for a damage assessment. I broke my left front blinker and bent my front bumper down. A piece of grass and mud stuck to the rear bumper was saved and dubbed "The Sacred Grass" by Trout. -Guz

Necky: {Remembrance} During the summer we always went to Denny's. We went there so many times, that they knew us and knew what we wanted. When we walked in the door, they were waiting for us and asked us if we wanted the same. The two best waitresses were "The Little One" and "Number 1." One time Guz took one of my tomatoes and attempted to throw it across the room and through some blinds into the next room. He is such a goofball. He attempted it 3 times. On the 3rd try, he finally got it through. -Necky

Necky: {Remembrance}  Another time, actually one of the first times we went to Denny's, we got the best waitress. Not really. She was big and she had an accient (Not spelled correctly). She once wore this white Denny's shirt (which was OK), but she wore this black bra. You could see it so clearly. It looked stupid. She also said syrup wrong. She pronounced it "sorrup." That is how we came up with the name for Denny's. We don't call it Denny's anymore. It's now called "sorrup." Now when we get a new waitress or waiter we ask him to say "syrup" just to make sure that he is not a "fruit" like she was. We made fun of that lady so much that we think she quit. -Necky

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" - Friday, September 20, 1996 "Sleep over at Trev's without asking" Yes, I did effectively commit suicide by that little move, being grounded for a week starting on that Sunday, but on sat we had football practice, played some football, and bought the Playstation. The guy at EBX just kept saying you need this and this and this and we kept dishing out money. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Sun. Sept. 29th '96 "Necky Football '96 -Guzie Macarena and Hoover." My first day back from punishment was my first dose of Necky football for the current season. I have a tradition of creating special things that I do during the game that get named. For instance - the first was the "Guzie Spin" which I first used during last season of Necky football, In which I was quarterback and was rushed by the defense. I had a sort of slow motion spin move which always seemed to avoid tackles. Then I invented "The Rabid Snake" in which I run in a zig zag pattern, then cut either in or out, which seems to be unstoppable if the quarterback can keep from laughing too much. The "Guzie Macarena" refers to a move when I'm running with the ball I stop in front of the defender and cut parallel back and forth until the defender falls over or commits to one side. The hoover refers to an unrecreatable play in which Scriptunas seemed to have tackled me but somehow I stayed up, hopping on one cleat, and scored. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Wed. Oct 2nd '96 "Operation Alpha Eagle - got turn signal" My car being 2 days late for inspection now we decided (me and Trevor) to go and get a turn signal off one of Quasi's "sisters" in Smeltsy's junk yard. Well, it was closed for the day, but we needed the place for inspection. The blinker was worse than it was after the drive on the way to Mandy's because after we lost one of our footballs games on Fri. night (which was the night I slept over at Trev's without asking) We went to Friendly's Trexlertown w/ Trev, Godusky, Morton, Garrett, and Jay. The Katies had to be home early, so Jay took them. I was mad about the loss and the fact that we weren't going to have a JV game Monday because we had so many injured players. So I made the parking lot into an obstacle course for Quasimodo, which was fun and then I purposely ran into a shopping cart against a concrete light poll. I put a huge dent in the side of the car and finished off the turn signal. So anyway, we created "Operation Alpha Eagle." A fancy way of saying hop over the fence on the other side of the junk yard at the end of Arch St. So the next morning I took the car in for inspection at Randy's. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Thur. Oct. 3rd '96 "Took in Quas for insp. - Saw Natasha at work- Necky got a haircut, checked Quas, had a bash at South Mall trying on masks, Necky got in trouble for not telling his mom where he was. Threw away Natasha's ring from Matt Stein. 'If you guys are here to make trouble, leave.'" Pretty much speaks for itself. I owed N another ring for throwing hers away. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Sat Oct. 5th '96 "Gabe and Alia's 'Toga' party - 35 pretzels, Necky breaks his foot." -Yes, it was supposed to be a toga party and me, Scriptunas, and Godusky wore togas and had to run home and change when we realized how freezing it was. Trev severely sprained his ankle after I stuffed him on a B-ball shot- and I put 35 pretzels in my mouth at once, beating Trout's 25! -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Wed. Oct. 9th " The Decommissioning of Ol' Quas" A sad day in the history of Quasimodo, because of a progress report all privileges regarding my overpowered '77 Chevy Caprice were revoked, lowering me to a mere pedestrian {"A day that will live in infamy! -Guz"} " - Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Sat Oct. 12 "Nintendo 64 - Steal Quas and get caught cause of mega surveillance. 1st powderpuff practice. Deny bowling for a video game. I'm an ace" Yes, the day we were introduced to the new Nintendo, which was awesome, but the only problem with that was that I pissed off my friends Garrett and Morton because we said we were going bowling and we stopped off at Blockbusters (the home of the new 64) for 30 minutes, except for the 10 me, Trev, and Yoshi had allotted. I'm an ace, is just a different way of saying that I am an ass. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Wed Oct 16th "Godusky's dad denied us." After we got our "Discount Wednesday" from Kernzy at Weis's (in which all baked goods are 65 cents), we stopped off at Godusky's house to talk. We walked up to the porch to see that you can see into their living room through a window by the door. Godusky's dad was sitting in the chair, and his mom walked by. Me and Trev rang the bell and waited for 5 minutes. We looked at Justin's dad and he just sat there. We knocked and began cracking up after another five minutes. We left with his dad still sitting there and by crawling under the window's view and went to Trev's (our house) to find that Justin and Byrd were there and leaving. Justin later explained to us that his parents thought he was out there talking to us and did not here us knock or ring. But at the time I was laughing so hard it hurt, as I always yell at Yoshi for saying. - Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Sun Oct 13th - Necky Football " Oooh, that's gotta hurt - rumblin, bumblin, stumblin." This is when I caught the ball and was running and was wrapped up by someone. Garger kneed me in the head and I said "that hurts" and half consciously bull rushed my way into the endzone. -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Mon Oct 14th " Powder Puff practice. JV game denied corner by Guman. Operation Alpha Eagle = Tire/ Grill. 'The whole league is gonna take cheap shots' Burger King (the Zigurat) guy closes window and gives 18 napkins, 7 ketchups, and 4 salts for a whopper, Arby's to Necky's in a minute and a half. JV kicked ass - Pizza for team." -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Fri Oct 18th "Me, Greg, Trev, & Bucky visit Yoshi, Bucky buys me BK, Meet Ken Matthews." -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Sat Oct 19th "Game rained out - 'Blacky' - Denied by Mom3 'I'm the mom, and I make the rules' Also gave N the golf ball ring that we found in Freedom at the JV game" -Guz

Guz: {Remembrance} from "School Agenda 96-97" Sunday Oct 20th " Work - Necky football, rain day, powder puff practice." N wore my ring to work and if she wears if for a month I have to buy her a real ring." -Guz

Guz: 10/24/96 - 12:47am I finally finished copying my school agenda into this book. This morning I fell asleep in my bed at Necky's. I clashed today for clash day, I wore an "Old School" Eagles beanie, a dress shirt, sweat pants, one real sock and one dress sock, my dress boot, and my other Penn State shoe. But Steckle kicked my ass with his clashing, I got some detentions for being late to Mrs. Hahns's class after lunch, which I had to reschedule not to clash with football. It seems the entire team hates Guman now, instead of just me and Necky. After practice we had the GC football night. Then me and Necky went to my house so I could pick up some money to buy a suit for the formal. My Dad said he would let me use his stuff, but he let me go with Trev to pick up his suit and shoes. Speaking of  shoes, I showed Trev the shoes I had and he bought the same pair! Then we came back here and went down to my Grams and talked to Natasha on the speakerphone of my computer, and I told her that the computer was my Dad. Then I started writing my agendas into this book. -Guz

 K8: 10/24/96 {Remembrance} - 7/28/96 This summer is one for the memory books {Hmmm? What is this book about!? -Guz}, but that Saturday night was the most memorable (besides Dorney) for me. Trevor and Trout had been away at football camp all week and I realized how much I'd be giving up if I didn't stay with Trevor. The Thursday night that he got home I went to Necky's house and told him so. Well I guess I wasn't to convincing, b/c the next night I went out with a bunch of guys instead of spending time w/ Trev & Guz. They forgave me though, so I had them over on Sat. night. I knew I was leaving for vacation w/ KTG the next day, so it was important that we were together. We all played pool (I beat both of them) {You may have beaten me, but no one will ever call a better pool shot ever! -Guz} then we ate brownies in the Gazeter. It sounds stupid, but it wasn't. I kicked Guzie out, so Trev & I could be alone, and we kissed. I had been wanting to for awhile, but that was when the time was right. the next time we saw each other he was ready to break up with me. My conclusion is that I must be a bad kisser. -K8 {Scrip underlined the must and bad in the last sentence, implying that Morton is a bad kissed -Scrip}{Cute Scrip! as if you'd know - K8}{Trevor asks "what is an ipiicle", referring to Morton's sloppy 'you'd' in her comment -Necky}{I think its "you'd", Trevor -Kat} {The Book Of Quas is no place for petty fights! -Guz}

K8: 10/24/96 {Remembrance} April/May '96 I know this dates back further then this past summer, but it's so funny. I'll never forget the night that Guz and Trev went to Young Life w/ KTG & me. You 2 were so uncomfortable. When KTG came home she couldn't help laughing too. When Guz went to take Kat's hand he nearly broke her arm with the strength he used.{Get my point of view on that on pg. 38 -Kat}{and mine on 41. -Guz} Kelly said you're not like that though, anymore. I don't know which is worse, Kel knowing or being like that. :) !{Kelly Knowing -Guz}

Guz: 10/28/96 - 10:20am Last week, being homecoming week was extremely packed and very memorable. Thursday was the parade and powder puff night, Friday was the pep rally and the Homecoming Game, and finally Sat. was the Homecoming Dance. Then on Sun. I worked, then played football. All of this stuff must be explained in detail, but I can't write now cause I am in World Studies! - Guz

Guz: 10/24/96 - 1:17am in T.S. O.K., I'll go chronologically and start with thurs. After our shortened practice at the stadium with "the yellow bags" we had mums for mom in the Jr. High Caf. I didn't have anything to eat cause I missed the practice where we paid for our meals. My mom wasn't there, so "Big Heads" mom gave me a hug! Necky's mom wasn't there either because he never called to tell her where and when it was. After that Me, Godusky, and Byrd went to Byrd's house to get Walkie-Talkies for "scouting the defenses" at the powder puff game. We had to stop at CVS to get batteries and when we got to the school the parade had already left so we ran from the school all the way to the Fire Station! We hoped on the back of Green's truck and he went psycho because there were too many people and we were breaking his Broncho. After the parade we walked to the stadium to get ready for the powder puff game. The girls were all there, so we decided that would be a good time to show them all how to play defense! We did and the games began. Our first and only full game was against the infamous "Jock" team. I was talking to Ermentrout who was up in the box with the W.T.'s. Godusky and Trev decided and ran in the plays. We had a few scores taken back on penalties. Alia had a great running game. The game was scoreless in the end and went into overtime, which is four plays from 10 yards out. After they started with the ball and three turnovers later,  we scored on a pass from Morton to Mandy. Then we played the squashmore team until halfway through the game the sore losers from the other junior team started yelling that we had an illegal player. They we speaking of course of Katie G. So we were disqualified from the competition and the winless Guch team played the undefeated senior team, figures! They lost in O.T. by a point, just like they did to us. We may have beaten them, but we won't know. The Moral? If you are going to cheat make it worthwhile and don't get caught! Because we didn't have Garrett on the team for a tactical advantage, we had her for friendship reasons. Everybody was pissed off, and they were all glad to sleep that night, I'm sure! - Guz.

Guz: 10/29/96- 9:39 in T.S.  Last friday at one o'clock was the pep rally for the Liberty game.  Considering that Liberty was winnless we figured that we should beat them.  Reitinour guaranteed the victory.  The pep rally was cool just like last year.  After, we had a detention and then went to McDonalds to visit Natasha and got something to eat.  Then was the game.  At half-time it was 3-nothing them, and they won 15-8 with Heath having the score.  Afterwards me, Trev, Script, and J went  to the Zigurat, but I wasn't really into it.  I went home and to bed.  In the morning I was woke up around 11:45 by Natasha's phone call.  I ate and went to the Trexlermall to get a haircut for the dance.  Trev met me there and got a haircut as well.  We stopped off at my house to get my suit, then went to Trevs to get ready.  Trevor was going out to eat w/ Natasha and I was going out to eat with Mandy and Morton and Godusky.  Since Trev wasn't ready J took me to Katie's.  The four of us got pictures and then went to Red Lobster.  I ordered the Shrimp Feast.  When the waitress came to get our order I sent her away to get more rolls.  I love those damned things.  The waitress messed up my order so I got an extra shrimp scampi.  I ate Katie's and Mandy's shrimp too.  I saved my rolls and put them in the back of Godusky's car, which smelled the whole thing up.  Then we went to the dance.  It was  a lot of fun.  Everybody looked so nice.  But it was extremely hot in the gym.  After the dance we went to Morton's.  I threw two of the rolls in the microwave for me and Justin.  We played pool and then went to Natasha's to sleep over. - Guz.

Scrip: 10/30/96 {Remembrance} The first time I saw The Quas.  we went to the Allentown fair.  Trout, Trev, Guz, KM, me and maybe others were there.  The dork you throw the balls at said "You can't fix that mess honey" to you know who.  When Guz, Trev, and me were left Guz went on the "suicide".  He passed on a couple good women.  We also had the Jenny poster hunt where we spent many dollars on that dart game to get Jenny, but we failed.  We went to the Yocco stand.  A girl in a black hat working there seemed to have an interest in one of us.  We sent each person on a walk to see if she turned.  When Trev walked behind her, she pulled the head turn.  Guz and I went crazy. -Scrip

Scrip: 10/30/96 Guz ripped a big one when we were buying the Playstation.  One day after a football practice The Quas went directly from the parking space to the road.  Also that day we bought the Playstation we looked for a "Foghorn". -Scrip

Necky: 10/31/96  Scrip and I though of a great plan for our future.  Him and I and 2 other people, (maybe 3), get an apartment near Penn State.  All 4 or 5 of us can get jobs.  Scrip and I are going to be Garbage Men.  It will be so much fun living together.  Whenever we get bored of Penn State, we will move anywhere in the U.S.  Scrip figured out all the calculations.  We can do it without a problem.  People in the school will think it is crazy, but it will work. - Necky

Necky: 10/31/96  It's a Thursday and we are going to practice today.  I know it is a surprise, but we are.  for the past 2 days we havent gone to practice.  the first day, which was Tuesday, it was Guz, Scrip, and I.  Yesterday, it was Guz, Scrip, Lowe, and I.  Guzie, Scrip, and I went to the "Corral" on Tuesday.  Guzie put more than a quarter of pitcher down in 43 seconds.  He was about to throw up.  On Wednesday, we all played football. - Necky

Guz: 11/1/96 10:00am T.S.  Last night was Halloween, and Trev, Trout, and I went trick or treating per se.  We had 8 water balloons and 2 eggs. We randomly picked our first house and threw water balloons at it and ran, positioned ourselves in the graveyard opposing  Anit-whores and bombed it w/ heuros which made the most awesome sound.  We ran down, through the graveyard, to a street in which a house had a sign saying take 2.  Me and Trout split all the candies and then split.  We went to Don's Black Market to get some eggs.  Then we spotted some trick or treaters on rollerblades.  I was going to run by and take their candy so I turned my hat inside out ( my trademark for disguising my identity) and ran by them like I was a runner, but the kids were wearing backpacks so I just ran by them and regrouped w/ the guys.  The kids went into Necky's circle and we shot eggs at them.  Then cops came into the spot looking for us w/ spotlights.  We ran to the ditch of the river and saw the cop on the other street.  We threw eggs at a couple of cars and the packed it in. -Guz

Mandy: 11/5/96 {Remembrance}  Hey guys, Soo.... I have to think all the way back to this past summer.  For me though I guess that won't be hard to do considering the way my summer went.  But of course; the times I spent w/ you guys was just great!!  Especially when Katie, Greg, Guzie, Trevor and I went to play lazor tag & Trevor shot me 11x & I only shot him once.  (Oh Well.)  Skimming through parts of this book; I finally know why you guys had that piece of grass in the Quas.  Ya guy are nuts!!  Oh yeah, we can't forget the time Katie and I were at Trevor's house and the three of us including Guzie all decided to take a walk.  I can't remember the story exactly but Guzie was repeating a story and saying it really loud as a car was driving by w/ it's top down.  We thought they had heard what he said because the car stopped and it seemed like it was going to turn around, but it didn't.  It was so funny; that all of us were practically crying.  Remember???  Well, I guess this is all I'll write in here for now.  Trev: You still owe me a game of pool! - Mandy

Guz: 11/7/96 - Thurs. 8:55 English class - Last friday we had a shortened practice after school, so afterwords Trevor and I went to pick her up. When we got there, her mom was out grocery shopping, so we had to wait there till she got back. Me and Trev ate much of the kids candy. I aslo took another can of mints when we left. When we got to Trev's, Jay, Bird, Godusky, and Scrip were already there. While J and Bird were playing a game, Godusky, Scrip, Trev and I were all wrestling for over a half hour.. Then Godusky went to pick up Gabe. We had a series of one on one wrestling matches behind the couches. Godusky stopped back with Gabe before they want out. Me and Scrip went outside and played a game in which someone has a football and tries to get in the "endzone," which was convienant because there was a shadow in the backyard which makes a perfect endzone, and the other one tries to stop them. It was fun as hell but we kicked the hell out of each other And got all muddy. Then I beat Jay at Madden while Trev took Yoshi home. Then I beat Scriptunas twice on 4 and goals from the 1 as time expired. Then Trev took us home. The next morning I woke up, ate some breakfast, and went to the Whitehall game. Well, after we got shut out, we got home and Yoshi was already there. We went to the Brass Rail to eat with Jay, and he had some awesome halloween mask. Also one of the weekend nights me, Trev and Yoshi watched First Knight and another time we went to the Zigurat but I can't remember when. Monday we had our J.V. game which was O.K.. I caught a first down pass on a L91 and I was wide open on another L91 but Wilsker through incomplete to the otherside. Also they called a waggle on a time-out and Guman gave Scrip the nod to go in. Scriptunas said No and me to stay in, Guman gave Guman gave him a more forcefull nod. He said "Come on, let Guz in!" Guman said "Get in there" and I just walked off the field. After the game we went up to N's after we got kicked out at the Zigurat. I took her Grease tape and her sleeping bag. I took the tape because I am in love with Olivia Newton-John. Then we went home. Tuesday we went home after school and played playstation. I beat Trout and Scrip, but then I played Brian again and he used some awesome defense comprised of "T. Law" and kicked my ass. I was demoralized. We dropped Scrip off on the way to McDonalds. We decided that Blacky needs a "time- out" that night for the week-end. Then we went to Burger King and then to "Hess's" South to reserve some dockers for the sale monday. Then home. Yesterday I went to practice and we got Oreos and soda from the bus driver. Because Trev didn't have the car, I went home early for once. This morning I had breakfast and now I am in WSH. I think we are going out after we get out at 11:00 - Guz

Guz: 11/7/96 - {Remembrance} "Cubans" - Guz

Guz: 11/8/96 - Friday 1:17 in T.S. After school yesterday me, Greg and Brian got a ride to the GC where we met Trev after he walked there. There was some weird kid in there who said Hi to us for no reason. We aquired some more essential for the Quas, such as a pitcher, some BBQ sauce, and a salt/pepper/sugar thing. Then we took a walk to Necky's house, we seemed long cause all of us had to shit. Then I went to sleep in my newly aquired sleeping bag, it was the best most comfortable sleep ever. Then we went to practice where Necky and Lowe couldn't get there uniforms for skipping practice this week. Ha, ha, they should have listened to me. The same thing would have happened to Scrip if he had gone, I suppose. After we got on the field Big Head came. He had gotten into a car accident where Minesite meets 222. He totaled his car but he was o.k. Then we had all the last day of practice stuff, like last hits and the burnings. Then I got a ride with Austin and Heath to the Spagetti Dinner and then to the wrestling meeting. I went to Trev's and beat the Redskins in the rain, then went home. Today in school I saw my English grade, so I don't think that Quas will be running in the near future. - Guz

Big head: 11/8/96 2:05 in SPANISH Yesterday I went to wash my car and vacume it out from all the leaves. When I got done cleaning it up I went home. When was driving home the wheel started to turn right and I could not turn  the car left. I hit the pole head on at 45m.p.h. I was alright my head was bleeding pretty bad. My mom said it is alright you hated the car anyway. I'm glad it saved my life. Someone wanted me to stick around. I went to my Mom's office, she works for brain people. Then I went up to my Mom's friends office and I got plastic skin for my forehead. Then I went home and went to football where Guzie squeezed my ass which I squeezed back. I'm looking for a new car now. - Big Head

This is one of the stickers that we got from Ken Matthews when we went to Kelly Mitsubishi! - Guz {Nice Cover up Guz - Necky}

Guz: 11/9/96 Saturday 9:40 in Sat. Morning Detention. After school yesterday Me and Trevor had detention and then got a ride home from Lowe. We played Madden and then we went to Yocco's to get something to eat. We had 2 buy 3 get 1 free coupons btu could not seem to convey the message to the tellers. So they asked us to pull up to the pick-up window so they could see our tickets, I mean coupons.They took our order there as we were overly loud in telling them. Then the guy said "Have a nice day" and gave us the food. Trev didn't know what to do considering they never give you the food before you pay. The guy walked away so we just left! We went home and got a call from the Katies saying they couldn't go out, but we could go to Morton's house. Scriptunas was supposed to be there already but he wasn't, and we called him to tell him we were going to the Katies. He didn't believe me and Trev said we were going bowling. So he came over, so he came with us to her house. When I got there they reminded me that I had forgotten to pick up the soda they asked. Garrett "reimbursed" me for the soda and me and Godusk went to pick up the goodies. Justin was blabbing to Gabe as I got all the stuff. I also picked up some Oaks substitute glasses. We came back and played a football/endzone game for a while. Then we put a mirror on the floor, and even though we are Juniors, we were amused by it! Then we went upstairs to watch "Pulp Fiction." During the movie, Scrip asked me if he should get the mirror, I told him it couldn't be done. Ohh! He did it! He's good! KTG borrowed my jersy to wear to her school on Mon, and we went home. This morn. I got to use the Quas to come to practice and detention. And now I am done writing this and I have nothing to do. - Guz

Guz: 11/11/96 Monday in T.S. After Detention I drove Quas home. My mom and my sister and I went to the Chicken Lounge where I had a Black Gold steak. Then we went to see "Ransom." It was a really exciting movie. Then we came home and I got a ride to Trev's. He didn't have a car so we walked to the South Mall to get something to attach our new mirror to the wall. That night we watched the Tyson fight, and I got a 5$ reduction from my entrance fee for streaking from Don's Black Market to Trev's. Some girl in a pick up honked and yelled something. Then we watched Moorer beat "The fat boy wearing a sheep skin." And Holifield won! {Bullshit - Trout}Then everyone went home and I went to sleep on my couch bed w/ my sleeping bag. - Guz

Necky: 11/14/96 {Remembrance} Well, It's not really a remembrance, because it was on Sunday. We played Necky football. It was awesome. We had so many poeple, we had to make 3 teams. My team did really good. We won all five of our games. Leh and Lowe both dove for a pass and flew into the bushes. One play I remember on Sunday was when Katie caught the ball. Katie Garrett missed the tackle. So I had to tackle her. I didn't know if I wanted to dive at her feet or push her. I was undecided so I gave her a shoulder. I really didn't mean to hit her hard. I swear, but I did. She almost hit her head on the Sewer Cap. I would have felt bad. After I hit her I walked away. I look at Scrip. Scrip loved it. He was clapping and laughing. Nothing else really happened at football. Then we got showers (Guz and Me), and then went to the movie with Katie and Katie. We went to see "Romeo and Juliet." It was confusing, for me. Everybody else liked it. Guz and Garrett were holding hands. He was nervous. Katie Morton had to bumb him to tell him to do it. I love it! I hope they go out. She was also wearing his jacket and sharing soda. They look perfect together. - Necky 

Necky: 11/14/96 /Thursday 9:51/ On Friday, Scrip, Godusk, Guz and I went over to Katie's house(Morton). Katie Garrett was there. Guz was happy. We got there at about 7:30. First we played pool for a little bit, then I got everone to play football. We got some carpets, and other mats to put on the cement floor so we didn't get hurt. We still got hurt, it didn't work! Then we went upstairs to watch "Pulp Fiction" I didn't watch it. I fell asleep on the floor. When I woke up Guz and Garrett were really close to each other. I saw him look down her shirt while she was watching the movie. He looked at me and smiled. He was drooling a little bit. {By the way, these three lines are total bullshit! The only reason it makes me mad is because it is something that I would actually do. -Guz} They didn't hold hands that night, but they looked cute together. We left at about 11:45. Scrip stole Morton's mirror. We have it in my downstairs bathroom.

K8: 11/14/96 /Thursday 4:04/ Play Practice / now its 4:24... I couldn't think about anything that would interest everybody, but now its Friday and the brain juices are flowing. I remember the night of hell @ Kelly's house. It was July 11, all-star-game night, and Trout, Me & Guz went to Kelly's house. Trev was supposed to come but he didn't b/c my parents weren't going to let me. It was torture. Guz found out the dreaded truth about "Honkers", and we were forced to watch home video vacation movies. Ahhh* As if it weren't bad enough, Kel broke the news about her wanting to "see other people." Whew, what a night. Good thing we got to go home @ 10:15. It was a late night. {The night my hell began - Trout}-- K8{How do you pronounce that? Kay-ate -Scrip}{Yes - didn't you know? That's what i go by now. -K8}

[On the side of this next passage there is an interlude between the oh-so-critical-of-Morton Scrip and Katie M. about the fact that she indents on both sides, as opposed to just one side like the other writers, it went something like this: {Look at at the waste! -Scrip}{Look at yourself -K8}{You have to be more resourceful in The Book of Quas. -Scrip}{Children! -Guz}.]

K8: 11/15 I was informed that my last entry was insuffecient. Here goes again. Last night I got home from play practice and called Trevor. He said that he wanted to see KTG's play, so he came and got me. We were already late, but Pokey took the time to wash the windshield at the gas station We had to go back to his house to get Guz, and of course that took 9 years. I felt right at home so I talked to Mom and Crystal {Stop living in your fantasy world -Scrip}{Grow up and move on Brian, Get out of my life -K8}.{Definite Children! -Kat} next was the drive to Guz's house. Never put your hand on the dashboard in Trevor's car. Well, the play was good, but the is on a one way road in no-where-ville. I snuck a note backstage so Katie knew we were there. Afterwords it was really cold, btu Trev let me in the car first. All-in-all it was great. It reminded me of last summer and made me realize that things are still good. I quess the moral of the play applies here, "A man with many good friends, is the richest man in the world." - K8

Kat: 11/17/96 {Remembrance} & Journal entry. Okay, this is my first time writing in here so I am a little nervous. Katie M. told me that I have to write legibally so I'll try my hardest. I'm hurt now, b/c KTM just told me that she loves Guz more than me. She doesn't want me to hurt Guz's feelings or confuse him, but I'm really not trying to. I'm just confused myself I guess. Anyways, oh yeah, the remembrance! Okay here's the whole "violent hand grab" story from my point of view: I remember that KTM talked Trev and Guz into coming to "Young Life" w/ us.. okay.. more like KTM convinced them to come.{No, Katie convinced me to got to Young Life, I had to invite Guz, nobody invited him. -Necky} They didn't look like they had much fun.{It definetly was an experience -K8} And yes, Guz did grab my hand somewhat aggressively, but it wasn't as bad as everyone, including myself, made it sound. And back then I didn't know Guz as well as I know him now. I think that then, it was the wrong time for us to be together & and its getting more and more right for us as I am around him more. I definitely feel much more comfortable around him them when we were going out. But then there's Jeremy. What can I say about Jeremy? Well, sometimes, he repulses me - a lot But other times he can be really sweet. I don't know. I don't want to go out w/ him and he's fully aware of this. He confuses me. Okay I'm sick of this subject now. [Due to KTG's horrible handwriting, Guz wrote: {@#$%^$%^$^&&$*(* -Guz} as a joke sidenote {Very funny Gooze! -Kat}] Lets talk about something else. Now, this is my personal opinion, I don't know who shares it w/ me but here goes: I think KTM and Trevor are perfect for each other! They just look cute together. She'll probably kill me for writing this but, it's just what I think. They were both so happy when they were going out. I just don't see it in Trev's face anymore. The other day I was looking at pictures from my party & there's one of KTM and Trev together. It's sweet. It makes me remember how pleasant it was to be around KT b/c she was happy w/ Trev. okay, now that my HAND IS KILLING ME FROM WRITING! I think I'll stop. It's been fun. Sorry my handwriting is so poor. I can't help it. -Kat {I am sorry Katie, but this book is restricted to English only! -Guz}{Shut up! -Kat}

Scrip 11/18/96 Yesterday at Necky football, most of the big guys that never played before came down. I thought it was stupid cause they didn't play offense. There was no challenge. The day before I had a huge fart spray incident which nauseated my mom to the point of diarrea. When Guz was sleeping in the best, most comfortable sleeping bag ever, I thought I would try to suffocate him. I used a pillow, it didn't work. I used these sweatpants, it didn't work. I used something else. Then I used an unbreathable plastic bag. He was immortal. He was still breathing. He used his tongue to try and poke a hole through the bag. After about 5 minutes, I let him out. - Scrip {I didn't tell anyone, but it was the sleeping bag that gave me my super powers!  -Guz}

Guz: {Remembrance} Well, now that everyone has a journal entry concerning "The Violent Hand Grab." {I didn't, but if you need another person to tell their opinion about Grab, I'll do it!. -Necky} I figured I might as well give my point of view, considering I am the violent grabber. Well, it had been a week before that that I had asked her out and I had been trying to get us to go out and do something, but either she had a date with someone else (ha ha ha), or they (KTM & KTG) couldn't go, or we couldn't get rides. {or they went to a "barn party". -Necky} Then Trev told me he was asked to go to some Young Life thing. I was mad that I wasn't asked to go, but I must have been asked later {you were asked by me!. -Necky} because obviously did, although I wish I hadn't. See, at the group there were a lot of people we didn't really know. Also everyone was singing songs that I didn't know the words too. {Do you want to hear something really funny, Listen to Guz sing songs at Young Life. He treid to sing. I give him some credit. -Necky} During one of the speeches I went to take her hand( Garrett's )  I must have been more nervous than I thought because I did grab it really fast. But Katie is right, it wasn't the right time for us then. See, I told Trev already about my 6th sense. I joke w/ him that I can always tell what's going on next in a relationship. After that night I told him the relationship wasn't going to last much longer, I was right cause Katie called me the next night to go back to being friends. I said that I thought it was a good idea, but at the time I didn't really want to break up with her. But that was only cause I liked her a lot, the truth was I was always uncomfortable around her, it was probably nervousness. Anyway my 6th sense has a perfect record so far. But that's not a good thing cause it always means that things are over. Like the night at Kelly's and before I went on vacation. -Guz

Guz:11/18/96 1:36 in TS  I had to switch over to a journal entry for the rest.  Right now my 6th sense is all screwed up.  when I'm around Garrett, I feel a connection, but she's seeing someone else and stuff.  I wouldn't want to take her away from Cheesum either, because it's not cool to have your girlfriend or whatever taken away.  I've only met him once for about 15 seconds after their play, but he seems like a nice guy.  But I also understand that he has asked her out a couple of times and she said no.  I don't know the whole story, so I'm not going to say anything else. -Guz

Guz: 11/18/96 Monday 2:10 in Spanish- I can't believe I haven't written in this since last Mon.  And that was about Sat!  Well, Trev wrote about Romeo & Julliet and by the way, I didn't take her hand violently!  Then Mon. night was the last varsity football game of the year.  I remember that it was freezing and no one really cared about the game, because we were getting our asses kicked.  It was funny, when George K. was told to go it, he ripped off one of those jackets we wear when its cold.  He had another one right under it.  His arms got all caught up and he get them off, it was so funny, I'll write later because I have wrestling now. -Guz

Guz:11/18/96 Monday 11:15pm in my bedroom- Well, after that football game, we went to the zigurat, took Tunis home and stopped by at KTM's house to talk for awhile, she was surprised to see us.  We didn't even knock, we just peeked in the window.  I talked to Garrett on the phone some but I had to go home.  Tuesday was the official first day of wrestling season.  Trevor is wrestling this year, which of course has nothing to do with me?  That morning I didn't want to go to school, in fact I told my dad I wasn't, but as I laid in bed I realized I didn't want to miss the first day.  Wrestling is alot easier this year, we have a new coach who is a really nice guy.  Me and Trev went out to eat afterwords at you know where.  Then we went to KTM's again but she was going to Young Life.  Oh by the way, the Quas is not allowed to drive on Riverbend across from Cedar Crest where the original "Church Thing" occured.  That place is truly evil, Layman and Lynn got into an accident right there.  Anyway we went to Scrips to talk but he denied us too!  So I just went home.  I don't think anything spectacular happened on Wednesday after wrestling.  Thurs. night Trev's Mom made Chicken pot pie.  Friday was me and Trev's guy's night out.  It was interesting, I'll give it that.Trev wanted to go bowling to practice for Sat.  I only had 5 bucks left so I wasn't gonna bowl.  Trev had free passes at Mountainville, but we stopped at Parkway to see if anyone was there we knew.  They called our lanes but we decided to go to Mount.  We got there and Trev realized he had forgotten his bowling ball so we went back to get it and returned.  We went in and they told us the wait would be till about 11:30 so we went back to Parkway to wait in line again.  I signed Guzie 2 on the short line again.  When we did get out line Trev bowled three times and then the lane went Buck-T and gave him like 6 strikes.  Bowling that night just wasn't meant to be!  Trev got some free games for his troubles though.  Then we went to Brass Rail, where I did not get a soda in boycott to their no free refill policy.  Then I went home to bed.  I woke up to go to wrestling practice, perfect timing considering me and Morton were going to see Garrett's play that night.  Only one thing, Quas's battery was dead because my wonderful new dome light stayed on for some reason all night.  My dad charged it for about 20 min but when I turned it off and back on it wouldn't start.  So my dad took me to practice and I asked him to start it again by jumping it and letting it run, I was sure Quas would pull through for me in my time of need.  Sure enough, it started when I got home from practice, I was so happy.  Then my mom stopped by after Morton told me that Mandy couldn't come because she had left some wet towel on her bed.  Whatever!  Me and my mom went to the new T.G.I.F.s and I drove the Quas!  My mom gave me 10 dollars in addition to the 15 thatGrandma and Aunt Kitty gave me.  I put 8 bucks of gas in the Quas and threw some wash in and visited Trev at bowling after I got a haircut.  Penn State won over Michigan, I called Trout to gloat, but he wasn't home.  So I talked to my parents for awhile and It was also an interesting conversation!!  Then I picke dup Katie to go out to eat before we went to Garretts play.  I'm glad it was only me and KTM, because she's a good friend of mine and It's nice to not have to be in a group every once and a awhile and just talk.  Katie's play was really good ( even though ours is better, naturally) and even though Garrett didn't have a huge part she did a great job and I was proud of her.  After that I met all of KTG's friends  I had heard about, and it turns our they were all alot cooler that I had thought.  Then the Katies and I went to KTG's house where I met her dog, a spunky one she is.  We didn't have much time there so I dropped Katie off and went home.  Everything seemed too perfect about that day, so for once just about everything went my way.  Just about everything.  Anyway, I had to work in the morning, and I took Quas.  They let me off early and I went home after I stopped at Trev's to drop Ole Quasimodo.  It's the car!  The one day I have it everything is perfect, but afterwords I didn't see either of the Katie's much at all, Necky football was uneventful, Garrett stole my jacket (stole is a little harsh), and I was sick, and actually went home early from Trevs!  I had a nice conversation with KTG at night though.  And finally Today!  Yes TODAY in school I gave some girl named Becky, a backrub in exchange for some homework and then this girl whose spanish name is Maccrena gave me a note asking me if I was interested in getting to know Becky better.  I was flattered and said that if she was interested in a friend she should call me on some weeknight after 8.  I was surprised when she sis but our conversation was cut short.  Also today me and Trev ate at his house when Mom cooked us spagetti.  We were told we are going to the Penn State game this weekend!  Then we went to the SOuth Mall, the mysterious fun mall.  Oh, by the way, Mom3 was trying to organize a surprise party for Yoshi, and we asked her to check Yoshi's pants size.  She said she'd check and call back.  Then she said, "When I call back, your Sandy".  we thought that was so amusing.  It was the way she said it.  I guess, but it made it sound like it was some huge operation.  Then one of Kev's friends called and thinking it was Mom# I said this is Sandy and she hung up thinking it was the wrong number.  I called KTG and invited her to the PSU game, and asked if she has an extra backpack, I could steal.  Well, I'm gonna pack it in.  Signing off at 12:50.-Guz

Guz: 11/20/96 Thursday 9:45 in TS.  Tuesday after practice we (me and Trev) were supposed to take Morton out to eat because she got an hour break between after school and 9.  But she got out of practice early and instead Garret came to Trev's with her.  Then we went to Pizza Hut.  When we were getting out of the car a reddish caprice pulled near us.  Anxious to speak with a fellow boatsman, I said " I have that same car."  He asked if mine was a '77 as well!  It was great.  We were talking about how powerful they are and how they suck up so much gas.  I'm telling you, Quasimodo has powers beyond any human comprehension!  It made us a new friend and I'm not even allowed to use it!  Trev and I had been discussing about our circle of friends.  We said that we needed an old guy on the team!  If we ever see him again we are going to ask him to do stuff w/ us.  In Pizza Hut a romantic song came one and me and Trev danced, in the middle of Pizza Hut by the salad bar.  The Katies invited us to Young Life.  Unfortunately I had to go home by 8, so we regretfully declined.  Then last night I had to go home after practice so that I can go to the play tonight.  I took Quas, gave her some gas, and got my paycheck.  Becky called again for about 45 minutes, and after 10 I snuck my grandma's phone to call KTG to confirm our plans for tonight. -Guz

Guz {Rememberance} 11/21/96  I remember the story Mandy wrote about.  It was before I cold drive so we would go out w/ Jay every night.  On lehigh street as we approached the stoplight before the Dunkin Donuts, Trev said that Heath and Austin were in the car we were pulling up to.  I rolled down teh window and yealled "Hey! you pussys."  As it turned out it wasn't them and I felt like an ass.  The driver said "what?" and I said I thought he was someone else.  when I was repeating this story to Mandy and Katie on our walk I yelled the "Hey! you pussies!" part just as the convertable drove by.  A little after the first incident there was the "Sciptunes Clone" incident.  Me and Trev were at Parkway Lanes we saw a kid bowling by himself.  Me and Trev stood behind "scrip" and I said "What kind of loser would go bowling all by himself?"  Well, this kid turned around and smiled, the smiles on our faces turned into blank expressions as we pretended to look around for the person we were talking to.  We walked away and started cracking up. -Guz

Guz: 11/21/96 10:51pm at my dining room table.  I just got home from a pretty cool night.  After practice, one that Trev actually participated in, I went home to my house and had some Goulash.  Then I put 4 quarts of oil in Quas, and headed for Necky's.  We picked up Trout and met KTG at the High School and saw KTM's play.  It was really good (much better than Solchi's!)  After the play we decided to go to McDonald's to eat.  I told Garrett that had lost my keys in her car the other day.  Then we stole three of her floor mats!  When she unlocked the car door for us.  I always thought the Quas could use some floor mats.  Then in Old Fashioned Quas style we went straight from the parking lot to the road.  Then, in an attempt to pass the Katies, I pulled through LVS and honked at them but then she kept going .  Didn't respect her.  Then at McDonald's we found the perfect Klepto Trophy, The Metallic Ronald McDonald in Emmaus's Mickey D's. I don't think it can be done.  Anyway, after chasing KTG out of McDonald's we were chasing her on Lower Macungie road.  She slowed down, I went to pass, and with no turn signal she turned left.  Ol Quas pulled through on the sharp turn to the right.  Then I came home. -Guz

Guz: {Rememberance} 11/21/96  Last year I was in the Auditorium for some reason I thought it would be awesome to stand at the very back of the auditorium and whip a football to someone down on the stage.  Me an Trev had weightlifting after school so we did it.  It was tough to make sure no one saw us but we did.  That was only the short of it it.  Our accomplishments included across the pool, across Caf 1 and 2, from cafeteria 1 outdoors part to the courtyard, from the roof to the schools main entrance, and across Mrs. CoHrolls room during class!  Oh, we were good.  Here is a separate remembrance that I was reminded of today.  Last year me and Trev had this think going that girls would purposely bump into me i the halls, it happened at least 10 times.  Also I remember The optional nod.  This consists of a hall passerby incident in which there is someone (the HB) whom you have just met and you want to say hi to.  The Optional Nod was our one conclusion.  If you nod at this person, if they see it, and nod back your good.  But even if your nod is not seen, it is then considered a storzy nod and no one walking behind you will think that you got denied because they won't know who your nodding to.  Also, on the subject of hallway greetings there is the distance factor theorem.  This states that the distance away from a person that you initiate the greeting at is directly reletive to the level of friendship between you.  For instance, if I were coming down the stairs by the bus entrance and Trev was at his locker as soon ass we saw each-other we would yell to eachother.  On the other hand if you don't know someone as well if you spot them down the hall you must stray your eyes into space until you reach the proper greeting distance.  Otherwise you would stare at them the whole way down the hall.  This is what got us started on known edicate rules, such as on Seinfeld.  Since then we have gone through many rules. -Guz

Guz: {Rememberance} 11/21/96  I figured this book is about memories and it would not be fair to exclude some memories because they involve certain people who happen to fall in bad taste, so all memories involving Kelly are written on page 24.-Guz[Due to a mis-numbering incident, there is no page 24 in the Book Of Quas!]

! ! !  On this day, the 24th of November 1996, the keys to the Quasimodo have been rightfully replaced into the hands of its owner, thereby recommisioning old Quas! ! !

Guz: 11/24/96 Sunday-  O.K.  This weekend was awesome so here goes.  Friday in school we got our report cards so I went home after practice to show it to them (my parents) because they wanted to talk to me about the car when I got it.  But after I had dinner I started getting ready to go out so we never really talked about it.  I told Trev id he didn't pick me up by 7, I wasn't going, but he cames at 7:30 Because he said he had to take his mom to CVS and gradma's.  Anyway, we picke up Natasha and went to my house to get the ring and to his to get the tickets.  Me and N sang the Grease Megamix together then we went bowling.  I rode dino while waiting for bowling, and then unplugged the basketball machine so it wouldn't beep when we pushed the gate up for free shots, but it beeped anyway!  It's alive.  Then, after bowling we went to the zigurat, then home.  Saturaday was the best though.  That was the day me, mom, KatieG, and Trev went to the Penn State, Michigan State game.  I was 5 minutes late, but KTG was a half-hour late because her alarm didn't go off.  No problem though because Trev naturally wasn't ready.  Then we left for Happy Valley.  Katie was prepared for the cold with gloves, some kind of long underwear, a double jacket, a ninja face-mask and a hat she once wore as a skirt!  At the pitstop we stopped at, the men had to use the portapotties, while the girls could go inside.  But it made up for it with the Cherokee Red Cherry Soda for 75 cents.  Then on the way to Perkins an awesome song came on.  It went

"all I want to do is thank you, even though I don't know who you are.  You who let me change lanes, while driving my car."

We were sing that the rest of the day.  Trev pulled into Perkins the wrong way, which was quite an ordeal.  Then we went shopping.  Katie kept score on the buyers and sellers.  The first one was on the car ride, some guy was pulled to the side of the road holding tickets out of his sun roof.  Anyway the sllers crushed the buyers.  I got a cool Penn State shirt for 5 bucks at this outlet store we missed last time: Katie bought some stuff from inside and was waiting in line for awhile until they said cash may pay outside so she went from third in the tine to like 10th in the line outside.  Good deal.  I also got a liceense border and a football magnetic car huggie thing.  Then we went to the tailgate party.  Then we were walking and found some news radio station thing w/ field goals goingon but we didn't get picked.  We got a piece of a hoagie out of it though.  Then on the way to our seats Katie started doing some stupid little thing with her lips to annoy us, so I zippered up her coat all the way, but she still did it.  the game itself was awesome it was close.  All the way till the very end.  There was some awesome guy with a (cobelliar2?).  penn State only scored when he was near us.  There was also a skelator man.  At halftime we saw Dorney and his dad there.  During the game, Garrett constantly read the scoreboard to us, very helpful, not.  After Penn State won by a field goal thing we started leaving and Lauren found us.  Trev talked to her and then we left.  I put my football huggie on the back of Esmerelda to see if the advertisemesnt was correct, and if it fell off it wasn't meant to be but it did.  Katie told me some stories before I fell asleep.  Katie didn't take my jacket probably because I was too half-asleep to remember.  This morning I went to football after my dad told me I could have the car.  After football Me, Trev, Jay, Becky, and Natasha went to see Space Jam.  It was pretty cool.  Then we went to bowl at Mountaincille and this one guy there was a total dick.I was also late in taking Becky home and getting home because we got stuck behind a train.  Then I got home and wrote this.  I've been nodding off the last few paragraphs. -Guz.

Guz: 11/27/96 Wednesday 8:55am in English.  On Mon. after school we had practice at Southern Lehigh.  I saw The King, but I didn't see Katie.  i heard from KTM that she looked in but all she saw was Heath, figures!  The guy I wrestled with, Adam, was pretty good and he was a really cool guy too.  Anyway, I took Trev home and he started to feel sick, so I played my last two games of the season.  After Becky called, and I lost to the Jets!  We are now in the playoffs and I can't wait to start.  Scrip didn't make the playoffs though so all that is in my way is the computer, Jay, and Trev.  I will finally be able to use the talents of Cunningham against human opponents!  Well, I went home at around 8:30 and I could not eat because I had to make weight for eliminations.  Trev wasn't in school Tue because he was sick.  I was 2 pounds under, which surprised me, when I weighed in at wrestling.  But I felt weak all day at practice.  I won my first elimination, but today is the tough one, against Corey Colier.  I beat a few times last year and I'm a lot stronger but I can't help being nervous.  See with football I can just except the fact that I'm J.V., even though it's my favorite sport and I'm good enough to play some varsity.  Also I should eat to gain weight!  But wrestling makes me nervous because I have a good chance of being on Varsity, but I'm not sure of myself.  Even if I do beat Corey, will I have a respectable record?  I just don't know.  There are a lot of things I don't know about.  Anyway!  After practice my mom took me and my sister to eat at T.G.I.F's.  We walked in at the end of this huge line and some waitress came and practically wispered to us "does anyone want smoking"  My mom said yes and the waitress pulled us from the back of the line and seated us!  Because I had to make weight today, I wasn't going to buy any food.  So I ordered three drinks!  The waitress looked at me funny.  I had some summer cyclist drink which tasted bad, and mine and my sister's strawberry daquari (I don't have any idea how to spell it!)  I love those things!  My mom bought me a CD and I went home.  I read email from Morton that I wasn't supposed to get till after she was gone, so I wrote her back after she called me.  That sucks that she's going to Ohio during Thanksgiving break, but oh well.  Well, I tell you how the elimination goes. -Guz

Guz: 12/03/96 Tuesday 9:45 in T.S.  O.K.  I'm gonna go buck-T again so the next couple of pages won't be blank for very long.  Wednesday After school I had wrestling practice in which I eliminated with Corey for Varsity 140 position.  It was a great match, but he got a takedown in overtime to beat me.  So because Thanksgiving was 2 days before the tournament I decided to go to 145 at the JV position.  I went home and had some awesome sicilian pizza stuff and then I picked up some groceries for my parents.  Then I went over to Trev's and Jay beat me in the playoffs.  I needed a touchdown with 24 seconds to go but I couldn't do it.  I went home and had some of that pizza before I hit the sack.  Thursday Thanksgiving Day.  I worked from 7am-12pm that's all they were open.  I went home and got changed for the day.  Then my step-mom's family showed up.  The cowboys won the Turkey Day game which is technically good for the Eagles but still pissed me off.  Nothing really eventfull happened the rest of the day, but before I went to work I ate some of that pizza.  Friday I worked from 10-5.  When I got off, I went to Necky's.  We took Jay's car and picked up Natasha and went to the mall.  We didn't buy anything though, that's not why we go to the malls, we just have fun going to different stores and looking at stuff.  Weird, huh?  Actually, I lied, Jay bought a new memory card and NHL '97 for the playstation.  We left and stopped off at Arby's on the way to Trev's and I went right home because I had the wrestling tournament in the morning in Great Valley and the bus was leaving at 5:45.  To be continued... -Guz

Guz: Tuesday 10:25 pm in my dining room.-Saturday For some reason, saturdays have been awesome for me lately, and today (Sat) was no exception.  I won first place at the J.V. 145 weight class.  On the bus ride down to Great Valley I was a pound and a half over and Steckle was even more over.  He even rode one of those stationary bikes the bus ride down there!  I don't know why but I was debation whether or not to run and sweat off that pound and 1/2.  But there Steckle and I were, the two Emmaus 145 pounders, running like asses to make weight!  I found some lucky water bottle there, which was an empty gatorade bottle someone had left behind, and I sucked on that thing all day, I had to use the restroom so many times.  Anyway my first match was my hardest.  The kid looked like a wuss but he put up a fight the whole match, the final score was 5-2.  The next kid ws wussier, I could tell it as I wrestled him.  I even used a take-em down, let 'em up approach!  This is me we're talking about, the worst shooter ever!  And the last kid was a joke.  I beat the second kid 13-8 who is supposed to be worse than the last kid who I teched 15-0.  That was my first tech-fall ever.  I was trying to pin the kid because I promised Trevor I would but the ref said, "Ok guys the match is over"  And I looke all over the kid for blood because I didn't know why they stopped the match in the middle of the second period.  Then I looked at the scoreboard ans was surprised to say the least.  But it felt so great.  I got a medal and the tournament chart.  Trev was mad all day that he had to get up early and not wrestle.  he also was dying to play the new hockey game.  I almost forgot!  I was suppose to work today from 7am-2pm but I had my sister call me in sick.  You don't call in sick on saturday's at McDonalds it's their busiest day.  Apparently they calle dmy house and my dad sayed I wasn't here.  But I figured I'd take a suspension for a gold medal!  We went to the zigurat and then we went home.  Sunday  I worked my regular 6am-2pm shift which I actually stuck around a little later for.  katie G. visited me, for about one second we had this huge rush and at around 1:30 i here this "Matt" in a soft voice from the lobby.  I looked out and saw Katie and I had to remove the burgers from the grill and when I looked up again, she was gone.  I asked Keith where she went and he said he hadn't seen anyone.  I thought I had hallucinated it from the cleaning stuff's fumes.  I saw N before I left because she came on at 2.  Then I went home and did all of my wash that had been sitting around for 3 weeks.  I talked to Katie G. on the phone for a bit, until my wash was finished.  Then I went to Trev's, where Greg and Brian were already.  We went bowling at Parkway for a bit, then left and Brad Smith paid for us.  then we went to the Zigurat.  I brought in my Golden Corral pitcher to fill at the refill stations.  Then I got a camera and the Item from my trunk.  Greg took a picture of me with the Item and a chicken sandwich and the pitcher.  But that wasn't good enough for team Quas.  We had to top that!  We decided we needed one at the scoreboard at the garage-mahal (the football field).  But we pulled into the old parking lot and cloaked as we neared the stadium.  I pulled up about 3 feet from him and decloaked and fixed my highbeams.  He seemed to be looking for something in the back.  I just looked up to the chestnut.  By the way the weather was horrible for the driving, especially in ole Quas.  My window was all fogged up, and I could barely see anything.  Anyway, we decided that we had to attack the stadium from the less direct side, across from the church.  we got out.  There is a really tall fence there with like spikes on the top, not to meantion it was raining like all hell.  But we conquered it and ran across the field and got the picture then ran back.  My second bout with the fence went right up my ass!  It hurt like all hell!  We now we were all muddy, and we went up to 7-11 to do a damage assessment.  We were all covered in mud.  I was he worst, but I don't know why.  Luckily I had Katie's car floormats, my drivers one was covered in mud.  Greg and Scrip had to be home so I dropped them off, and Trev got a picture of me and the Item on one of those work bulldozers!  Then since me and Trev had planned to do it since I got quasimodo back, we planned on doing the operation In which Smithy pays for our gas.  I drove all the way to this Turkey Hill passed Country Side, but it was pay before you pump after dark.  So we drove to the street behind Lehigh Street to get one of those gas stations but they were the same deal.  But it's onlylike that after 10pm at the one, so we marked that one for later.  We aborted and I went home.  Monday  I had a short11am-2pm shift that overlapped Yoshi's 11am-3pm.  I couldn't believe how busy it was, on a monday, our slowest day.  Natasha got me in trouble for talking to her, so she started sending notes.  I went home and got my wrestling stuff, in case we went to practice.  But when I got to Trev's Katie's car was there, so I assumed we weren't going to practice.  I was right.  I showed Katie the muddy floormat and the Item.  We walked up to the Black Market to get some doritos, but all they had were small ones.  Oh yeah, I also stepped in satan-dog's shit again.  And then I was talking to her, and she started to make the most evil face I ever saw!  I hate that dog.  I got some pictures of Byrd w/ the Item, and one of Arial (KTG's car's new name) and Quas next to eachother.  Katie left and took my jacket again and insisted I keep hers.  I tried to steal the 4rth car mat, but she caught me, but let me keep it anyway.  As she left she told me that she won, anyway, but I couldn't think of what she might have taken.  Well she had to go, so after Trev got ready, we did the operation!  A full tank of 93!  The mission got an A+ because the people never even saw my car!  I just casually pulled out!  I didn't even need the official "No Smoking" sign over the license plate.  Then we went to Yoshis to pick her up and go to the mall.  Nothing eventfull happened, but we had a good time, you can't go wrong with the mall!  Then we stopped at a zigura (see there is only one zigurat, but the rest are ziguras) near Yoshis and ate at her house.  Then we went home.  Today  More and more often, it's getting harder to get gas today!  In the morn. I picked up Trout and Trev and parked in the official and exclusive parking spot of Quasimodo.  See through some loophole in the new construction witht the school there is the remains of an old parking lot spot right near the school's main entrance!  But it is a spot, and I will park there till they tell menot to.  But that was the second time and they have not said anything!  Katie M. finally came back, and she gave me the "Mouth" single she bought me in Ohio.  It was nice to see her again.  After wrestling practice I took home Trev, Austin, and Nate.  Austin made me wait till he got inside because there have been like 5 gun point robberies, scratch that, muggings in his neighborhood!  That's crazy!  I went home and ate and picked Trev up for the B-ball game.  We got there just as the Katies did.  I was the "n" in Central sucks.  Garret was the "A"!  Oh, I found out in school what she hade taken on monday.  She stole Quasimodo!  No one messes with my mascot!  She's going dowm!  We lost in the final seconds 60-59, what a heart breaker!  Well, now that I have 23 straight pages, why doen't someone else write!? -Guz

Scrip: you crossed the Rubican on that one.

Necky: 12-4-96 -Business Class-  Of course I'm reading this book.  There is no use to listen to what he is saying.  Anyway, Matt what are you talking about that nobody else writes in this book.  I do!  I read it all the time and then make side comments.  I'm telling my view of what you are writing on the side of the page.  Most of it is exactly what I would write. -Necky

Trout: 12-4-96 -Trout's First Entry-  I had to read 73 1/2 friggin' pages before I got to write!  I have a question, what happens when we run out of room to write in the book of Quas?  Anyway, w/ my first entry I will have to think back to one of the very first days of Guz driving the Quas.  It was me, Guz, and Neckie (aka Shckie aka Shneckie aka Neck aka Trev).  We were rollin' down the road when we cam to a stop light that was red, only Guz didn't stop right away.  He waited till we were in the middle of the road then he stalled.  he took a full rotation of the lights (red, yellow, green, then through the process again) to figure out to get the car started again.  Another time would he on the night of KTG's b-day party.  While Guz was playing bball in the driveway I "borrowed" his car and parked it up the road on the side in the mud.  I left the party before him and when he went to leave he couldn't his car and when he did it got stuck in the mud.  Those were great times.  I am going to motion that no one is allowed to cross-off other people's writings (see p 42)  Anway I'm signing off. -Trout

Trout: 12/5/96 -Math Class-  I just took a test which of course I flunked w/ flying colors.  Nothing interesting happened yet but then again I'm a boring guy. -Guz- we need the Ronald McDonald statue and here is an idea--- get a picture of you w/ the item sitting on Ronald's lap.  Anyway, the bell is about to ring so I gotta leave, see ya! -Trout

K8: 12/5/96 -Tonight I read up on all the entries and all I have to say is "When the hell do you get the time to write all this shit Guz?"  I have to go.  My mission is to do a little face-lift on Quas.  I promise not to hurt her. -K8

Kat: 12/8/96 -Sitting at K8's house-12:11pm  This weekend was pretty cool.  Except for Friday night, when I had to go to a stupid track meet.  I didn't even get to run!  My sister did.  After the race, she tripped and fell over one of her friends. DUH!  Anyways, she sprained her wrist and came crying over to me saying she wanted to leave.  So I called my mom.  I didn't know how to get to Stabler (which was where the meet was) so I followedmy mpm there and then she left.  The way she took there was kinda complicated so when we wen tto leave, I called her to get directions back home.  She gave me directions to a different wa then how we came.  But anyway, WE GOT LOST!  I was scared out of my mind.  We ended up at some rundown sports-building in Bethlehem.  We had to retrace our steps all the way back to Stabler and started over again.  This time w/ my mom on the car phone taking us step by step.  I was so scared 'cause it was dark out. I had ZERO money and was running low on gas.  I thought we'd get standed somewhere.  And yes, Guz, I was CRYING!  I was really scare though.  Then yesterday (Saturday) I actually got myself out of bad at 8:00am to go to Guz's wrestling tournament.  We saw Guz wrestle his first match.  It was cool.  I don't think I'd ever seen real wrestling before.  Guz did really WELL. (Correct grammar, Trev)  He won, obviously/  Then he spotted us and came over and sat with us (me, K8, and Trev).  He had a bottle of "Guzie's Special Stuff" with him and he sucked it down needed to refill it.  But we wouldn't let him.  I put him (well, actually I put his leg) in this awesome hold.  I wrapped my legs around his legs so he couldn't get up.  THen he LIED to me and said that his match was up and being the gullible person that I am, I let him get up.  he refilled his special stuff.  Then, he really did have to go wrestle.  It was awesome!  This time, Guz pinned the kid really quickly, and... he used my move!  And it worked, too!  It was cool!  Then we (k8 and I) went to Mountainville bowling to watch Trev bowl.  We made Guzie gas and buy us sodas and fries w/ cheese sauce.  They were really good!  I've been hungry alot lately.  Anyways we had to leave, so, uh, we did.  But, K8 got Trev's jacket and he didn't seem to notice so, she just left w/ it.  We were outside, and she remembered that she left her keys inside, but she didn't want to risk Trevor noticing the jacket.  So I told her to give it to me and I put it in the car and pulled around to pick K8 up.  When she sat in the car she said that Trev was keeping the keys as collateral (?) for the jacket.  But when we got back to K8's home she found her keys in her pocket!  It was funny.  Then I stayed at K8's house for a little while and called my mom and got permission to go over to Trev's house later to watch Braveheart.  I went home, ate dinner, oh wait, scratch that, I didn't eat dinner, I forgot.  Anyways, I got to Trev's house at like, 6:45pm.  K8 and Jay were already there.  Then Guz showed up and Trev, Jay, and K8 decided to go pick up Greg.  They left Guz and me there alone.  I gave him my school picture and told him to write out mine.  It took him Forever!  In fact, he was still writing when they all got back w/ Trout. [ Wow-ok, SIDEBAR:  I think that's the first time I've called him "Trout" and actually written it down!]  Then Trev and Greg started playing hockey on the playstation, which was aggravating, 'cause I wanted to watch the movie.  I'd never seen t before.  Then we all started watching the movie.  It was good.  Then, MUFASSA (?) called.  Trev went in another room to talk to her.  I picked up the phone once and did my little "Power Rangers" tune on the phone.  It goes: 2-2-1-2-8-2.  Then I needed to use the phone so I could call my mom so K8 picked up and asked Trev if I could use it.  Trev thought it was his sister who picked up, though.  Anyways, I called my mom to ask if I could sleep over at K8's house 'cause it looked bad outside and I didn't want to drive home.  She surprising said I could.  Then trout called his mom to see if he could sleep over at Trev's.  It was so funny.  He sounded like such a little boy.  She wouldn't let him and he was protesting!  Well, all in all, the movie was good, being w/ Guz was good and my whole weekend had been good.  But, my arm really hurts now, so, I'm signing off.  Besides, I have to leave K8's house soon and pick up my sister. 12:53pm  P.S Was this a little more legible, Guz?  It's in English! -Kat

Guz: 12/9/96 MONDAY 10:12 In T.S.  Well, it's nice to see other people writing in here!  I actually spent my whole T.S. period reading it.  Well, next time I get a chance, I will do my weekly "Week in Review,"  But right now, I have World Studies. -Guz

Guz: 12/9/96 Monday 7:05 (by my clock) at my desk.  [Guzman's Week in Review!]  But first some setting.  I'm actually sitting at my own desk now!  See part of my deal on getting Quas back after my report card was that I stay home one day after school and I chose today obviously.  But I'm listening to this awesome CD that Natasha let me borrow, sort of.  It's called "Forever 80's"  My whole family went Buck-T when they hear some of the songs.  "You have that on CD?"!  To sum it up, it's sweet.  My room is actually quite nice now that I look at it. It's a shame I use it so little.  I have a pretty new TV which I never use, and a stereo with a CD player which I don't use because Quasi's boom box sounds a whole lot better.  I'd put it back it, but I don't want to buy 8 more D batteries.  It goes through batteries like Quasi goes through gas, but at least I can plug the cd player in.  For some reason my room always has to be clean too, the only think that I'm not a neat freak abour is the size of the wash basket.  I never have time to do it.  Yeah, yeah, enough setting, here goes: Wednesday  After school and wrestling practice I ate and then we went over to Trev's to pick him up so we could go over to Morton's house.  Listen to this, she called while I was there and her and Trev talked for 10-15 mins even though we were going right over, sweet thinking!  Well, when we did get there after Trev picked up something to eat at Yocco's we checked out her new car.  It's nice, but no Quas, it has no personality, except for the "Bass Cannon."  She has ILLEGAL Ohio plates on it, some people!  After Katie retrieved Trev from his lawn inspection mission we went inside where I acquired my HO, HO, HO cup.  It's a Christmas thing, at least that's what it's supposed to mean.  We went downstairs to play some pool.  I was doing good against Katie, but she came back at the end, and beat me.  Most of the time Trev was sleeping on the couch.  Katie said that one song that was playing was the one that was hers and Garretts because it was about the end of a month long fight of theirs, and Trev and I said at the same time "which one?"!  But before Katie cam down me and Trev tried to steal a mirror that was  down there, and Trev was trying to stick it up the back of my shirt, but Katie caught us.  She told us that wasn't "The Mirror" anyway, that Katie had it.  I may be a Klepto, but Garrett isn't doing to bad either, what with my favorite jacket, a pair of my jeans, the mirror, and most importantly (sentimentaly) the official Quasimodo!  She also stole something else of mine, but I can't seem to remember it now.  Anyway, Katie beat Trev then at pool as well.  I was told not to bring Trev over anymore, that he is too boring.  I wanted to get home to see Voyager so I broke up the lovebirds so i could get home.  By the way it was a rerun!  Thursday  After wrestling practice I went home to eat and then went back to Trev's (that's getting a little redundant. so from now on I'll write <@>!)  Then me, Crys, and Trev went up to the mall.  Crys was being a backseat driver, which pissed Trev off.  Trev picked up some birthday presents, but we couldn't find the elusive slanted stripped tie!  We almost fell asleep on the couches at Strawbridges or whatever it's called in the middle of the mall, Some lady said, "school time" to us and I yelled to her because we had like 12 hours.  We were both pretty beat.  I went home to sleep.  Friday  This day was an interestiong surprise.  At 6:30am I got a knock on my door by my step-mom that we had a 2 hour delay!  Unexpected which made it better!  Since I sleep to the radio I heard that school was cancelled and went back to sleep.  I got up around 11am and that's one of the days you want to get up and eat, but I had to make 140 for the tournament on Sat.  I was hoping we would have practice because I needed to lose weight.  So after coach called I called Trev, but he decided he didn't feel like going.  So I picked up Godusky and his little bro, Matt, stayed at Trev's for a little, and the to practice. <@>.  When I got back to Trev's Bird was still there from the first time I was there!  That was like 4 hours!  Tunis was there and the 3 of us went in Esmerelda up to Yoshis to pick her up.  She was mad that we didn't go in. {Interuption, I went to sleep and forgot to write last night so now it's Wednesday and I'm in TS at 9:43}  Then we picked up Trout and went back to Necky's to meet Godusk and Gabe, but they were running late.  They finally got there and after recieving the Quasi fund, we decided to go up in three cars, Quas, the Beamer, and the convertable.  I booked it to the mall, but where there are two lanes off the exit to MacAurther Rd. I took the londer right (as opposed to left) one, thinking the were all way behind me.  Then Jay drove by me in the left lane to about 10 cars ahead of me.  And when the light turned green, the guy right in front of me went abour 5 miles an hour and like stopped.  But we still beat them because we found the first available parking spot, and me, Trout, Scrip, and Natasha ran into Moddels.  Then 5 minutes later Godusky showed up.  We mosied around in the mall for a bit, and Natasha was mad at Trev for not paying any attention to her, even though he wasn't even in the mall!  He ran his coat out to the car. We decided to eat, well, they decided to eat considering I couldn't.  We; me Trout, J, Scrip, decided to eat at Dunderbox's.  The food was nice and we had a really good looking waitress.  Of course, Trev and Godusky wouldn't know, Trev doesn't like anything different and Natasha had to have a chocolate milkshake.  Scrip and J "got caught" looking twice before we left.  The mall was closing and I had to get home to get some rest so I dropped of Trout and Scrip, and I would have gotten gas while I stuck around to wait for them to get there and say good-bye.  Saturday  Yes, my string of awesome Sat's continues.  Katie G already wrote about some of this but I'll add some more.  But that will have to wait because T.S. is over.  Adios! -Guz

Guz: 12/11/96 Wednesday 11:40 in Alg 3/Trig Hon.  Now, back to Sat.  I woke up and packed one of those huge feasts in a bag that  I do when I have a tournament, because I can't eat until after weigh-ins and then I (usually) have  all day to spend there, and being starving would waste the whole 10 dollars my dad gives me halfway through the day!  Well, I picked up Trev and weighed-in at the J.H.  Then most of the team went to the Emmaus Diner for breakfast.  When I got back I saw I didn't have my shoes on or singlet.  Trev let me use his singlet but I needed my shoes.  So I drove all the way home, when I realized that I had my shoes in the back in my other bag.  Now that was a smart move!  Anyway I got back and wrestled the first kid.  I would have tech-falled him had I not pinned him, it was 15-3 and I had 3 back points but he never got to his base.  Then I spotted the Katies and Mom and Trev, so I went and sat with them.  They all signed my waterbottle, which is the same lucky water bottle I found in Great Valley!  Then my next match came up and I promised mom a pin.  So I pinned the kid in the first period with "Katie's Move" and then pointed at mom like I said I would.  I realized that these were my only two matches for the day and it was about 12 so we decided to leave the tournament and go to Trev's bowling.  He didn't do as good as he usually does, his teamates are a bunch of jokes!  He was also excessively hyper.  We went home and I felt like going home till the Katie's came over.  I watched Grease.  Also, I put back some of the food I hadn't eaten.  Then I went over to Trev's to watch the movie.  While me and Katie G were cuddled up on my couch, Trev and Trout got her keys and swiped some tapes out of her car.  They, meaning everyone, was making fun of me and bringing up horrible memories of a certain past relationship and Trout made me go outside and brush my teeth with one of his comments.  All day I was having fun, but what else was new, it was a Saturday!  Sunday  I had the usual 6-2 shift, extremely boring, but Big Head visited me.  I love when people unexpectedly pop in when I'm working, it lessens the monotony.  After work I went home and took a shower and stuff.  Then I went over to Trev's.  The guys wre playing football, but it was almost over, but really I didn't feel like playing.  I watched Bady Boys w/ Yoshi.  More precisely, I slept while she watched Bad Boys.  Then we went up to her house for a birthday party, only told her we were going to the mall because it was a surprise.  Tcara was the only one there besides me, Trev, and Jay.  There was a lot of food though.  And Natasha had those 2 awesome CD's she was playing.  Then Jay drove me to my cat at Necky's so I could get home before 10.  Well, detention is over, I'll have to finish later! -Guz

Guz: 12/11/96 Wednesday 11:36pm BMC at my desk.  Yes, and then Monday I chose to make tht my night I spend home, and that's when I started writing this.  Then I went to Grams to talk to Morton on the phone for a pretty long time, then I came upstairs and Katie G called.  After awhile some of her friends came over, and she asked to call back.  I decided I would call her back by sneaking on the phone after 10.  But they took the cord to the downstairs cord off, so I snick down to Grams but she went to sleep early.  My Dad came downstairs and told me to stay in my room.  I felt so bad, so I made a copy of this tape the guys got on Sun, that was broken till I fixed it, for her.  Then I went to sleep.  Tuesday  After school and wrestling I went home but I could not eat.  I was talking to K8 on the phone while I argues w/ Satan what the point was in waiting for her to make dinner if I wasn't gonna eat.  So I went to Trev's and waited an hour or so for him to get ready and then picked up KTM to go up to Kat's.  We got to see the parents bedroom and her mom's "stuff."  I got to see the prisinor, and she had Quas in a dress!  It was pitiful.  Her room was an awful mess, but she wouldn't let me fully see it.  Then she played "Eye of the Tiger" for, or at least tried.  She kept giving up!  Then I met Homer Dog, Kat's "security blanket."  I grabbed it and insisted I had to borrow it.  I had to do some sweet talking and insist that I could fix the huge hole in its neck.  With Morton's assistance, she finally let me borrow it.  They decided they would skip "Young Life" and hang out with us, which I thought was pretty cool.  They had to drop off their trip money first though.  We decided we really didn't have any reason to go out to eat, so we decided to hang out at Trev's.  When the Katies where leaving, mom assited on the swiping of Trev's jacket, but he sat on "Scar's" hood and would not get off.  I pulled up behind them on Harrison and tried to pull him off, but he would of pulled her windshield wipers or bend her hood before he would let KTM borrow the coat for 1 night, so I gave up.  I left out an Important part of this night though.  On the way to Trev's I floated the East Texas, Minesite stop sign, without thinking about it, and totally Illegally sped and went through stop signs on the way to his house.  When I pulled into Trev's driveway, a police car pulled up behind me.  The officers got out and asked for my license and registration.  They had followed me the whole friggin way!  I was doing over so on the road by the Little Lehigh, and didn't use my breaks at all on the way down that supersteep hill right before that road.  I was super scared.  But then they said, "You don't need any points on your license" and left.  I had to hold back from cracking up until they left!  I drove like a total asshole and they let me off.  You would think that would teach me a lesson?, No!  See, I didn't know where exactly they started following me or why they did, I just thought they saw me speeding and followed me.  But they were actually stationed at the new stop signs waiting for people to float them.  Well after the Katies left I drove home at like 25mph.  Then not mentally concious of it, I floated the stop sign again.  For one thing I do it so much on right turns like that that I didn't even once think about stopping, even as paranoid as I was.  Well, I saw the lights of the cop car turn on and I knew that they were following me, but I didn't know why.  So I pulled into my road and to the side of the road.  When I found out what they had stopped me for, I realized everything, and felt like such an ass.  They said they were gonna send the ticket in the mail.  I told my parents about it.  The rest of the night I felt sort of nervous and really stupid.  So I sewed up the Homer Dog amd went to sleep.  Today  Wednesday-  I had detention, then went home, then picked up Austin got some Jerky, dropped off Nate's friend and went to the meet.  I was like a pound and 1/2 under.  When Parkland got there I found out they had no 145 JV, but I was to get the best of 3 135 pounders.  Trev actually got an exibition match.  He wasn't ready for it really, he wore his friggin sneakers on the mat to wrestle, the same sneakers he wore on the beach.  But he pinned the kid in a minute.  It was awesome for his first match.  I ended up with the second best kid, which really pissed me off.  All I could think of was pinning him in less than a minute, not to be shown up by Trev.  But the kid was really strong and would not stay on his back.  So I tech-falled him unofficially at 17-0, officially at 15-0.  I am always surprised when I techfall some kid!  It usually takes long to techfall a kid, I though, but the matches seem to be over before they start.  I watched Vasity up to Sully and went home. -Guz

(No Idea): 12/13/96 in T.S. with my lover beside me.  I was watching Saturday Night Live yesterday and was shocked to see Guz's passion- Olivia Newton John- singing.  Sorry Guz, but she absolutely sucked.  I was appalled.  I think if Guz saw it, the spell would have been broken.

One time when we (Trev, Guz, and me) went to Natasha's house we were sitting in Natasha's room while Camille was having a spaz with baby powder.  Angela continually spread it on herself.  When  both Trev and Guz were laying on the bed, camille went through Guz's legs and Trev's legs.  After that she stood up and said that Trev had a "big castle" and Guz had a "little castle."  Guz was absolutely demoralized.

Guz: 12/15/96 6:00pm in my room.  Right now I don't feel too hot.  This has been the shittiest weekend!  Thursday was cool though.  After practice I went home and ate dinner.  Then I drove up to Garrett's to give her back her car mats so her parents won't hate me as much as they do, but I don't think it really made a difference.  I heard her parents yell at her to give me back my jacket over the phone before.  I drove up, but she told me she wasn't going to.  I also let Katie borrow this huge bear I've had since I was 3.  Don't worry guys, she said she'll give Quas back, shejust couldn't get it then because she would have to go back in and get it and her parents would see her and they would hate me.  I also showed her the repairs on HomerDog.  Anyway then I left and stopped off at my house to pick up my glasses to see Katie M's choir concert.  I sat with her parents because I went alone because Trev had prebowling and Katie is only allowed to do one thing a week.  The choir concert was good, but it wasn't the christmas music I like.  Katie said she'd rather do a traditional christmas concert too.  Well, after the singing part, Katie milked 14 bucks out of her parents to go to Friendly's.  Her dad gave her 10 bucks, and Her step-monster asked her how much money he gave her and she said "6 bucks" with him sitting right there!  Then we didn't even go to Friendly's we went to Taco Bell.  Actually first we stopped at Trev's but he had gone to Natasha's.  Katie got me a Mexican Pizza.  I love those things, I used to get them all the time.  Then we went home.  Friday  I had to "babysit" my "step-children".  Which consisted of driving them to, and picking them up from the dance.  My parents knocked off 30 bucks from the money I owe them for my insurance, so I'm not complaining.  I talked to KTM on the phone and listened to my awesome CD's.  When I brought the kids home, Trev, Brian, and Trout were sitting in Esmerelda.  I revved my engine but Trev was too pussy for a game of chicken.  I got in and we went to yocco's.  I could eat because I was 5pds. under but I didn't have any money.  Realizing that I had no Yocco's artifacts, I got one of those Thank you for not smoking signs.  Then Trev took this huge swirl to get to Scrips house and he wasn't going home then.  I packed my wrestling stuff and my Smorgasboard and hit the sack.  Saturday  This was the Saturday to end all Saturdays.  I totally destroyed my streak.  I woke up and picked up Austin and Trev.  I weighed in at the school and I was like 2 pound and 1/2 under 145.  We went to eat at some diner after we weighed in at Quakertown.  Then when I saw the tournament tree I saw I had a bye in the first round, then I'd wrestle the first kid I wrestled last Saturday and then the finals if I beat that kid again.  Trev pinned his first kid, but in the second round, he lost 9-2.  In the second round I wrestled that kid, but didn't do as good.  This time I beat him 9-1.  That point is from when I let him up to take him down again.  The first period was only 1 minute long too.  Also my head gear was covering my face for half the second period.  And this match was at around 4 o'clock, 10 hours after I woke up.  I had to sit around all day and wait.  Even though I beat him, I was tired as all hell, and I could feel my muscles tightening up.  Then 20-25 min later they called me to the front desk, which is where they run the tournament from.  Usually they will call you up there if you have a forfeit.  I didn't want a forfeit in the finals, but I would have taken that over what they told me.  Apparently the tournament had added some friggin kid in and had him wrestle one of the kids who already lost.  So then they said I would wrestle the finals during Varsity right then!  And the winner would wrestle the punk who wrestled one loser, and won!  I was pissed, to say the least.  So I hurried up and got ready to wrestle again.  This kid was good too.  He was ahead like 5-0 which stunned the shit out of me.  He kept using this throwby move on me and it frustrated the hell out of me.  Then I got him on his back and somehow it ended up 8-8 with like  a minute left in the match.  I remember I knew I could escape from the bottom at most anytime so I wanted to wait till the last second so he would not have time to shoot again.  But it's hard to think about seconds when your completely tired, the last 40 seconds seemed like hours.  I escaped with like 14 seconds left which put me up 9-8.  But with 5 or less seconds he did that damned move and got back some points and beat me 12-9.  I wouldn't get up for a few seconds.  I don't remember if I was just too tired or disappointed or mad or a combination of the 3.  I was kind of out of it after that, I got a soda and walked all over the place.  I was like deep in some closed down corner of their school till I turned around and went back to the place where we were sitting.  Then I just layed down and slept or something.  We got 4th in the tournament and Brad got outstanding wrestler.  I dropped off Dulin at Turkey Hill and took Trev home and went home at like 9:30 because I didn't feel like doing anything.  Trout called to do something but I had to deny him.  I had to work in the morning too.  Sunday Today was the wackiest(?) day of work I've had in awhile.  First of all I started at 7 instead of 6.  But I was still tired anyway.  Then at 10:20 we realized we had no more mac sauce.  So I volunteered to go to Emmaus McDonald's to get some more .  I stopped off to get some gas while on the time clock, I felt like a rebel.  This was the second time I went to Emmaus's McD's to get stuff, but this time I had to go in the back.  Anyway, when I got back to my McDonalds I was to go on break.  I had been stuffing my face all morning before I left so I was just sitting there forcing down a hashbrown and sucking on a milk, feeling sorry for myself from yesterday and that I had nothing to do tonight.  The she sat across from me.  She who?  Maybe the one person of the few people who could actually put a smile on my face?  Maybe not.  Maybe the last person in the world I wanted to see.  Maybe the salt in the open wound.  Maybe the kick to the stomach as I lay in a puddle of my own blood.  Maybe Satan's disciple.  Maybe pure evil in human form.  If you don't know who I'm talking about read page 24.  I was stuck.  Not only did I not want to stay there, I had to pretend to be eating when I was full.  Luckily she didn't really feel like talking, because she said she had to get in line to get food.  I shoved my food in my mouth and booked into the back so she wouldn't come sit and eat with me, I didn't have the strength to keep my pathetic fake smile.  I hid in the back till my break was over.  Trev was supposed to be there at 1:30 to go with me to the mall to get Mamula's autograph.  I wasn't surprised when I called his house at 1:45 and he was there.  He said we would never get in on time because Gomez and Folger went and the line was sooo long.  And naturally, he didn't bother to call me.  Well, the line was like 10 mins long and I went home and layed down.  Then I started my wash and talked to Katie M. some on the phone, but I couldn't do anything with her because she's babysitting, and Trev is at the Flyer's game.  Katie G. wasn't home when I called.  I don't have my awesome CD either because Emily borrrowed it from me to tape it.  So a pathetic end to a pathetic weekend.  Signing off at 8:07 -Guz

Guz- 12/15/96  Sunday 8:30 in my room.  I forgot to mention the one good thing that happened this weekend.  You know that ticket I got in the  mail?  Well, it's not comming!  The police came to my house and they told my parents how I was driving.  Not only did they not give me a ticket but they were concerned with my safety!  Truely nice cops.  Only I would get off twice in the same night getting pulled over.  Oh, I also found out that the first time the reason they stopped me is because they couldn't catch up to me!  I was just driving like an ass, but I wasn't trying to outrun them and I wasn't late to Trev's, I just felt like going fast!  And people doubt the power of the Quas!  I'm telling you, good things happen around that car, It's no mere vehicle!  Do you honestly think that if I would of got pulled over there in the same night in any other car they would of let me off!  Hell no!  This also means that me and Trev are still on.  See, a long time ago I told him that even though I drove like an ass and he drove like a grandma, he would get a speeding ticket or traffic ticket before me!  Actually it was a traffic ticket or accident before me.  Either way, It's still up for grabs!  Now that is luck! -Guz

K8: 12/16/96 - My grubby, horrible, terrible, no-good, very-bad weekend: Not only did I babysit Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night, but I didn't see "the group" all weekend. I heard it wasn't too great for other people too! For instance the breaking of the streak on saturday and Katie's weekend @ home cleaning, and Trev's cold. By the way people, please refrain from writing specifics about time I spend w/ the group. Some people can't deal with the fast that I like Trevor, and that I do what I damn well please b/c she's the one that moved in on me so there. As long as Trevor doesn't tell me to stop. So, that's my mind for now. Well, more later. - K8

K8: 12/16/96 - Last Period Math - Since I can't reminisce (sp) right now, I'll write about whats going on right now. Well Trevor isn't @ school right now, probably due to a late night at the Flyers game, so we, the group, hasn't conversed much today. Bayside had the Maxx. We have Trevor's locker. Justin and Gabe are happy. [ Justin Godusky writes " Thanks Katie"] {Justin, you need a symbol + you need to write in the book! -Guz} Guz totally wants KTG and I'm glad. Soon enough Kat's gonna realize what she's missing. Guz seems to think Kat's parents consider him Satan child, but they don't. My parents love him. {They hate me. On Christmas Day we were at Katie's house and they(her parents) came home. Right away Mr. Morton said "hi" to Guzie and he started talking to Guz. He didn't say anything to me until I looked at him, then all he said was "hi"-Necky} Actually, they talked about him all weekend. Gag! On another note, I'm getting really excited about the Florida x-mas trip. I'm gonna miss everyone though. After the way we've all gotten so close this year, it's a shame we couldn't spend New Years together. Oh well, our senior year in NYC will ne awesome though. If our parents let us go it will be a miracle. We'll have to lie and say we're all staying at Trev's house, he can figure something out for himself.{I think my parents will let me. I don't have to lie. I'll tell me parents to tell the other parents we went out to get something to eat. If they call, they will lie to the other parents -Necky} Well Bell. more later. K8 (Kat*ate)

K8: 12/17/96 - 3rd Period Typing ... of which I am obviously not doing much of. Well anyways last night Kat told me the Jeremy broke up w/ her. We were talking very lightly about it, but somehow Trevor heard us vio el telephono. I wanted to be the one to tell Guz, but while I was talking to Trev later in the evening, Guz walked in and [Trev] blurted it out. I was SO mad. I can't believe he didn't let me get my way. I ALWAYS get my way. Blahh.{Ha, Ha! I was supposed to tell him anyway. I tell him good news like that. You are 2nd on the list. -Necky} Well, Trev's going home sick, so today will be another non-group-locker-day (NGLD)-K8

K8: 12/18/96 - pd 8/9 study hall. NGLD3 I know I have a string of writing here, but the funniest thing happened today @ lunch. Brian Blair sat down to eat his French Toast, and his silverware package was sporkless. He flipped out. He kept saying "How Jewish."{I always check for a spork now! -Guz} Anyway he went tp get another packet and when he came back he threw like 10 spork packages in the middle of the table. We couldn't stop laughing. Ta for now. K8

Guz- 12/18/96 1:13pm in Caf2 S.H. Wednesday. Yeah MONDAY I wanted to do something after school I wanted to do something and I was still in my bad mood. I told Katie M., who was going shopping with Katie G., to call me so I could meet up with them after dinner. But she didn't, so I got a haircut and went to Trev's. When I got there Trevor told me about Jeremy breaking up with Katie. I could here Morton Screaming on the phone it was so funny. I talked with Morton a little but then she had to go. I wanted to do something {Guz, did you want to do something? -Kat} {I wanted to do 3 things -Guz} and Trev said we should go to Natasha's. So I went home to drop off the Quas and wait for Necky to pick me up. I was sort of happy and gitty and was singing that oldies song "Can't help myself, love you and nobody esle." Then we went up to Yoshi's. It was kinda pointlesss, she didn't talk much and she seemed depressed. I started eating their cookied while N kept playing this one song over and over again, which got to be quite annoying. So we left and on the way home the song I was singing came on the oldies station.{No, the song came on while we were going to her house, a little bit after we left your house. -Necky} I thought that was funny. TUESDAY last night I came and stayed home after practice. Practice let out real early, like 4:30, and I got home at like 5 so I watched a rerun of DS9 and the had dinner. I talked to KTM for a little and KTG for a long time, my parents were mad that my "stay home" day I spent on the phone at Grandma's. WEDNESDAY today I have a match tonight against Central at Cent. If history repeats itself they don't have many wrestlers and I hope I don't get stuck without a match. If I do have a match, I have pixy-stix that Guch gave me for the special stuff. Well, I'll tell you how things go. Now this isn't really important, but if you notice the t in Trev's name, it must always have a slash in it. [ In the written version, of course] That's because most of the time I accidentally write the t in lowercase and add the top to make it upper. But now I add the slash even if I don't make it lowercase first, I don't know why. I just do it. -Guz

Guz- 12/19/96 - Thursday in T.S. Yesterday after school I had the first driving part of my driver training. I had Mr. Legath and was the first student to drive the brand new '97 Lumina they have fro driver training. It's a really nice car, power everything and airbags and stuff. The funny thing is is there is also a brake on the passenger side, they should rent this thing out to parents of kid's with parents. We didn't really do much more then play with the radio. When I got in the Quas I felt like I was driving a lead ball. At the stop of Harrison and Cedar Crest I just kept going until I pressed real hard on the brake. Then I went home and lied around till wrestling. We were away at Central and as I suspected, I didn't have a match. Noony asked me if I wanted to wrestle Dulin and I said yes because I wanted to wrestle. Then I thought about how stupid it would be and didn't feel like it. Couch came up to me and asked if I would mind not wresting him and I said O.K. As varsity was going on I saw Emily's physics book and figured I might as well study some for the test tomorow. It was actually quite nice studying and doing the problems. I don't really mind doing homework when I'm doing it, infact sometimes its quite interesting sometimes, but its very time consuming and I can never get myself to START doing it. Oh well! -Guz

Guz- 12/19/96 - Thursday at my desk 10:56 BCM - Tonight was weird. I called Katie M. after wrestling to see what we were doing tonight and she had to stay home to work on her car, she said I could come over and I said I might. I went to Trev's but I just missed him. Natasha called for Trev, but she talked to me cause he wasn't home. It wasn't a very good conversation, because it involves bad news I must give to Trev, but I haven't gotten a hold of him yet. So I tried to call KTM to tell her I was comming over but no one answered and I called twice. So I sat with Mom and Kev and watched some TV and talked. Then Katie M. called Trev and she got me. She told me how pathetic it was that I was there and Trev wasn't, and I told her I'd come over. I stood outside her door for 5 minutes waiting for someone to notice me, because we established this rule that we can't ring her doorbell or knock, we have to wait for someone to notice us! I was whistling, but they didn't hear it. As a last resort I tapped on the glass because it was freezing tonight. She showed me some of the christmas presents she got people and her car lining for the top. I also got some email from KTG off my account while I was there. She asked me to Solehi's Snowball or do something else, "you know just the two of us." I left and had an elaborate plan. I was going to call KTG right after 10 and then get my paycheck and take Trev to the Zigurat, all in the Excelsior, my dad's car. But my damned dad stayed up to watch the stupidest program I ever saw! So I figured there was no way unfortunately to call Katie and I would have to sneak out with the Quas, not the Excelsior. I would also have to sneak out my window! So I get out my window, right, and it was icy as hell! I was afraid I would slide right off the inclined roof to my death. Well I worked my way to the edge right above my grandma's door. I looked down and got a flashback of when I lived in theTownhouse with my mom and I jumped out my window and pulled my Achilles Tendon and had crutches. I figured I would land on the icy sidewalk and fly in the air breaking every bone in my body. So I pathetically climbed up the icy incline very slowly to my window. Getting desperate, I went downstairs to see if there was a way I could sneak out. Nope. So I asked my Dad if I could pick up my check. It took some time and exageration to get him to let me do it so I called Mickey D's and they said I couldn't get it till tom. So I called Trev's and he wasn't home.{Where was I?. -Necky} Defeated, I retreated to my room to regroup. At 11 my dad went to bed and I called Katie G. We hung up around 12:20 and I called Trev to ask him to go out to breakfast with me. He said yes [ and now ] I'm going to sleep for 4 and a half friggen hours! -Guz P.S. I added the picture of the Quas tonight on the cover. -Guz

Kat: 12/22(officially)/96 12:13 am Sunday - officially - in my living room. I just saw the best skit on SNL! It was great. They were doing their own version of "It's a Wonderful Life," which was my play this year, for anyone who didn't come and see it. It was this scene where George Bailey(the main character)-Jerry Straub goes to confront Mr. Potter (the antagonist) about some money, or a loan, or something.I don't know exactly. Anyways, in this version, George Bailey + all the other members of the town come in and beat the crap out Mr. Potter! The guy who played Mr. Potter in my play was Jeremy Cheese-face{It's CheeseWiz. -Necky}, my ex,sort of. It was so funny to see his character get beat up! They even threw him out the window! Okay I just thought I'd add that part, for those of you who understand it. Now... My week in review: Well, on Monday, Jeremy broke up w/ me. I was really broken up about it(sarcasm, there). Then I went to the mall w/ KTM and my sister. KT was just as exited about the break up as I was. Then, later that night, Jeremy heard about me going over to Dain's house - where I didn't DO anything! And on Tuesday he was all pissed off at me. I didn't really care about that, but he went + told all his friends and they came + gave me crap about it. I must have heard about three different versions of the story! Then, skipping wednesday - cause it was boring, on Thursday, it was white-out day. That's where they paint certain peoples faces white to represent all the people killed by drunk drivers. One of those S.A.D.D. things. Anyways I volunteered to have my face whited out. I "died" at 11:18 so I couldn't talk or laugh or ANYTHING the rest of the day! It was "HAR-ABLE"(horrible)! Then, at the end of the day, we were all walking down to get our pictures taken for the yearbook. I saw one of Jeremy's friends passing us + he said to me:" Isn't that the girl who cheated on Jeremy Cheezum? Yeah, it is, What a little whore!" I couldn't believe he said that! It made me so mad at Jeremy. Someone asked me what was wrong and I just burst into tears(yes, Gooze, I cried -again!) and ran into the bathroom, or rather, I tried to. See, at Solehi, the girls bathroom is on the left instead of the right, so I ran past it and had to turn around. THAT was a little bit embarassing! Then on Friday(yesterday), Jeremy came + apologized to me for his friends "actions". I just blew it off. Then, last night, KTM, Jay, Trevor, Guz + I went to the mall. I went and picked KTM up, dropped my sister off at her friends house, and went over to Guzie's house. It was the first time I'd seen his house. He + Trevor were just taking their good old time. Okay, Trevor was taking his sweet time. Guz took me up and showed me his room + I got to see Homer Dog(that's my stuffed animal thatmy G-ma gave me when I was born!){Homer Dog is the ugliest stuffed animal. -Necky} It was great! He also gave me his extra J.V. Letter. I didn't steal it! It was offered to me. When we got back downstairs, KTM + Guz's dad were having a discussion.They started getting into whether or not Macungie should have it's own police. Obviously, KTM + Guz's dad disagreed, but KT didn't really want to get into it. Then, KTM and I left for the mall; We had to beat Guz + Trev there. We got on 309 + were going to go 22, but we heard on my FM Radio {They're over-rated! -Guz} that 22 was backed up all the way to 309, so KT got us off at the Tilghman St. exit. We didn't hit nearly as much traffic as we would have. And, needless to say, we beat Guz and Trev there. We got there like 20 minutes{Nooooo! We waited in Moddels for the longest time before we saw you!-Guz} before they did. It was so cool. Guz got my present, I got one of KTM's presents and I helped Guz pick out presents for his sister + mother. Jay got, uh, some interesting presents for Crystal + Jen. I wont say what though, for fear it might be seen by the wrong person. Then today, Saturday, my Mom made me help put up decorations. I had to put up the wreath's inside, which was shear hell! They;re so prickly! It took me forever. Then, my mom told me to go to the South Mall and get some of the presents for our Cousins + get some groceries at Weis's. Well, the traffic was horrible. It took me at least 15 minutes to find a parking place + it was all the way by the SteinMart. Then it took me 15 min to get back out of the mall. The whole parking lot was backed up! It made me so stressed out! Then, KTM called me + told me she was going to Bethlehem so I should make other plans. I tried calling everybody! Jen(SL -solehi), Rin(SL), Guz + Trev! Nobody was there! Then Guzie called me and invited me to go bowling. I called KTM + to see if she wanted to go, but she already had plans. Guz came + picked me up. We were getting onto the highway + Guz didn't signal. I made a point of saying somthing about it. Then, I noticed that the next time he signaled, it was just a steady light instead of a blinking one. And he blamed it on me! Then his breaks started acting up, he blamed THAT on me, too! None of these things where my fault. Just because I am observant(sometimes)! Then we went and picked up Trout, who also blamed the lights + breaks on me, of course. And we went to Trev's house + met up w/ Scrip, Godusky + Trevor. Guzie showed everyone "the beast.", then we left for Mountainville. We made teams, it was me, Trevor + Godusky against Trout, Scrip + Guz. I started out the game with a spare so I was confident in our team. We be $2 from every player. I thought, no problem. Well my good luck ended after the first frame. I did extremely crappy! I bowled a 58... and we still won! It was because of Trev's 223(I'm sure if that's the right score, sorry if I'm wrong Trev).{Yea, I think that was it. Good Memory. -Necky}{That is the first time that you've ever said anything nice about me. -Kat} Then we bowled a second game and I did, well, better, but not great at all. I bowled a 83. Guzie only bowled a 79. But I have to admit his first game was pretty good. Except for when he took his shoes off and bowled in his socks. He slipped and fell after he bowled. Fell flat on his Butt! He got a strike thought. Godusky + did both did better, I think, but Trevor's game slipped a little bit. It came down to Scrips's last balls. He pulled off a spare + then only knocked down one pin! I thought for sure we had won again. But, I forgot we had givven them a 20-pin handicap. So they won. I believe the score was 292 (us) to 297 (thats with the 20 pts)- a very close game. Everyone did well. I had a lot of fun. I miss seeing all those guys all the time. I also told Scrip that I missed him. Oh, and I saw this kid from my school there. His name is Paul Mullay! Wow! KTM knows whoI am talking about! And... I was informed that we wera all meeting at KTM's house for present exchange on X-mas Day! Was there some reason I was not told about this earlier? (Sniff, Sniff). Then Guz took Trout home, before me, so Greg could get home on time. Then, when Guz dropped me off, he was backin up + he hit the post of the basketball hoop. He didn't dent it or the Quas, I don't think. It was kind of hard to see, though.That's the extent of my week + weekend so far. By the way, I would just like to comment on my own handwriting this evening. I think it is very legible!{I took my Riddlin this time, Trev!-Kat}<--{You commented on you own entry?!-Guz} {Katie, you did very good! I am very proud of your writing. -Necky}<--{2nd Time-Kat P.S. Thank you} Signing off 1:31am -Kat P.S. I am determined to beat Guz with consecutive pages written on. I believe I am at 9 so far. I will beat his 33 if it kills me! I will, however, beat you, Guz, for consecutive pages on one (1) entry. My record is 7 pages + 16 lines. Yours is a mere 8 pages + 9 lines. That's not too difficult to beat.{8 pages, 9 lines, 1 column-Guz}

Kat: 12/23(officially)/96 12:15 am (Sunday night) Monday (early) from my sister's room. Well, today was stressful. Since i had a late night last night, I wanted to sleep in this morning. No such Luck. We had to goto church so I had to get up at 9:00. Oh, Guz, by the way, part of the reason I was up so late the night before was because I cleaned my room before I went to bed. I even put a load of laundry in te washer! I kinda had to do it though. Since company was comming over and going to be using my room. Mom said it had to be clean. then I went and tidied [ty(tie)-deed] up our bathroom. I couldn't beleive I was doing it! You must be rubbing off on me K8+Guz! Anywyas, I went to church, saw my old gym teacher from Eyer, Mr. Smith, and found out that one of my guidance ladies at Solehi goes to my church+her son was in my CCD class! When we were driving home from church, my mom asked my sister and me if we were going to change the sheets in the "Greater-Gross" room(It's kinda' our guest room downstairs). My sister gave my mom the biggest attitude and was like, "isn't that Matt's Job?" So, I decided to be mature + and I said I would do it. Well, when we got home, I was all prepared to wash the sheets, but my brother had a load of soaking wet towels in the washer. I was beggining to get pissed of at everyone anyways so I yelled at him about it. Then I decided to retreat to my room to calm down a little bit. When I emerged from my hiding place all the relatives that were comming were in the kitchen. Nobody came and told me that they were here and it made me look rude for not greeting them when they first arrived! So then I got irratated again. My mom started yelling at me about the sheets, and I in turn started yelling at Matt(my bro) for not moving his load into the dryer. So my mom yelled at me AGAIN for yelling at my brother! I was pissed. I stormed downstairs + threw his wet towels on the floor. My day was not going well. Oh, I forgot to mention an earlier inncident. When we just got back from church it was around 11:30 and I hadn't eaten anything yet. So I poured myself a bowl of Wheat-Chex (my step-Dad bought them and figured no one else would eat them.) My mom came running into the kitchen yelling at me 'cause she said we were gonna' have a big lunch. So I snapped right back at her that I was hungry + I hadn't eaten yet and I was going to have my damn cereal!(Okay, I left out the damn part.) Needless to say, she wasn't to happy w/ my behavior. So, my relatives had arrived and thats where my real headache began. Four loud, rambunctious(?) little boys all running(my cousins) around the house is not my idea of a good time. Plus a little seven year old brat who cannot stand not to get his own way. Since the smell sound, and sight of little children was present in every room, I decided to retreat to the computer. I think I checked my mail 5 times today just because I was bored. I tried calling Guz + K8 but no one was home. Oh, + did I mention the wonderful dog that was also working every nerve of my body? Then I finally talked to KTM. She had been at some party w/ her parents. She told me that her dad was giving her alcohol to drink and she was still feeling a little "high." Then she said she was going to call Trevor and tell him that she couldn't go out 'cause she had company over. Well about half an hour later, I got a call from a not-so-happy camper 'cause Guz had been mocking her about drinking.{Not cool guys!-K8} She said she was trying to talk to Trev but she couldn't 'cause he was laughing at Guz. She wanted me to call them + yell. So I did, I talked to Guz. I said that her drinking tonight was different from drinking w/ her friends. It's not like she was doing it to fit in or get a "buzz," her dad just offered her the drinks! I ,personally, thought it was harmless. Guz didn't agree. He said he only did it 'cause he cared about her, though. {Katie made Guz call Katie M and say that he is sorry. Of couse, Matt did, Right Away -Necky}

[In the spirit of Guz allegedly jumping to KTG's commands, Trev drew an arrow to the below drawing of Guz being walked like a dog, followed by Trout's whipped drawing]

[Followed by Guz's rebuttal]

[And finally, in true Scriptunas style, a unrelated yet hilarious side drawling]

I told Guz to call me later, but I didn't talk to him again. Or maybe, did I say I'd call him? I don't remember. Well, then, since every room was taken by some child or an older relative, I decide to go outside + shoot some hoops-> there were kids out there too! But I just did my own thing and ignored them. I was out there shooting for at least a half hour. It was good for me. It definately calmed me down(and tired me out). {What exactly are you talking about, Katie "It was good for you, and it calmed you down and tired you out!" I don't think you are talking about b-ball -Necky} {Sicko! -Kat} {What do you mean "Sicko?" You wrote it -Necky}I also figured that, since I was in the privacy if my own home, I would attempt a snot rocket. It was unsuccessful. I didn't get in on my clothes or face or anything, though. I guess I just had nothing to blow. {You would have been too tired to blow because of your earlier experience -Necky} {Double Sicko! -Kat} I came inside + went down to get ready for bed. I have to sleep in my sister's room tonight because that brat (satan-child) + her parents are in my room! Signing off here because I am about to fall asleep on the Book of Quas. 1:05 am -Kat
