1/
Porsche, buddy films,and
New shoes don't buy happiness
'Cause 'writing is hard'.

2/
Speak to us in your
obsolete vernacular,
Wilsons' middle son.

3/
Maybe it's too much?
You used to be a genius
That's what they all said.

4/
They'll never catch you
Cause you'e Fucking innocent
Stay with us a while

oooh, that was thoughtful. Nice to see i'm not the only one thinking, caring and yes, preying for Owen. I know i don't 'know' him, but his characters feel like my friends. Not in a sick obsessive, stalker way. But seeing his films repeatedly over years you can become attached, have affection for the characters. And with Owen, he "seems'(?) to have a way of being The character, and still being himself. I've watched 'The Royal Tenenbaums' every night for the last three days and it just seems that much darker now. And prophetic.

Theres so much hype in the news about Paris, Lindsy, and Nicole. And all i feel between is anger and then complete inertia, because who cares? there out recklessly treatening the lives of others
God- I don't even know what my point is anymore.... I guess its just, why not them? Why him?
Do i sound like a horrible person? I shouldn't be judging there suffering , but none the less i am.

I don't know, watch TRT and see if it's shaded a little differently to you now.

p.s. If theres ever anyone on this board feeling depressed and suicidal= PLEASE DON'T. It may seem hopeless but there are friends in unlikely places, and help.

Hi chelseagirl! I loved your haikus! I don't know if I am doing the number of syllables correctly, but here goes:

Peppermint dental floss
Inspired touch necklace
Please let us know you

Wildcat burning bright
We won't let you go just yet
That's no way to act

Fair haired baby boy
Why do I enjoy words best
When it's you who speaks


Since Sunday night I have had a thread going over at the IMDB, and I would love to invite you to come and post there too. It's just intended as an alternative to some of the negative threads that are there on the Owen Wilson board. So far we've posted Churchill quotes (because as I am sure you know Owen admires Churchill), we did some Bible verses and hymns, and we've done lots of song lyrics, here's the link:

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0005562/board/nest/83620009
Also can be found at the Owen Wilson message board under Owen, people out here care about you...

Take care chelseagirl
