Biker Liz Again!
As you may know, Gordo's letting Liz use the motorcycle again for the summer. Liz is glad she won't have to go through the trouble of convincing Mom to let her ride it, like last summer. Too bad she can't let me ride with her. That would be so cube*. But maybe I'll meet a biker boy in Winnipeg. What? It cd happen!
But what Liz doesn't know is that Mom actually phoned Gordo to try an' get him to say the motorcycle's broken or gone or something. She slammed the phone down when he said "no". "I MADE him!" She yelled. Dad actually tried to calm her down, but she threatened to smash his
So he ran away. Then she went over to Connie's. Poor Connie. Lawrence told Liz that his mom hides when she sees ours coming up the walkway, but Elly P has a way of sneakin' up on ppl!
*Becks an' I told our 'rents that this is a new slang word all the kids are using now. "Cube" like "ice". It's like cool, but even better, cuz ice is, y'know, cold. Go ahead an' tell ur 'rents 2. Let's see if we can trick 'em into using it when they're trying to be "cube" like the kidz!

I love riding the motorcycle. I knew Mom would call Gord, so I warned him. One thing I love about Gordon is that he really has the balls to stand up to Mom.
Apes I'd love to have you ride with me but Mom would kill me and I value my life.
Cube? I don't know! All I can think of is square. My mom sure is a cube foob!
If you tell her I said that, I'll deny it.

yeah, gd point about "square". that'll make it even funnier if we can get the 'rents to use it an' think it's real slang! don't worry, i won't say NEthing to ma. we might have 2 threaten mike to keep him quiet tho!

Becky, don't feel bad. At least you are safe in the knowledge that Elly Patterson is not your mother. It's hard having to live up to the expectation of perfection. Sometimes I feel like millions of people are watching the things I do, 'an judging me harshly for them. April do you ever get that feeling? Like you're being watched? Man! I need to go take a long ride on the cycle.

good point i would never want ur mom to B mine. i prefer my mom even if she doesn't love me at least she keeps her regular-size nose out of my bizniss. mostly cuz she'z stoned or screwing some guy but i don't care she does her thing an' i got mine.
good newz is that my sis herd from our dad an' it turns out he didn't abandon us after all he just got arrested for smacking mom around. he gets out in 2 more months so we will prolly have a big party an' ur invited Apes. dad is cube an' will let us drink he's gonna have a keg.
