My Grandma Knows Billy Corgan
Jimi Hendrix
I need some advice: my Grandma and Billy Corgan's grandma, Connie Maes,
were best friends. My Grandma knew Billy when he was younger, before he
was famous. His grandma died about 10 years ago, and my grandma was with
her while she was dying in the hospital. My grandma died a year ago as
of May 29, and I miss her a lot. Does anyone know how I could get in
touch with Billy to see if he remembers my Grandma? I would also just
like to talk with him, of course, since SP is one of my favorite bands.
I think I even have some of Billy's old 12" GI Joes. His grandma gave my
grandma some GI Joes a long time ago that her grandkids weren't using,
and my grandma split them up among us grandkids. Does anybody know if I
could get in touch with him? Thanks for your help,
Mark

Hey!!! That's just 'cause Joe's got a major thing for Barbie. Lets face
it, GI phallic could kick
"look-at-me-I'm-the-way-women-should-be,-skinny-with-big-breasts <---(these
are the views of Matel, NOT ME!) Barbie" Toy companys were dicking us
around when we were young!

There are so many potential witty replies to this message, but you know what?
I can't think of one. I don't think it needs any...
Congratulations, sir-- your stupidity has all but stumped Mr. Bizzolt. If that shit's
contagious you will be hearing from my lawyers.

I used to be a huge Pumpkin fan.
But I stopped listening to the Pumpkins because I heard Billy eats peas one by
one with a fork.
They suck.

Now you've gone and given away the secret. And I just saw a post where he
didn't have a custom one. What if he won't do it anymore 'cause you told
everyone?
I want to know if he takes the time to do that manually for every post.

That's anyone's guess. I just set it to one of the loop modes on the Digitech,
and plug in various things- mics, keys, guitars, etc. until I have some big plodding
bass-feedbacking neverending rumble.

You saw his resume though. He even had more gun repair experience than Eric!
That's pretty darn impressive.

Yeah, there's always that possibly. You never can tell sometimes. What's
funny is -- it's the total opposite with Eric. He's such an asshole that when
he tries to be nice no one can believe him.

Let's keep our options open though. Come to think of it, Sonny-Bono-Guy is
pretty asshole-ish. If Troy was around and posting more he would have my
heartiest approval. Only time will tell.

Eric used to act for a living. Playing cowboys. For some reason, I don't
think *anything* could beat that. That's like, top credentials man.

I get bad karma man. Eric said when I flame, I flame nasty though -- I took
that as a high compliment. I think I'm just gonna give up on being
confrontation completely online... except for the people who front on my set
yo, of course. Mark was right with what he said some 3,4 months ago...
I'm a nice person.

WHY IS EVERYONE being such an ass? He asked a question about him grandmother
and it turns into a GI Joe- Barbie doll fight ? How pathetic!! I dont' know
but I think you're really lucky, Mark , that is such a gift. Wow you had
Billy's toys! Hehe maybe I am a little obsessive but I think that is
wonderful. Your grandfather probably isn't alive, right? Go down the line of
your family maybe you'll find someone who knows more of Billy's family.. try
something out just try a little harder maybe you'll find something out. Good
luck to you, Mark! :)

Lucky? Please, grow up. Why the fuck would someone care if they had Billy's
toys? And the last thing he should do is find some way to meet Billy thru a GI
Joe toy. You're calling this thread pathetic!?!?!? Wanna borrow my mirror?
BTW, my vote would have to be Barbie.

No kidding. When he says he used to "act"... that's a little sketchy. Like,
those Chuck E Cheese guys? Those guys in the suits?

Yeah. But power only leads to destruction -- remember what happened earlier.
We must learn from this Chris. My power has reached it's limit. I must keep
