DO you know whats on most girl's minds but they won't tell you or will they.
I am telling you this because it is the honest truth, look I should know, they say that it is all in the way you use it, not how big it is, well I got news for you all, that is pure lies.
I know from personal experience, I will tell you about a secret that iorgo has made me promise to never ever tell anyone, but since he has not called me in three weeks after standing me up, I am going to break the promise and tell you how he went from having a tiny wang and in 4 months he is now about nine inches and get this, it is still getting bigger. He has been secretly taking grow pills from this site, copy and paste the address into your browser to see them. ANTMO.COM
I found out when I was at his house, three fridays ago, we were getting ready to go to the mall, so while he was in the shower, I went in his room, sneeked under his bed and found a box with pill bottles in it, there was like 9 full bottles and 4 empty ones, all ordered from ANTMO.COM I was laughing at first but then when he came in the room and caught me looking at them, he freaked out and made me sware to not ever tell anyone about them, especially girls from school or work that he has been dating for the past while, now that I think of it, he has been rather busy with all the popular girls around here, when just last year he was the shyest when it came to girls.
I just never put two and two together until he explained it all to me, I did see his prick and yes, it is huge, pronostar huge, the thickest and longest one I ever seen.
I know this sounds really shallow, but I am considering ordering 6 bottles from the website at ANTMO.COM for you know who.. he does not have a myspace account, so he is not gonna see this. They guarentee that the pills will work on any man, or they give you your money back, living proof that they do work on any guy, seeing is believing. ANTMO.COM

I think Secret Circus is host to poet, Paradise. He was on KPFA this week but I couldn't catch the myspace name he gave. If I'm right please add his name to your description. He was very good.

Perfect Strangers
By Rachel Swan

Big, splashy, color-corrected music videos and quippy commercials are bread and butter for Los Angeles-based filmmaker Nomzee. He recently designed the sets for Janet Jackson and Nelly’s video, “Call on Me,” which included a lot of fancy porticos and an Oriental palace (actually dragons spray-painted on Plexiglas windows, he says), plus a glamour shot of Nelly standing at the prow of a giant ship. “The director had a spur-of-the-moment idea to include the ship,” Nomzee explains.

Evidently, you can accomplish a lot with a big budget and someone else bossing you around. But at a certain point, you want to do your own shit. For Nomzee, that meant filming an animated short inspired by the Egyptian king Osiris, whose story combines themes from Cain and Abel, Adam and Eve, and the resurrection of Jesus. In Nomzee’s updated hip-hop kung fu version, the characters resemble comic-book superheroes; the villain has a cape, crazy wristbands, and a prop cane. Nomzee shot it in front of a green screen and spent six months filling in the effects. He found some useful bric-a-brac at a costume store on Hollywood Boulevard, including a miniature coffin that became the tomb for Osiris. “It’s a full-on replica of King Tut,” he says.

The Osiris Project screens at Wednesday’s installment of The Secret Circus, a series of solo performances by local comedians, playwrights, and spoken-word poets. Ismail Azeem and Lisa Marie Rollins, who produced the show, will feature their solo work as well. Rollins’ Ungrateful Daughter, which premieres on October 18, is about being raised by white parents in the Pacific Northwest and told she’s some kind of “Asian mix” — part Mexican, part Filipino, maybe part a few other things — even though it’s clear to her and everyone else that she’s Filipino and black. Rollins thinks it was a marketing decision to “obscure the black part” on her birth certificate, the play’s director W. Kamau Bell says. You laugh because it’s such an unusual story, he adds, but you’d be amazed by how many people have crazy transracial adoption stories. In fact, some folks could probably relate to Rollins’ frustrations with the white mother who hangs Aunt Jemima tchotchkes on her walls and can’t figure out how to comb her daughter’s hair. Said daughter is now a hardcore Ph.D student studying the African diaspora — and really, Bell says, you can’t get blacker than that.

The Secret Circus runs Wednesdays and Thursdays through October 19 at the Marsh Theatre in Berkeley. Shows start at 8 p.m.; tickets cost $10-$20. TheMarsh.org Ismail Azeem and Lisa Marie Rollins present a series showcasing local talent in solo theater, spoken word, and music, featuring Cedric Brown, James Cagney, Micia Mosley, Todd LeJeune, and Gabriela Erandi Rico. Wednesdays, Thursdays, 8 p.m. Continues through Oct. 19, $10-$20. The Marsh Berkeley at Gaia Arts Center, 2120 Allston Way, Berkeley, 510-644-4949, http://TheMarsh.org.
