Hey Wireland.
  I'm supposed to be filling in application forms for when I finally
graduate but reality can wait.
My brother had Achtung Babe and I wondered what these sounds
pouring out from the depths of his room were, so I stole his CD and
listened to it. One, of course, struck me immediately. Then I was
away for a week and met these great people who were all into U2
and played their music constantly so when I got back home I re-
stole my brothers CD and listened to it again - and again and
again. Then my brother left to go to uni and I claimed UABRS
which he foolishly left behind. And so the obsession began. Now,
what would I do without them???
I only wish I'd been around to see the JT tour. To see them in a
smaller venue (as amazing as Zoo tv and Popmart was) would have
been so cool.
Anyway that' me.

See ya, Allison
