   Standing in the dark, rainy shadows of a city alleyway, I spied the   
   Replicant Terry covertly transmitting a message to renegade friends in   
   alt.fan.blade-runner.  Tracking...   
      
   >So, I was at the Spice Girls concert tonight. (Yeah, go ahead. I don't care,   
   >I had fun!)   
      
   OMG!  Was it because you lost a bet?  Or a child dragged you along?   
   Or you were forced there by gunpoint?  It surely couldn't have been   
   voluntary...?

   >Yep.   
      
   No way!  I wonder if any of them have any idea what movie that comes   
   from or what it means...   
      
   >At a Spice Girls concert.   
      
   You said.  Ooooohhhh...   
      
   >(Incidentally, Posh sang, like, three little solo bits. I didn't know they   
   >lt her do that!)   
      
   Posh "sang".  Hah!  No.  She can't sing.  Not a matter of opinion   
   here, she really can't sing.  But they do wonderful things these days   
   with sound in pop music.  They can make absolutely anybody sound half   
   decent.  Oh and she really isn't posh either.  I saw an article on TV   
   that intimated she actually was from a posh background.  Fuck no.  She   
   is as common a little tart as anyone.   
      
   You went to a Spice "Girls" concert ... how ridiculous!   
      
   [BTW, if you want to find out any more about them, I have a couple of   
   Webrings linking sites about them if you're interested....]
