    I think I read somewhere that a telltale sign of 'gothness' is denying their gothness to their dying breath..?

    Might've been on this forum?

    I dunno it struck me as clever lol.

    I remember "death rocker" mostly. I can't remember when goth started being used as a noun or why.

    It's a close second. How about being invited to Berlin to meet the Chancellor (all expenses paid) and turning him down because you'd been invited to dinner elsewhere?

    Nothing even close to that .... yet. I am just beginning to aim for the stars. Why did you turn him down? Schroeder? How do you feel about Schroeder btw? I'm beginning to seriously question the free reign being given Putin by Schroeder and US President Bush.

    I turned the invitation down because I had an annual meeting in Thuringen of a children's charity I am on the board of, and that was considerably more important to me than a Chancellor.

    I have few problems with Schröder as Chancellor on the national level - he'll effectively be my boss if I am elected next year. I don't mix with international politics too much, but agree that the freehand given the Russian government is a little bit too free, although I am not one for interferring in the sovereign decisions of other nations - providing they are not doing that to others. I place it on a secondary level to the freehand given China by Bush, but that doesn't make it any less of a matter to be given more thought.

    Agree. My main issue with Putin is his meddling in the countries surrounding Russia. Russia and China have been increasing military ties of late. In what specific areas do you have concern in reference to Bush and his China policy? Personally, I think we've been playing their tune for a good 16 years.

    why are you concerned about it? Aren't Russia reducing their nuclear weapons and isn't it natural that they should want a piece of the opening market in a neighbouring country? I guess I don't know much about it.

    and in other news Bush orders 300 million 5.56-millimeter bullets from Taiwan for an estimated 62.5 million US $.

    Russia is openly meddling in elections in the surrounding countries. They have also helped to foment secessionist movements in Georgia, Moldova, and Armenia. Russia is actually building a nuke that can penetrate any missile defense system. They don't want a piece of opening markets, they want their empire back.

    I wear in black enough to be a goth. Nevertheless, I don't wear dog collars and other parafernalia looking like a fancy goth and about this reason I could forget to flirt at the gothic clubs. For the other hand, my soul is too much goth as I wanted to admit. I enjoy the music.
    Here is a test about how goth I am:

    <table align="center" width="250"><tr><td align="center"><div style="font-size:18px;font-family:Verdana"><b>I AM 58% GOTH!</b></div><a href="http://www.fuali.com/test.aspx?id=104"><img src="http://www.fuali.com/pix/104/3.gif" alt="58% GOTH" border="0"></a><div style="font-size:10px;font-family:Verdana">Oh My Goth! You Goth, Girl. There is a good chance I am bi. Freakiness pumps through my viens, but I can still laugh at myself.</div><div style="font-size:12px;font-family:Verdana"><a href="http://www.fuali.com/test.aspx?id=104">Take the GOTH test at Fuali.com</a></div></td></tr></table>

    I think my problem with the US / China relationship is that it revolves purely around money. The forced entry into the WTO despite the massive Human Rights problems which the US uses to keep others out of various institutions sticks in my throat.

    I definitely agree with you there. There was opposition to China joining the WTO and other free trade agreements here, but it was limited to the far "right" and "left". The action is in the middle.

    As for me, I'm simply a Gothic Queen wannabe. Someday, when I'm rich and famous, I will own a beautiful silk and velvet wardrobe, live in an amazing Victorian house with flocked wall paper, and drink the blood of virgins to stave off aging. Until then, I'm just a girl with bad attitude and thrift store clothing.

    to be goth or not to be goth.... ive never been much for labels but what does goth mean anyways... is it the clothes? the bleak constantly depressed outlook on life that some that call themselves "goth" have? i dont know... im just a metalhead with tattoos and constantly changing haircolor who loves "dark & twisted" things (going by the opinions of the flock) thats trying to make it thru each day without killing myself (thats only because i cant kill others...) oh yeah and im "evil... in league with satan"! VENOM RULES.

    I think the main thing about being goth is that fact that one listens to ACTUAL goth music, which so few people seem to listen to or even know what it is.

    ok- so what is goth music?- alien sex fiend? black tape for a blue girl? rasputina? techno? industrial?

    Im fairly certain I wouldn't be considered goth- but I love fetish fashion, and can't get enough of goth chics!!! My musical tastes are pretty varied- but the majority of my wardrobe is black-
