So Im sitting In a boring Business Computer Applications class, with nothing to do. So i google my name. This comes up. Turns out Im actually a musician in a band called the Swingsters. I guess Im meant to be a swing dancer, its destiny. He died almost the exact time i was born. He is the youngest of 8, Im the youngest of seven. He is "well taken care of". He lived in a small community just like me. Its all a little scary. Check this out if your bored. http://www.enderbymuseum.ca/thepast/people/carlson/carlson.htm
By the way, what I really wanted to tell everyone is that In the fall, Im going to School at Weber State. So Ill be able to come dancing in Provo alot. Its a little drive, but definatley worth it. I look forward to seeing all of you before to long.

Awesome but you should have come to provo crazy Carlson. By the way weber has a great swing scene if you are rockabilly, love lifts, and hate footwork. Thats what I hear not what Ive seen. maybe if its true you could fix them.
Yeah, it's true. Lots and lots of street swing/triple swing. Not that that's bad... just... different...
Woah... the similarities continue...:
That website Ben quoted:Ben Carlson, the son of Mr. and Mrs. B.J. Carlson
Ben's parents initials are Mr. and Mrs. B.R Carlson
That website Ben quoted:Ben's parents were immigrants from Sweden;
Great grandpa Carlson was an immigrant from Sweden
That website Ben quoted:Ben was the youngest of eight children, and being the only boy he was quite spoiled,
Ben is spoiled!!!

Coincidence???
Buzz:Yeah, it's true. Lots and lots of street swing/triple swing. Not that that's bad... just... different...
No... it's bad.
different === bad.
Ill Do my best to try and fix them, but you kinda have to not suck to do it first. Im not to worried about it, more then likely Ill just end up coming to Provo most of the time. I would have loved to go to BYU, but it is to expensive for out of state, and at weber i get in state tuition which is only like 2,000. And Its only for a year before I go on a mission anyways.
I dont think BYU does in state out of state because they are private. They do member nonmember but I think you end up on the better sdie of that deal.

Urmmm... yeah. I'm from California, and I pay 1800 a semester. So unless you are paying weber 2000 a year, you got shafted.
Yep. Member/Non-member. Besides, you aren't a Utah resident. So how are you getting in-state tuition at Weber?
Its a program called the weber edge that makes it so you can get in state tuition if you qualify. Hm, 1800 really? Do you have scholarships though? I think my total cost will be around 3000 per semester for everything besides food. If I can get into BYU and stay at the swing house, that would be so much better.
No dude. 1800 is the normal tuiton per semester for a member. I think it's 2000 or 2100 or something like that if you're a nonmember. Pretty nominal.
Actually, try $3,620 per semester non-member. Member tuition is just a little more than $1800
wow... didn't know it was that high. But anyways, the point is moot, as he is a member.
Ben:He died almost the exact time i was born.
Did he die before you were born? Maybe you're really him!
[Emoticon not found] [Emoticon not found]
Yep, he died like two weeks before Ben was born
Whoa. Did your parents have any special reasons why the named him Ben?
Nah, they were just like, "wow, this kid is gunna be HOTT, I think we'll name him Ben." But i think Im on to something here...[Emoticon not found]
Ben:Nah, they were just like, "wow, this kid is gunna be HOTT, I think we'll name him Ben.
So what were they thinking when they named Buzz???
If you've ever noticed, Buzz thrives on teasing people. That makes him annoying, like a fly, hence BUZZ.
And all this time I thought he thrived on cuddling [Emoticon not found]: [Emoticon not found]: [Emoticon not found]:
gumby:And all this time I thought he thrived on cuddling [Emoticon not found]: [Emoticon not found]: [Emoticon not found]:
Deed I do.
Did this switch occur when you were around 11 years old?
Ben:Nah, they were just like, "wow, this kid is gunna be HOTT, I think we'll name him Ben." But i think Im on to something here...[Emoticon not found]
You know, I have a theory about that. All Bens are hott. I've yet to meet one that isn't.
you must not know very many bens.
Thanks Prilla. Most of the Bens that i know are just moderatley good looking though. But I decided I couldnt be this guy, I dont have any musical talent besides singing.
Ben:Most of the Bens that i know are just moderatley good looking though.
Yes, I admit, some Bens' hottness is augmented by the fact that they're named Ben.
A name fetish?
The Importance of Being Earnest. Such a fun movie and play if you havnt seen it go rent it.
Buzz:A name fetish?
No, just a trend I've noticed. Kind of like how I noticed that everyone named Jack is super-cool.
So what about people named Buzz?
I have no preconceived notions about the name Buzz. Any opinion I have about you is based on what I see of/from you.
So.... as far as you know, all people named Buzz are the coolest people... ever.
one time, i saw this bumper sticker, that said, "thanks a lot -- BUZZ!"
No, because all my opinions about people named Buzz are based on YOU.
sarsaparilla:No, because all my opinions about people named Buzz are based on YOU.
Precisely.
buzz shouldn't fish for compliments. he should just assume that what people don't say about him is far better than what they do say.
bobthecow:buzz shouldn't fish for compliments. he should just assume that what people don't say about him is far better than what they do say.
Huh [Emoticon not found]:
shut up.
I think that was a compliment, or at least the assumption of compliments.
you've gotta love how buzz somehow turned a thread about his brother into a thread about him.
It's a talent, really.
Teach me your ways Buzz.
NOOOOOOOO dont let him suck you in Ben
hahaha
Many of you may have or may not have heard, but I want to let you all know because Ben admired so many of you. Ben had been caught up with the wrong group of friends and had fallen into the trap of drug addiction. It had changed him and who he was. He tried and tried to get out of it but the addiction was too strong. Monday night April 25, 2007, my brother Ben decided to take his own life.
We have been grieving and there are really no words to say to make it better. I miss my brother and I hope he is happier where he is at. Please keep him and my mother in your prayers.
i'm so sorry. that's so sad.
My prayers and thoughts will be with you and your family Dave.
I'm sorry I didn't get to know him better. He seemed like an amazing guy. My prayers are with you, Buzz, and your family.
I really loved his enthusiasm and could see Buzz Jr. running SKC in a few years. My prayers are definitely with the Carlson family.
I'm just so shocked that this happened between talking to Buzz Tuesday afternoon and not seeing him Tuesday night.
