tearing constantly

[french bread pizza]

i'm sad about ron and fez. i know this may sound silly to some but ron and fez did alot for me...for my life and for alot of others lives too...

wanna know why i've been away..cause it hurts to be close and know everyone is just going to be ripped away from you and you never know when it's going to happen. yeah i know i can still be close to my friends from the show..my real friends. but it's hard to be so far away from everyone...south jersey may only be and hour or two from everyone ..but it seems like light years..especially when i'm financially unable to do anything about it..ie, drive to bar 9 whenever i want...drive anywhere up there whenever i need too.

i depended on alot of people last year ..and alot of people wree there for me when i needed them most..and i could never repay them for that..but i try to not think about everything...but alli rememeber is great fucking times..and then i cry.. i stayed away from this board for a few weeks..and i come back and i find out they're moving physically to dc..permenently..and rory's gone..it's like the people that are most special to me are fading out..and it's all my fault cause i let them fade and i didn't do anythig about it. so what do i do now..i want to bring that joy back into my life so bad but i don't know how to do that successfully..

i'm just so sad that i can't be close and near to my buddys


this is the letter i originally wrote to all the dickheads at infinity..this might help anyone that reads this realize why i feel so down...

Dear [the assholes]:

This letter is to express to you my feelings that you would be making a BIG mistake if you took Ron and Fez off the air. I am not quite sure you fully understand the impact these two guys have made on NY and the surrounding areas. Nor do I feel you realize the asset you have, just by having Ron and Fez represent your company. My point of this letter is to just tell you my story. I want you to realize the impact Ron and Fez have made on my life personally. Maybe you have not considered the real, true people that are out there, that really enjoy, and love Ron and Fez.
I have been a supportive listener for about a year now. I first started listening around the events of 9/11 as many people I know did. The guys relaxed me, soothed me if you will, on a daily basis. I, as well as many Americans, was having a hard time dealing with the pressures of life in general. Not only the events of 9/11, but throughout my own personal life. I am a 21 year old college student. I attend Rutgers, the State University of NJ. I am in my 4th year there. So last year I was feeling the fulltime pressures of college coming to an end. In the mist of all this I was trying to deal with my parents divorce battle that was nearing the 3 year mark of in and out of court. I am very close to my mother, as well as my 3 younger siblings. I guess it would be fair to say that I was extremely stressed, and pressured to do well with my life, as well as support my mother and be a role model to my siblings. And while doing all this, to still live my own life, and be satisfied and happy with me. I was going through the usually 20-something pressures. Ron and Fez were there for me through this whole time. I became active in the Ronfez.net message board as many fans do. I created my own character. This character was me, but I had my own niche in the board, my board name was French Bread Pizza aka Frenchie.

Around this time that I started to bond with the board, I was recognized by Ron and Fez as one of their fans. They invited me in the studio to meet me. This day changed my life forever. I met the most wonderful people I have ever encountered. This was Ron and Fez's on-air holiday party, where they invited in their fans to thank them for our support. Ron and Fez were great to me; I immediately fell in love with them, as people, rather than just on-air personalities. This is when Ron and Fez became real to me. A few weeks later, on New Year's Eve 2001, my grandmother passed away of cancer, a battle she had been figh

Boy that was uncomfortable. Why not move closer to us? Or move a tad furthur south towards DC.....oh nevermind.

Maybe you can throw Fez's guitar away and hide in the case all the way to DC, like cartoon characters do.

frenchie,
that was a wonderhully written letter.
I have also felt this void since the boys have been gone. For the first four months of this year i've been unbelievably busy (i bought my first house
a process that took all of my time and focus.) but now I come home every night and instead of listening to Ron and Fez as i do the limitless amount of repairs on my house i got nothing. I'ts either loyalty or the lack of anything worthwhile to listen to but I do not even think of putting on the radio now at 7:00 pm.
anyway in short i understand your feelings.

[FUNKMAN]

SORRY FBP!

look back on those good times and enjoy them. there are certain things in life you cannot control. You are a young lady with your whole life in front of you, make the best of it and enjoy it. it seems they are not too far away and they always enjoy your company. visit them once in awhile.

regards,

Frenchie, I'm sorry to hear you're feeling down. Perhaps the fact that I'm not getting laid will cheer you up (see Off Topic: The sex noises woke me up).

If not, I have a song for you:


DON'T LET THE SUN CATCH YOU CRYING

Don't let the sun catch you cryin'
The night's the time for all your tears
Your heart may be broken tonight
But tomorrow in the morning light
Don't let the sun catch you cryin'

The night-time shadows disappear
And with them go all your tears
For the morning will bring joy
For every girl and boy
So don't let the sun catch you cryin'

We know that cryin's not a bad thing
But stop your cryin' when the birds sing

It may be hard to discover
That you've been left for another
But don't forget that love's a game
And it can always come again
Oh don't let the sun catch you cryin'
Don't let the sun catch you cryin', oh no
Oh, oh, oh

That was hard to read. It was so well written and clearly from the heart.

The show has touched us so much in so many ways. Each of us differently, but similarly in the mutual love we have for the Buddies and friendship we have as fans.

L'elisir d'amore

Una furtiva lagrima
Negli occhi suoi spunto:
Quelle festosee giovani
Invidiar sembro.
Che piu cercando io vo?
M'ama, lo vedo.
Un solo instante i palpiti
Del suo bel cor sentir!
I miei sospir, confondere
Per poco a' suoi sospir!
Cielo, si puo morir!
Di piu non chiedo.

Tout peut s'oublier

Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le coeur du bonheur
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas


Moi je t'offrirai
Des perles de pluie
Venues de pays
O— il ne pleut pas
Je creuserai la terre
Jusqu'aprŠs ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumiŠre
Je ferai un domaine
O— l'amour sera roi
O— l'amour sera loi
O— tu seras reine
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas

Danser et sourire
Et … t'‚couter
Chanter et puis rire
Laisse-moi devenir
L'ombre de ton ombre
L'ombre de ta main
L'ombre de ton chien

and it's all my fault cause i let them fade and i didn't do anythig about itCome on Frenchy, it's in noway your fault. This kind of crap happens. In a business like radio you never know when things will change. Rory got out before he was left jobless. He's a smart guy and I think him leaving now was for the better for himself. As for Ron and Fez they have the ability to always turn out on top. They will take there show to new levels in DC and will be back in NY before you know it. You just have to believe in them. Tearing yourself apart about this isnt helping them one bit. How do you think Ron or Fez would feel if/when they read this?

We're all hurting over this, but the best thing we can do is keep our heads up and show these radio asshole that they might be able to physicly take Ron and Fez away from us, but they will always be in our hearts, and that can NEVER be taken away.

Hey, I'm sure you have SU but if you dont drop me an email and I might be able to dig one up for ya ;) or just email me if you want to get things off your chest.

Wow Frenchie. That was an amazing letter! You realize, of course, that those of us who have been deprived of you of late miss you alot as well. SU is great, but it's nothing like them being here. The thing that keeps me going is the thought of how amazingly huge the "Welcome Back To New York Ron and Fez" party is going to be!

[GaryWyze]

[color=purple]I've never actually met you before, your hanging-out days were a little before my time. But we share a few mutual friends and I've heard nothing but good things about you. That's why seeing you so sad is, well, sad.

A bunch of us hung with the guys twice this week and I can tell you that they're all holding up okay. And I'm sure they wouldn't want you to be so upset on their behalf.

Trust me, we will get them back to NYC. Until then, all we can do is be there for one another and keep the faith.

Let me know the next time you wanna hit Bar 9 or something, and I'll help you to find a ride. Until then, feel better.

K - Your feelings aren't silly at all. Ron and Fez have touched the hearts of a lot of people, and helped them through some rough times.

It's been especially hard b/c the separation and change in location of the show has been slow and gradual as opposed to quick and clean. This is very analoguous to the protracted battle your grandmother fought against her cancer and may account at least in part for your feelings.


it's all my fault cause i let them fade and i didn't do anythig about it

That's not the case, K. You wrote an emotional, beautiful, poingniant and expressive letter to the suits at Infinity. You did what you could. Unfortunately, we cannot control the radio industry or the "logic" of the "suits." They were determined to move Ron and Fez for a long time and I suspect that it is letters like yours that kept them in NY as long as it did.

FBP, (please read this)

You should come to the softball game this Saturday June 28th. I am also from South/central Jersey (toms river). I am driving up there w/ my girlfriend and if you needed a ride feel free to contact me. I am sure seeing all of your friends would be a big help to ease your pain.

I have been a long time listener and have only been to one 'event.' But everyone I have ever talked to has been nothing but great, like you said. I feel its time to come out of my shell. As I said I am going there with the gf so this isn't me trying to be 'that guy.' Anyway its just a suggestion.

BTW the letter you wrote was heartfelt and sincere and I don't know how anyone could read that and not realize that the connection that was made there was something special. I can't imaging any modern day DJ in the New York recieving such high praise from a loyal listener.

[East Side Dave]

Shit, homey, how much south are you talkin'? We depart for Bar 9 from Spring Lake (near Belmar) and Red Bank if you need a ride (that is, of course, if you don't mind travelling with people who dress like rodeo clowns and sitting between bunny puppets). Now turn frown upside down, silly puddy!

Aw Frenchie. I honestly can't even begin to understand the bond you've formed with Ron, Fez, and the whole gang. I haven't had the pleasure to be that close, or lucky. But I do understand the sadness you've been feeling. We all have, though we've all expressed it differently. And your letter was so honest, it really showed just how affected by their sudden departure you really are.

My only advice to you is not to avoid the boards or the friends that you've made from the show. If anything, envelop yourself in it. You'll be surprised that it brings more comfort than sadness. Because we know how you feel, we can relate. And we're not too bad a group either. Dysfunctional at times, yes. But definitely there for each other when we need to be.

Frenchie, I know you have been through a lot over the past year, more than most people do in a life time. I know how hard Ron and Fez moving is making you feel, I'm right there with you. But the great thing is they aren't out of your life and neither am I and neither are all these people on the board. You are such a shinning person and everyone sees that and wants to be around you. Just remember that people aren't taken away from us, they will always be in our hearts and in our memories. You are a very strong woman and you will get through this. You know how to get in touch with me anytime you need to. I still feel the same way I always have about you and I always will.
