Yessss thank youuu! ❤
You sure make alot of assumptions about these two boys for someone who never knew them
Aside from the usual regurgitated facts, assumptions and suppositions are all any of us can make to fill in the blanks. Of course, if you don’t care for my style you’re always free to not follow me or block me even. Have a nice day. 😉
Do you know the name of the girl Eric Harris was talking to on his online chats? (apart from Jen) that girl I feel seemed really interested in him, but of course he wasn’t near her. As she stated talking about her crush “he’s a lot like you, only here” then Eric proceeded to say “Ah” it makes me think.. he really spoke into detail with this girl. His feelings& all. I don’t believe he’s that angsty teen, who wanted to hurt. I know he was sensitive he just felt empty inside. Really empty. :(
That convo you mentioned was with Jen Laufenberg. Eric had a lot of strong feelings and being crushed by rejection was a huge, tidal wave one that basically turned into cold, bitter, anger which gave him permission to want to lash back and hurt people. He was trying to connect, you know, he kept trying with girls. But even if/when he did land into dating territory (after very proactive attempts), he’d then sabotage the potential relationship with his behavior. He also tended to view the idea of a girlfriend as someone that should/would be compassionate, and he assumed them to be like a personal counselor for him to vent his complaints about everything under the sun. If Eric landed Jen or Susan (DeWitt) as a girlfriend, they might’ve helped him to a point but I don’t believe them to be the solution to unlocking the key to his ‘sensitive’ heart. Eric had a lot of pent-up frustrations and he had a lot of work to do with the right therapist. He was seeing a shrink but was basically biding his time and playing a game until NBK and not really confronting his issues.
Do you know if Dylan or Eric played any instruments? Eric sort of gives me a guitar kinda vibe, and dylan a drummer sort of vibe. If they ever were to play instruments. Thoughts? (Sorry if this is a dumb question, just curious since i am listening to Hummer – The Smashing Pumpkins) Thanks ms everlasting, also i love your blog, always know i can come to it when i need to know things about the boys.
Not at all a ‘dumb question’ but this was answered before here. 🙂 And thank you! You most certainly can anytime, but of course, I highly recommend using the search first to see if you can locate an answer on your own. ❤
What do you think how Dylan felt around Sparky?
Dylan was afraid of Eric’s dog?
Tentative sort of like this when Dyl heard Yorkie Sparky yapping as he walked in the Harris’ front door. (j/k course 😉 )
Was Dylan afraid? Nah, probably more like just subdued and cautious around Sparky until the doggy calmed the fuck down in his presence. lol
Favorite quote from Dyl? 🙂
Tonight I’m resonating with his one in particular..
“ Well well, back at it, yes (you say) whoever the fuck ‘you’ is, but yea. My life is still fucked, in case you care … maybe, … (not?) “
Dylan jotted down things he hated in his planner and there is one word I cannot make out. It’s between grammar and age limits. It looks like humor but there’s an n before… I’m trying :) Do you have any idea?
It’s a hard one to decipher. I tend to think he is referring to the Alts Mus (Alt (ernative) newsgroups and the Mus(ic) category. Usenet newsgroups were a big thing at the time and the music categories were massive and annoyingly endless. He just didn’t cross his ‘A’. so the and lower case ‘l’ look a bit like an ‘N’. What do you think it is?
Did Dylan tease short girls?
You do realize that the majority of girls were shorter than him, right?
and define ‘teasing’.
The date that you have to turn 5 by to enter kindergarten in Colorado is October 1st, which is really late compared to a lot of other states (Florida is September 1st). If the cutoff in Colorado was October 1st, then Eric would enter kindergarten a year before Dylan. Do you think that Eric and Dylan would’ve met and been friends if Dylan was a junior and Eric was a senior?
Technically, on or before October 1 in Colorado.
Interesting to note too that the typical beginning kindergarten age is 5. Dylan started school earlier than most kids as he was still 4 but on the cusp of turning 5 in September. And as we known, 5 is ‘a very influential number’ which had an important, underscoring effect on Dylan.
But I digress…
To answer your question, I think if Eric and Dylan were not in the same grade level class it would’ve been less likely for them to forge a friendship. Then again you never know with those two as they might’ve crossed paths through certain mixed classes in Junior High or met at some social thing for computer nerds. Kids that are friends in elementary school aren’t necessarily friends by middle/jr hs school and high school but conversely, kids that are not friends in elementary school might become friends in later years. It feels to me like those two were destined to become friends at the same grade level or not.
Is brookes brown really a kid fucker? He sure looks like one.
By the definition of a pedophile or as you refer to it ‘kid fucker’, no, he’s not one.
I read in a blog today that Sasha Jacobs was interested in going with Eric before going on a date with Dylan and it’s probably why she accepted to go out with Dylan. What do you think about it ? And how do you think Eric and Sasha met since she wasn’t at Columbine ? Maybe Chad was hanging with both boys and he invited Sasha along but it’s kinda weird I don’t see them do that…
Well, I don’t know where the blog you mentioned got this information but Sasha Jacobs went out with Dylan first and then Eric. There is no information, that I’m aware of anyway, that states that Sasha was interested in going out with Eric and only used Dylan as stepping stone. Chad likely gave out her phone number or in Dylan’s case, perhaps introduced her as part of a group outing or party.
I was going thru the archive and you said that Robyn bought a belated birthday gift for Eric (a T-shirt) and that she was going to track him down and give it to him on 4/20. Is this true? I have been researching Columbine but i have never read about this. Btw your blog is phenomenal!

and thank you. 🙂
where is CVA’s update?
DID YOU SEE CVA’S NEW VIDEO ABOUT THE UPDATE
But of course. Hopefully, someone thirsty enough to see Dyl eating a donut (for all of 2 sec no doubt) will be heading on a mission to Tennessee soon. I find it rather annoying that ABC won’t give CVA that segment. Don’t they realize the more they resist the more alluring they all make it? They are basically giving us the message that the footage is too provocative to release for purchase but anything other GMA thing they have archived is not a problem to sell. Stupid. Hell, we’d all be willing to raise money to see it and I doubt we’d spare any expense to do so. That’s how nuts this bunch is. lol You gotta love CVA for basically saying ‘now, team, don’t go doing this’ and then he proceeds to instruct exactly what he’s asking anyone of us that’s ballsy enough to do not to do. Very Slytherin of him. 😉
do you think eric knew that dylan has suicidal? or just knew they shared a common hate for the jocks?
Answered before here.
How do you think Dylan’s family feels about Dylan’s friends being paid for giving away home footage of Dylan eg Nate
Well, of course, we already knew this about Nate selling the video tape that contained the Morning Ritual video footage for $16,000. And to give a bit of background: Nate made the video for his real dad, Matthew, who lives in Florida to show him what Nate’s morning routine off to school was like along with his friend, Dylan. Nate gives his reasoning in the article below as to why he decided to sell the rights to his video to ABC News (and allegedly also the National Enquirer for $10,000). His real father, Matt, was in support of his son doing so which affronted his stepfather, Victor Good, and his real mother, Julie, whom Nate lived with in Littleton, CO. Then again, Nate was offended by his mother’s reaction to Columbine and her retrospect paranoia of him being friends with the two ‘killers’ so he left home immediately and headed to live with his father in Florida.
I honestly don’t think the Klebold’s fault Nate for doing what he did with the video/material. Nate was basically exploited by the media in the middle of a desperate, vulnerable situation. Sue and Tom knew Nate well as he spent a lot of time at their house and saw him as a good, close, friend of Dylan’s. I would imagine they felt utterly sympathetic for eighteen-year-old Nate and the horrible shock and grief struck turmoil he was in the midst of as a result of their son’s actions. So, Nate’s impulsive decision to sell his video of him and his friend to take care of immediate, dire problems would have been understandable – yes, even in receiving what most people would consider ‘blood money’ just so that he could survive through the fallout of the tragedy and get on with his life making a fresh start in another state and being able to afford college. We also know based on Sue’s book that Nate had some hand in helping her complete her book, “A Mother’s Reckoning’. Sue mentions in her book that Nate still pays the Klebold’s a visit to this day when he is in the area.
Family torn apart in wake of Columbine
Posted: Tuesday, June 29, 1999
By Dn Luzadder, Scripps Howard News Service
LITTLETON, Colo. – Victor Good’s house seems uncommonly quiet as he sits at his desk near a window that looks out on Columbine High School.
Gone are the sounds he describes as those of “normal, awkward teenagers,” which, until recently, included his stepson, Nathan Dykeman, 18, Nathan’s best friend, Dylan Klebold, and Dylan’s friend, Eric Harris.
From a balcony upstairs in the tidy home, Good and his stepson watched through binoculars two months ago as SWAT teams surrounded Columbine. They saw, at that distance, wounded student Patrick Ireland’s desperate plunge out of the school library window.
It is where Good first heard Nathan’s chilling prediction: that Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris were the boys with the guns who killed 12 students, a teacher and themselves, and wounded about two dozen others.
Now it is where Good and his wife, Julie, Nathan’s mother, mourn a different kind of loss: They haven’t seen Nathan since three days after the shooting.
They haven’t even spoken with him since he packed his bags and left home with his biological father, Matt Dykeman, to move to Florida, Good said.
Nathan walked out on his graduation, on the funeral of his best friend and on the only family he has known for the past six years. (*note that Nate did not attend Dylan’s funeral only his stepdad and mom attended.)
The images left to the Goods were from Nathan’s national television appearance on ABC’s “Good Morning America” where he talked about his two friends.
And from the story that appeared about him in the supermarket weekly National Enquirer.
Both media organizations, Good said, paid Nathan thousands of dollars for his appearance – something Good and his wife warned Nathan not to take, something Good said, bitterly, has helped disrupt their family.
“His ‘Disney dad’ is responsible for that,” Good said.
Good said Nathan was paid $16,000 by ABC for an innocuous videotape he and Dylan Klebold had made. He also said an ABC producer called their home and offered them money for an appearance, and suggested they might make “$2 (million) or $3 million” from a book deal later on.
Good said they weren’t interested.
He said the media’s luck changed after Nathan left his Colorado home.
Reached at his father’s home in Florida, Nathan tells a different story.
“I was broke. I had to leave my truck in Oklahoma where it broke down,” he said. “Now my college tuition is paid for. I’ve been criticized enough for this. What was it I did wrong? I know at least a dozen people who were offered money from the media.”
Nathan says he wasn’t paid for an interview, but for the videotape that Klebold and he made of a trip to school.
He did enter into an agreement with the National Enquirer, which he now says distorted, mischaracterized and misquoted what he said.
The Goods’ trauma may seem less dramatic than the devastation that descended upon the families whose children died or were wounded by the two high school killers.
But Good said it seems as though they have lost a child.
“April 20 was the longest day of our lives,” Good said. “It’s like it took a month or more to turn the page on the calendar, to try to get on with living.”
“I suspect there will be a lot of families who will face something like this,” said John Kiekbush, chief of investigations for the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Department and lead investigator in the case.
“This is the kind of thing that can happen to people who go though these kinds of traumatic experiences,” he said.
“It’s very hard to understand,” said Good, his voice cracking. “Nathan was so close to his mother; he was kind of a mama’s boy. His mother sat by the phone all day on Mother’s Day. The phone never rang.”
Nathan said the fallout came over the reaction of his stepfather and mother when they learned that his friends Klebold and Harris were the killers. He said it was as if they ceased to trust him, to believe him. They were terrified, he said, that he was somehow involved.
“They tore apart my room,” he said. “They threw away my heavy metal CDs, anything that had a skull on it or something like that. I couldn’t believe the way they treated me.” [Source]

Was journaling like a popular teen thing in the 90’s?
No. Journaling is just how some people choose to express themselves since time immemorial. I know it may be hard to believe in this device cray age of ours. 😉
What high school “cliche” would Eric and Dylan be? The “burnouts” ? Or the “emo edgy” kids?
The computer geek outcasts.
