Kelly says “cool, you clobbered me completely with that collaboration of the copper clapper Cleveland caper.” :)

Hi Suz!

Keep the Carson clips coming!

nahant!! dude!

hey suz. nice one!

hey nahant

hey kelly

Gots a poem. want to hear it? it is a revision of an old one.

Mary!! Has it cooled down there yet??

hey newton

ubetcha

Yes. I is quite nice. It was, maybe, 89 today.

wOOt … Poetry time !

Apples

I go to the grocery store and browse for apples.
Reds, goldens, grannies, and black alabama’s lie in wait
for my brush, and eventually, my mouth.
I think of biting into their thin skins and
remember the feel of the sable tool
on the wet paper.
The produce man can never figure out why I am
always there.
It is the off set orbs that I long for. And I am the
wiser for it.

Hiya Suz !

Hiya Newt !

So did anyone see Michele Malkin on the sunday talking head show? Was she an able replacement for the intellectual heft puffery that is George Will?
Did she at least try and appear sane?

Sure go ahead:)

portland broke a record today – 9th day in a row of temps over 90 with a 94 today. tomorrow they may break today’s record but it is supposed to cool down this week and may even rain.

Hi, Suz!

Hi, Pups!

How’s everyone’s evening?

FunnyWheelieDiva

hey petro

She needs to seriously try and disappear.

hey things

hey funny

oooooooooh i like that mary

Hey Suz

Dam still to hot… we hit maybe 78 or so!! Down to the low 60’s now!

How old was that record 3 days of 90 degrees in the summer was a heat wave when I lived there I wonder how the roses are doing? I wonder how Washington’s apples are doing?

how’s everyone doing tonight?

1961 iirc was when they had 8 days in a row over 90

hiya Suzanne

We have the whole house fan on. It is perfect inside and out.

hey teddy

Love it, Mary !

WingNut Welfare makes sure she is always in the news while our people are lucky to get 5 minutes.

It gets really hot up in Placerville, CA. And there are tons of orchards up there. We are gonna make apple butter this year.

Thanks. and Thanks Suz, too.

What Petro said!
Well done, Mary!

I only wish I could paint–in a fine art, still life sense.

FWDiva

Ok thats older than me I suppose global warming is not getting covered by the news yet nationally.

COOL??? but it was 70’s outside not in the house… great for hanging out by our little pond….

i love making apple butter – plan on making some from the freedom appletrees here. the apples on a few of the trees are starting to redden up.

me too – tis a skill i’ve coveted for a long time

As long as the apples are fine Washington has great apples. Illinois well taste one and you can understand why Americans don’t eat that much fruit.

Hiya FD !

I was a terrible artist growing up … loved numbers and Science, no patience for drawing !

Somewhere along the way helping my kids to draw, I became fairly decent at it. There is an artist inside you, meditate and set it free …

OK, don’t slay me, but I have a piece of poetry too.

Images and Things

“All that is fleeting
Is but an image.”
I heard that in some music one time
Ever since then
I’ve thought that was true.

Another time I heard
“The thing itself”
And found it ineffable.
And since then
I’ve thought that was true, too

Now don’t you know I find
things are fleeting
and images are ineffable.
I supposed I asked for it.
And now I think that’s true, too.

But once you taste apples from Maine… well you won’t go back… they are best once there has been a frost or two…. especially the Macs

Just got back from Paul Thorn, and Paul Thorn + band were GREAT.

YEEHA!

Well pups We are getting LOST again… so nitey nite early pups…

G’night Nahant.

One more. this one is about pears. i never know anymore if i have shown these to you guys yet.

Crystaline Pear

Standing at the sink,
I bite into a crystaline pear.
Working the meat from the skin
sweet fluid slides down my throat.
Two places.
I am two places at once.
With you and eating
a pear, alone, in my kitchen.
My feet are planted on the floor.
No shoes, just socks.
Color becomes charged with brighter hues
and I am with you.
Your taste, your smell and the texture
of your smile wake in me.
The old dog barks to go outside
and a car rushes past the rectangles
and mitered joints of my house.
I stand where I am and smile,
enjoying the feeling of dual citizenship.
The moon rests translucent
behind the vapid clouds
and pear juice rolls down my arm
to my crooked elbow and falls
into the porcelain sink.

Ok I will try to get there but probably not this year.

This has been eating my brain whole the last day. *grin* New material for my future gigs.

Roomie hunt is still on, but i know i’ll find something. For now? i groove. *chairdances*

Thanks, Petro, that’s very kind.

I have so many art/craft supplies in my house it isn’t funny. It’s just the representational drawing I’m not good at…and sculpting. Aaaaaand putting away my toys so I actually have a place to work on projects….Aaaaaand…nemmermine!

FWDiva

that was wonderfull kelly – thank you for sharing

hey that guy (she said jealously)

It is truly good.

g’nite nahant

hey alias

i like the fruit theme mary – you’ve not shared those before

Michigan’s orchards aren’t that bad, i have to admit. Granted we’ve got orchards galore up and down the state. Washington apples are definitely good though. :D

Nite Nahant

Yum.
Poem and apples both. Hi Mary and everyone.

hey margot

Margot! How are you?

Just catching in, saw the clip.

Damn, Suz, that’s priceless . . . . man, I remember them both in my early teens and adult years . . .

Wow . . . . ya scored gal. Or guy . . . I knew a guy named Suz . . . or I knew a song about a guy named Suz.

Maybe I knew of a guy who wrote and sang a song about a guy named Suz . . .

Or, maybe I knew someone who TOLD me about a guy, who wrote a song, and sang it, about a guy, named Suz.

Ok, I admit, I don’t know squat . . . *G*

That’s wild!

Besides dual citizenship and barking dogs, if you’d have put wine in there I would have fallen out of my damn chair! As it was you just got a big giant lurch out of me. :)

Wow.

LMAO

hey larue – i hated that song when i was a pre-teen type. i’ve grown to appreciate it now that i’m old.

Got ‘im again next Sunday, too. Effin GREAT show. We’re invited to sound check next week at Little Fox. Helps to know the d00ds in the band ;)

[blush] Thanks.

Thanks to you too Suz

Nah, only 84F here . . . but we’re a few miles closer to the deltas . . . *G*

Insane summer we’re having, following the longest and kewlest spring I recall since ‘88 . . . .

Way, way too kewl all along . . . and poor Busted hit 107F in Portland and had a heat wave that broke all time records . . .

El Nino?

We might get clobbered this winter Mister Sister . . . . got water wings? *G*

Funny. When I wrote that I was living in wine country-Sonoma.

Brilliant !

Okay, my mouth watered that time …

{{{ Mary }}}

grrrrr

Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap! Snap! (in five, of course)

Ah HAH! I KNEW it!

There was some smoky wine approach in there. Maybe under the leaves. Or on top of the grass. :]

>:-D

George S and his other guests pretty much politely torched her ass.

I gotta figger George and his producers had her on to shame her, and the 23%.

She’s moonbeam batshit crazy, and tried to talk in cliche’s using ‘media speak’ words and phrases like ‘optics’.

But the econ educated amongst the show’s panel pretty much shot her ass down.

What a twit, and man, I’m sorry to twits everywhere for lumping her in with the rest of yas . . . *G*

Hey Suz

Alias !

If you keep chanting “Jai Ho”, it actually stimulates your energy and increases it to the point where you feel invigorated and all weakness disappear.

It is a very powerful mantra and yeah, I loved the movie very much ! *g*

writing this down – how is it pronounced?

If you keep chanting “Hey Ho” in the zip code next door to me, you’ll either have a “happy ending” for $20, or the cops show up and ruin your day. :)

If you’re interested in it, shoot me an e-mail reminder and I’ll send you more details.

There is a mantra for every condition and ailment … not that I know all of them { yet }

Tomorrow is the last day of the Caribana Party in Toronto and I’ll be away enjoying every second of it … G’nite all !

ROFL !!!

Shit. and we need a new roof.

Links this sounds interesting?

g’nite petro – will do

I am heading out, too. Have to get up early in a.m. See you tomorrow folks!

The song is invigorating on its own! i LOVE the sheer energy of it, hence why it became an earworm for me, and will become part of my future continent hopping sets.

I’ve been looking for music like this for some time. I hadn’t realized that a lot of bollywood was playing around with techno too!

g’nite mary mc

Great News every now and then I wish I still had tv watching Malkin get the Smack almost worth it.:)

Nite Mary

Adios folks – nice to have yakked. Big day tomorrow.

Cheers – k

Yep. She got absolutely drilled while complaining about unemployment benefits being a disincentive for job-seeking. The others on the panel were polite about it, but it was a brutal truth-down on her.

They want skanks on ABC, they got them.

This aint poetry, but I’ve got an ear bug…
Still missing a line though:

Your politics stinks, all you do is fling poo

OK, now I’m really out.

uh huh
yeah

right
(laughing – been there)

Heh, I saw it on Teh Toobz . . . . no cable here . . . but yeah, there ARE them moments of glory for us . . *G* *waves*

Damn you Suz!

Damn you!

[I surrender]

Bingo – Thanks!

I still think it was an intentional set up . . . . but why the MSM owned and operated by the 1% would turn on a rightwingturd mouthpiece? I haven’t figgered that one out yet . . . . ;-)

Maybe it’s time for them to reach out to the other side, cuz ad dollars are down?

Hard times, any way ya look at it . . . and the loonz run rampant in hard timez.

laughing…. if i only had a moustache to twirl….

sleep well kelly

Thanks mod for keepin me up to speed with the Pups, but it’s time for this one to lie low.

The morrow is fret with reality of daily life and things to do . . .

May you all find your inner ‘to do’ . . .*G* *waves*

g’nite larue

This is a woman who thinks internment of Japanese-Americans was a good thing. Hosting this person on your air is not exactly a show of encouraging a free exchange of ideas from differing ends of a political spectrum. Arguing that she is just another point of view is ludicrous. ABC should be grossly humiliated at this display.

On MSNBC, you either wear the shit these people have caked on their shoes when they enter your studio, or you get a hip-check from your viewers. But not the Tool-Time™ network. Fuck the mouse.

jeez, did everyone fall asleep all at once?

Hi Suzanne
Cut two more minutes of off my running time to 7.15 minute a mile. Getting close to those 6 plus minute miles.

Hiya TCU !

No links, just 23+ years of research. My Books, when they get published, will delve into mantras and other aspects of yoga, in layman terms.

The teachers who make it seem difficult or mysterious are just giving themselves a lot of importance … it’s easy peasy.

Out for realsies … and don’t try to hold me back, newt ! *g*

I’ll be toasting all of you at the picnic tomorrow !

All next weel fog for Los Osos. Was a beautiful sunny day today.

hey bb – dayam impressive dood

toasting hell – i want a doggie bag (laughing) g’nite for realsies petro

My Books, when they get published

Your writing books when will they get published?

I still think it was an intentional set up . . . . but why the MSM owned and operated by the 1% would turn on a rightwingturd mouthpiece? I haven’t figgered that one out yet

Good question Why set Malkin up

Newtonusr @ 108

Hosting this person on your air is not exactly a show of encouraging a free exchange of ideas from differing ends of a political spectrum. Arguing that she is just another point of view is ludicrous.

Newt also has a point she does not deserve to be on tv much less filling in for George Will next to Newt one of the GOP’s best attempts at a man of reason and ideas?
Thats a mismatch like punk rockers showing up at a Dead show. I don’t think they cared about getting a proper replacement for George Will they needed an excuse to get Michelle on.
And instead of the usual cake walk of easy questions it seems they nailed her.
Why is a good question.

Try publishing an e book online or just do a few diaries to warm up.
Nite folks bye

g’nite things

Suz I went to find a youtube of M#lkin on that talking head show today. That was embarrassing!

margot you are braver than me — i can’t stand to see, hear, or read her.

*yawn* time for me to head out. thanks for the good conversation tonight.

g’nite all.

nite suz, thanks for the hospitality.
