Arthur Lee. Ya gotta Love him.

Prisoner of love or just a regular prisoner?

2001

Arthur Lee, the prime architect of Sixties rock legends Love, will be released from prison today, after serving almost six years of an eleven-year sentence. In 1996, Lee was convicted of possession of a firearm by an ex-felon and grossly negligent discharge of a firearm for allegedly shooting a gun in the air during a dispute with a neighbor.

Catching a cool day here today, actually, but when this withering heat hits I slither over thusly
Gin less tonic or slightly sour something ,green or brown bottle or a can In hand.
The spray is refreshing the sound of falling waters three troubled waters falling.


I was planning on showing off all the things that are overflowing here,.Anger adds sizzle to my morning brew, at half past five I scrubbed the last of this,,. then took the first shot, can you spot the tail of the 'Y' ? ( if you had not seen the other shot.?)
The
Also the local fountains I have these//. . .too much of everything is just enough,
A thought for Bushman and his Emma . . . .

TOPO EPIPHANY? It is the sudden manifestation or perception of the essential nature of this site. The suckage quotient is not relevant
because it cancels out. The remainder expresses the colossal genius of ST.


It may read like an infinite series of sophomoric twaddle from druggie burn outs, but True Climbing can be found hiding in unlikely threads.

Not unlike my car keys.

Also when the Lennon, Clapton . . .etAl video finished I watched the full show from Toronto,
The Jerry Lee Lewis, and the chuck berry Johnny B Goode, were as classic as any , then came the sad scary second, toned down ? Version of John & yoko,
They seem to be into Puddles if that means anything to you. The show was so good before the introduction again of the SCREamING, O ! NO! Bland, from that '69 Toronto show that has some stuff but o, O the screaming banshee! Sheesh, you have to wish and wonder what if? . . .?

Totally off topic, but from Eleanor Farjeon, the Isle of Mull and Cat Stevens, I give you one of my favorite morning songs for when you greet the dawn tomorrow, MFM. :) Thank for all the super dawn photos. Spectacular!

The weather is still hitting near 100F here, and today, coughing our way through the conversation as smoke swirled around us, we talked of evacuation plans and safety measures. I have been doing more clearing of combustibles from around the house these last days. We are not under evac. threat or even an evac. watch. But the fire crews are sending out speakers to prepare us for what looks to be a dry, hot season. I think all of the smoke we are breathing now is from Oregon or Idaho. I hope it clears more by morning.

But tomorrow morning, I will greet the day with this song. :)

ff

ps. Neebs, I need to check in with you so I'll email tomorrow.

ps2 zB, thank you for the UV radiation map. Very interesting.

feralfae,

Thank YOU!

We ALL thank you for

feralfae feedback

aka "stoke"

I'm sure you play ball like a girl.

(no offense)

and I'm sure you employ quite a "stroke"

because you keep putting the ball OVER the fence.

How's your arm at slow-pitching?

The Flames are gonna challenge the Stonemasters to a six-inning game.

Someday. It's too hot this week.

And we also want you to know we're hoping you're not "choking" later on today.

Edit twenty minutes after this all started.more . .

after 45 more minutes. . . . .

The boxed 'ink' is the resolution. . ..

Hey, this back at you . . .DFR,
Actually I did not use it !
Seems funny though ?
Seen it near what I recognize
In the pictures,
is there any chance there are any more?
That was a great trip!

now with out checking back I hope that that is the picture in Question?


See that , I'm told it is not Green Pond NJ, but Devils Lake,Wisconsin.
so that makes the less than intrepid, ( I'll translate later. . . )
almost remembered to bring both shoes this time,
Still, he backed down at seventy foot,
the length of an old old pitch back when we climbed with gold line.
The rope was 150 feet and we both hated fighting drag or twists.
We were scandalous in that the belayer on the ground did not tie in.
Doing so, not tying in, reduced.the twist.
There were even times when the cord twisted to the F U B A R, state,

that one holds up over time, SNAFU too,
but Effed up beyond all recognition . . . .
that one so covered what climbing with gold line and tied cord slings, hammer n' pins
was Ike.

Climbing with that old wave stuff was,
it was always some level of SNAFU but rare times it devolved, -FUBAR!
In the hope of avoiding the SNAFU, and FUBAR, da Free rider
even if you are following along
Who the hell is Da Free Rider any how ?
that one is past due to figure out.
He gave me the picture that is in doubt,
It is not what ?
but IS Devils lake?
Oops!
Dude ,
did I take that? It sure looks like I did!

Really? Thanx, yeah yeah, I know were I used it . . . . .?
I'll fix things - not. . ?
This was a try at doing that.




Next, I love the buried hex.
???what does this mean
And it is to hot to mine what ever your mind is my mind is made up. . . .

Did you all catch Gosht's playful word thread??


Yonkers? I can't remember a single one or the name of the thread?
I'll be back with the link , I hope and drink,

I confess to the Almighty Dollar, I only had three beers, Officer.

BB. Bobcat Brewing blonde brew, so refreshing after runnin' around, gettin' the run-around, smooth and restorative.

Spent time talking to an actual blonde, nearly my age, and I am restored like a computer.

Now for a Fourth of James Brown July.

A James Brown Fourth of July. *burp*

Thank you for all the good thoughts. I am not choking, but also not outside in the smoke. I'm trying to use some common sense, and no one has ever accused me of having much of that. Smoke is less today: I can see at least the silhouette of the Divide, out across the lake.
Throwing . . . the only throwing I have done in a long time is throwing clay. Yes, I throw like a girl. But if there is a competition, well then . . .

Wow, great James Brown video. That's totally the most high-energy flag-waving I have ever seen! Perfect for the Fourth.

In case anyone did not notice the link embedded in Cat Stevens' name, here it is. I think this is the protocol here, sorry for embedding the link inside a term.

LOL

I have a pit of broken and cast off pottery. I am leaving it for some future archaeologist to find, and then people will see my chop (signature) on some of the shards, and it will be cool to have people collect the bits I leave that are not in collections. :)

Yes, dogs have no use for pottery bits. But I have made a couple of porcelain dog bowls for Wonder Dogs I have known.

I had not heard Cat sing about his Dog.
