Morning night s and a harty hello
Feeling well I hope
just as the time is so
his sweet son was ....is
Was a child who shared time, and it was a hard thing to watch, Him go/grow
He pre facial hair was sweet and mellow the perfect mix of
sensitive and wry the opportunity to get....out ,Up ..Above..
was so limited the community so full of drek & gack
garbage (Only hear enough of this to set back drop, band was personal frnds and Suzanne ,The ?leader, was the bain of my first klmbing pardrea) [Click to View YouTube Video]
that Service (not a bad thing) was His way to grow beyond the valley called Clove.
that valley too is magic it gets locked in when it snows
The water is sweet the springs still today provide
When I and my, dare to travel there, We bring home buckets and buckets full.
sorry..... drifting(but Happiegrl? knows)
the man that the boy has become is hiding fine timber.
but his straight military pose and what he has done and seen,
as a Ranger for Special Forces makes it sad that the sensitive
has to take such a far away backseat
my wife and I gave and gave to his trouble as a teen with a lovesick hart.
Need
was messing him up.
I took it as a personal task to keep him from jumping,
As many teens he knew were sucked into China junk that was closing out young lives all around

this is all at the hi peacenik family of poets and the center for symbolic studies
run by another you may have briefly met Stephen, not Steven (although I suspect that pic, up thread is one and the same)Larson,....
JC was as I said A buck in heat and the doe of his desire felt that they two, having grown up together, we're headed nowhere new 'nd exciting.... youth and love...(things tht make ya go Hmm)
Love and youth powerful juju sad hard stuff to watch
As she was the child of Robin a grand women ma to many but birth mom to two Merlin and
the very fair Gwynivier. ...[Click to View YouTube Video]......[Click to View YouTube Video]
so sorry that at this crux moment I must.... Stop
stop .... but say it is hard to watch children others, your own, and even strangers grow up.
Mine now need me to drive, having missed the school bus
later........more

Back... but with no time. All are still sick here, and so I wear the Skirt.
Still I got the legs to pull it off

are you well? Damn A thumbless joe?? And that tore up knee I was not even going to say any thing about any of the health but(neebee is a good sole )and it might have come off as uncaring let me know and these last few lines can go..
Otay Norwegian this is it for me for a bit
that the influence of the Merced and Suhl reached us boys both is cool. He and Craft once bodily threw the pint size me at a Ledge hold above their heads and we all laughed, they were in control and I had faith they could have caught me flying past...(clear idea of physics, not)
If I had missed that grab ... who knows what .....
as we were a generation apart it was fun for all and all for fun.
(I have shared some Scotch and stories with 'em along time ago)

Embryonic journey? Egg yolka? Potentially a very good climbing partner, aside from being blind?
You be the Wapner. You decide. If not a good clumbin' pard, the yolk's on me.
Does it help she's Italian?

Why only brown embryo holders?
Please re-elect the Bushes. You'll make some Rush-ians happy. I can see it now, from my front porch.

Fly-over by Norcal Crosswinds.
Finally, I'm off to Fresno to visit the Vets Administration Hospital about "my hernia."
The Veterans can wait. I did.

Sad to relate a death in my small circle of local friends.
His name is Michael Dwyer, his lady is Susan, my former co-worker in the bookshop.
Mike was a minister of the gospel and had a small congregation. The couple inherited land just south of town on the 99 and built their own home.
Just venting, as it's been two weeks plus since he passed on, but today on the road to the VA I happened to mention the little road we passed on the left, the east side of the highway. It's immediately across from the place in the above photo, a former haunt of one of my ideels. (Yes, DMT, I confess to three ideels...more later.)
Oh, speaking of the VA visit, I need to go again in a week to get lab work done, then they'll take care of the problem the following week on Monday, the 24th.
Whew! It went well today, considering it was my first time in a labryinth like that behemoth with two wings and a Sierras elevator and a Huntington Lake elevator. They were efficient, mellow, and I got a grate lewk from their fourth floor over Fresburg with its display of trees...lots and lots of Trees of Heaven, neebee. Just like here, only about fifty times more of them!
A specialshout out to Gene, if you're paying attention. Sorry we couldn't get together, and I'm looking forward to the next gig, amigo.

good morning I have nothing much to say
the bug that the spew that undertook life in my sweetly' belly brought home
has now effected me with a full stop talking case of laryngitis.
if anyone doubts that the germs are the work things of nature trying to rid Mother Earth
of human the alien life form on the planet.
they must explain how after going thirty years
living in dust dirt and the back of mobile dumpsters,vans, cars, and trucks, with out ever getting sick.
that now uncomfortable sickness cycles rinse repeat throw up.in my stable badly aired hillside home.
no nothing to say just a scream into the wind and a sad mother cross
she is in her yearly eighties and a multiple personality sufferer when she drinks.....every night.
this always taints the planning of the holidays and then we get together and things are tense but usually all right this year will bring many changes while nothing changes.
My sister called to say she and her ken doll hubby will be east from L.A.
Her brood two boys one confused gay but the adventurer of that side of the family.
and the other bald at twenty young shaving his head and all over social media. He seems
as twenty something's are wont to do is searching for the meaning of life.
any whosawitzer it promises to be fun new and. not

Oh, splendid shot!
No vacant lot.
Like it a lot.
Here's what I got.
About climbing it is not.
Three Tree of Heavens went into a bar.
"Heavens, three betsies," sez the firet Tree of Heaven to the bartender, whom we'll call Heavens for the sake of anonymitree.
Mike Heavens. He's Irish, fer Gawdsake.
So, Mike, he replies, "Heaven't got a single bitty bit of Betty left, bra."
But I've got shots of you fellers at the fall get-together: here...have a look."
He pulls out his camera phone...they all gather in a group and gawk.
Voila!
They settle for three of what's on tap...Very near Middle Earth is this outland on a corner by the florist and it's a little forest near the big old county park.
But it's private property and not a spot to spend the night, like.
"A doss here would be inviting a patrol car's light," sez Mike. "Neighbors, see? But it's shady on a summer day. Wanna 'nother round, guys?"
"Naw, thank you," sez the third Tree of Heaven. "Let us get the hell out of here. Three Tree of Heavens are company, four's asking for a controlled burn."
Ba-dink.
How's that weather in San Diego, zBrown? Is that paper getting spotted or are you getiing more browned, drowned or what?
And T Hocking, how's the Redding report?
neebee has got snowed on good and it's colder than normal.
Santa hasn't checked in yet.

Hey, Big Mike, got some crack for ya!This is on the corner of M and 20th. It used to be a really old and thick deodar that grew here, over the roof of the house belonging to the Correia family. It's two blocks from Our Lady of Mercy Church, where all thirteen or fourteen of the family's kids were baptized, served mass, etc. They were very good Catholics. The location now is that of the relatively new Superior Court.I found four kinds of berrie-like fruit on the corner. Pyracantha berries, rose hips, a plum tree of sorts, and another several trees with red fruit. There were birds in this tree.And then there were camellias.I wandered down 20th Street.

Amid all this Veterans' Day hoopla and jingoism, we have this interview with Blase "Blaze" Bonpane a sort of political/religious/historical critic and activist who's been around and seen a lot.
Uprising Interview/Author of Imagine No Religion, Blase Bonpane
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFLI--E4Bwo
Suggested by one of our good Flames friends.
Give it a listen, please.
It should read: "Good will toward men leads to peace on earth and good will toward women leads to peace around the hearth."--MFM
