So all for naught my
Trying to get a brother in law
Up in Lodi to long wrong way and he "whatever man'd", me
Saying look at the map it was
A far fetch & then "half way to L.A."
will turkey dinner be any more uncomfortable?
Is that even possible?
00pS, drooling icicle?
from Werner he was saying something about getting beat down on El Cap,
The top four pitches covered in a sheet of ice of ice of wall in winter.
Trapped in a freezing waterfall, summit or plummet
Glad to hear that you have a ride
and that all goes well of course
and save, ED what we here needed too, so take down the Idtis no safph, iree,aye mon?!

kFLASH brings you the straight skinny from a buncha ssttrraightt skkinny dickheads who love to play with campfires--The Flamous Fames!!!!
Bob Zimmerman goes to camp.
http://www.thetower.org/article/was-my-jewish-summer-camp-trying-to-indoctrinate-me/
Angry birds cannot flock together.
But both are birds of a feather?
Not "What gives?" but
"Who giveth what?"
http://www.thetower.org
KUMBAYA. There, it's out their. I'm one of "them." So shoot me, Indira. Stab me, Farouk. Cut off me beard, me hearties. We're no longer welcome. The pirate ship AmeriKa Ra has grounded, we're beset on most sides (Canada? You hear?), and our timbers are shivered.
But look, Boss! It's das Boot! And it's flying Campfire colors. WE ARE SAVED, BOSS! Unless they hand us over to the Coast Guard and ship us to Git....
The Campfire Girls of America morphed into the Campfire Boys and Girls of America in 1975 when membership eligibility was expanded to include boys...but only those who wanted to, really. At least at first. Especially in Mennesoda, eh? CBGA then became Campfire USA in 2001. It is currently called just plain Campfire. It all began...well, you can google it just as easy as pie, so do it if you are so inclined. But the most important thing, from the standpoint of a marijuana user like myself, that would be that they have mints, while the Girl Scouts have cookies.
They're currently using terms like coed, inclusive, service learning. Not gonna comment. Just reporting. It is strange, though. Knot surprised, though. I guess I'm ambivalent and blase. But I feel better informed.
The history of both the Campfire and the GSUSA, the current correct name of the Girl Scouts, go back to the years 1910-1913, when they sorted out the organizations. The Camp Fires rejected a bid by Daisy Low to merge with her group in Savannah. It went on like that. Don't forget the Girl Guides. That organization was also involved.
The only girl guide who I ever met was Ellie Hawkins, and that was only in passing on Pywiack Dome, Coke Spoon, 5.9, just a cakewalk for EH. I wish that I could have seen her at Oakdale and said, like, "Come on, you don't remember, 'Flash?' Me and that kid from the Upper Peninsula? The one that made the joke about the diapers?" I mean, that girl could really move quickly. She wasted no time getting out of there after that story.
Almost like a female Werner, she was. Or so it now seems. She looked great in her pics from the Festival, I must say.
The lyric, "Campfire boys and girls wontcha come out tonight," has not the same ring to it, the same zing to it, as the good old lyrics with the non-coed question. It's uneven, too. And definitely not funky, either. Blame PC (Polite Chipmunk, as in Polite Elephant).
So break out that pack of chocolate marshmallows and straighten out some coat-hangers, men and women. We adult campers like toasted momellows as much now as ever.
And wine. Beer. Weed. But eat first.
Got a smoke?
PLANE OF HEAVEN (or Tea of Heaven is timely, too.)
Break out the uke
Drink until you puke
The ditties are dirty
The women all are purty
And we have a ton of weed
The Teton Tea's a brewin'
I don't know what yer doin'
The marshmellows are toastin'
We're all here a-boastin'
That we've got a ton of weed
It came out of the lake
There for us to take
And take it all we did
Oh, WAY more than a lid
Yeah, man...we found a ton of weed
The coals are dark and red
It must be time for bed
But before we all are done
Let's roll another one
Cuz we have a ton of weed (It's really top drawer)
Yeah, we got a ton of weed (And it's all home-grown)
Oh yeah, we've smoked a ton of weed (Are we done yet?)
Baked on a ton of weed (We're really toasted)
Love smokin' weed every day (It's good for you-ou-ou)
"News" naturally comes singin' the "blues," child.
So the blues rule the news.
But where or what is the down side, the blues side, of having a ton of free weed?
Someone should write a book.

Take heed of stormy wethers
Don't wear fur or feathers
Wait fir my tree wings to be flapping
The wind blows but goes nowhere
And there isn't anyplace I'm going to
"Maybe into the hole that He's in?"
I'm not sleepy and there is no place I'm going to
Hey, Mr. Tambourine Man, play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning, I'll come followin' you
"Is it ALL phoney?"
"Except for phoresy."
(And the Blitzo holes.)Last but not least...well, maybe the least because it looks so small...the MisterE Wobbler, a flighty one, but a single-minded climber. It's rate of climb is among the fastest ever recorded in the Western Hemisphere.
Period.
Oh, and the rooftop kitty. Can't neglect the cat.

In brief: Joint growth
The physeal plates are at the ends of your bones.
This is where the longitudinal growth of bone takes place when you are still young. At skeletal maturity it closes up and no more growth occurs. "epi" means above so the "epiphysis" is the area above the physis, like the epidermis is above the dermis in the skin. The epiphsis is at the end of the bone and forms a joint with the bone next to it.

Mairzy Doats
I know a ditty, nutty as a fruitcake
Goofy as a goon and silly as a loon
Some call it pretty, others call it crazy
But they all sing this tune:
Mairzy doats And dozy doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
Yes! Mairzy doats And Dozy Doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
If the words sound queer and funny to your ear,
A little bit jumbled and jivey,
Sing "Mares eat oats and does eat oats
And little lambs eat ivy"
Oh! mairzy doats and dozy doats
And liddle lamzy divey
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you - oo?
A kiddley divey too, wouldn't you?
it's no harder speaking that-a-way than it is to speak (rite, i mean, write?) in norwegian, bud
foreign example
these threads he concepts
in his isolatry
woden's shoe is birdseye wood
his mares eat oaks
his liddel lambs get scarified in trench-mouth warfare
oh what big sot teeth they have
allies all look the same in their twelve-ounce cans
dead boulderers lying there
in talus requiescat in pace
painted rum red, bone white and ameriblue
kill u some ivy, too
but spare the lambs, see?
My father, Boomer, used to love to sing Mairzy Doats when we drove long distances. We could never match him. The words were...weird.
and
his main song, and one on which Mom joined in to sing,
and we kids (once we began thinking that we understood "syncopatience"--took a little while,
lots of trips up and back from Sac to Redding visiting folks0, was this little ditty.[Click to View YouTube Video]

Sue (Or In a Season of Crime)
by David Bowie
Sue
I've got the job
We'll buy the house
You'll need to rest
But now we'll make it
Sue
The clinic called
The x-ray's fine
I brought you home
I just said home(?)
Sue you said you want it written
Sue, the virgin on your stone
For your grave
Why too dark to speak the words
For I know that you have a son
Oh, folly, Sue
Ride the train, I'm far from home
In a season of crime none need atone
I've kissed your face
Sue, I've pushed you down beneath the weeds(?)
Endless fate in hopeless deeds
I kissed your face
I touched your face
Sue, goodbye
Sue, I found your note
That you wrote last night
It can't be right
You went with him
Sue, I never dreamed
I'm such a fool
Right from the start
You went with that clown

Ay! que bonito es volar,
a las 2 de la mañana,
a las 2 de la mañana,
Ay! que bonito es volar, ay mamá!.
Volar y dejarse caer,
en los brazos de una dama
ay! que bonito es volar,
a las 2 de la mañana, ay mamá!
Me agarra la bruja
me lleva a su casa,
me vuelve maceta
y una calabaza.
Me agarra la bruja
me lleva al cerrito,
me vuelve maceta
y un calabazito.
Ay! dígame, dígame,
dígame usted,
¿cuántas criaturitas
Se ha chupado usted?
Ninguna, ninguna,
ninguna no sé,
ando en pretenciones
de chuparme a usted.
Repite Ay! me espantó una mujer,
¿a dónde?
en medio del mar salado,
en medio del mar salado,
ay! me espantó una mujer Ay mamá!
Por qué no queria creer
lo que otros me habian contado
lo de arriba era mujer
y lo de abajo pezcado, ay mamá!
Cuando a mi mujer la encuentro acostada
le jalo las colchas no me dice nada
cuando a mi mujer la encuentro durmiendo
le jalo las colchas y salgo corriendo
Ay! dígame, dígame
dígame usted
¿Cuántas criaturitas
se ha chupado usted?
ninguna, ninguna
ninguna no sé,
ando en pretenciones
de chuparme a usted.
A la bruja me encontre
en el aire iba volando
en el aire iba volando
a la bruja me encontre, ay mamá!
Entonces le pregunté:
que ¿a quién andaba buscando?
me dijo ¿Quién es usted?
soy cantador de huapango, ay mamá!
Escóndete Chepa,
escóndete Juana,
que ahí anda la bruja
debajo de la cama.
Escóndete Chepa
escóndete Joba,
que ahí anada la bruja
volando en su escoba.
Ay! dígame, dígame
dígame usted
¿Cuántas criaturitas
se ha chupado usted?
ninguna, ninguna
ninguna no sé,
ando en pretenciones
de chuparme a usted.

Burglary in Florida
(Courtesy of Johnny Feaver.)
Sometimes things that really happen are funnier than stuff made up:
When southern Florida resident Nathan Radlich's house was burglarized recently, thieves ignored his wide screen plasma TV, his VCR, and even left his Rolex watch.
What they did take, however, was a white box filled with a grayish-white powder. (That's the way the police report described it.)
A spokesman for the Fort Lauderdale police said that it looked similar to high grade cocaine and they'd probably thought they'd hit the big time.
Later, Nathan stood in front of numerous TV cameras and pleaded with the burglars: "Please return the cremated remains of my sister, Gertrude. She died three years ago."
The next morning, the bullet-riddled corpse of a local drug dealer known as Hoochie Pevens was found on Nathan's doorstep. The white box was there too; about half of Gertrude's ashes remained.
Scotch taped to the box was this note which said: "Hoochie sold us the bogus blow, so we wasted Hoochie. Sorry we snorted your sister. No hard feelings. Have a nice day."
And you thought California was the land of fruits and nuts?
[FYI fun fact: CA has more zombies, per capita, than FL according to the last census.]

THE DRUNK POETS SOCIETY MEETS TODAY AT REINERO'S. Be there or be square.
Allen Tate.He was a white supremacist but a good poet.

Allen Tate reading Winter Mask (To the memory of W.B. Yeats)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGHbRNTJI80
Not a poet, not norwegian.
Mikhail Lomonosov, Born-dated today in 1711. Wrote Epistle on the Usefulness of Glass--it helps beer to taste better and photographs could not be made without it, all I really wanna know about glass.
He may have looked something like this, according to Moswood, the official Russian state music organ.[Click to View YouTube Video]
Billy Sunday, the baseball player (no glove era) and popular preacher. He was a big hit when people flocked to hear him lay down the word, especially on the gentle art of bunting, a burning topic among fans.
Converted to evangelical Christianity in the 1880s, Sunday left baseball for the Christian ministry. He gradually developed his skills as a pulpit evangelist in the Midwest and then, during the early 20th century, he became the nation's most famous evangelist with his colloquial sermons and frenetic delivery.
Sunday held widely reported campaigns in America's largest cities, and he attracted the largest crowds of any evangelist before the advent of electronic sound systems.
He also made a great deal of money and was welcomed into the homes of the wealthy and influential. Sunday was a strong supporter of Prohibition, and his preaching likely played a significant role in the adoption of the Eighteenth Amendment in 1919.
Despite questions about his income, no scandal ever touched Sunday.
