first modelfest of 08

about 20 models came over last night to have some hot buttered cider and try on some old t-shirts. there were a few rookies in the mix but you couldn't tell from the photos.














it was a great time, i'm down a couple chairs, but they've been wobbly & crappy since day 1

huckapoo

is it a joke that this man might be nominated for the presidency? do these huckabees represent america today? god i hope not.

little america

nothing's ever easy
burnt fuses busted lights
coke and seeds for breakfast
melted guardrail sights

blinded in a snowdrift
glad to be alive
fleeting rolling drama
no one here can drive

flickr is pretty cool. there are millions of 'groups' people have started where anybody can add pictures so you get these global photo albums full of similar subjects. there's a group for photos of cavalier king charles spaniels, for instance.

and one for "Dogs that Lay Like Frogs"

lay vs lie grammar aside, superman dogs are fun to look at

responsibility & abundance

i was supposed to be in falls church virginia right now, tea leaf green about to start ripping sh!t up at the state theater, a big reunion of old friends from up & down the coast, new year's kickoff party vibe at its height, but after a tragicomedy of errors and a string of sad stories involving trains, heart attacks, donuts, and 90% precipitation, i'm here instead. i cancelled my hotel in time & will called my ticket to a friend, so there's no loss, other than my missing the greenest time ever that's about to start.



one of the coolest things i got for christmas this year was from mappy camper - it's a paper box with scores of words on little pieces of paper inside, and every morning i shake it around & pull out a couple & think about it. for instance, yesterday (black widow hunting) i got "courage" and "flexibility." today's were 'responsibility' and 'abundance' and i think the lesson to teach myself in this situation is to take 'responsibility' for my dogs and self by staying here, and don't worry there will be an 'abundance' of tea leaf green shows in north carolina, south carolina, tennessee, georgia, and/or virginia that i will be able to get to in '08.

cool present, isn't it?
