"the more you try to have your cake and eat it too, the crumbier it gets"
pearl baptist church, iron station, north carolina

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Have_one's_cake_and_eat_it_too says:
"The reversal of this expression helped in the identification of the Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski. In the Unabomber's "Manifesto", it was written and signed "...you can't eat your cake and have it too. To gain one thing you have to sacrifice another." His brother David Kaczynski was able to identify Ted after reading the "Manifesto". Ted and their mother both used the more accurate but older and less popular use of the phrase."

i'm with the unabomber, it makes more sense to me saying "you can't eat your cake and have it too." either way, it's crumby, and i want both.

from noon today until midnight tomorrow is 'day in the life of asheville' where i go around taking pictures of everything for a city-wide project. http://www.flickr.com/groups/ditlo-asheville/
this photo is not one from today but it's a scene from my life this week. so far today i've taken photos of washing the dogs and going to greenlife. hopefully i'll get some shots of porch sitting, the post office, farmers market, and superpreppy birthday party tomorrow to round out the excitement. i hope everybody has a great memorial day weekend and says thank you to the fallen soldiers who have laid down their lives for our freedom.

this is why i see live music

"let us go"


Somewhere in between Mobile and Montgomery
sittin’ in a gas station
trying to make some money

so we could go on down to the Gulf of Mexico
Let us go, let us go, let us go

Last night I dreamt about the girl that I left behind
If she was drunk I must have been
goin’ deaf and blind

and if I’m in Georgia again, I’ll get her by my side
and we will go, we will go, we will go

Someone’s lookin’ out for me
and he’s playing jokes and he's actin' awful mean
but he cannot stop my wonderin’
He cannot stop my wanderin’

Fixed my eye against the sky, was worried ‘bout tornados
but I spent the night in a trailer park
just a mile up the road

and if I could survive that without a cyclone attack
I would go, I would go, and I would go

I would go, and I would go, and I would go
I would go, and I would go, and I would go
I would go, and I would go, and I would go

amputee's appetite

i wonder if a person's appetite goes down after having a limb amputated in relation to the lower body mass & fewer calories it would take to support that mass.

christ did a cow shit in here?

here's the opening line to an email i got this week:

Hi Heather!

It's Emily R##s..you know the one that said "Christ did a cow shit in here?" in a nice little play and yes I believe you peed your pants on your parents dining room chair...that was me.

her family of 3 girls around the ages of my brother and me, i was oldest by a couple years, Emily was youngest by a few years, would come visit for a couple weeks in the summer and we would go to their house at bonnet shores in rhode island for a couple weeks in the summer too and we would do plays. the one she's talking about she was maybe 4 or 5 years old and i was about 8th grade and she knocked on the front door in a skit from 'kentucky fried movie' for a fake air freshener commercial, she had white hair like an angel and knocked on the door and said 'christ did a cow shit in here' and it was so funny i peed on the chair.

it was either this year or the following summer.



emily is on the left, the sign says 'politics in review,' my brother has blue eyebrows.
