Aaron Neville is missing three of his nieces in N'Yawlin's.

...'nuff said.

Owl must fly

I have to stop blogging for a while
and do some other stuff. I'll check
in sometimes but can't be as present
here as I have been.

Carry on without me and
take good care of the spave plave.

Best to all,

On a Lighter Note

There is nothing wrong with feeling special

I feel unaproachably unique. I shed no aspects of person for social tradition. I carry no burden of societal expectation. I lose no sleep over the reproach of others. The world is a playground with playmates to no ends. Dreams can all be reached but if the journey was of no value then what is the goal. True desire should never be placed within only one aspect of reality. Carrying the past like an anchor will only increase the weight until responsibility collapses under capability. Consumption can seem so destructive as are all habits pushed beyond thier necessity but i cannot name a single individual without one or more crutches to lean upon. Perhaps we can teach ourselves a better way or maybe we can remember. I can leave so much but what is a life without common threads to weave it into a honest story worth telling. Let us share our methods of balance so that we may enjoy the perspectives of others if only for a moment. Or perhaps let us divise bigger, darker, thicker armor against the relentless barrage of dishonest proposals unaware of the purity thats is passing by in unlabeled packages.

I just got Exciting News from the Jeni Fleming Acoustic Trio!

On the 15th of September The Trio will be featured on a pilot episode of 11th and Grant with Eric Funk. It airs on PBS at 7 pm.
I say we have a Trio Watching Party... but not at my house... I don’t have a TV.

At least 60% of the Big Easy's under water.

And on the home front, our pal Don Rumsfeld thinks Bush

to run the military! )

FYI...

So I was just catching up on my blog reading since I was gone for three days. I just finished up reading the comments to "This is getting ridiculous," (or something titled similarly to that) and it left me feeling pretty good about things.

Ironic as the post started as a rant by Spin about how she shouldn't feel unsafe at her house. However, by the end of the post, people were talking about filling space with love, and happiness and cool friends.

Which got me thinking...this little living room we call a blog is really fun to hang out in.

Thanks for letting me pull up a chair.

And that's all I have to say about that.

This was a necessary post.......

and it doesn't take hours (for those of us who don't have hours).

Request for an explanation of the "Big Pink Gun"

Spaghetti and Meatballs on a Stick


Not to make light of the Katrina situation...but a few of you requested a picture of the "Spaghetti and Meatballs on a Stick" from the Minnesota State Fair.

For the record, I did not try one. I was going to buy a ball...but then I threw up a little in my mouth and...well...I can do what I want, so I didn't buy one. I did chat with one of the workers, however. Here's how one creates the "Spaghetti and Meatballs on a Stick."

1. Mix the meatball up and add the spaghetti noodles INTO the mix.

2. Add about two more servings per meatball, as it's the fair, and everything has to be XL at the fair.

3. Dip the ball mass in garlic batter and deep fry it.

4. Let it sit in a warming light until some poor sap in a fanny pack and dark socks says, "Mmmm I'll have that one."

5. Coat/dip the entire thing in marinara sauce and hand it over.

6. Watch the people consume it in 4 seconds.

7. Notice the snobby lawyer-chick from South Dakota over at the cheese curd booth sneering at the nastiness of the Spaghetti and Meatballs while she coats her own hand with fried cheese grease.

8. Laugh at the irony.

It was a fun trip.

Katrina

I have been watching hurricane coverage all morning. It seems pretty scary down there. They are saying things like total structural failure, and catastrophic.

Sunday, August 28, 2005

Needed: Powerful White Light--it has a long ways to travel.

It looks like Nature is pulling out her cannons and aiming them right a New Orleans. Here are some links to both news sites and blogs that give an in-dept look into the Hurricane Katrina situation.

Drudge Report Katrina is on the front page right now. If the story slips to second page status, check for a link on the home page.

Daily Kos, liz's diary --If this thread doesn't warm your heart and give you hope, better check your pulse.

Daily Kos, Darksyde's diary This guy is in the thick of the storm. (Incidently Owl, Daily Kos has a wiki and it is also the highest-trafficked political weblog, so don't get lost over there, okay?)

This map shows a cutaway view of New Orleans and how it is surrounded by water ABOVE IT on all sides.

Hurricane Katrina satellite feed

Here's a piece on Bush's cutting disaster relief by absorbing FEMA into the Dept of Homeland Security sheesh!

Photo of thousands of people waiting outside the Louisiana Superdome to be let in for shelter.

Most of the Louisiana National Guard is fighting a winless war, half a world away and our illustrious president is vacationing in Crawford. So ramp up the white light kids, this could become a very tragic story on our own southern shores.

New tool to stop Spam

Hi All,
I put a new feature on the blog that should stop the spammers. Now when you go to post a comment you have to type in the letters it asks you to. If you don’t you cant post... but I t makes it so that an actual person has to be making the post. Let me know how you like it. If it’s too big of a pain we can go back to the decoys.

good-bye song from Da Playzow

From the Chop!

Sign Off

Well folks, in one hour (as part of the close down ritual) the wireless internet will be shut down for Da Playzow. This means I will be out of the loop for a couple of days. It has been a wonderful summer, full of stories (some of which I'll tell, other's you might not be so lucky to hear). I really hope to do it again next summer, we shall see what the cards hold for ol' Dancin' D.

The last love from Da Playzow!!!

Check it!



This is a current poll that you can take on MSN.com right now.

Here is the original article.

I though it all was very interesting.

I hope this can make people laugh

So, before I came up to the playzow, we had a little mini fridge in the office. It was a cute little thing, mainly used for cooling lunch meat and beer. One day, we decided that the freezer part had gotten a little too frozen. We unplugged the fridge and left the door open so it could defrost. 4:30 (Beer O'Clock) rolled around and we didn't have any cool refreshment for the office, so I decided to chip out the frost with a knife. After a little while doing that, I suddenly hear a hissing sound. I had hit the compressor. We hauled the fridge outside so it could release whatever it was letting out. Needless to say, we had to dispose of the mini-fridge (which is not an easy or cheap task).

A couple of people on this blog already know this story, but there is a second chapter that is quite amusing to me.

So I told the previous story to a couple of friends of mine at camp. They laughed at me and told me that that is not the smart way to go about it. Anyway, I was walking through camp and one of the friends was sitting on the ground in front of an open mini fridge. She was chipping frost out of the freezer part of the fridge with a hammer and a screwdriver. "Bring back any memories?" she asked me, I told her that it did indeed and she should be careful. She replied "Unlike you, I know what a compressor looks like." So I let her go about her business and not 3 minutes later, I hear a very familiar hissing sound. I turn to her and sure enough, she had done the same thing. I laughed so hard my sides hurt.

I found it amusing, and somewhat a good lesson: Don't brag about your talents until you're sure you actually have them.

Hope it made you laugh.

Love from the Playzow for 4 more days!

This is getting ridiculous!!!!

Ok, so yesterday I told Chad that I didn’t want him to live at my house any more… needless to say, he didn’t take that well. We didn’t talk anymore yesterday and I went to the Playhouse last night and stayed at my mom’s house. This morning on my way down I noticed that Chad’s VW was in the little cul-de-sac between my mom house and my houses. I didn’t think much of it. I thought he must have moved it down there to “protect it” from me. So I went on with my day and at 11:15 I got a call from Chad.
“Where is it?” He asked

“Where’s what?” I replied

“My Car.” he answered.

I stated that it was down the hill and that I thought he had put it there… Obviously I was wrong. He angrily hung up on me and I flew out the door to see what was going on. When I pulled up he was down at his car.

“Is it ok?” I said… knowing full well that at this time Chad thought I put it there.

“NO!” He exclaimed and walked up to the house. I got out of my car and calmed him down and assured him that I DID NOT put his car down there. After that was settled we walked down there and retraced what had happened. It seems that sometime between 12:00am and 9:00am someone got in Chad’s car. Then they PUSHED it off the north side of my driveway ( about 20 feet almost straight down) onto the road, pushed it again off of the second hill onto the driveway that goes down into that cul-de-sac. Then they pushed it into a tree, and back down into the cul-de-sac again. Its not in good shape it seems to have leaked oil all over down there.

I need to know why this stuff is happening at my house. I need to know what to do to stop it. I don’t think it’s fair that I should feel scared to live at my own house.

Point to Ponder...

So one of my friends e-mailed this lil' story to me and a few others asking us what we thought. I'm not sure what to think, so I'm posting it here to see if any Helens agree with any one solution:

Ok, here's the situation:

40 year old male Radio DJ has a successful career, wife and 2 children and loves them very much. One day the new crop of interns arrives to help out in the studio and throughout the station and one of the interns placed in studio with our main character is 21 and beautiful. Our main character notices how attractive the intern is and after a month or so of working with her is so taken with her beauty and overall self that he asks the intern coordinator to move this intern out of the studio group because he fears that something will happen between them if they continue to work together.

We have no information about how the intern feels about our main character, we are asked to assume that she is just happy for the opportunity but has no interest in him outside the professional world. Apparently the intern coordinator and the DJ are out for an evening with their wives and some comment made by the intern coordinator in reference to the attractive intern that was removed from studio, does not exactly fly over the wife's head and a massive argument ensues. The wife is humiliated that she had no idea this had happened.

What do we think about this situation? Do we feel it was the right thing to do for the DJ to remove the intern from his area because of his overwhelming attraction to her? He insists he did it because he cares about the integrity of his marriage. Thoughts?

I think it's an interesting story that, unfortunately, happens a lot. Harumpf...men.

Pat Chouli's revenge.

WARNING: THIS IS A CHEAP (sociofoo) SHOT!
(because I owe Skogg one)

Hey Skoggle, do you ever wear perfume?

Expensive or cheap?

Do you know what "Ambergris" is?

Sure you do... it's" whale puke", right?

"So what," you say?

Well, hey, here's the real poop:

Ambergris is used as a fixitive for the finest of
women's perfumes. (Chanel 9, etc.)

And further, ambergris is the product of whales eating squid.

You see, whales can't digest the beaks and the tendons of squid,
so they store that stuff up, and puke it out later.

Funky.

Then, (can you dig it?) a lot of high rent chix wear it
to make themselves "smell good".

Mmmmmmm. Who could resist?

It's one of the best, true cosmic jokes I ever heard!

And hey, no kidding, it's ok with me.

I know you high end women can "do what ever you want."

I say, rock on, babes!

(...tsk...girls...)

Have you seen this man?


Since we're all about tracking people down...

I hear this man may be returning to the Rapid City area during the day this week...and full-time beginning next Monday.

He is to be considered armed (he has two) and fabulous. He's a bit ornery, because he's recently aged, putting him in the "ornery and old" category for purposes of the census.

WELCOME BACK (almost) EEKERZ!!

--Skoggle

P.S. If ya'll haven't been down to the BHP to see "Lion in Winter," it's playing for one more week (last performance is on the 28th). It's F-ing brilliant.

Owl and Skoggle break record

Check out her post below
"Should I or..."

Decoy post!

Ok, so here is my theory on the “Annony” posts.

I know they are crap and I know that it’s like the spam of blogs. I want to beat them at there own game. I have noticed that they get heavy at about 4:00 and go till around 6:00… I think. (or at least more so at that time then at other times)

So what I am going to do here is post a fake blog. I know that they can only post on the top post on a blog. So for a little while anyway we should keep this up here. I will delete it tomorrow. If you have something you want to blog about between 4 and 6 go a head and post on top of this post and I will try to clean it up the best I can. Let me know if you think this is a good idea or not. I am just sick of it.

Should I or shouldn't I...

So I'm going to Minneapolis this weekend and on Sunday will attend the FAMOUS Minnesota State Fair (if you haven't gone...you need to go before you die).

Anyway, one of the big things at the fair is the "new food" that everybody is talking about.

This year it's Spaghetti and Meatballs On A Stick.

What the? I am having a hard time even picturing what that looks like. They also have battered bananas foster bites on a stick...which sound divoooooooooon.

Should I try both? Neither? Could somebody add a picture of spaghetti and meatballs on a stick?

We've come full circle.

As I recall, this blog started when Spinny was trying to get
everybody to agree on whether a sentence should end with
an exclamation or a question mark.

Now we have a Blogtitle that represents a new graphic design
movement involving an irratic method of capitalization.

It's called "sOCioFoOL".

It always comes back to language, doesn't it?

What are the other elements of this style that have been on this blog?

I can list a bunch, but I'll let you guys go first.

See if you can analyze and further define the movement you've started.

Congratulations, by the way!

Message from the Bloggod's

Get your last comments in while you still can!

Are you dumb?

Okay, so I know my contributions to the blog have been...not so intelligent as of late. (insert mean comment from Owl, Skleeve or both here).

However...you just have to do this:

Are you Dumb?

Make sure the sound is on.

I Got Some Pictures in an Online Photo Show

I don’t think it’s that big of a deal. But it was juried. I know that because I submitted 5 photos, and only 4 of them got in. Anyway the show goes up (online) on September 1st. I will let you know when you can look at them. But for now, here is the site...

They have a landscape show going on, which by the way my good friend Elissa has some pieces in.

Enjoy!

I like British Names...

Okay, so Spinfly and I are a wee bit out of control now that we've found this Rum and Monkey site.

Anyway...I really want to know about everybodys' "British Names."

So...post them in the comment section.

What is my British name?

In case you're wondering, if you put in my blog name (Skoggle), my british name is Imogen Walpole. However, if you put in my non-blog name (aka my real name), my British counterpart is Margaret Salisbury.

I love the British.

Straw Poll: What does Dr. Phil Make YOU do?

So this guy said Dr. Phil was the inspiration behind faking his wife's kidnapping. He locked her in a trunk after knocking her unconscious.

Obviously, he's crazy (but not legally insane...an important difference). However, I find it problematic that our society now embraces this "quick fix" therapy on television. Oprah said this...Dr. Phil thinks you should do this...Jerry said it's okay as long as the cousin is once removed, so don't feel so guilty...

Anyway...I find Dr. Phil to be a hypocrite and ineffective. Scare tactics don't work on everybody, yet he promotes them for all.

Has quick fix therapy made problems worse? Has the "think about it, fix it and get over it now" mentality hurt our society?

Anyway...that's what's on my mind.

And to answer my own question...what does Dr. Phil make me do? Swear at the TV and then change it to Springer.

Blog Tech Talk

I love Wikipedia. I don't know...I found this interesting. Actually, I find most of the new tech vocab interesting.
Does that make me a geek? Oh, never mind, don't answer that.

Blog site The web location (URL) of a blog, which may be either a dedicated domain, a sub-domain, or embedded within a web site.
Blogsite
Sometimes confused with a simple blog or blog site, but a blogsite is a web site which combines blog feeds from a variety of sources, as well as non-blog sources, and adds significant value over the raw blog feeds. .

Troll A commenter whose sole purpose is to attack the views expressed on a blog, for example, a liberal going to a
conservative blog, or vice versa. Many trolls will leave their remarks on multiple posts and continue to visit the blog, sparking
spirited debate amongst the blog's regular readers. Trolls' verbosity can range from eloquent to crass, although many,
unfortunately, fall into the latter category.

I thought this was rather interesting

This was sent to me... I thought i would share

...since we are on that topic.

Meet Roy Bull


Please meet Jake's and mine good friend, Roy. Roy
Bull. He's a nice enough fellow. Sells tractors in
North Dakota I think. He may have family ties, but
we're not sure...Jake has more "family" photos in case
you're curious (in the morbid sense).

Dr Von Skleeve

Especially for our new RINO pal, Skoggle:

She is known to love lists, so here's one:

Q: How many members of the Bush Administration
does it take to screw in a light bulb?

A: Ten…
1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed
2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb needs
to be changed
3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb
4. One to tell the nations of the world that they are either “for”
changing the light bulb or “for” darkness
5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the
new light bulb
6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing
on a step ladder under the banner: “Light Bulb Change Accomplished”
7. One administration insider to resign and write a book documenting
in detail how Bush was literally in the dark
8. One to viciously smear #7
9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how George Bush
has had a strong light-bulb-changing policy all along
10. One to confuse Americans about the difference between screwing
a light bulb and screwing the country.

I'd really like some feedback from all of you about when be become "persons". I've been in a raging debate for several months now with some folks who insist that embryonic stem cells are "people."

Here's what I'd like you all to do:

Read the 14th and the 9th Amendments to the US Constitution and tell me what you think they say. (Don't worry, they're very short.) Then tell me what you think about when we become "persons."

Thanks!

p.s. Scogg, have you become a person yet?
...I know I'm still working on it.

A friendly reminder...

There have been several attempts, by fans of Spinfly, to get Spin to post altered, yet amusing, pictures of any of the following:

1. Eekerz
2. Boiled Owl
3. Not Skoggle, (sorry... I love you.)
4. More of the Gentle Giant

Anyway...I'm really annoyed with my work today, so it would be refreshing to laugh at my friends. No, not with them...at them. Directly at them...and in their face at a later date.

Laughing because she cares,
