You and me both. I'll meet you back when we're through...

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 12:52 am

I'm back.

And what a beautiful night it is here in the Midwest, humid though. We had a big thunderstorm this afternoon and it's been damp ever since.

I saw a shooting star though. Wheeeee!

The marine layer has moved in for the night, and the clouds are racing by. I'm afraid I'm off to bed, Miss Blue. Did you know Gigs goes to bed at like 9:30? Shee-it, she keeps farmer's hours! And now, she's got me doin' it! I can't farkin' believe it either. Last night I went to bed at 11! Anyhoo, stay close and watch for my signal: then we make a break for it, n'kay?

Remember, keep your weight on the balls of your feet and watch for those high, inside fastballs. We'll make this...

Okely doekly.

*smooches* and good night.

Hi Karine.

So, are you off on travels or back home at the moment?

karine · Post by **karine** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:21 am

Blue- they weren't joking about the Red Bull, or the Cranberry.... seriously- Ice can be bought (found) on the playa- but both Red Bull and Cran are THE SHIT. They are BOTH something I'd trade for once out there, AND that was good advice... I'd bring something like that if I hadn't spent all my dough on body paint.

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:32 am

Yes well, as much as I'd love to buy everything I think of, I don't know if my budget will allow. Sooo, I'll have to see about things. But it's in the back of my mind, believe me.

Elemental666 · Post by **Elemental666** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:34 am

hmmmm, what do they call those sarong type thingies that Islander type guys wear? You know like the big ol hawaiian dood at the luau and stuff?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:41 am

Ahhh ... sarong? Grass skirt? I give up. What?

Elemental666 · Post by **Elemental666** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:56 am

I dunno, I just figured they had a different name...

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 2:06 am

Oh, I see.

Well folks, I should be off for the night. Lots to do tomorrow and geez look at the time, already past 4 am. How did that happen?

karine · Post by **karine** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 2:14 am

Is it pareo(s)??? =Hawaiian
Tudong (women) or may other names.... hmmm....

Elemental666 · Post by **Elemental666** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 2:30 am

after doing a little searching I don't believe there is a difference in name, but there does appear to be a difference in how they are/were traditionally worn... So now I'm trying to find "How men wear surong" stuff...

Martiansky · Post by **Martiansky** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 5:35 am

Morning, peoples! I'll make up some coffee for you late night and early morning folks!
*steps behind counter and cleans up coffee maker....measures new grounds in filter and sets it to brew...*

Spealing of sarongs......LeChat had a pattern a few pages back. I wonder though what types of fabric are the best for making a sarong? I saw some neat dollar fabric at mallwart yesterday. I think though that I couldn't wear one, I'd need a suspender to hold it up!
Anyone remember seeing a pattern for a hammock somewhere on the eplaya? I couldn't find it....darn!

Stilesfamily · Post by **Stilesfamily** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 5:39 am

Martiansky did you change you avatar?

Walmart bad, bad Walmart, bad walmart

Martiansky · Post by **Martiansky** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 6:28 am

Morning, Stiles! Yup, I shore did change my avatar to my kitty!(she says, Are you talking to...mwah?!)
Also, it seemed like it was "copycat" Lechat day.....Here Kitty, Kitty!

I like mallwart for cheap fabric. We are limited on fabric stores here so, we hit whatever store is close.

Would you like some fresh brewed coffee?
*sets out several mugs, pours a cup for Stiles*

EvilDustBooger · Post by **EvilDustBooger** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 6:36 am

Good Morning!!
Hey Stiles, You still doing that Lemonade cleanse?
I didn`t do the fast, but we made some lemonade using
the lemons maple syrup and cayenne......fabulous!
just wondering.....

Stilesfamily · Post by **Stilesfamily** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 6:50 am

No, I blew it. Partly because we called off our burn after about a week (though its now back on), partly due to health concerns brought up by fellow burners and partly because I really wanted a cheeseburger. I could break it down as follows

1% Due to BM called off
1% Due to E-playa concerned burners
99% Really wanted a cheeseburger

But, my wife and I are inspired to do a short one between now and the burn.

EvilDustBooger · Post by **EvilDustBooger** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 6:54 am

I hear ya bro.
Steak
Burger
Tenderloin
Bacon
Gotta love ya for being honest.
The lemonade is really excellent though...........

Hey. Anyone got any lemons and maple syrup?
hold the pepper, but fresh mapley lemonade sounds great!
I`ll squeeze!

Stilesfamily · Post by **Stilesfamily** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 7:05 am

Bacon good, good bacon goood bacon

You know the Maple in the lemonade starts to taste a little medicinal after a few days and I get sick of it. I don’t use the Cayenne pepper much cuz I am not all that hot on the taste combination, as much as I know it is an important part of the cleanse. I thought about gifting it out on the playa, but the idea did not excite me to much.

LeChatNoir · Post by **LeChatNoir** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 9:42 am

Somebody call for me?

Spealing of sarongs......LeChat had a pattern a few pages back. I wonder though what types of fabric are the best for making a sarong?

Quick sarong: (2) yards fabric. Hem cut ends, leave selvage ends (sides?) as they are. Wrap around and fold down upon itself several times. Wide folds hold better. I usually start with wrapping it around me, bring the left side over to about my right leg, then wrap the right side around and pleat the excess up in front. If you’re worried about it coming off, a narrow belt under the folds insures no unanticipated accidental de-sarongings.

As to fabric: RAYON!!! It flows against the skin and feels sublime. Cotten tends to grab onto itself and limit movement. But... if you got 4 or 5 yards of cotton and pleated it up , I bet it’d do fine. Hmmm.....

(Begins thinking about cheapo fabric at MalWart)

(Leaves more beer, and some lemons on the bar and heads out.)

Hi/Bye!!

Sensei wrote:I bring this and that... Probably a bottle of Herradurra, maybe a bottle of Grey Goose. But then I'll bring a fuckton of cheap vodka to donate to the waterfront bars. Here's the thang though: mixer is often worth it's weight in gold out there. A jug of cran-whatever, or Red-Bull ($$$) is often appreciated waaaaay more than you might suspect. Don't spend too much; buy the cheap stuff to give away. Again, think mixer... And cups: they're valuable too.

Still uncertain about my 12 cans of cream soda for $2. But then who expect fish to understand anything but water?

blueniteowl · Post by **blueniteowl** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 12:14 pm

Oh my god it's a beautiful day here!

Hey fishie, you know I was wondering if perhaps you were taking a break from that other board. I haven't seen you post at all and you were paged today. Someone mentioned polymer.

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:08 pm

Something like that. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the tip off.

i could use a dozen drinks, right about now.

I'm only half way through this bottle of Segrams 7 Joel, want some? Hey, just sold my ticket so I am coming your way on Aug 24, got enough beer there?

Hey! Does this Bar allow DANCING?

::shakes hips back and forth, side to side::

Uh! OH YEAH! BOOYEAH!

::points a finger up in the air::

DISCO, BABY!

theCryptofishist · Post by **theCryptofishist** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:42 pm

You'd be amazed what this bar allows...

MrGAJ5001 · Post by **MrGAJ5001** » Wed Aug 10, 2005 1:47 pm

Well...I may not be amazed. It might take a lot to amaze me, anymore. How 'bout:

You'd be enthralled with what this bar allows...

That's a bit more accurate!

=)

::keeps dancing, but this time without hat, shirt, or shoes::

NO SHIRT NO SHOES NO SERVICE, MY ASS!
