It may be the alcohol, but with your response I just pictured a covered wagon with the oxen removed and a dozen people in harnesses pulling it around. Be careful with that whip!!! :lol: :lol:

I like your take on it, but it is slightly off. It does make use of antique farm implements, though.

That manure spreader might cause a bit of smelly moop, plow would be easy to follow, a sickle would be kind of hard on legs, ... it does sound interesting.

Think I am going to call it a night. Have a good one.

....can`t wait to see/hear more details about your
Loco contraption LeChat...you`ve got me looking through my
stockade o` old tractor wheels now!
I had thoughts about making some cool fence or gate pieces with them, but now I`m wondering if they shouldn`t
spin or move somehow..
....might be dangerous to have a big rusty steel wheel spinning out in front of your house though...

...with my luck I`d get sued for killing the neighbor`s pets with my
"Whirling Gate of Doom" or something ...probably also a magnet for kids.


...oh well.

breakfast beer sounds good.....

Mornin' EDB and LCN....
Went to bed with wierd alergy cause my ear to painfully pop when I yawn???

Friend called me last night (drunk) sobbing about a nightmare she had of me, concerning me throwing a Flower girl party in a desert. Kinda scary, She said I had gone blind and couldnt see what i had created , which she said in her dream seemed wierd to her, then when she saw the party she said it was the most beautiful thing she had ever seen, but because i had gone blind I couldnt see it any more, nor could I create costumes anymore, it was sad.


In real life I started thinking that WOULD be horrible, to not be able to SEE burningman.
Im sure that my other 4 senses would take over, for my sightlessness. But howl that would be horrible indeed.

Scary thing is that for the 20 some odd yrs Ive known her, she's had alot of preminision dreams.

Sounds like an ear infection. It'll clear up. It better...
Continuing on, pinemom then wrote: Friend called me last night (drunk) sobbing about a nightmare ....
She was drunk. Probably an hallucination. When people are psychic they tend to take their dreams seriously (ergo the hysteria) but drunk dreams are usually inner core stuff, not outer physical stuff. Are you closing your "eyes" to something evident? Something involving friends? Dunno... I'm just flashing here...
Now that bb finally shut up, AMPM was able to continue her concerns. In this journal, she wrote: In real life I started thinking that WOULD be horrible, to not be able to SEE burningman.
Im sure that my other 4 senses would take over, for my sightlessness. But howl that would be horrible indeed.

(a) Like I said, it's prolly internal, not external. Find someone to read your cards, see if they get any kind of concurrence... but make sure they know what they're doing. Lotsa quack card readers...

(b) even if it was a true preminition, you will survive. You'll still spin poi. Hell, one of the best dressmakers I knew (Funny, just wrote about dressmakers) was blind as a bat - and she built *amazing* stuff. No shit!!!

(c) Or maybe - just maybe - it was a warning. doublecheck your spinning technique and gear, know your fuel, etc. You know, standard stuff. Don't take stupid chances.

My best friend from years ago was pretty gifted, but she'd work herself up so bad over something silly and blow it out of proportion. Also remember - even the absolute most dead on bestest psychics can be dead wrong once in a while. Just be safe, and don't worry about it, OK?

hugz...

Do you have a preferred deck, Sue? It's not even remotely traditional, but I'm partial to Morgan's Tarot, myself. It's not afraid to deal in clue-by-fours (or clue-by-4x4s, if need be), and is even snarkier than the Thoth (Crowley) deck, if you can believe that.

My suitcases all tend to have Keesh on them...you're all shocked, I can tell. ;-) I need to find a good source for them, though - I had a friend who actually worked for OddzOn (the parent company), but left after Hasbro bought them out.
