Alone on the ePlaya.....

samtzu · Post by **samtzu** » Tue Jul 27, 2004 5:01 pm

Here I am... late in the afternoon... looking out across the vast ePlaya... sensing the emptiness, the desolation before me. I look up and see (in the Users Browsing This Forum line) only my name... floating like a small cloud on the breeze... and I feel... alone.

It is a good feeling. There is no life on the ePlaya... nothing growing, nothing scurying about... all the creatures, great and small, are moving about; some to their nests, some to watering holes; some in search of prey.

As I sit and watch I see that the winds of change are still ... although one never knows when a storm will arise out of the west and threaten to destroy structures that the inhabitants have erected, usually in hopes of protecting them from those very storms... often in vain.

Well, the night creatures are about to come out, and it is time for me to travel again... As I leave the ePlaya today, I think of all the ways that it has met my needs, made me think, and provided sustanence to my weary and thirsty soul. Some look here and see a desert. I look and see life.

Tomorrow I'll be back... and I will watch the cycle repeat itself.

Feeling "alone" is a perfect time to meditate.

Sam, I can't imagine anyone I'd rather have standing guard on the eplaya. You are quickly becoming my favorite rabble-rouser. I look forward to your nuggets of wisdom every day.

Hey, as long as you have the voices in your head- you can never be alone!

I just wish they would stop telling me to kill the neighbors...

Yeah, Samtzu, don't you ever lurk? It's my favorite time here. And then when I'm signed in i'm usually ignoring ya'll!

You may wish you could be alone here...

Ahhhh... my favorite stalker....

You can sneak behind me anyday, girl...

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Wed Jul 28, 2004 4:15 pm

you act like i haven't snuck up behind you, sweetheart.
maybe you should be worried.
you didn't think i was 'nice' or 'innocent' did you?

i think you're just hanging out, asking for trouble.
hi.

I enjoy it... wrap me in your concepts... lurk around my perceptions... dance naked across my sensibilities, all the while fiddling "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" on a blazing fiddle... on the ePlaya, it's all good.

Of course, if Rob was to do any of this, I would be soooooooo outta' here!!!

Rian Jackson · Post by **Rian Jackson** » Wed Jul 28, 2004 4:39 pm

Rob, I hear a challenge. Shall we team up on this one?

Locking in GPS coordinates.
Go Go Gadget Evil Rian....aka Nira....

samtzu · Post by **samtzu** » Wed Jul 28, 2004 5:02 pm

Well... it's time for me to wander off towards my abode... I look forward to a soft and fuzzy hug tomorrow...

Soft from you, fuzzy from Rob...

OK, here's the plan. You hit upstairs with a feint followed by a couple solid jab/hook combos. I'll head down below with a leg sweep and follow with an ankle trap while you...

Wait a second...

attacking other people, voices telling me to attack other people...

Goddammit! Those fucking voices in my head have learned to type!!

I'm already wearing the damn tinfoil hat you told me to! Isn't that enough? No killing the neighbors! No attacking people!

Bad voices! Bad voices!

You can both just jump on me now...

Because I am laying on the floor... convulsed with laughter... unable to defend myself...

TOO FUCKING FUNNY!!!!!!

People from the other cubicles are beginning to stare....

you and your fantasies.

samtzu · Post by **samtzu** » Thu Jul 29, 2004 3:45 pm

But they are such wonderful fantasies!!!!

I am actually listening to the sound of the air conditioner blowing through this building, and I can feel the breeze off of the Playa!!! How strange is that?

I am also taking up a collection here at work... the 'Send Sam To Camp' collection, so I can get my truck out of California and get to Burning Man. So far all I've collected have been dirty looks and random insults... but I have Hope!

I am also selling Stock Options on myself. I am telling people that once I go public, I will split and earn twice as much as when I was whole, and I promise to pay annual dividends (if I make a profit for the year)... so far, no takers. Dunno' why, though. I even have a full color prospectus and everything.

By the way, the light on the ePlaya at this time of day is getting close to perfect. Must be the way the dust gets kicked up...

Uhm, er, I'm afraid that isn't a breeze off the Playa.... Ah, that, actually, is me.... I ate a bunch of beans..., and, well....

Alone again on the ePlaya... It looks like rain... we could use it... it's needed to cool things down around the political threads... and to keep the dust down on the other, 'smart-assed' threads... and it gives us a great sunset.

It also keeps the racoons away... although I haven't figured out why...

Love to ya' all...

Nighty-night...

Sam

BTW--- Thanks for that photo... someone who was walking by my cubicle had a heart attack when that popped up on the screen. I almost had one myself!

Joel... Bucket Headed Alien...

Here, play with this one for a while... And enjoy the picture of Rob's fuzzy moon...

Doesn't a fuzzy moon mean that rain is coming?
