I talked to God. Found her to be quite a pleasant conversationalist!!

Interesting example of situational context.

Same statement in default
poor person = unfit to stand trial
rich person = charming eccentric

on the playa = neither


"Hope you're hungry"

on the playa = a friendly jape
sudan = a cruel taunt

Not so much "see" on on playa as much as party with... anywhere
Charlie Sheen, Lindsey Lohan, Chris Farley, or Britney Spears all pre-rehab of course.
With that much money I figure they must the best shit!

None of the Kardashians would make it past the gate..... likely not even through Gerlach.

Ok I will feed into this i guess. Who I would love to meet out there.
Well one person who I was talking about who is "well known" is already going so that is money.

Um I would LOVE to see Russell Brand out there. He is so smart and witty. He can bring Katy to I guess and noel his best mate.
ImageImage

Josh Gates from Destination truth. That man is HOT and he could handle it out there. If anyone has his contact let me know. This man is a god in my book. I would sell a kidney to bone him.
ImageImage

Niki Sixx. Now.. but kinda sucks he is in recovery but more power to him. He is deff a DILF! Wicked smart as well

Yep those are mine

Oh im sure you would. You would find on of them made into a "art" installation out on the playa. There steleto heels stuck into the playa. Im sure someone one would set up a fence around them and call them performance art. Don't worry though. The Moop crew will come get them after Exodus.

Maybe one of these times Joyce will make it out to the playa. She can camp with the Endorphins if she so chooses.

I think Nick Offerman, a.k.a. "Ron Swanson" from Parks and Recreation, would be right at home on the playa. He can build, and he's @#$% funny. These are my main requirements in a playa celebrity. :lol:

(If he's taking requests, I would also ask him to shave his mustache--shut up, this is for me!--and bring his lovely wife, Megan Mullally.)

Ron Swanson would be hilarious out there. So would the gang from It's Always Sunny in Philidelphia. One of them might die though...

It kind of feels like a never ending Flaming Lips concert out there to me. I'd imagine Wayne Coyne would be right at home.

Heck, recently the Google Earth car caught him pretty much building a theme camp on his lawn.

Well, if we are allowed to include characters from tv, then I think we can include characters from the movies, and if from movies, why not from books? And maybe people from history.

Still can't think of anyone though.

If you had a time machine and you could go back and see one, just one, infamous performance would it be the Sex Pistols in San Francisco when they were coming unglued, the riot at the Rite of Spring's first performance, or a real live castrato?

Well that's quite a choice you've given us fishy. Is that last one what I think it is? I shall google it and get back to you.

Yeah, it's what you think of, well maybe not. That word may not describe "other worldly voice" that is inherent in the knowledge of the italian custom.

Food for thought.

Piaf on the streets of Naples.

Joplin at Big Sur for the first time.

Bessie Smith anywhere.

This is actually my proof that we never invented time travel. Because if we had, that sex pistols tour would have been playing to a packed house everywhere.

I have some more performances that I'd like to go back and see, but I've forgotten them.

I have a very loud and drunken conversation inflicting myself on some couple in the fur tube in the wee hours of the morning.

They didn't know about the castrati.

I had to enlighten them.

There's still a castrato shaped hole in my heart.

Rather go with charctrs than actual celbs.

Finnegan, from the Star Trek episode 'Shore Leave'. Hit a few bars, chew some peyote, climb the art, throw up on the art, have fistfights, stuff like that.

Or Calamity Jane from Deadwood, just to hear her cuss people out.
