Sir Fielding, you have outdone yourself! I haven't laughed aloud, so hard, in ages! My animals are looking at me as though I've gone round the bend! BRAVO!!! Tell Duckboots to let you come back for another installment of How The Phoaks Turn!Please be assured, I am NOT interested in a sterile community of all of you fogies and no kids or other phoaks!**BG** Actually I was trying to avoid using that commie word, "commune" but what the hell. I know there si a more up to date word but can't think of it. As far as I am concerned, I would like to live in something like this RIGHT NOW, with all the kids, critters, spouses, foibles, instruments, etc. Cooperative! Nah, that's not it either, but I like it.
An', ya can fergitaboutda little row of motorcourt rooms, Rick! You think we'd get any sleep with those kazoos going all night if we were on top of each other that way???
(To the nose kazooers: I, too, used to do that. Get your oxygen levels checked. It's really easy; they just clamp a little lead line on your finger & the pulse oxymeter tells them what percentage of O2 you are taking in. Not trying to scare you, but it is worth the checking. Since I've been tethered to the O2 line, I've not snored a bit. Sometimes snoring is a sign of something that needs to be treated. Then, again, it oculd just be all those cat hairs clogging up your passages:-)
Okay then, houseabout we call it a neighbourhood/community? Have open song circles, workshops (self-sustaining idea, there). We could be like the MacDowell Colony of phoak or some such. A working place 'cause actually I don't see ay of us really slowing down on this stuff until they spread our ashes over the sea.
BTW, where is Father Joebro? Anybody heard from him or seen him in the threads? Missing you, Joe!
MT in the summer and AZ in the winter? Oh that's so sunbirdish!**BG** Might have to be a bit more central, although I could see several of these springing up; then we could have travelling caravans to each one; visiting one another, etc.
C'mon, Rick, MORE! MORE!
