27 July 2007

It's a full moon and a Friday night. Went out for a walk tonight. Walking past a bus stop I see a very old man sitting on the bench frantically typing on a Blackberry and[More:] punctuating each sentence with a "yeah fuck you!"

A bit farther down the street I come across a postage stamp front yard occupied by about a dozen 18 to early 20 year olds. They all have a beer in their hands but only two are talking. She, "It was awesome!'. He, "It wasn't that great." She, "it was!" He, "It was not." Repeat ad infinitum.

At the end of the same block I saw a young woman (18 to 22?) standing on her head in the front yard. "Want a tree?" she asked. "Be angry!." Some deep green party mantra?

All very Hunter S. Thompson. I need some acid.
Dude... did you have another one of those mescaline salads?

It's gonna be OK, man. You are a living, breathing organism with a right to be here. You just have some powerful chemicals produce running around your brain at the moment. Don't resist; go with the flow.

I am listening to local CBC 1 and they are playing William Shatner's Lucy in the sky with diamonds!

Can't escape the full moon vibe.

Imagine if you actually were on something and heard that. Not a good thing, I wouldn't think.

What is this "spider pig" thing? that's the second reference I've seen to that today.

I was just gonna say...it's a full moon. And a warm summer night. What more excuse does anyone need to be weird?

Never mind, I found it.

Heehee. Your neighborhood photos are very misleading.

taz, judging from the sounds I am hearing from the park right now you have no idea.

I am in a chat with the local CBC DJ and Giles Martin. Son of George Martin.

Way cool.

Ok so I am a complete arse. The DJ is Randy Bachman. I feel dumb.

The hat has overtaken the host body! Run for your lives!

This was the perfect thread to check in on before going to sleep.

Want a tree?

For the sake of completeness.... sung to the tune of the old Spiderman song from the 60s(?) in Homer Simpson's voice:

Spiderpig,
Spiderpig.
Does whatever a spiderpig does.
Can he swing,
From a web?
No can't.
He's pig.
Look oooouuuuut!
He is a spiderpig!


Quite possibly the best garbled lyrics to ever grace the big screen.
