Didn't do Opa.. maybe next week. The gang didn't gel.
Rosemary'll be here about 9am, which means Newt and I go back to the porch for a few. Might be a tad chilly this time...we'll see.
Written on the bus yesterday morning -

Photo is from an earlier ride, when nobody else was aboard.
I dreamt last night that someone grasped my shoulders, pressed their thumbs into my armpits, and then my chest opened up -- skin pulled back like contact paper on a drawer, a curved metal pair of bands where my ribs should've been opening like french doors. The cavity / cache was warm and dry, no sign of it's biological location at all. A vaguely egg-shaped mechanical device was removed, and another was put in it's place. the newer one seemed like something freshly constructed, clean ceramic with rubber rings, smelled a bit like machine oil. I don't recall the face of the one who did that to me.
Do they make dried olives for cooking or a garnish? Would they be edible?
The bus this morning smells like a combination of car exhaust, cherry jolly ranchers and burger king hash brown rounds. Not entirely bad, and better than it could be, for sure.
More and more folks are using the bike racks on the front of the bus... more often than not, both slots are filled when I get aboard. I may rethink my idea of cycling to the stop, unless I spot a good place to lock it down for the workday.
I think I'm just going to stop posting local news... nah. too much cool freaky stuff.
FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - Airport baggage screeners found a human head with teeth, hair and skin in the luggage of a woman who said she intended to ward off evil spirits with it, authorities said Friday.
Myrlene Severe, 30, a Haitian-born permanent U.S. resident, was charged Friday with smuggling a human head into the U.S. without proper documentation.
Customs and Border Protection officials found the head Thursday, after Severe arrived at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport on a Lynx International Airlines flight from Cap Haitien, Haiti, said Barbara Gonzalez, a spokeswoman for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Miami.
"It still had teeth, hair and bits of skin and lots of dirt," Gonzalez said.
Severe told authorities she had obtained the package in Haiti for "use as a part of her voodoo beliefs," ICE Special Agent Erick Hernandez wrote in an affidavit in support of a criminal complaint.
"Severe also stated that the purpose of the package was to ward off evil spirits," Hernandez wrote.
Severe, who also was charged with failing to declare the head and transporting hazardous material in air commerce, faces a maximum of 15 years in prison if convicted of all charges, prosecutors said.
Severe remained held Friday in lieu of a $100,000 bond. She is due back in federal court March 2.

Date: 2006-02-12 03:25 am (UTC)Six degrees of separation
The space between us, you and me
We live a life of desperation
We will collide eventually
It don't bother me
It don't mean a thing
Just let your mine be free
I'm losing my head
I'm going insane
I heard what you said
Your voice in my brain
I'm already gone
My eyes turnin' red
The damage is done
I'm losing my...
You give me too much information
I'm heading for an overload
We gotta change the situation
We gotta take another road
Now what you say to me?
I don't feel a thing
Let your mind be free
CHORUS

Date: 2006-02-12 03:41 am (UTC)oh, I forgot tom lerher. a love song for the ages.
I hold your hand in mine, dear,
I press it to my lips.
I take a healthy bite
From your dainty fingertips.
My joy would be complete, dear,
If you were only here,
But still I keep your hand
As a precious souvenir.
The night you died I cut it off.
I really don't know why.
For now each time I kiss it
I get bloodstains on my tie.
I'm sorry now I killed you,
For our love was something fine,
And till they come to get me
I shall hold your hand in mine.

Date: 2006-02-12 03:28 am (UTC)I guess I just lost my head
I know we should really know much better
I guess I just lost my head
(I've got the feeling inside)
I know we don't really know each other
(And I love you)
So pardon the things I said
(I need your loving tonight)
Won't you tell me you'll forgive me
Guess I lost it
Guess I lost it
I guess I just lost my head
(Cause you've been making me crazy)
I know we should really know much better
I guess I just lost my head
I know we don't really know each other
So pardon the things I said
Won't you tell me you'll forgive me
