| THIS IS A READ-ONLY ARCHIVE FROM THE SORABJI.COM MESSAGE BOARDS (1995-2016). |
|---|
We have the name. Leaving Auckland, flying to LA, spending some time there, flying to New York, hanging out there with trips to Washinton and Philadelphia where I have a penpal, then flying to London. We have the plan. We just need the money. |
|
I would think some drinking, and some sightseeing and some sorabjite meeting if anyone feels up to it. |
|
i can show you Harry Houdini's old house, supposedly haunted with secret underground passage ways...though its fenced off. I can show you the best view's in the city. And of course...as always...my Bukowski bar tour is ALWAYS available. I can show you at least 3 different Frank Lloyd Wright houses...as well as a Neutra house if architecture is your gig. i just realized you said this is for 2003. I may be dead by then. i was hoping to do this next weekend. |
silliness. |
|
If I win Lotto Patrick, we can do it next weekend. However I fail to see this happening, so please try not to injure yourself within the next year or so. I never thought about SF. The flights go directly from here to LA. And I've got this thing about NY, which is why we want to go there. Of course I actually want to go all over the US, but due to cash constraints have to play it by rationing. I need to find a map. And then I need to talk to Jules. And I need to save some money. I love you free internet connection. Sorabjifest 2003? |
That's the only interesting thing here. Besides me, of course. |
|
|
damn. i'm going to have to find something to meet with the dallas engineers about. |
|
|
meat. arrr |
what i really want to do is go to riscky's steakhouse and have the great big ol' plate of testicles. arrr. |
|
do they smell like cut grass? brie cheese? |
can't say what they smell like. i'd have to be in the kitchen where they were cooking. my grandmother used to tell this story about when she was a child and her father worked at the stockyards. when it came to be the castratin' time o' year on the ranch, her father would come home with a big pail of testicles. it was a special time. |
you know, when i'm imagining eating testes. i'd eat that, though. sounds pretty good. |
i talk like i go out for a sack o' nads once a week, but it's been years since i've had them. i do remember liking them. sometime this month i'll go to riscky's and have 'em in gravy. despite anything i might've said about gravy previously. |
Only a thread about travelling could turn into a thread about testicles. |
a car and drive. That's how you do it, or take the train. You'd get to see more sorabjites that way, plus our natural splendor. or, you can take a cross country non stop flight. that sounds good.... |
Come to Missouri... yeah, a Big Quiet Time under the Arch. We could visit the Dog Museum, The National Bowlers' Hall of Fame, and the Dental Museum, to name a few sites. By the way, Anti, I'm gonna be in Dallas in June --13th thru 16th as it looks now. How was Auckland, Moonie? You still there? |
I'm kinda disappointed that they're not round when served.I just sorta always assumed they were.This has me confused.[but I wouldn't eat em,or brains or tongue or other oddities of the hoof] Moonie,be careful if you look at Houdini's house.He was a mean man.Somebody tried to copy his under-water-chain-me-up-escape,and Houdini got pissed,and snuck and put caustic lime into the would be escapers water.I don't remember if it killed they guy or not,but it surely didn't do him any good.There are probably bad vibes there. And I can second that Antigone would be a good thing to sight-see in Texas. And,of course,if you get to Texas,you're just a hop away from Lousiana.So there is an open invitation for you here. I must have missed something.I knew you saw Jules New Years,but has there been a reuninting? |
Highly doubtful. But, a nice thought. I'd love to see both moonit and spider. |
I am so fucking tired and pissed off but I can't be arsed writing about it now. |
I've never watched such a show, but if its anything like the dramatic bullshit depicted in Real World...based on what Angry Sam has told me about filming reality TV series like that....its all a load of horseshit. he's in Phoenix right now filming Elimidate then he's done with the season. we're gonna celebrate because when he's done, he'll have the cash to buy a brand new G4 with Final Cut Pro 4 and can edit the flic we shot last summer. er driving cross country is an experience totally worth it. |
But, at least there are no security checks you have to go through. |
|
we cam to LA via New Orleans, Dallas, Albuquerque, Las Vegas. the drive from Amarillo west was fucking tremendous. New Mexico and Northern Arizona are gorgeous. If i were to do it again Id take an extreme northern route, through the Sierras, Idaho, Wyoming Montana and the Dakotas. Its supposedly beautiful driving up there. i dunno....screaming down the American highway with some Hendrix, your girl and a fat joint are tops. |
|
I'm just in a terrible mood. Feel bad. And, can't make a doctor's appointment. I think my doctors practice has grown to large. Next friday I get some sleep. I'll be having gallbladder surgery. |
Baltimore to New Mexico. I loved New Mexico, The Air Force Museum, the St Louis Gateway Arch. I even liked Stuckeys. But, the miles and miles of miles and miles in the plains is a bit boring. And, although White Sands New Mexico is a wonder to see; in a few minutes the endless white sand and nothing but white sand can be boring too. |
|
Amarillo looked terribly depressing. |
Baltimore to New Mexico, indeed. You've driven the metaphor for my life. |
|
But, you never know who will show up in Sorabji land. |
Been lurking? |
