I can log in now, it's after 3:00PM in the afternoon here. I was on there earlier this morning my time but I missed the meltdown in between. I believe
the crash was caused by censorship. There was some discussion this morning about how Gail goes about answering questions and DC Boogie was being
particularly uncomplimentary towards Gail. Soon after that I logged off. I've just come back now and all of that stuff has gone .... highly suspicious

I had to get another pass word and it still won't let me change it yet.Alot of stuff is gone also,like Plooks avatar and missing posts.I wonder what
DC Boogie said about Gail? There was definetly a reaction to it or a coincidence of errors.I doubt we'll ever know. {-

Beware the Ides of Gail....or March.It's been really nice,beautiful weather here when what we need is rain! Lots of it or next year the reservoirs
will be at drought levels.Just learned Ike Willis,Ray White and Robert "Bobby" Martin are playing with a Zappa cover band named For the Love Of Frank
in Chico,CA..Close to me! I hope they do Whippin Post! The first time I saw Bobby sing WP was back in '74-5 at the Circle Star theater in the
round.Chris North does an excellent rendition,but it's always the first one you heard that stands out for me.
The Allman brothers still do it best,thanx to Greg Allmans fantastic blues voice,but I really like Bobby's version too! As you can tell I'm
excited.DZpZ hasn't been here for over a year and it's been since Sept.2012 that I saw The GrandMothers with slime.o.I'm ready for more...now!
BTW: on youtube bri1tag has over 90 concerts and interviews with FZ/MOI and is definetly worth checking out. (must be a Zappateer)

Just saw a squirrel up our conifer, spent a good 15 minutes watching this delightful creature scrounging around for a meal. ^_^

Hot Rats.That's basically what squirrels are.Cute bushy tailed rodents.I still go squirrel fishing once in awhile.Tie a walnut to a fishing line and
have some fun! Those little suckers will fight each other over it all the while your reeling them in.I once had a Red Squirrel hang on to a walnut as
I pulled him up to the second floor,before he finally let go! Hilarious good clean fun! No squirrels were hurt during my fishing experiment
either.Even after yanking them outta the conifers,40 ft.up,didn't faze the little suckers! They'll just keep going after those nuts!

Sounds cruel. Anyway these creatures are a lot quicker, less tolerant about each other (unless they're a family or in the mating season, there's
usually only one squirrel per territory) and not as keen on humans. Seeing them is rare.

It's different here and not cruel at all,just funny.It's really funny how possesive they get over a walnut.1st one there seems to own it and will
fight the others over it all the while hanging on to the nut being pulled closer to me! Squirrels are all over here.We have Red,Grey,Ground,Tree and
Flying squirels and a dozen or so more that range from Chipmonk size to the Ground squirrel size.They use the power lines to get around neighborhoods
where there's no trees and really are considered pest by most.Not by me though.I have a little fun with them is all.Maybe I should tape/film it,it's
really funny! I've got scub jays and racoons/opossums that come by for peanuts and scaps respectively on a daily basis.They all know their names and
will keep the others away for peanuts and scraps.Quid pro quo,ya know? Ha!
BTW,Did you know feeding bread to ducks and geese is bad for them? Just heard that on the nature channel.I missed the 'why' of it though.

this didn't happen to me, but have you heard that
Steven Spielberg will produce a mini-series based on a Stanley Kubrick-penned script about Napoleon ...

Heard it. Horrible.
Kubrick was highly interested in his Napoleon-film; he was believed to have the world's largest library on the subject. He'd cast Jack Nicholson as
Napoleon.
Spielberg is miles apart from Kubrick, I wish he'd realize that himself and leave the man's projects alone.

That's a big one.To fat for me to reel in.Cute little buggers aren't they? Squirrels don't get quite that big here unless over feed.When our ground
squirrels sit up they resemble a smaller version of Merecats of the Serengeti.

I couldn't agree more; I hated AI. Spielberg was looking for the emotional/romantic/touchy/feely side. He demonstrated this in an interview too, where
he stated that Stanley really did have a heart and described how the clip he watched with friends on the day of Kubrick's death was the last scene of
"Paths of Glory" which is possibly one of the few scenes directed by Kubrick that I don't like very much.

Funny how that scene relates to the final scene of Full Metal Jacket. It's a bit of a relief after the disturbing scene with Timothy Carey sobbing on
its way to the poles,starting off horribly as you sense a gang rape about to happen but turning into a breather. And ends with knowing the guys are to
be sent to the front as soon as the song's over, and you can be pretty sure they'll be over the trenches and dead in no-man's land next.
