Still looking at trying to get plants in the ground as well! indeed, Brother Jim C., you are an Apostle of El Grande...He, the Big EG, speaks thru your bread and maketh me quite often squat and, always, sing out in a loud voice...usually the Happy Happy Joy Joy song, if i remember correctly...but i digress... Praise be El Grande, the Chileheads, and all who further the Cause, promote the Way of Enlightenment, and walk the Path, for we strive for purity, for perfection, for unconditional devotion to That Which is Capsicum so that we may one day make that journey to the Chilehead Heavenly Bar and Grill where Chileheads do gather for eternity, eating chilehead chow, drinking hot and spicy bloody's (i'll take a maria, thank you very much..double shot of meZcal, babycakes...where *are* my smokes?...), and jamming to Jimi and Janice and maybe ole Mick will be there by then (or stuffed in the Smithsonian), and El Grande will be there too...playing bass, of course... alas, i've talked enough...Monk Rael merely wished to bid all goodwill, offer up a bit of praise for El Grande and Chileheadhood, and apologize as well (for those who care) for my lack of verbosity, er, verbalization, or maybe that's simply "lack" (?) and thus, it's a good thing after all...hmmm...point be: Rael is here just less verbal, generally speaking, and am still following along with the fun and games, comment when i don't think i'm repeating things already said...but i also must say (in a giggling voice as might a 16 year old boy from the back of a pinto...and it was a yellow pinto...sony stereo...it was cool, dammit...whuzzhis name drove a pinto in the American Gigilo!..jeez..no respect..oooh, Blondie flashback comin' on...ahem..) i am soon to move my redneck arse to idaho (what do i hate? cold weather..where must she live? idaho...go figure) 'cause after so very, very long, Rael has latched onto a nubile (technically an older woman, but delicious, ageless, and quite limber, sez i) who shares his oddities, his eccentricities (read: weirdness), and happens to be gainfully employeed and willing to give me room and board in exchange for my abilities as a cook, poet, and Twister Master...ha..i jest, meaning i'll get a job once settled in...or maybe continue with the coursework...or maybe i will finally open up that School of Twister Enlightenment...hmmm.... but ooooh, did i miss that shakey puddin'...praise be! ahem...but i do say that the first chile should be celebrated in some way...homage must be made, you know...
