Advice from Mr Natural....`Don`t Mean Sheeeit`

  At 71 you`d think I had learned something, not true! Last week  I totally fucked up....As a consequence I am out of a job, no income, NADA DINERO!

Tomorrow is rent day, that gives me a month to create my next life!!!

Seems like a good time to start a blog, write a little and take some pics.

I just got a new ASUS TF300T 1O INCH tablet. I had an Ipad 2, and this, I think ls a good match. $400 for 32gb. Has about 10hrs on charge, add the keyboard

dock and add another 5hrs. Has hdmi out, looks great on my 40 inch. Nividia/Tegra 3 quad core is the fastest processor on a tablet. Tegra 3 makes it  a strong

video game  unit. Several companies are building game portals. Buy a $39 wireless controller, hook it to your `big screen` and blast those alien, ghost,

Zombie bloodsuckers!!!

Just checked on one-way tickets to Peurto Rico, sfo to sju $159, real tempting....Was there a couple of times in the 60`s with the Air Guard. A valid drivers license
is all you need. They use US dollars and you can work. Something to think about!!!

How I Spent My Summer Vacation

In the spring of '71 things were going well....then someone got the big idea that the "four amigos" should invade "Europe". Must have been a "sunspot" or something!!! Start saving those "tips"! VG and Bart were hustling "siberia" and I plugged away inside the "red doors" or Rita's Room as I used to kid tourist. The story that Orson Wells and Rita Hayworth had owned the place had many and varied twist. "Yeah, Rita's bed was right over there by the fireplace". Of course in those days all that existed was the log cabin built by Sam Trotter.
Smith maintained the bar and we kept the touristas happy, after all it was the place to "Surcease From Sorrow".
Bart came up with the first scam. Even a Capricorn can't control two Aries and a Libra! He went to Santa Cruz and scored 500 hits of "blotter" acid for $250. About $83 bucks apiece. Supposed to be worth $10 a hit in Europe..., yeah we'll be rich.....Smith came up with the "peice d' resistance". Tony was making beautiful leather goods in "the barn" at Esselen. A pair of sandals with hollow souls, glued and tacked with 250 hits in each sandal. Smith also had him make a really beautiful leather carrying case, which could be cleverly twisted about and worn on the back.
The plan was to go in Oct., go to London, hit Amsterdam, maybe the Octoberfest in Munich, then head south where VG and Bart were going to hook up with the "Maharishi' in Majorca. Of course as Sept. approached Smith and I got antsy and decided to go ahead and meet the others in London or Amsterdam. We booked two seats on a flight we found in the "Chron", swore we were attending school, gave them $109 each and started packing.
The week we were leaving was the "Last Days of the Fillmore". Every night was broadcast on the radio. We hung out a lot at the "Trident" in Sausalito with all the other "hippies". I always felt like I was a "middle class hippie from Big Sur", mingling among the "upper class hippies of the city". Sex,Drugs and Rock & Roll....

THE NAGA

Nagas are a cross between a dragon and a snake....They gaurd the entrances to the temples of Thailand.
This one is chosen to gaurd the entrance to my soul, which I am going to attempt to bare. Read along, enjoy the stories and don't call the cops.....
