Gutter Punks

I am still out of step with Babylon & especially the Family - I had wanted to get to the gathering last year up in Pennsylvania then again this year in Washington State. Alas never made it, circumstances prevented me from leaving & heading home. I followed the gatherings from news reports filed online and the occasional tele report.

I learned about a new "subculture" the gutter-punk. The names we give to parts of society that we don't agree with or understand, silly people. I simply think of these folks/peoples/kids as having a similar outlook on life. They take that view and lead a life that many find strange. I find it neither strange nor confusing - to me, it is all about being true to one's self. If one can not accept these "gutter punks" then I agree with them - pi** off.

I wish them all a good journey throughout life - peace! & welcome home u'all.

Fallen away

I have fallen away from maintaining a blog, several months or longer. So what say I rail against tonight.
Made the decision last night to take a room for a week for me, myself and I plus one - Joe. Now Joe is just your average mutt with an unusual iq, a very smart dog or a brain in fur. Found Joe last winter hiding behind a dumpster trying to stay warm, didnot want to come out - could not blame her. It took a great deal of cooing, talking, getting down to her level to get her to come out. She came out eventually to gobble down the food I shared her...Mac's best.
Then it was to a vet to get her seen for a physical and the other stuff. After an unexpected 3 day stay, she came back - all groomed and beautiful as well as sprayed. She is bigger than a Beagle but smaller than an Irish Setter, her mother must have been one of the two breeds, Joe is a beautiful red with floppy ears and a bay when she picks up a scent.
She travels N'ville with me, getting our chores done before we seek solitude for the night.
