Hi Roamy,

Hi Stillcrazy,

Hi Everybody,

Hi Tiger,

I'm surprised that Aerianne didn't post it. I've been down in the basement building up the Crash Pad space. Fairlight is right. we need a fun, new, and unintimidating place for younger people and newer people to enter the house. A bunch of people who have over 10,000 posts all talking away can seem rather intimidating to someone with 2 posts. You can understand.

So, I'm working on a House "lite" version.

Tell Etherea to join me in the basement.

MamaPeace, and Aeri both know where I've been. We've P.M.ed.
Aeri knows.
MamaPeace and I have probably done 20 P.M.s in the past two days.

Good News!
Her house thing is straightened out for the next month. She didn't mention how.

But she's been coming down stairs with each type of tea that happens.

 

That was so cool, old tiger, brother.

I'm stunned. It's a diamond. I don't think that I've ever heard that one.

Thank you so very much.

 

Tiger, thanks for that spliff! It's exactly what I needed

 

Weirdly enough, almost exactly that same thing happened for real when I was staying in a house in San Francisco, must have been around 69. (Except we didn't say Church of the Good Earth, cos we weren't!). Somebody put on The Fugs,Out Demon Out (Levitation of the Pentagon???) really loudly and I think it scared them and they ran off. I think we thought it would reassure them that we weren't satanists!

 

OK what's going on down here? Keep the newbies away from the old crazies?

 

Come down to the basement? I'm here and you've all fucked off!

 

That's funny, Stillcrazy. I hear that you might be meeting 2 people at the Green festival.

Why is it? they all wonder, that Kenny can be away for a couple of days, and yet he knows all kinds of things that we don't know. Peace's Rent for August. Three of us possibly meeting up for the first time. Certainly 2 of us.

How odd How funny.

 

good gracious,etherea...i've seen crazy folks in me life...
but nobody as CRAZY as you...
and that's why you gotta stay in room??
tiger looks in his booklet and sees=room 20...
can you explain me why the scottish say a wee dram??
is that a slang word??if it is a bad word..I'll delete it..

 

Gotta go, my bus leaves in 5 mins!

 

Well, fair and I haven't yet discussed properly about going to one of the festivals, green gathering is probably too soon to make stable plans for.. but there are others

 

oh yeah,crazy...I loved the moment you lifted your head...
and told me...look over there..
do you see the Tor of Glastonbury...wooohhhh...
what a spliff it was...still feel the effect of it right now...:2thumbsup:
and...i can only look at my garden...

 

Thanks for posting this up Kenny.I love Joni!

 

i always like that after i am done on all the crazy nutjob threads that i can come to the house and everything will be peaceful in room 13.

 

Hi everyone.Hope everyone is okay.Loved the photos of you and babyp in the lavender fields MamaPeace - thanks for sharing.Well I went into Enfield town today to buy two nice new towels,as I now I have a bath! (I've only been able to shower for the last 18 months.) I know it's a bit indulgent but I love taking a nice relaxing bath.I then Bought two house-plants for my room - a Butterfly Palm and a Leopard Lily.Been listening to a Pink Floyd album I haven't heard before,it's called "Meddle" - it's very mellow.I'm cooking brown rice with Courgettes and mushrooms gently fried in olive oil 2nite - it's nice with a bit of light soy sauce.If anyone wants to try some there'll be plenty.Enjoy the melodic sunshine!

 

Hi Eherea.

I'm trying to protect the young people from the old crazies.

It looks like the Summer of Love down there in the basement. There must be 30 imaginary people, and backpacks on the ground and Sleeping bags everywhere. Some are standing there with their brown cardboard hitchhiking signs in there hands. “San Francisco” written on the all. One chick is telling this handsome cat that it took her 5 days to thumb from Quebec. Another Cat is rolling his very last joint to share with everyone. And over in the corner there's 3 chicks giggling and checking on all of the cats with there long hair.

Kenny, is explaining the Crash Pad rules.
"Most Crash Pads in the Haight and most peoples private homes will usually put a person up for one night, some maybe three nights. Because there are so many people on Haight Street we need to give other people Shelter and a space to crash in, too. So, we do three days, and in that time maybe you can find a roof or roommate thing, somewhere. And after three days you can always make another phone call to the Haight-Ashbury Switchboard and ask them to set you up with another place. Things and space availability need from the Switchboard, changes from day to day. They can help you find room mate places, and maybe find work for money if you need that."

“If Switchboard doesn't need the space for any new people by your 3rd day, then you can stay the next night. Of course"

"You have a free place to stay. Please be of respectful the place. Help us keep it clean. Please don’t steal anything. If you need money talk to people.”

"Please be respectful of the folks upstairs, who live here. They are your hosts. They pay the rent, here. They each chip in out of their one pockets to pay for toilet paper and bath soup for you guys. Use the bathroom on this floor, bar soap, do your laundry, whatever you need there. Clean the bathtub for the next person. Clean the bathroom for the next person. That’s how it works.

You can use the old stereo here in the crash pad and the records here."

"Food. You can do your own thing. If you want to eat here for dinner, you need to come up with a dollar. If you don't have it, you can spare change for dimes and quarters up there on Haight Street. You just need 4 quarters. Around 4 o'clock someone who is on kitchen duty or cooking that night, will be around someplace to gather everyone's money or food stamps and names, and then they go to the grocery store. Important. Everyone washes the plate and glass and silver that they use. That's how it works. If we all do a little it all runs smooth and no one person has to do a lot."

"If you stay more than 3 days. There's a piece of paper on the frig door. Make sure to get yourself on that kitchen list. Each day there's two people. One to cook, and one as a helper and to clean pots. Talk to others here and find out what you and they can do and pair up."

If any of you are runaways…" About 7 kids look at each other, like is this guy psychic or something? "…There is a flier right there on the wall for an organization called Huckleberry House. There's a phone number. Their whole purpose is to help. They are there to talk to, about your situation, if you want. They will not call the police on you. They will not call your parents on you. They can also find you shelter. Please don’t call your parents from our phone. (Typical black rotary dial telephone.) We don’t want to go to jail, because someone wasn’t thinking and picked up the phone and dialed. Okay?"

"Any questions?" They all look around. Nobody asks the older hippie anything.

Okay it's 1967 out there. Go Have Fun. The sidewalks on Haight Street are standing room only. You can go make the scene. Or stay in this house and CHAT here.

Actually it could be anywhere from 1964 to 1973 out there. Depending on the music that needs to be available. Live your own time.

 

Glad that you enjoyed it, Fairlight.

I hope the world is smiling on you today.

 

It is finally cooling off now and is a beautiful evening, the sky is pink on the horizon with not one cloud. I think there is a bottle of wine in the kitchen.:2thumbsup:

 

I see the pink sky too shame I cant quite see the horizon, too many buildings in the way

 

I want to get a combie to travel around in and meet all of you
