everyone has said everything there is to say....

To Salote. 		Mahalo every bug Salote, 15 Jul 2009 05:42
for the birthday wishes! I've been traveling...Hawaii of course and then to Big Sur...home again with a suitcase full of garlic and artichokes! :D

To Isabella. 		Wow, Isabella, 15 Jul 2009 06:04
Big Sur! Did you stop at Nepenthe's? Did you stay at Esalen?

To Salote. 		Better than Esalen Salote, 15 Jul 2009 22:59
we stayed at a private home on the coast. One of the Esalen chefs cooked for me! okay well I was at the home when he cooked and got to eat. Watched and picked up a few pointers too.

:D

To Omena. 		And I get to be in the documentary Omena, 15 Jul 2009 06:35
about the Gilroy Garlic Festival. I play the role of the tourist who takes photos of the ''Gilroy: Garlic Capital of the World'' mural. Of course, I'd never in a million years be caught dead doing such a touristy thing as taking photos of a wall when the film crew just happened to drive by and ask if I could stand there and take another (no! the first one!) picture of the wall. So, I did it for the sake of the arts.

To Salote. 		Om was so tongue-tied Salote, 15 Jul 2009 23:02
I stepped in with MY opinions.... like why isn't there any garlic ice cream in Gilroy .... and why isn't there a '' Herbie ''bobble head'' this year.... and what is that peculiar odor in the air? Oh .... :D

www.ksbw.com/news/20004951/detail.html

To Isabella. 		No garlic ice cream?? Isabella, 15 Jul 2009 23:50
Google The Stinking Rose in Beverly Hills, they have it. Plus see garlic recipes.

To Salotehawaiii. 		I was Salotehawaiii, 16 Jul 2009 05:47
just making noise. I didn't want any garlic ice cream and the bobble heads were UGLY. But it was for ''Art'' so.....

no drama in progress?

To Isabella. 		No, Isabella, 17 Jul 2009 19:50
but am considering Dramamine for the nausea the splats are causing.

To Nothing. 		ha ha! understand, 17 Jul 2009 22:21

To Rosibutterfly. 		Belated Birthday Wishes Salo .. Rosibutterfly, 18 Jul 2009 09:14
But I have to ask .. why a case full of garlic and artichokes? Are neither of these splendid vegies available in ElvisLand? ♥

To Salote. 		Thanks Rosi! Salote, 18 Jul 2009 20:04
They are available, but not as fresh as what I brought and I can not get the little artichokes that are so great for stuffing! Also most of the garlic sold here is Chinese and thus ancient and ready to sprout! The Gilroy garlic rules!
There is lots of fresh local grown produce here now but no 'chokes and no garlic....

To Salote. 		Nobodyhere trivia... Salote, 19 Mei 2009 04:44
what is the largest number of bugs that have been in the sink at one time? And when was it, and is there a screen shot?

To Elling. 		yes, there was a screen shot Elling, 19 Mei 2009 17:30
it was perhaps some sort of wedding, or party before i came here and everyone was still as gay as a summers ''How is your cat today Martha?''

To Nothing. 		hi hhh, 09 Sep 2009 08:18
hi

To Salote. 		more on opossum Salote, 25 Jan 2009 05:04
They eat all types of insects, including cockroaches, crickets, beetles, etcetera. They catch and eat rats, roof rats, mice, and they consume dead animals of all types (carrion). They like over-ripe fruit, berries, and grapes. And they think snails and slugs are a delicacy! Nature's little Sanitation Engineers!!

To Nothing. 		Still havn't gotten rid of my possums Live and let live, 24 Jan 2009 10:38
There's a whole family of them, at the very least. Even after I trapped one and brought it across the river, they're still here. It's almost like I helped to spread them. What do I do? Poor stinky possums. Eating everything within site. How can I blame them? They just want what I want.

To Wahoo. 		Scatter moth balls Wahoo, 24 Jan 2009 20:57
around where they hang out, and don't feed them, they will leave..

To Nothing. 		Thanks for the mothball tip Kiwi Longhaired Possum, 24 Jan 2009 21:48
But as for food, they eat their fill of fruits and vegetables from the neighborhood. And now that it's winter they presumably eat whatever garbage they can find, and they'll probably stay around here because of that. I'll try the mothballs though, but nothing more. I'll leave them be. A knitter friend of mine has yarn made of possum fur from New Zealand. She made a scarf out of it. It's very warm and soft. The ones here have too short of fur for that though, so they're just stuck looking cute and horrible.

To Salote. 		possums Salote, 25 Jan 2009 04:57

a Hillerman yarn....

To Magician. 		What's Magician, 27 Okt 2008 22:07
a Hillerman yarn?

To Nothing. 		It astounds me that yawn spinning spoidah, 28 Okt 2008 01:03
people who are on the internet so much can't even make use of such things as google or wikipedia. In the time it took me to type this you could have looked that up, and if you had $10 you could click with your mouse onto amazon and a Hillerman yarn would show up on your doorstep two days later. Or, I heard that in some places they have these things called libraries, that are full of billions of sheets of PAPER! with words on them! And you can ''borrow'' them for free. Can you imagine?

To Magician. 		Salote specifically brought it up, Magician, 28 Okt 2008 02:42
so I figured s/he might like to explain it him/herself.

To Nothing. 		oooooooh shit. looks like brighter days are ahead!, 28 Okt 2008 03:30
rational argument saves the day once again.

To Nothing. 		I agree! Chill Pill for $10 on Amazon, 28 Okt 2008 05:19
Sometimes people post things here not for the cat's ass but as an invitation to enquire further. And if it is not an invitation then presumably and at the very least the person posting it won't mind elaborating because they are a reasonable person recognising that as they posted it in the first place, they may as well answer questions that may arise. while the google/wiki argument is reasonable, the $10 and library ones are not - why invest time and/or money to simply have a question as to what something is answered, when the same can be attempted by asking a friendly question?

To Nothing. 		I mean this is actually winding me up, hurrah!, 28 Okt 2008 05:22
would you expect the same from a person in conversation with you? You bring something up, they don't know what it is and ask you what it is, do you then refer them to google in an exasperated manner?

To Nothing. 		listen prick, sorry if I ruined your 'trick', magician, 28 Okt 2008 05:22
I wasn't trying to argue, I was merely pointing out that people seem to exhibit some semblance of intellectual curiosity, yet completely negate it with their own laziness. Yeah, I'm sure the world will be so much fucking brighter when you find out Hillerman was an award winning author that died yesterday. There's more interesting shit on his single wikipedia page than there is on the last hundred pages of these splats. So you can have your fucking rational argument, you win, you're still stupid and lazy.

To Nothing. 		not trying to argue and directly or is that just me?, 28 Okt 2008 05:26
challenging someone on their behaviour in an irritated manner seem mutually exclusive

To Nothing. 		I didn't challenge anyone Have fun arguing, illiterates, 28 Okt 2008 05:42
And this isn't a conversation, it's an anonymous message board. Pointing someone toward google and wikipedia is not being exasperated or irritated, it's no more than a right click away. And the fact still remains that unless you've read Hillerman or something about him, you are completely ignorant on the subject. Nice try though.

To Nothing. 		you are obviously quite upset this illiterate reads & writes, miracle, 28 Okt 2008 06:11
about Hillerman passing away and I send you my condolances along with my understanding that in your grief you make the grave thinking error that this trail is about the aforementioned author or his work where it quite clearly is not.

To Nothing. 		''rational argument saves the day GS, 28 Okt 2008 06:24
once again'' was all me, so you can't blame magician for that one. what a warm welcome we're giving him/her!

To Nothing. 		What a cold goodbye to Hillerman you sure waste a lot of time on here, 28 Okt 2008 07:18
I'm not blaming Magician for other peoples ignorance, just for Magician's. If you had simply looked up ''hillerman yarn'' we wouldn't have had this exchange at all. Out of respect for the late Tony Hellerman, I'd like to bow out of this non-argument. He/she/it/they can have it. Morons. And I could tell that was you, GS, by the cadence of your yapping approval.

To Nothing. 		Well, you made me do it respect is spelling his name correctly, 28 Okt 2008 07:26
I googled the name, because I needed to know if it's Hillerman or Hellerman

To Magician. 		Hillerman Yarn Magician, 28 Okt 2008 18:50
Heh, I come back today and this huge argument has started up. I'm sorry if I offended anyone. Just because you asked, I did try to look up Hillerman yarn. I found out about Hillerman the writer, but I still didn't know if Salote was talking about a story by the writer or if Salote just liked to knit. I'm really not here to argue, and I'm not here to 'win' an argument. Again, I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I just think this site would be a better place if people would not attack each other just because Person A thinks Person B did something stupid.And one last thing: if you aren't trying to argue and you just want to reasonably point out that someone could have done something better, I don't recommend using sarcasm. It hurts a lot of people's feelings.

To Nothing. 		I disagree rare case of perfection, dont screw it, 28 Okt 2008 20:01
I think this site simply could not be better.

To Nothing. 		Yeah, yeah, I went there, 28 Okt 2008 20:26
You know who else wanted to make the world a better place? Hitler, that's who.

To Nothing. 		Another constructive contribution! point in case, 28 Okt 2008 21:14
I told you this site is already perfect.

To Nothing. 		and I could tell tha it was you, friend, Fernando, 29 Okt 2008 02:26
from your arrogant hubris!

To Nothing. 		excuse me, Nando, 29 Okt 2008 02:27
''that''

To Nothing. 		What? Shiny Happy Hubris, 01 Nov 2008 07:34
What other type of hubris is there?

To Nothing. 		well, if I had TC problems I'd be TC crazy too, 01 Nov 2008 19:49
the humble hubris like that of Tom Cruise

To Salote. 		I still enjoy a good Salote, 28 Okt 2008 13:02
Tony Hillerman story. He was very good at bringing to life and explaining some of the territory and customs of the Native Americans who live in the American Southwest. My English teacher always said

To Salote. 		oops Salote, 28 Okt 2008 13:03
there I go again thinkin' y'all are mind readers

To Nothing. 		Yarn I guess half assed is better than nothin, 28 Okt 2008 20:22
So even after looking it up, you still don't know what it means. I weep for our future :(

To Salote. 		Webster Dictionary.... Salote, 28 Okt 2008 20:50
2: a narrative of adventures ; especially : a tall tale

To Nothing. 		Thanks Salote! No bug left behind, 28 Okt 2008 20:57
Not only are we not mind readers, but we can't read in context or use dictionaries either.

To Magician. 		Psh, it's fine. Magician, 28 Okt 2008 18:56
You said something quite neutral, it's not your fault everyone got so excited over it. Have you read Ceremony by Leslie Marmon Silko? It addresses post-traumatic stress disorder and the condition of Pueblo natives in the Southwest. That book changed my life.
