I love Jose.
period.
February 7, 2008
Jose' is one of the most 'centered' dudes I've ever met; he always knows just the right path through any social-minefield. On top of that, he's like *this* with the Funny.

He's also a hellova good Dad.

If the Dalai Lama can't make it to your party, You should probably invite Jose. Even if he CAN make it, you should probably invite Jose too. They'd have a lot to talk about. (His holiness is a big laugher, they'd get on great.)

That is simply to say that Jose is one of the most evolved people I think I've ever encountered. I have never seen him in a rage. I've never seen him abandon gentility and rationality, I've never seen him lose his civilized outlook. He looks at every situation from just about everyone's viewpoint, with malice toward none and charity for all. Oh yeah, he rants from time to time, but look what he rants AT: Incivility!

Maybe I've just missed him flipping out, but I don't think so. And if he DOES have a secret werewolf side, I really don't want to know, it would shake my faith. But I don't think so.

And incidentally, do you know that when the Dalai Lama DOES wear shoes, they are usually Doc Martens?

Do you have any Docs, Jose? Maybe you should consider a pair. Lay off the monks robes though, I just can't see you in them.

about me
What is there to say.... I'm dad to Nora Scout, who is the coolest kid in the world. I like most kinds of foods, but LOVE pie. I am a Libra/Monkey, and, while I don't usually buy into astrology, the stuff in the books is fairly accurate. I enjoy having coffee with friends & commiserating about the fuckwits that roam the earth. I hate being called a coconut. I think I look fat in most clothes. I speak English and Spanish fluently. I work at a travel company and at the Ren Faire. I like donuts. I learned juggling from actual circus people. I know alot of useless info. I'm kind of lost but I'm not a loser. I'm an Anglophile. I think breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but rarely indulge in it. I think Echo & the Bunnymen are the most underrated band of the 80's. I consider myself a misanthropic humanist. I like steak. I know how to Morris dance, country dance & do the Abbot's Bromley and miss performing those dances regularly. My favorite liqours are tequila & vodka. I also enjoy whiskey. I take things to heart, but am never crippled by them. I love beer, real beer, like Newcastle or Boddington's, though both of these are actually ales. I know what a bunghole is. I do a decent Christopher Walken impression. I sing and play coffee houses and write songs and may or may not make it big. I'm a big geek. I play guitar mildly well. I tend to cuss like a sailor arguing with a trucker, but with charm & elan. I use words like elan. I read comics. I'm the black sheep of my family...oooooh. lol Thank you for investing your time in reading this "About Me" diatribe... Any Questions?

To my friends in the German Guilds....

***********************

Guten Tag, mein Damen und Herren! (did I do that right?)

So, it has come to my attention that I may have caused a bit of a thing....

You all have seen the sneaky hitler, no doubt, around faire....and i actually did it, quickly, at morning meeting.

I had no idea how offensive some might find that bit, for whatever reason, be it one's Jewish background, or being tired of people only ever equating Germany and its histo... read more

1. Pick 15 of your favorite movies. (Some may have been used…or not….heh)
2. Go to IMDb (or other movie quote site) and find a quote from each movie.
3. Post them here for everyone to guess.
4. Fill in the film title once it's guessed.
5. NO GOOGLING / using IMDb search functions.

1. Find one in every car. You'll see.

2. No way you live. No way.

3. Christ you're worse than my dad, he's old, at least he's got an excuse for being a prick!

4. Laugh a while you can, monkey boy.

It's called Girls Rock! (www.girlsrockmovie.com/), and documents the Rock & Roll camp for Girls, where girls 8-18 go and learn ... read more

Re: Rule reminders - No non-pass people backstage & do not cross parades (in Hey! It's the RPFS Tribe!!) You also are a cast member on the weekends when this stuff is happening....

We (the stage managers) serve as eyes and ears and, as I mentioned, we defer serious issues to the appropriate department head.

I just pulled a pass last weekend f... read more

Re: Rule reminders - No non-pass people backstage & do not cross parades (in Hey! It's the RPFS Tribe!!) Allison, here's the thing...those random 'dicks' could be staff...

the trick is, ask who they are ( I always introduce myself when asking for a pass) and let someone know if they are being abusive, so that appropriate action can be taking.

Re: Rule reminders - No non-pass people backstage & do not cross parades (in Hey! It's the RPFS Tribe!!)
