Why does Studio Eight work?

[MrGuilty]

say good night gracie

Man you touched a nerve with the 'A" word doreen
I am a child of the fifties
Nobody more adusted tten Sylvia Plath.
Talk about pain.

I am being pretty Freudian here Doreen
Nobody more stupid about women than me Doreen
with the possible exception of Freud
St Anne of Sexton a martyr to freud.
Sometimes a cigar is just jaw cancer

[Doreen Peri]

what A word?

[stilltrucking]

Good question doreen
I thought you used the word 'adjusted' or well adjusted, somewhere up above.

But I have re-read this thread three times and I can't find it.

It was a big thing in the fifties and sixtiesfor me, being adjusted. We were all trying so hard to be adusted, or at least I was. Sorry I got off on an irrelephant topic.

[stilltrucking]

Ah Ha

American Heritage Dictionary - mis·fit

One who is unable to adjust to one's environment or circumstances or is considered to be disturbingly different from others.

That A word. Sorry I date myself. That was before your time.

I am just passing through thinking about a very nice movie called The Out Casts of Poker Flats. I am also thinking about MM's last movie I think? The Misfits. Or maybe it was Clark Gable's last movie.

[Lightning Rod]

jack,

your mind is an eternal fascination for me

I just want you to know that

you take me to places I never imagined

doreen will catch on eventually about what an honor it is to be an outcast

she's just cross with me right now and won't agree with anything I say

[stilltrucking]

That's high praise coming from you CJ
You know Dante put the violent and the murderers in circle seven
But he put the hypocrites and flatters in number eight.

I told Firsty that he writes like Ted Williams hit
But you know the splendid splinter never tipped his hat to those yankees.
Screw them he said
I hit a home run they cheer me
I strike out they boo me
I am the same guy.

I'll probably write something so crappy next time you will cringe.

thanks for the flowers.

[Lightning Rod]

jack,

I am not that familiar with the particular rings of hell
I know that Dante invented them
and not Satan who probably has something more sinister in mind

as far as reviews
I never pay any attention to them
yes, I'm the same guy

I hit a home run one day and strike out the next
it's the nature of the game

flowers always to you, my friend
sometimes alive and sometimes dead

[stilltrucking]

I don't know much about Dante either. TK got me thinking about him with this pomesy

at Cafe Malebolgia

I been trying to work up the nevrve to ask him about the word 'Malebolgia'

I think it is the name of the 8th circle, there are diferent 'bolgia's dividing the circles but only the eight circle is called the malebolgia. I been looking at the diagrams of hell in the book but I have not sorted it out yet.

Spring is blooming in the wild flower state. Lady Bird wanted wanted to put that texas motto on liscense tags but the pecker heads in Austin did not think it was macho enough.

I like that ole Waylon song "Bob Wills is still the king."

But I sing the lyrics a little different

"The honky tonks in texas were my natural home
Where you tip your hat to the ladies
And the rose of san antone
But it don't matter who's in austin
Lady Bird is still the queen.

Not sure what that has to do with anything.
I just like the song

[judih]

i'm definitely a misfit and i'm doing my humble best to recruit others, if they choose to step outa line.

this place works cause there's room for whoever shows up. right, left, outa the box, deep inside the box, unaware of boxes...there's room.

there's love in this place, humility, pride, anger and remorse. There's ins and outs and not quite sures.

and the banners help me remember that life is constantly moving, no matter what gets stuck in the wrong place.

[stilltrucking]

I am an out cast
low caste
refuse from teeming shores

We all fit together so nice
here in Doreen's Garden

Nice, nice, very nice;
Nice, nice, very nice;
Nice, nice, very nice--
So many different people
In the same device.

I think Doreen has an excellent sense of humor Clay. But you know that better than me.
You know Gracie Allen was one smart cookie.



Want to here a sappy song?

Verse :
D G
Man has been to the moon,done 'bout all a man can do
D A
But a woman is the wonder of the world
D G
From her head to her toes man ain't caught what she can throw
D A D
Yes,a woman is the wonder of the world

When are we going to catch on? I mean us gray beards.

[stilltrucking]

What makes studio eight work?
lets call a spade a spade
a rose a rose

Doreen mostly

But you know girsl will be good old girls and boys will be
Good Old Boys



My mother would get nauseous everytime The Dukes of Hazard came on. She could not change the channel fast enough.

They dam near ruined a good old song.

[izeveryboyin]

I think everyone in some way, shape, or form, can be considered a misfit given the right situation. I definitely find that more often than not, I am always in the right situation to be considered a misfit... or would that be the wrong situation?

[stilltrucking]

That is true, but we come we go
the whole is greater than the sum of its members They say.
Just hard for me to imagine this place without Doreen

[Arcadia]

outcast:
adjetivo: 1-desechado, inútil. 2-expulso, degradado
sustantivo: 1- paria, vagabundo 2- exilado, desterrado, expatriado 3- desecho, sobra, desperdicio 4- riña

misfit
sustantivo: 1- lo que no sienta, ajusta, entalla o encaja bien 2- persona inadaptada

wow, they are intense words!!
outcast: in the sobra sense it sounds maybe too postmodern-postmortem but it could be!!, vagabunda...maybe.
misfit: I have to say that sometimes I like to feel a bit misfit in a mainstream-sobre-adaptation world.

why does it work?
does it work...? (I´m joking!)
because each one of us
a warm mix of a presentia in absentia (or viceversa) through words, musica and images.
who knows?
