Hey McGravitas, the status of one of hippy jobs is "Position Manned". I have already resigned from my job as cattle scarer at The Glenn Beck Bar and Grill to go and seek my fortune!! You Monsta!!!

I dunno how a hippie WITH A JOB gets ideas about rising to another station. The world's a funny place.

Mr. Beck explained that's it's only a real job if you get paid money. Cow tails is not money.
Do you think the hippy trails to the new Shangri-la, Tel Aviv, are even now thronged with The Great Unwashed?

I hope so. It's very important to have more people in Israel who don't want to do much of anything.

When I see the IDF in Tie Dyed Flak jackets I'll know that they are on the right track.
I tried to translate the homepage of Shangri-la County in China but Google Translator told me it couldn't or wouldn't. The great fire wall at work, do you think? Judging by the pictures on the website, one of the attractions is nurses dressed as 17th century Dutch Milk Maids giving one injections whilst ones friend looks on cheerfully. Beat that hippy schlepppers.

...I am so intrigued by the mandarin duck therapeutic cards (not to mention the yes no angel cards). Fnimielim is the noise I make when I stifle a sneeze.

I really really hate those fucking pop ups. I have ready-written invective I fill them with.

just because

That was great.

As a liberal, I feel the government should force all people to wear stripey long underwear at all times.

I've often thought I should prepare some ready - written invective.

But then I looked outside. Birds were singing. Girls were wearing thongs. And I hadn't completely explored the possibilities represented by the taco model.

But I still think it would contribute to overall efficiencies...

JanusNode exists again. The original site vanished and somehow it's been archived, which is wonderful.

Another Kiwi said...

ckc (not kc) where did you get the secret tapes of the NZ soccer team practicing. This is an OUTRAGE!
But on a more serious note all sports events that are not refereed by a man in a rabbit suit are dead to me now.

That is some good stuff there!

Is the archetypal hippy in the little picture, Mr Burt Prelutsky? I realise that said hippy is smiling and Burt does not do the face stretchy thing, but if we could get the picture enlarged maybe we could see bungee cords.
