GISHWHES is coming. Just putting it out there now to let that little seed start to grow.
What is GISHWHES you ask? Well, I'm sure some of you may remember me mentioning how I wanted to do this kind of cool digital, online scavenger hunt that was a mash up of random acts of kindness and breaking the concept of normalcy. It is simply the Greatest International Scavenger Hunt The World Has Ever Seen and a 4 time Guinness World Record breaking one at that.
This is GISHWHES .
The thing is I have no desire to win. My very simple goals are to face some fears of my own (of which I have several that need tackling) and to shake things up for myself and anyone who would like to join me. I, or we, need a team of 15. I think its also $20 per participant, but don't get over stressed about that there are sometimes ways around it. Don't worry if we can't come up with 15 they blend us with another group. Last year it was held for a week in August and its looking like that's going to be the same case for this year.
So like I said, I'm just putting this out there now. Let the idea settle. Maybe take root and see where it goes.
Lately the news has been so dreary and everyday seems like we are beating our collective heads against brick walls of stupidity and selfishness. It just feels like we need something hopeful, fun and maybe restorative for our faith in humanity.

Speaking as someone from 'Deliverance" country, I have no problem with hearing "Dueling Banjos" when people poke fun at ignorant rednecks like Bundy.
Comment by Raine on 04/25/2014 14:35:47
I loved how the caller said everyone from NY, myself…
And he claimed he was insulted? He insulted the entire East Coast, and the show in in LA!

I secretly believe that Cliven Bundy is actually Slim Pickens and this is all a great hoax. Also Andy Kaufman is still alive and Mayor Rob Ford is actually Chris Farley.

Good morning, bloggers!!
I hope that everyone is doing well.
I had a long day of cleaning here and helping my late friend Mickey's nephew do more cleaning and take care of other stuff related to his uncle. I drove the old man's Cadillac back to the dealership.
In good news, I am busy job hunting and waiting for calls on interviews.

I'm fine with my contacts - hate the puff test I still just back, then there's the test where they put this mildly pointing thing as close to your eye as possible to look inside - hate that

OK… This is just stunning.
Damn that 'negro' going an getting himself assassinated. It's all his fault. 
"I took this boot off so I wouldn’t put my foot in my mouth with the boot on," Bundy said. "Let me see if I can say something. Maybe I sinned, and maybe I need to ask forgiveness, and maybe I don't know what I actually said, but when you talk about prejudice, we're talking about not being able to exercise what we think.
“If I say 'Negro' or 'black boy' or 'slave,' if those people cannot take those kind of words and not be [offended], then Martin Luther King hasn't got his job done yet," he added. "We need to get over this prejudice stuff."

Dear Cliven Bundy…
The reason why black people don't look happy when you are around is simple because they are not happy that you are around.
Peace.
