Colorado Gonzo: Five


"Is This A Criminal Interrogation?" by peoplesDuke

Encountered a Viking man in Saguache, Colorado.  Getting gas and paying inside.  He was wearing layers of fur, his belt held it all together, he was barefoot.  It was 19 degrees.  Inside he quipped "Is this a criminal interrogation?" when asked where he was headed.  Said he was going North to see his daughters.  As we were leaving, gassed up and watered up, we saw the Viking man walking back and forth from the rear of his parked station wagon to the front, with the hood up.  Right by the exit.  When asked if he needed help he became bellicose and said he dressed like this and has a job, and all that.  He demanded an apology.

"DOBRA" by MTB

Sunday looks to be the better day weather-wise.  Also, I'm working Friday.  Down for a Sunday ride.  Trails will probably be wet, but I'd love to hit one. Let's check DORBA later in the week.

Almost died up there.  Trudged through groin-high snow to save myself from a wrong turn.  Almost died up there.



"Mind Over Soul Endures" by jpg

thought in succession
rapid and easy
the day awaits
like a mountain a hundred miles away

loose but altered
very selectively
first thought best thought
proposing actual thought as worthy of expression too

these lines and patterns
weaving, skipping,
hiding, brutal and proud
mind over body fades, mind over soul endures

Red Mud Gonzo: Twenty Nine

  "No Controversy" by jpg Researching Max Purcell.  Has a Wimbledon title in doubles.  No controversy to speak of, but he's only won a third of his singles matches for his career.  Michael Mmoh's got wins against Zverev, Auger-Alassime, and Hubie.  Both 26 years of age, Purcell's won $3.5 million, Mmoh's at $2.5 million.  Not bad. "Whataburger Sucks" by jpg TTop was curious about the knife.  This dude spent 5 years in the Mojave desert, said he lost his sense of reality, said he'd defend his country again if he had to, I thought he wanted something to go down.  Told TTop the knife was for killing humans, if needed.  He wore his pistol in a holster for everyone to see.  *The double meat burger at the TX Burger in Fairfield, Texas was 5 of 5 stars.  Deep down, we all know Whataburger sucks. "1st Victim" by The Mayor Dumb ass.  Loses the element of surprise and becomes the 1st victim.  Add to it, he is carrying an oversi...

Maniacs And Friends

last night i dreamed i forgave everybody for anything ever done anytime before. there were fathers, brothers, sisters, and mothers, not to mention extended family. then the people all around -- toilers, drivers, watchers, lovers, maniacs, and friends. things they did, said, implied, yelled, things they ignored, they insisted, they resisted. i was talking with each of them individually, taking my time, and we were committed. nods and shakes, aknowledgments accepted and replaced with a debt of some sort. a responsibility to forgive others in the same manner, slate picked clean and put up. minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years, and generations will pass either way.
