"If trashpo has taught me anything its that every windblown street corner and cyclone fence is a veritable Dick Blick of free art materials."

Thanks Diane, KDJ, Lynn for all your help. I think I can make it back now so long as I don't run into Toxis agents upon my return. But I think I may hang out here for awhile, Ive been talking with Jim Morrison, he's still alive over here. He and John Cage have been writhing some incredible music together. Wait maybe I'm asleep and this is a dream. Are dreams anything like a parallel universe?

No judgement here, Sandi! I have plenty of those moments daily! I like to think of them as brain farts: too much oxygen + too much to compute = brain fart. :D

Comment by Sandi Wedemeier on July 1, 2012 at 7:08pm

Lynn - This was a "d'oh" moment for me. Mail art but no address?! D'oh!

Comment by Lynn Radford on July 1, 2012 at 6:21pm

Welcome, Sandi! Would love to send you mail, but no address listed? Are you hiding from Toxis? I wonder...

Diane, I spent a portion of yesterday's Happy Hour sending some HAPPY in Latanya's direction. I wonder if you looked her up on any social websites... I would like to know the status of her well-being.... Quite the stash of  life bits in these notes... Sharing is essential for awareness. Thank you.

Not Hi Ng, my hope is that you have been able to regain composure, thus figuring a way back on your own by now... Should you still require assistance, I will send you some at 6pm Est. Tune in then. P.S. KDJ has the right idea...Dkult tats may provide the clarity of thought you need to figure this out on your own, if not, they will at least identify you as a friendly for those of us who might make the same mistake and stumble upon you in this parallel universe.

Nothing, an emergency measure akin to breaking the glass, is to put an empty trashbin over your head. This will allow us to send theta waves directly to your brain and create a wormhole for you to travel through-back to the safety of Dkult. I hope this works as the Toxis Agents are getting more and more militant. They have been leading protests stating that Dkult is an abomination. We're sending some Dkulters to infiltrate Toxis to stay a step ahead. Good luck!

Lisa, thanks for the link. I will submit to them once I can get copies of the notes. you can only upload one file at a time from the site. you guys rule

I received my Official Trashpo/DKult I-D-Kard from DVS yesterday. As instructed I activated it and kept it with me. I must caution those who carry one to be very careful with it's use. This card has very powerful magic associated with it. As I was emerging from a dumpster on Minna St. in San Francisco, I was approached by TOXIS Agents demanding my trash. The instructions told me in these situations to close my eyes, click my heels & say where I want to be transmitted to. Unfortunately in my state of fear I stuttered. I don't know exactly where I am but I appear to be in a parallel universe. People keep calling me No Thin G. Does anyone know how to get home from here?

Wow Diane, this is powerful stuff!
