Church of the Good Earth 1963 and Beyond

Hi Ranger, Hi Sag Nasty

Sorry about the drama. But what is life without them, dull and boring.. grab some:lurk5: and enjoy the show

 

Can I get some soda pop with that Ma'am?

 

So, Mike I was responding the Shameless with regard to the topic of the Quote Book UnQuote. That was NOT directed AT YOU at all. Far from it.

In response to what she posted, I was trying to quell the continueios rumors that that we are doing a book about the church of the good Earth. And that somehow it is some kind of a Good Earth project. Fuck, there is no Good Earth, that is what we are all working toward establishing and creating and bringing together. The Good Earth can't own a book, if there is No real legal Good Earth. Make sense? Logic here please. Not emotions. thanks you.

That is what this incorporation is all about, being a REAL legal Thing.

We've not been on that topic for a while. So, you don't have all of the information on that one.

There is a project that I had started. (Note here: A big part of what I do for a living is Laying out books. I have the software for that.) We have roughly 100 pages in lay out. probably 150 to 200 in regular typed documents. Like Word®.

It is Haight-Ashbury centric. But includes other places. Like where people where coming from and there deal before they arrived in the Haight.

The theme of the book project is the 60s and early 70s, the entire Hippie scene, San Francisco, Haight-Ashbury, and some other places nooks and crannies.

The whole thing is about a collective of contributors to the project. You are of course invited.

Please read this, and write it down.

Its a big collection of short stories. Its all about everybody's ADVENTURES. You can make up a pen name, be Anonamous, or use your Hippie name, or your real name.
The book is Nonfiction, except for the stories the contain stuff that is illegal, which are fictional.

Cakes has written the most. It is a For money project. Her cut of the booty will be the percentage of what her final page count is. Me too. Ranger too. You too.

Everybody thinks of the 60s and the hippie scene in the Haight as super wild and wonderful times. That's what we are selling to the public. Sex, Romance, Drugs, High times on the High Seas, Fun, Excitement, tales of daring DO. Swashbuckling, Fare Maidens, Bar room dance hall gals from the old west saloons, Flower children, Bikers, Free love, going to the clinic, all of the good times and all of the bad times. the ups the downs. The real truth.

I forgot to mention Rock 'n' Roll. I guess that I was focus too much on the sex and the drugs, back then. LOL

 

Tanx...and g'day to everyone! The snow is finally melting in boise. Now i just hope i can remember how to ride.

 

sagittarius nasty,

Glad that your back!

If you want to, you too can tell some tall tales of yesteryear. WE don't post them here in public. Ask for my e-mail address. That one is for you to decide. To write or not to write, that is the question.

Glad that you're around.

 

Wow...hippie porn! Woohoo!

 

Ah, man, you'll remember how to ride.

Like they say:
Its like riding a bicycle. Once you learn, you never forget.

LOL

Its time to "Get in the Wind"
Just don't freeze to death.

 

I think my tales come closer to porn than the other ones.. but that's just me..lol

 

Yup. Hippie porn, too.

Readers love salacious. And we are going for a best seller Book.

 

I think i remember how to write. I'll bite.

 

Hey you are in like flynn.

Oh goody, tall tales from Sag Nasty, this is getting better by the day.

You are at 14 postings. Its say that below your name. When you get to, I believe it is twenty posting, the system switches you to a different classification, and you suddenly have the ability to do "private massages."

When you can do "private massages" I will give ya my e-mail address.
Not putting in public.

Most of our stories are a one page or a half of a page to 2, or 3 pages. One or two stories are like 5. If you just do short stuff, that's okay too. Write freely, don't be inhibited. Think- you are spinnin' a yarn, like an' old pirate or something. The writing style is "Telling yer Tales".

 

I wish Mike were here and that I could be saying that to him. Too.

 

I'm using a not-very-smartphone. How do we swap emails?

 

Got it

 

16 posts.
Getting closer.
I think that it will no longer read "Guest" below your name.

 

This is what I was asking for Mike to re-edit, so that I could understand what he was trying to say.

Is that why he is pissed off at me????????????????????????????????????

 

He didn't like what you said about the tree idea.. nor the fact that you OMG want to make some money.. wow.. you know you aren't allowed to want money.. ?!?

I do not know what to say. I do know that I am not responsible for anyone but myself.

 

I mean, before that, Mike had asked about that we should have a cause or a mission.

(writing a book is not a mission.)

I was trying to get a conversation going with Mike and everybody else about hippie missions. Change the world. And the rest of that list.

Mike, You never added to our list. I want a serious conversation on doing this stuff.

What's up with that? You say you want to do a mission and then you avoid the subject that you insisted on starting in the first place. No response.

 

See, I don't know that, because I don't see where he had typed that. So, I'm glad that you are telling me this.

Okay, Mike. We'll make an oak tree logo and put it on everything. We will never try to make money and all die of starvation 5 days from today. And I promise to throw away a years worth of everyone's hard written works, just to please you, and I'll start working on a new book that is only about the Church of the Good Earth, and Not one person who was EVER In Good Earth wants to be bothered to write about. I've asked for 2 years if anyone wish to write a book specifically about just there time at Good Earth. In 2 years time NO ONE has sent a Good Earth story. Not one.

But lots of hippie stories have been sent to me.

You want a Church of the Good Earth book with nothing written in it? So, start one. You can spend over $100 thousand dollars for the printing company and for paper and binding, to make real books, and then you can give those away for free. To people who don't want them. Do it.

If you don't accomplish all of that, then you are just a big hypocrite. So there. Na nana na na.

I love you. We love you. Get your shit together.

 

I wonder what Mike thinks that they use to use to pay the rent on the Oak Street with. It was MONEY!
