"Some of us are like ink and some like paper.
And if it were not for the blackness
of some of us, some of us would be dumb.
And if it were not for the whiteness
of some of us, some of us would be blind."
Kahlil Gibran - whatta way to say thank you == whatta great day's been today. Coffee + Cardamom, kudzu cleared and yes, the nitrogenated soil has a dark, breathable hue to it - some of the best dirt I've ever laid eyes on. Turning the brambles down into the soil about eight to twelve inches or so should leave plenty of food for worms and give next years crops something special to root in :) So far so good.

Virginia Goat Herders Attack Kudzu - Kudzu Fights Alcohol Back
Kudzu Korner next to chez wahoowa and the tracks - this is where the initial harvest may begin...
Final Answer Courtesy Apalachia Science in the Public Interest - managing kudzu in south western virginia
West Virginia Goat Study adds Kudzu Management to the list of cool goat funktions. The Virginia State Dairy posse knows this all too well, yet their local hero John Coles - o tempora, o mores... ya know?
kick kudzu in the kiester and get back to your big backyard!
Also check out Kudzu Cuisine some nice recipes - a vinegar I bet she end's up selling on Ebay :)
In a bizarre twist kudzu is also well known in China as a drinking dispeller, an unusual property according to David Lee of Research Park
This may be good news for the wahoos - Charlottesville's a village covered in kudzu and booze.

Community Security Cameras & Phone-a-thon North Korea
Got a new site going up - bit of a tongue twister. Anyhow, its funktion is to focus attention on the up side of massive, affordable camera and recording technology.
Phone-a-thon North Korea - raise 1,000,000 cameraphones for North Korea - reaching out and not touching. As a general rule it seems almost any two average people can get along. As a general rule it is the massive egos ruling nations that sets stuff to ruin. North Korea suffers one of the greatest most despotic regimes ever recorded. Add to that a couple of Nukes and it's time we get to negotiating. We can let our leaders do some of that, and with "Kick Mass" Condi around it's more likely than ever to happen - we need to get in there though, and explain to these people what's going on!!! They're our brothers and sisters, ya'll or close enough, and letting them suffer brings great suffering to everyone. Please help with ideas or items,
Spread the love - if you're reading this you can help.

Brian Park, Meadow Creek, DynaMIT, ILUTE, and UrbanSIM
Digital urban landscaping is legos for geeks. Uber-geeks like Dr. Byungkyu Park of UVa's prestigous Civil Engineering department lead teams of students through missions on a Sim Cityish level capturing dynamic data from highways to discover efficiencies in transportation scenarios... collaborating with the MIT team they have developed an open source model known as DynaMIT. One can easily imagine a posse of geeks banging around in labs at two in the morning gobbling coffee while listening to the latest AC/DC record slamming in the background.
Dr. Park immediately recognized my intentions and graciously steered me away from, by the sounds of it, what would be a great alternative for a senior thesis project...
Dr. Park spoke realistically and to our means, also suggesting that we work with the service groups in the department and think about using a tested model survey such as TACOS designed in Toronto, Canada.
So after looking around it's probably going to be UrbanSim and ILUTE
tutorials to come in sha'allaah

Neo (sporin) Nazi
Neosporin kicks ass. Neosporin demolishes virus, bacteria, fungi and it kills it fast. It's brutal. It slays meager and ruthless ectodermal flora and fauna like homeboy makes hay. Speaking of making f-in hay what the heck is the deal with the dopes driving their lawnmowers around the yard - taking gasoline and turning the blood, sweat, and lives of American Soldiers to have a nice lawn. That's a mess, that's not funny at all. That's so irresponsible it makes me wonder what has happened to the balls of the men in America. Men, look in there. If you don't see a pair of nuts you are in "trouble" to say the least. You are making bad decisions and all the rest of the men in the world are all laughing at you.
This does not apply to gardeners and this does not apply to lawn-caretakers who are often the baddest of the breed.
This refers to the schmucks who sit their with FUBAR lawnmowers twice a week to keep your wifey on the suck. Listen bro, it's not worth it. So do something else. Wait and let it get gnarly. Let it get three or four feet high, and harvest the stuff. At least then you're a badass.
This is for your own good. If you don't have a pair of nuts, pretend. Stop mowing your grass. If you must kill, be a neo-sporin nazi. There's plenty of killin for everyone, and everyone knows you gotta keep your eye on the little guy!
