Historic All-Ladies Leadership of The Florida Bar's Environmental and Land Use Law Section 2011-2012 - Chair Martha Collins, Chair-Elect Erin Deady, Secretary Nicole Kibert and Treasurer Kelly Samek - at the Annual Meeting at the 2012 ELULS Annual Update

 

GOOD CLEAN FUN - "A Song For The Ladies"

 

Don't settle for second best, don't follow all the rest

You say you want the same things well let's put it to the test

Because talk is so cheap when you are screaming at a wall

And it is really hard to hear when you're the loudest of them all

If you want to change the world, quit all your yapping

If we don't start it here, well then it's never going to happen

There is evil in this world but it begins right at home

So let's clean house, then let's cast the first stone

 

You think equal rights means equal hits

(We're sick of all your tough guy shit)

As you leave the show with the people you've hurt

(You wonder where you left your shirt)

Your a big tough guy and your dance moves are great

(Strong as an ox, dumber then slate)

Your new tattoos they look first rate

(You wonder why you can't get a date)

 

Sexism sucks! It didn't end in the 80's

And hardcore still needs another song for the ladies

Girlfriends are great, please don't get me wrong

But it's time to put down that coat and come sing along

Because I can't hear your voice from the back of the crowd

Move to the front, and shout it out loud

Keep your eyes on the prize, you know what I mean

If we can't change the world, then let's change the scene

 

Second class kids in the scene where we all live

I'm angry as hell, but I still stay positive

We'll fight this fight and I know we can do it

If there's a wall in our way, just watch us go through it

Because it's time to realize that we're all in the same boat

If you think you're so tough, then here, hold your own coat

Get it through your head that I don't want your chivalry

Get it through your head: I'm not here for you to fuck me

Times have changed, but you would never know

Not from looking at the people and their places at a show

So raise your voice, join the struggle for equality

My dream for the scene, one word: UNITY!

April 2020 Photo-A-Day Challenge: Around The House Edition

April 28: Delicious

 

This was lunch. May not be pretty but it was delicious. Sometimes I eat cookies and sometimes I eat colorful stuff. These are the meals I often make when I cook for myself and tell everyone else they’re on their own. (They're pretty much always ok with it. 😂)

Went to see Precious at Plymouth Arts Centre. One of the exhibitions was The Pigs of Today are the Hams of Tomorrow which included a reading room with its very own library cards.

Steak and Shake Inc. purchsed this Giant Foods outlot from Malone and Hyde in early 1977 and opened for business shortly thereafter. It's visible in all it's Steak and Shake glory in the assessor's 1981 lo-rez aerial photo. Ez Pawn took over it appears in 1988 and added on that massive addition at some point. Those windows on the left side might (just maybe!) be original to the structure.

Since this photo was taken these plums have sacrificed themselves for the greater good and ended up in a crumble!

It's a BRIGHT morning making my heart glow.

 

JETS TO BRAZIL - "Morning New Disease"

 

morning new disease charcoal in bed

boansoaked anemic listen in horror

to the scraping of flatware and china

and saran wrap to stifle libido

air shaft a chasm their lives flung open

sickness is a time for hating your neighbors

in their milk flats with five kids too many

having day sex because they're all daughters

and you're thinking the same two things

over and over again

I am dreaming of a life and I am dreaming of waking up

there's this anger rising cancer in me standing like a wall between

the waking world I seek and this infected plane of sleep

love come like an axe to all this ice and set me free

there's a black rewarding book

beneath this stiff sheet if you look carefully

noise police white hearse tv air wave methadone

diet contact safe sex antibiotics

for your safety we've taken sharp objects

it's their object to keep you from waking

taste test serenade we dig the grave

lose weight astrologically no money down

for your enjoyment we've excised the dialogue

for your protection we've installed a camera

just keep thinking the same clean thoughts

and keep telling yourself it's allright

I am dreaming of a life

and it's not the life that's mine

in a stolen car I rocket west out past that Jersey line

and the robots in their riot gear glimmer in my rearview mirror

love came like an axe and had her way with this coarse earth

and a small deserving book she was recovered and understood

and I awoke

While on a trip to Sarasota FL to investigate septic systems with an engineer, on the work site was a fallen power-pole with this old ceramic electrical line insulator that used to run to a barn.

My various daily accoutrements. Coffee cup, planner, Steno Pad, & Sketch book. The coffee cup pretty much set the mood for the day.

...the blackberries are starting...

after 20+ hours on the water, we finally arrived to Greece. we transferred to another ferry that brought us to the island of Corfu, where we will be until monday night. today we checked into our hostel, the famous pink palace and then immediately put on our beachwear and walked down to the water. we ate a cheap lunch at the beach bar: real Greek gyros! after finally feeding ourselves, we found a nice spot on the sandy portion of the beach to lay out, nap, take photos, and of course swim in the Ionian Sea. after a nap under the sun, we headed in to get ready for the toga party. we were given pink sheets and our task was to tie it up into a toga without using pins. we actually did a pretty good job making cute togas.

 

note: my memory card went defective halfway through this trip so i borrowed photos from my friend Brit to use for the missing days.

Journaling is by far one of my favorite ways to end the day and achieve a sense of clarity about what I'm thinking and feeling about everything that's happened.

One of our cherry trees is dripping sap from the middle of the trunk. It is the most beautiful amber color.

 

I thought it would be sticky, but it wasn't.
