youve just enjoyed my successive blown tries to send messages from the jeddito & hopiland claves & likewise my latest vortex nonvisit to the sedona anodes
so today i am reporting a new total of 4 muffs in a row
or yikes perhaps even 10 in a row if you will allow me all 7 cities of cibola for missing only 1
as i skulk away from my first last & best hope of any cibola at all
namely cibola az
indeed having never come within 30 miles of it
now of course anyone with a california drivers license still intact would have just driven over the bridges from ehrenberg to blythe & then from blythe to cibola
on paved roads all the way per delorme
but since i am being a civilly disobedient conscientious nonparticipant in my no longer recent & already highly aggravated seatbelt arrests in california
my connecticut driving privilege has actually been terminated for want of several hundreds of dollars now in the golden state
have you ever heard of such a thing
terminated by caleefornia
or i should say i have termeenated california as a place i would like to drive in just now
& as a result i condemned myself to 35 miles of washboard & hardscrabble on the arizona side of the colorado river
but very sensibly & very soon pardoned & completely exonerated myself of it
hence still no cities of cibola are being reported at this time
& as i continued on my merry way anyway toward my next tries
namely yuma & advanced sunbathing & maybe even another nip at mxn aka azbcca
since i have long desired to just torch the tall dense dry reeds there & expose the elusive reclusive tripoint position at midstream to broad daylight & easy visibility & access
& i dont think lighting a fire in the desert is a crime yet
but
about 50 miles south of quartzsite i spotted on the horizon the familiar & telltale form of a border patrol rear guard outpost of just the sort i inadvertently fell behind at las cruces exactly a year ago with exactly the same quantity of killer weed on board
& tho this outpost was deserted
& possibly even defunct like the one in truth or consequences nm is said to be
i immediately turned about face & extended my territorial termination to all points south as well
& moreover found myself completely surrounded at that point besides by the yuma proving ground artillery & bombing ranges
so i could do nothing but retreat toward quartzsite & points either north or east only thank you
&
being indisposed to return north to the cold i had just so comfortably skirted
i am in fact heading east now
which seems appropriate enough on a west to east transcontinental journey
& am also putting a hold on any more new pointing or other tries for the balance of 2004
just to savor a delicious full month of this record setting 4 or 7 or 10 blown tries in a row or however many it really is
& this will also give someone other than myself a chance to make the final try or tries of this years try pointing season
i did however indulge a palindromic fantasy in salome az this morning
a desert junction that bills itself simply as
where she danced
& boasts a church of st john the baptist too
& even has an official looking hysterical marker identifying dick wick & his fake laughing gas as partly responsible for the great fame of the place
so at this point i am guessing salome was the name of a real dance hall girl
& john the baptist a subsequent frontier joke
but anyway
as you may already have guessed
i am of course there looking for any sign of
or reason to create
some womens organization or team or really any girls ensemble of any sort at all called the
salome femolas
seems like such a natural
whatever the historic circumstances may have been
& was also wanting to post from so felicitously named a hamlet in the middle of nowhere
so when i asked nicki the barmaid
well more like a fertility goddess
for the internet she sent me over to barbara the innkeeper
a similarly large & feminine type
so there i had already bagged my legal minimum 2 femolas
no matter what happened next
but barbaras internet connection proved to be down
& she told me the girls sports teams at salome high are called only the frogs & the bobcats
& since i couldnt bring myself to pry further
or reveal more of my intent for its sheer silliness
i simply made good my escape at that point
& that is indeed all she wrote
my new name still remains to be unveiled locally
& nicki & barbara also remain for now the worlds only salome femolas
