In no particular order:- Make a giant meatloaf with an ostrich egg in the middle
- Watch cats play on the moon ("Raaar! I'm a tiger and I can jump 10 metres! Mewp!")
- Drive to Tuktoyaktuk (or at least drive to Inuvik and take the boat to Tuk... unless I go in the winter when the ice-road is open)
- Roll a beach-ball down the outside of the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas

Horrible Poetry night - what I envisioned Daddeo
Date: 2003-05-26 05:18 pm (UTC)Everyone has to wear a beret, hold a cigarette , and sport a black turtle neck.
Soul Patches required , for those without them
they will be drawn on at the door. No girls allowed to smoke without cigarette holders
We would need a blue spotlight and a Faux brick wall, a single lone mic It would be Perfect if we could get a chello player
and bongo drums The whole place would have to be dark and smokey (fog generator) No alcohol.. but have everyone WIRED on cafine
The poems would have to be craptacular...
"the city
...calling me
where is my dishsoap ?
...I screamed at the night..."
(hissing and snapping fingers)
