Fire commune

Personally, the past 2 or 3 weeks have been filled with finals and juggling festivals, so... yeah.

bloody hippies

WHERE! Quick, hide the patchouli and cannabis!

I don't usually burn patchouli. I prefer Nag Champa or Earth Goddess.

Haha I'm thinking of joining the cirque du soleil after college (one of the traveling groups) so thatd be a good way to travel and still spread knowledge and yet be back for supplying and for saying ello frequently enough

I know what you like to burn!

I'm still very interested in this, (along with teaching, cooking, farming and continuing to learn new and interesting things), and I would like to think it is all possible, and can be done at the same time in the same place.

Oh, and lighting things on fire, assorted things, for performance or otherwise. ^_^

It's on the back burner ATM. I'm sure there will be some brainstorming going on at the end of June. Right Dan?

I've been looking at land. It's very dear, unless you are in South America or some other nameless far flung continent.

What'a happening at the end of June?

It's when a lot of us will be in one spot in the real world.

Well, I figured that, I meant, literally, why? Is it just an annual HoP get together, is it a fest of some sort? lol

I don't want to pry if it's private, I was just wondering.

haha I hope I can get to that. Sounds fun. But that would be a good place to brainstorm

I thought you were going to Florida Ascilith.

I am, parents r paying tho. Family vacation.

Be like one of those celebrity fucks and buy an island somewhere, obviously this task wouldn't be given to Dan alone, I think purchasing a small island (probably anywhere from 6 to 10 times the size of any available plots of land at nearly half the cost) is entirely doable by a group of people

Also, after some research I found there are unused military bunkers in mountains, literally the size of entire cities for sale

That would make it a lot easier to actually make money and pay off buying something like that AND when the nukes fall, we can start a new race of progressively minded, artistically and spiritually centered self sufficient people and end human on human trouble

Or maybe I am just excited....lol

It's not on Dan alone. It just takes time and involvement at a greater level. But an island does sound cool.

I like the bunker idea too though It sounds rly cool.

I hear Dan and some other guy are bad mouthing me on Dirtbag's FB.

My dad is actually the one that told me about the bunkers, they are ranging in the millions after repairs, the military doesn't tend to abandon something unless it's practically useless lol but I just thought it was cool because they are literally underground cities

Put it in a bunker and I'm out. I need fresh air and sunlight, inside as well.

I think we might actually have an easier time making this happen in another country, I would count US out totally. Look into places that have a less developed civilization. Somewhere that the barter system is still alive and well, and currency isn't required.

Most times in areas like that, markets and hand made goods are also the norm. We could setup relatively cheap, possibly produce and sell extra crops, and also have some of our more crafty people setting up shop sometimes in the markets. In a large market environment you could really sell anything you wanted too, jewelry, clothing, furniture, sky is the limit.

Nicaragua and El Salvador might be good places to look into.
