I just hung my clothesline...ask me anything!

[dolo amber]

I'm sooooooooo stoked! I haven't had a clothesline in years. :bounce:

I have a plot (along w/eyesroll and a couple other people) in a community garden, a portion of which (well, a portion of the harvest) will be dontated to a local food bank. I also have been shopping at the organic/free trade market. And am doing commando organizing for the Milwaukee branch of the National Work-Based Schools initiative.

I feel like such a bloody do-gooder. :7

1. Why do you hate Rachel Ray?

:P :) :hi:

[dolo amber]

5. Let me count the ways...

:P

[bigwillq]

6. What is your fave flavor of

Jolly Rancher? :shrug:

[dolo amber]

21. Cherry!

All other flavors are an abomination unto Bobby Seale. x(

[bigwillq]

23. Do you like Cherry Cola?

:shrug:

[dolo amber]

29. No. Eww.

I *do* like Jones Black Cherry Cola, though. :thumbsup: :9

[bigwillq]

33. What day is garbage day for you?

As in the day the city comes and collects your trash? :shrug:

[dolo amber]

34. Well...

We have a really polite hobo who comes and picks through the trash on a daily basis...he unloads the bins, takes what he can use, then replaces all he removed. Which kinda rocks...he's like a one-man recycling unit. :thumbsup:

Real trash day varies, cos this is Milwaukee and god forbid anything make sense. (What with the parking on either side of the street every other day, the getting tickets for parking 15 ft from the *COMPLETELY UNMARKED* crosswalk, etc...:eyes:)

2. The plot will thicken!!! as stuff grows out there....

Sorry, had to make a bad pun.

How big is the plot and what do you plan to grow?

We had a clothesline until a couple years ago when it died of pollution rot. :(

[dolo amber]

7. The plot is 20x20

Which is really, really big. :D

We plan on growing many of your *garden variety* veggies...tomatoes, beans, corn, green peppers etc.

And for that foul pun... :spank:

[greatauntoftriplets]

15. That is a big plot....

Homegrown tomatoes....mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

[dolo amber]

18. It costs $20 for the entire summer, too

:thumbsup:

[greatauntoftriplets]

25. That's great....

I wish I could find something like that.

Evanston has some, but I don't know about Forest Park...which is nowhere near Evanston.

[Droopy]

3. Do you live in a communal setting?

If so, how did you get into that?

[dolo amber]

8. Hmmm...sorta!

Our good friend here in Milwaukee was in a bit of a state of flux re: her marriage; we offered her a place to stay in exchange for lesse faire nanny services. Which is working beautifully, as she is a teacher and incredibly patient with children (something I lack in spades. :()

[djeseru]

4. *sigh* I miss clotheslines.

I wish I could hang one here. The neighborhood association tells me I can't, damn them. x(

Sounds great about your other projects - best of luck! :thumbsup:

[dolo amber]

12. My sister received a FINE for

having the wrong color mulch from her NA.

I'm having a lot of fun with my projects...thanks! :hi:

9. Communist.

[dolo amber]

10. When the revolution comes, you'll be first against the wall.

[Fenris]

11. No, I'll be the first to do a beer bong

[dolo amber]

14. Lenin looks a bit surly

I always knew he was a mean drunk. x(

[Fenris]

17. I never knew Comrade Josef was so relaxed.

I thought purging millions would make you uptight.:shrug:

[dolo amber]

19. Can YOU think of better stress reliever than expunging your enemies?

:shrug:

[Fenris]

20. I find baths relaxing.

However, I have only a stall shower, so baths now are quite uncomfortable.

[dolo amber]

22. If you dismembered yourself, it'd solve that problem

:patriot:

[Fenris]

24. I have trouble squeezing my ass into the sink.

The cat can do it, why can't I? :cry:

[dolo amber]

28. Meidtate on fitting into the sink

Ommmmm...:smoke:

[Fenris]

30. Maybe I can use crystals to wedge myself in...

:think:

[dolo amber]

31. Lube yourself with hexagonal levitated water

Heh...I said *lube*. :D

[Fenris]

32. Can I substitute atomized water for hexagonal levitated water?

I've been meaning to run to the insane asylum to pick up some of the latter...:D

[OffWithTheirHeads]

13. Clothsline is old school

They are solar dryers now!

[dolo amber]

16. That's all good and well,

but I don't own a solar dryer. I do however, rent trees and cotton rope. :hi: :D

[HEyHEY]

26. Is it an official "Clothesline" brand clothesline? If not, it sucks

[dolo amber]

27. It's a Rush Limbaugh "Liberals Are Stupid Hippies" brand...

Is that bad? :shrug:

[WCGreen]

35. I hang clothes out all the time....

It goes so well in Westlake....

[UrbScotty]

36. Will this affect the sanctity of your marriage? (nt)

[libodem]

[donheld]

38. So, is it well hung?
