There's a pink diamond of the heart?

Larry and I love our new town. A little village center, an ice cream store where kids hang out, and two indie coffee houses! But while Director Frank Capra may very well have based his Bedford Falls on Sierra Madre, he left out the Topanga part of this place.

Larry used to live in a cabin up one of our canyons, and he said it's a lot like Big Sur: hippies, VW buses, lookouts to spot the fuzz so everyone can put out their peace pipes. We saw some of the Big Sur element at the Wistaria festival today. But Friday while in the indie coffee house, I picked up a free newspaper that was sort of like Whole Life Times. Or High Times. Or a Whole Lotta High Life Times. I had to cut out this ad.


















You too can enter the Sanctuary of the Pink Diamond of the Heart. You can also build the new Sacred Geometric Personal Energy fields.
But I'm guessing it may involve a whole lot of peace piping.

    Is the sanctuary of the pink diamond anything like the Pink Moment out at Ojai? We went out there the last time we visited friends in L.A. and we were sorely disappointed with the pink moment. it was neither pink, nor a moment.

    in other news, i received my copy of Angry Convos last week and consumed it this weekend like a campfire consuming a neglected marshmallow. i'll probably review it tomorrow on my blog.

    oh, and HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    I had a friend who lived in Sierra Madre canyon. One of her neighbors was a friendly fellow with a lustrous long mane of hair. His roommate was a turtle named Groovy. Groovy used to escape and go for walks down the road. Which then caused a days-long search for Groovy.
    No doubt about the peace pipe making the rounds at Groovy's house...

    I'm sorry, any time I see the triangle prism thing that he is holding I can't help but to think of Zelda and Link Nintendo games....
