Asheville HOURS, anyone?

So couple of days ago, I had a meeting with Jenny Bowen of the "Faces of Asheville" project. When she took someone's picture for the project, she also gave them a questionnaire. She's planning a series of community forums based upon the answers to the forum's questions. Evidently the radical vibe still runs strong in Asheville, because I've been asked to help facilitate a couple of them; one on alternative currencies, and one on dual power.
I've has a major interest in alt currencies for over ten years now, ever since finding out about Ithaca HOURS. I've also been involved in a group or two previously who were talking about starting an alt currency. The problem is, no one took the plunge. Well, call me plunger man. It is may intention to get an Asheville HOURS system developed, so that come the forum it already up and running.

Pleasure Saucer: The Comic Strip


I am a fan of web-comics. Unfortunately, while I have the desire, I don't as of yet have the artistic ability, or the time. Or, for that matter, easy access to a scanner. But with bitstrips, evidently I don't need that. We'll see how this works out.

What my image did over christmas vacation


So, I couldn't go to my mother's for Christmas, because I couldn't get off work (stupid work.) By brothers, the other two members of Traxx, did go, and so did I, in spirit anyway. This was filmed at URTV. They played two shows on the way from Asheville, NC to Honesdale, PA, with this projected behind them as they played. There is footage from one of the shows, which I will post soon. This is very weird.
