I feel better about myself already.

I think we need to keep a few of these pics for the next fr fundraiser =)

I guess those Sgt. Pepper's duds will never go out of fashion. There will always be an occasion to bring them out.

Old pervs who just want to see young women naked.

ping!

Please FReepmail me if you want on or off my infrequent ‘miscellaneous’ ping list.

I hate hippies, I hate them, I really hate hippies...does that make me mean??? Or is it that I hate falsehood??

English Heritage has reopened the site to the public after it was closed for a number of years.

The park was closed following the visit of one Griswold family from Chicago.

I think they're keeping in tune with the flow of acid.

That's just me...

"We want to keep in tune with nature," he said.

I love it.... The world is a carnival.

I hate hippies, I hate them, I really hate hippies...does that make me mean???

It's perfectly normal and healthy to feel that way.

These "folks" give druids, picts, and the rest of my ancestors a bad name.

BTW I've been known to jump naked through a Beltain fire a few times, and Halloween is a Big Deal with my clan.

Wold love to go to someplace like Maes Howe for the coming of the sun in January.

Just getting in touch with those from my family who went before me.

Great,
The only nekkid man pic we get and he looks like Popeye.

Call me when Brad Pitt shows up ;)

Great Idea!

[Pontiac]

He told BBC Radio 5 Live druids were joined at the 5,000 year-old World Heritage site

The UN is out to license culture. If it part of a cultures heritage it must be controlled by the World Government.

I'll take St Patrick's Day in a pub any day of the week!

[prisoner6]

Hey...don't forget St David's day! Or Up-Hell-Aa, or Burn's Night, or Easter, or Mardi Gras (or Daytona, or Spring Break or The Masters or Indy) for that matter. For me and my clan they are all milestones to be passed on the way out of the Bad of the Year into the Good of the Year.

With the exception of Easter we don't "celebrate" any of them, but WE DO OBSERVE and RECOGNIZE them as part of our family heritage.

I think a lot of it comes from us living without (central)heat in an area that gets it's share of cold and snow.

Helps to pass the time.

I guess Stonehenge is a lot cheaper and easier to get to than the Ring of Brodgar. I've been to both and I think Brodgar is more impressive. If I had to go to either on the soltstice it would be there- you get a lot more daylight to boot. At this time of the year the sky never gets properly dark in Scotland and that far north the effect would be even better.
