I am sick of rain! for the past 60+ days
nothing but.. hey those frogs are pretty bacchic themselves,
i love the pics with the giant females clustered with hundreds
of tiny males..

at any rate, i think i got "orgy" from the wine skin association
with our grape-hair gods.. it was a slam pit of sorts but quite a bit
different from the vortex swirls like you would see at a black flag
or JFK show, or the 90's variant the "mosh pit" and nothing like
the new wave "pogoing" you would see at devo or b-52's..
some groups were interlinked and waving like grass to the waves
of sound, others were enacting gesturalities on the fringes..
My wife and I were there handing out cards for our home-made Djellabas,
but they were always too expensive, and really too odd for most americans
no matter how eclectic.. we sold a few over the years.. and always
got looks with them.. now, we'd probably get put in jail for wearing a
djellabah!
