dancehall dons rally round!
every spring it seems i go through a dancehall reggae phase. this year it started early and is holding strong. i walk around the house saying gibberish in a jamaican patois, but since i don't know what they're saying, it's just gibberish.
i went and saw lyrics born last night, and i shit you negative, it made the top 10 lives...

whew. saw the proofs for the new issue and things look great, for the most part. a couple of dumb mistakes but nothing that can't be fixed.
and i have some excellent help selling ads, which, if you ever start a magazine, you will quickly find is the worst part of magazining. i think anyways.
also planning our one year magazine anniversary party, we've got...

Wait...did somebody say Vegan Stripper??? 
Hahaha...congrats....I ordered my subscription after the third issue came out and chose to get the back issues as well, which was very cool that I could do that ! So, I guess that the next issue will be my last. Hope you send renewal forms; otherwise I might space out and forget. By the way, I LOVE the magazine! It's unlike any other veg mag out there. I'm so glad that it's available, and I'm definitely hoping that you have success similar to Ryan and Courtney at VeganEssentials. They seem to be doing really well!

Hi. It didn't occur to me until yesterday that you might have asked the circus question because of the animal rights issue. It took so long for me to realize that because I never even think of circus in relation to animals anymore. "New Circus" doesn't contain any animal acts. That's what I do. Ok. So far removed.

Sweet sassy milassy it looks like the arctic tundra there.....I almost feel bad that I bitch about it being cold here and it's almost t-shirt weather ......but it rains mud........so I guess it all evens out. Great Pictues.... 
taxes! fucking hell!
as we sat with the accountant yesterday, between grimaces, she was kind enough to point out that it's fine to "shoebox it" for the first couple of years, then it's time to get your act together. we're right on schedule!
it was very exciting to finally chart our monthly income from the biz and see the growth.
do you think sleeping in...

I need to work out a bulk rate for your stickers. I've giving them out at AR events I've hosted and they go like hotcakes. Usually people are mad I didn't bring enough.
holy crap it's nice out. portland is a cruel mistress. it's gray and rainy out for so long you get used to it and forget spring will come, then, three nice days in a row. you reach for the water repellent jacket on your way out with the dog and realize you don't need it.
then you sit outside for 20 minutes in the sun...

i'm happy nadar is in the race. i hope he gets no votes (it's hard for me to type that), but i'm glad he's in the race cuz he can criticize bush in a way the democrats can't (wouldn't want to alienate all those corporate lobbyists.)
state dept. released their human rights report. bad china! bad russia! bad...

When I graduated Noam Chomsky was getting an honorary degree. However, he was rather unwell and we were forced to listen to a very boring Quebecois anthropologist. Noam sat there looking sad and slightly propped up. I wished he had spoken that day - poor public speaker that he is.

reading your journal brings my time-lapse into focus. every day a week, every week a month, this month a year. But the future also has it's own trusses. It's shape for me is acute.
i hope you are well and have started to walk your dog in the particulate, buttery early light.

You are an industrius man Herb A. Vore'. I give myself a treat if I wake up before noon.

I suppose I got lucky with the surf. It was nice. The only problem was the depth of water at the break. By the time the ride was complete I was in like a foot of water. And I was borrowing someone's board, so I was worried about breakage.
i'm in a good mood, though i have no idea why. i haven't done anything today, i have a headache, i'm way behind on my work...and yet...i'm happy.
i sort of gave myself the day off cuz i taught class yesterday morning, came home, then went to print 14 dozen shirts until 11 o'clock at night. so i was pretty beat. and i'm printing again...

ciao hombre'...i just wanted to let you know personally (actually, i don't know if this is personally since you are in portland and i am in italy...but it's as close as we're getting) that i got my order today, and i am more than satisfied with the products. my lady and i love the shirts, we are planning on wearing them up to rome soon and have pictures taken to send to you for the site. i am also about halfway through issue one of the magazine, and am also very pleased with that. it's been hard for two vegans to live a military life overseas, and i am eagerly anticipating my return to the states. herbivore co. just made these last few months a bit easier.
thanks again...
thanks again...
