and real singing! every time i hear a good singer in person it sends shivers over my whole body.

i dont know, maybe it is more concern about the genereal unrest coming up to 2012, i dont believe that the world is going to end but i think alot of idiots will think the world is going to end so they will do whatever the fuck the want becuase they think it wont matter anyway if we are all going to die. and i dont smoke ciggies, i quit on my first day of working in a cafe, knowing if i didnt stop them i never would! been almost 2 years now thank goodness. i dont know what the aliens thing is but they feature in my dreams about once a week. sometimes they are evil ones that spit acid, sometimes just fuckin creepy ones that stare blankly at me

i have been wondering lately about finding some decent classical music as i occasionally hear the most mind blowingly intricate stuff on the radio, but they quite often wont tell you whats what. some stuff really reminds me of trance and decent electronic but i dont really know where to start when it comes to classical. have kinda gotten over electronic music at the mo, after listening to it for so long i find i am craving REAL music with REAL instruments, there is something magical and elegant about classical. would love to hear any suggestions or even anything out of the classical genre

when i was little i used to get cacti from the supermarket as my weekly treat instead of lollies. my parents always fed me 'hippy food' as i used to call it, but now i think that was a lovely alternative to crap!

i have alwasy had very vivd and often very hard to understand dreams, but after cutting MJ out of my diet they have taken on a new ferocity. the one i had had this morning went like this: i was sitting on the steps outside my boyfriends house with my friend while she was having a cigarette, then all of a sudden the sky started to light up with multiple explosions and comets flying everywhere, then the sky literally caught fire. we ran inside to tell our boyfriends and they didnt believe us, said we were just trippin out. then i was instantly at my house and i knew something bad was about to happen. then a giant spaceship covered in weird sybols landed in my driveway and i knew they were coming for me. i didnt want to go with them and ran inside and locked the doors, then knowing my efforts at hiding were going to be useless i began saying my goodbyes to my boyfriend and my mum. then i went and locked myself in the bathroom. the alien had come inside, it was creeping along the hallway on all fours and then it was meowing at the door like my cat does when i go to the bathroom. i asked "is that you bog?" and it replied "i'm not tea bog" in a very cat like voice. i gave up and decided to go with the alien back to its ship. then as soon as i was in the ship it changed into a delivery truck and the alien changed into a gangly delivery boy, i was shocked and confused and asked him what was going on and he said that i had to come with him to the depo to collect a chord for the new laptop my dad had sent me. i would love to hear about anyone else's wacky dreams, and they are an endless source of wonder and confusion for me, i feel that they must mean something, otherwise my subconscious wouldn't have gone to the effort of creating such a scene for me. alot of my dreams involve aliens, often they are trying to kill me and they hunt me down, maybe i am just paranoid, but alot of the time things are just so irrational yet so significant that i just cannot dismiss them as mere mind gibberish.

lol what you should have told me and i would have got my dad to go to the supermarket and buy it haha!

at most rubbish dumps they will have a nick nack shop of stuff thats too good to chuck out, have a look in your phone book

lol quite possibly, but i think we are just the right sort of mental

Woah whats that weird monstrose looking thing in the white pot in the 'family' shot? I would leave the bridgesii pup where he is, as it will look really cool with a big arm growing out the side,. As for your possible grafting stock, remember that the fresher the growth is that you grafting on, the more likely it is to take, older woody cores are much more likely to dry and push your graftee up and off. I would suggest buying some small cacti from a shop and trying a couple of grafts before splashing out on an aztekium! I have never tried horizontal grafting - its seems tricky! but i would say your seedlings are too small at this stage to be grafting onto a trich, try get your hand on some pereskiopsis if possible <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_smile.png good luck, your off to a great start

I would just like to take a moment to celebrate dump shops! i just scored a mountain of awesome old photography books, books about the Amazon rainforest, psychology text books and books about supernatural phenomena, all for $5! Check out your local dump shop and i'm sure you too will find some very nicely priced gems

i dont know why, but i really like it

i have a pachanoi crest with a normal pup coming off the side, if it ever flowers i promise to send the seeds straight to Australia members!

neat bonsais <___base_url___>/uploads/emoticons/default_smile.png what part of nz did you used to live in?

shit i never realised Oz was missing out on the pachanoi crests, we have plenty of them in nz - they all seem to be from cuttings though

awesome!!

hi i have a few cacti seeds i am going to be putting down in the next couple weeks, but thought i should put the word out and see if anyone is keen on a wee swap before the spring sowing begins, the more diversity the better! i have.. sso1 x soo2 sso2 x bridgesii T. scopulicolus x t. pachanoi T. scopulicolus x bridgesii T. spachianus T. cuzcoensis (seed grown) x T. bridgesii v. Psycho0 T. pachanoi (seed grown Ecuadorian) x T. bridgesii v "N1" T. "party mix" - could be anything, bee polinated in a garden with many trich varieties Lw Texansis Ariocarpus Trigonus Turbinacarpus schmiedickeanus

Hahaha. Well I think nice weather is always a contributing factor, nice weather makes happy people and happy people are often horny people.

good start bro! i really like the wee one in the blue pot on the left in the first picture
