Skipping out on your taxi driver without paying the fare is very un-Santa like. 
It also comes back on the person who was kind enough to call your drunk butt a
cab in the first place.

In the future, please try to suck less.  K?  Thx.

If any santas found an I phone with a monkey case please call 2832592. Think my
wife lost it around nadines or the shanti. Thanks.

Looking for the contact info for the two santa's we gave a ride home
to who were stranded because no cab company wanted to pick you up.

Her picture is here: http://www.riverfronttimes.com/slideshow/view/28952771/16

I might have been a bit foggy, so names are escaping me, but you guys
were cool and live really close to us, so it seems you'd be fun people
to hang out with sometime. :)

This is Tricia, and I was the Toymaker Elf at Santarchy this year. Since I know
that all of you are artists who work in many different kinds of media, I thought
it would be appropriate to post this information here.

As I'm sure many of you are aware, I work for Jackman's Fabrics on Lindbergh.

I have two opportunities to share with everyone!

Opportunity 1: Artistic parts
We repair sewing machines, but sometimes one comes through that can't be
repaired and the customer does not want it back. Most of these are older Singer
models, and it being the end of the year, Jackman's is going to dispose of these
broken machines.
None of them will sew, none are operational. However, a sewing machine by its
very nature is filled with GEARS, COGS, and the like. If you're working on art
projects in the post-modern industrial or steampunk genres and want machine
parts, this is a grand opportunity!
Let me know if you are interested in all or part of one of these machines. They
DO NOT SEW, but some of their mechanical parts still function.

Opportunity 2:
Some of you are either sewing already or aspire to sew. Right now we have good
news and better news for anyone considering acquiring a sewing machine. We carry
machines that handle heavy fabrics like fur and leather and denim (just ask
Cherry/LoliSanta!)
Jackman's Fabrics has three locations: Fairview Heights, Lindbergh between Page
and Olive, and Watson Road at McKenzie Point Plaza. We own two of our buildings,
but the Watson Rd. location is in a strip mall and we lost our lease.
The good news: the Store Closing Sale has already begun and there are machines
(sewing, embroidery, overlock) available for "everything must go" sale!
The Better News: Jackman's Fabrics is still going strong, so you can still get
your lifetime lessons from either of our current locations, OR at any future
locations!
Now is the perfect time to acquire a sewing/embroidery/overlock machine and also
get all the training you need to master its mysteries! As I said, these machines
(Babylock Brand) are sturdy workhorses and the embroidery machines are
remarkably easy to work with. Babylock invented the home serger and have led the
industry ever since. (Babylock Sergers thread themselves now, and don't use
"tension" dials!!!)

If you wish to speak to me about machines or other work-related ideas, feel free
to contact me at work: (314)994-1060.
I'm at the Lindbergh location, usually.

At Rue 13 tonight.  Many Santas are here!

Hey Joshua,

Cheryl and Jim found a black cloak in the back of their car. How on earth it got
there is beyond me.

Shall I pass your email along to them?

Interested in Burning Man?  Come check out this presentation.  It is a really
interesting opportunty to put Burning Man front and center before a large local
creative crowd.  Also, the more burners present in their most Playa-Fabulous the
better the experience for everyone.  Besides
It's free to get in
It's free to drink wine

-See You there,

What is Burning Man?
Saturday, January 23
7:00-10:00 p.m.
Craft Alliance in the Kranzberg Arts Center

Craft Alliance Metals Artist-in-Residence Michael Parrett, a longtime
participant of "Burning Man," will host an evening of film and discussion about
the annual event in our Gallery and Education Center in the Kranzberg Arts
Center.  "Burning Man" takes place in the Black Rock Desert in Nevada each
summer, an event during which thousands of participants gather to create Black
Rock City, dedicated to community, art, self-expression and self-reliance.  They
leave one week later, leaving no trace that the city existed.

On Saturday, January 23, 2010, join us for films, activities and discussion that
focus on the art of "Burning Man" here in Grand Center.  Bring your own seat and
cup, and meet local participants and artists who make Burning Man part of their
lives each year.  At the end of the event, leave no trace-just as if you are a
member of the desert community.

This event is free and open to the public, but contributions are welcome.

If you would like to see some Faeries in the Park, now would be a good time to
look.
The season are changing, and around here that means that the spirits of Spring
and Summer are warring with one another for dominance.

Now is also the time for the Winter Court to finally surrender the Crown to the
Summer Court of the Fae.

Visit your local Victorian Pleasure Garden, pay particular attention to the
north-east corner, and bring your cameras. You may get a glimpse of the Good
Neighbors in their frolicking finery!

And those of you with Faerie Blood singing in your veins, those of you who wish
to herald the coming of spring, don your gay apparel and let your wings float
free. Faeries, Goblins, Elves, Sprites, Pixies, Leprechauns, Satyrs, Angels,
Nymphs, DemiGods, Forest Spirits and all their ilk are invited to join us and
take your side of the Court of the Fae; Are you with Winter, or Summer?


This Saturday, April 17th, at 1pm the Faerie Courts will gather their members
and meet in in Tower Grove Park. Meet at the Old Playground Shelter, where we
will hold Faerie Court and King Valerion of the Winter Fae (Otherwise known as
the Goblin King) will pass the crown of leadership to The Faerie Queen of
Summer.

Having completed the ritual, the faeries have been invited to a birthday
celebration for one of the most recent Changelings. Her name is that of a
beautiful flower, and her mother is a very Curious Cat, Body and Soul.  (If you
can't guess her identity, send me a personal email and I will explain.)
The baby's first birthday party will happen at 1pm at the Old Playground. The
Faeries will come and bestow gifts, blessings, and joy upon the celebration.

For more information, such as what to bring, wear or etc, please contact me
personally.

Share this info. Let your friends know, and their friends, and so on. I would
love for there to be a large Faerie Flash Mob in Tower Grove Park this Saturday!

Also, Gateway Burn can and

skilled and

free materials, transport the object(s), on site set up,
clean up, and
burn safety.  If you have an idea, but
