may 12 2016
now about dogfest weekend....--sept  xx -xx ( i forget for the moment)

it is $60 for food and shirt---- or ----it is free,- no food no shirt  which  works fine for some   no problem 
the way you get a shirt is to stay "in the spirit of dogfest"-- 
and "in the spirit" includes people who are here--- or  people who send in their spirit sticks-- these spirit sticks are for those who wish they were here.but for one reason or anothere...   they are to design a piece of cardboard? with thier name and  a few pictures it which can then be taped to a paint stirrur stick... there are "on exhibit" saturday   then sunday we have the spirit stick march  whe the people here take a stick or two and walk them right up to the camera for worldwide exhibit-- afteer which we burn them in the fire and the smoke  goes into the spirit world...


linda and tina are managing a bunch of details--- and they are too kind... they sent me some questions
and here are my answers...

SINCE T SHIRT DESIGN AND COLOR HAVEN'T BEEN DECIDED YET -- CAN PEOPLE BEGIN TO MAIL THEIR SPIRIT STICKS NOW AND THEN MAIL THEIR T SHIRT ORDER TO SDP LATER.
 no --- why would they need to wait--  it makes life easier if the stick and order stay together..  late..mail call  orders will get filled last on an as available basis.  sdp has to front the money for the shirts, and we need to know who is buying them.. we are not macy's department store so to minimize the paying for extra shirts- we need a pretty good count. 


CAN PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT ATTENDING DOG FEST OR SENDING A SPIRIT STICK ORDER A DOG FEST T SHIRT? no. why would they not be able to send a spirit stick???? sounds like we have a negative  concept.  ?how can i be different and screw it up.  shirts are for those people who are  "IN THE SPIRIT OF THE THING" i will get a handful of homedepot paint sticks to help out those people who
can get the picture together...but can't actually get and mail a stick.... if we have any left we can deal with that thru mail call letters.

IF A PERSON IS COMING FOR JUST ONE DAY WOULD IT BE $30 A DAY FOR THE COST OF FOOD PER PERSON?  DOES PRICE INCLUDE A T SHIRT?  IF NOT, HOW MUCH FOR FOOD FOR A DAY AND A T SHIRT?  dogfest is $60 - generic food, clambake  and shirt-    or  dogfest can be free---  no food no shirt. ---- they can buy a shirt if we have any left over

MOST PEOPLE PREFER TO PUT THEIR NAME ON THE SPIRIT STICK BUT NOT THEIR CONTACT INFO BECAUSE THE STICKS ARE ON DISPLAY AND ANYONE AT THE FARM WILL SEE THE INFO.  CAN THEY INCLUDE THEIR T SHIRT ORDER SIZE AND MAILING ADDRESS ON A SEPARATE PIECE OF PAPER? 
no-  whoever "they " are ---are asking me to risk many thousands of valuables with a bunch of people i do not know- and "they " are worried about someone getting their address when their address is public information. i have to say.... no address, no shirt at dogfest... you take your chances...if we have any left over you might get one thru mail call,

THE DOG FEST GIFT TO SDP FOR THE ER FUND - WHEN WOULD YOU LIKE TO LET PEOPLE KNOW?  WHO WILL ANNOUNCE IT?  HOW DO YOU WANT IT ANNOUNCED?
now i guess.... the infirmary-- if the building department in ipswich ever comes across with a permit.... will have to have a "waiting room" for people tending sick pups-- or the delivery of new pups... it would be nice if the cp's took the outfitting of that  area as their project..-- table- chairs -couch- tv... things like that...
********************
with regard to the mic at the house... explore guy  chris-- is trying to solve the hum  that some people get... and sent me a new mic.

with great difficulty i did get the wires all changed around and some people say it is all better-- some say the same...  chris has suggested i go back to the old mic..  i said maybe later when i have more help...  between climbing on ladders and crawling under desks...  i'm gonna wait for help...
******
if you want to know something ... ask a camera person... there is one of every information  source out there.
so far i have had 4 people give me advice  on the medical billing reference numbers  for my elevator accident.
*****
 THERE IS A GENERIC CODE FOR ELECTROCUTION - T75.4XXA IS THE CODE THAT SHOULD AND NEEDS TO BE ON YOUR RECORD.  HOPE THIS HELPS.   JODY
