It's a misuse of the word. They're actually selling plum juice, but for some reason... it's easier to call it "prune juice".

We let our woodpecker go, how's your wild bird doing?

Valient is cool-- he's fine enough to be with my doves, who took an instant liking to it. It's getting huge too, and it's feathers are coming out.

I don't have pics, but here's a lady's website about finding her pet pigeon.
Moby, the pigeon. You can see how a baby pigeon looks like... (they're ugly little buggers).

But at the same time,
They're very tender and loving to humans once you've got them tamed.

Well,
Once it's old enough and can fly around on its own, I will let it free.
It should come back if it likes me. Or at least for the food and shelter... Maybe in September on my birthday... I'll let him out for a while, and keep it safe during the winter. And let him out during the Spring again...

Not to mention we have to set up a nice little going away party, where it'll be the last time I'll smoke or drink for a long while.

I feel sorry for you dude, I finish summer school a week from Monday and don't have fall session until the 31st. As for all that other stuff, have fun, I know I wanted to do most of that stuff when I was in high school.

Damnit, I'm being a bad influence again, aren't I?

Anyways, here's the dragon bracelet v2.0 (the first was made out of crappy leather)

This one was hard as hell to dye, so I might keep it.

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Murderous Hedonist. I am the biological brother of the insufferable communist that you know as King Hammurabi. You will happy to know that my brother is now incarcerated in an asylum for the clinically insane. You needn't worry about seeing his populist banter on the BBS for a long time, because his asylum doesn't provide internet access! My brother has allowed me to use his account for the period of his incarceration, which, I assure you, will be a very long time indeed. Let us congratulate my brother on his incarceration. Congratulations, Hammurabi, you insane, hypocritical fool! I applaud your useless efforts at promoting a ridiculous ideology, but it is now time for you to give the good people at Newgrounds a break from your assholery.

My mission here is to promote my own hedonistic self-interests. I will form alliances with anyone who shares the same self-interests that I do, but I will become the bitter enemy of anyone who opposes my hedonistic lifestyle.

I like it. That's a lot like how I'd imagined it would look when you were asking folk what colors you should dye it. I'm sure you've been asked this before . . . but have you ever considered making these for a profit?

I recently went on a quest to figure out who that girl in JOS's sig is (I've seen her on the internet everywhere). I think she might just be the most mysterious redhead on the internet, nobody knows anything about her except that on some site shes called 'Jessica'.

They're just so damn much work, I'd have to charge too much for them. I'm cooking up an underground business plan, but it will involve me spending a lot of time in bars drunk.

Basically, since I have a small studio, I could find some local band and record them a demo. I'll make about 50 copies, a small inventory of bracelets, and get some t-shirts printed up. Then I'll set up a merch booth and (hopefully) nail my demographic and make bank.

All of that would involve me spending more time in clubs and less time sitting on my fat ass making bracelets, though. I'm afraid it would take all the joy out of watching bands, making bracelets, or drinking in bars.

I don't know. I get the feeling I should be making my money in a more Bohemian way. Paper shuffling doesn't suit my temperment. I make 1080 every four weeks, take home. That means I'd have to take home 34 bucks a night, every night of the week. I'll charge 5 bucks for cheezy pyramid brads in sinlge line with snaps, 8 for a double row of pyramid brads, 10 for a double row of diagonal brads, 13 for mixed 1/2 spikes and brads, 15 for 1/2 inch spikes, 17 for mixed 1/2 inch and 1" spikes, and 20+ for fine tooled leather work with or wihout hardware per piece. That's 8 cheezy bracelets a night. That's a lot of product to move in a single night. On the other hand, if I do the whole thing part time as a way to get into clubs for free and make connections, it could work out really well.

I'll probably end up doing it, because I'm tired of sedentary office/home/office/home repetition. I'm way too artsy not to be a mover and shaker in the trendy hipster scene. I mean, I'm up to my ears in "the demographic". but I'm also respectable enough to pull something like this off. I'll have to make an inventory first. I'll probably work on inventory until winter, and then use my ankle length trench to hustle out of. If that works out well, I'll move up to the merchandizing concept. If not.... hell, it was worth a shot.

Fuck yeah man.

If/when you do get a little business going, I'd be more than glad to put one on order. I'd pay for shipping, and would probably want a nice tooled one. I'm not a cheap-ass, and wouldn't mind paying $25-35 for a nifty leather bracelet that would last.

But then, I keep telling myself I'm going to put an order in for one of TBF's hats. I just don't know what I'd want him to put on it.

Hey Funk as fun as your plan sounds I think there might be a better way to make money doing custom leather work. While bracelets are fun you're not exactly targeting the people with the money. Take one of my favorite wedding gifts as an example to really clean up in the leather industry... is it an industry?

I think bracelets are a great start, though. Like, it's small, simple, and leather bracelets make you look bad ass. Later on, when he makes a bit of money, he can move on to other things.
