Yes, when I got that email from Markus I immediately thought of bad things like MLM or even worse - and was just going to ignore it. And now you link to news that this whole thing may be some scheme - or maybe not. But who cares? As you say: 'play the game our way'. I think it's great! And plus: I couldn't ignore it - it came from my good friend Markus - and my good friend Josh Leo before that. I'd probably do any crazy thing they ask for! Hm. I don't know about snakes - they give me the creeps. But Thai? Yes! Big dogs that bring a ton of dirt into the house every day? You bet, wouldn't want to be without it!

Who knew the hair would be so popular!

As for the tagging, it was/is a lot of things. Definitely a fun way to move energy through and among friends and strangers. I was thinking of people I did NOT know to whom I could send a tag...to find out more. But I tend to rely on the energy more then the obvious facts, and there was something squishy about this. For the record Jen, none of the squishy came from you; I was touched by your thoughtfulness.

My point was that we can take a cool idea and do it for ourselves - I'm expanding it on the one hand and not using the official "5things" tags on the other hand. Yes, Beach Walks might miss out on some of the viral marketing, but we also get to play the game our way.

And isn't this so very "Beach Walksian" - an experience that can take on so many different concepts and energies.

Bill: SC is indeed a Scorpio, for which the snake is a totem. How insightful of you! And, this makes you the gazillionth person to suggest a relationship between the animal snake and the other male energies. Congrats!

Love the new graphics at the end! Fun idea for a show, thanks for sharing all the tidbits and the great photos. Reminds me that I have 80's Jersey hair photos of myself

mmmn. I didn't even considered the cliquey idea....i thought it was a cool idea for an interactive game. I really didn't know it had anything to do with marketing.
I guess I should be more careful. i am not too aware of vlogger politics.
oh well. I can be a bit naive sometimes.

I liked seeing the picture of you with red hair. I used to have pink red hair like that in high school!

Thanks so much for the hairstyle history pics. And I agree with you about the "tagging" thing being kind of cliquey. But let me think on it and maybe I'll email you my list if I can up with five even semi-interesting things. And I've also got to think of a good question for you.

Good show.

oh... and my internet connection choked when you mentioned "dry, cool and very muscular"...

were you talking about S.C.?
