Light-up ceremony, Mad Hatter Holiday Festival, December 7th, 2013

Dr.G. took the time to volunteer with the gnomes and folks setting fire to the hillside.

Nearby, residents and dimensional entities watched in anticipation:

All in time for the Mad Hatter Holiday Parade!

The Fire is set forth!

This fire-engine has arrived to join the light show!

Soon, we are joined by the Dragon, and other friendly devices and strange creatures...


The strange sea-worthy Giant octopus, named Cthulu, makes her entrance  
Who dares approach the madness and walk among the outerdimensional denizens?


Great to see the Cat of Many Colors, bringing with it Ozcat Radio in the Mad Hatter Holiday Parade!

6th Humboldt Anarchist BookFair

This is a great event with delicious free food all day, child care...
really good time. And right near the beach! See you there!

The Humboldt Anarchist Bookfair (1611 Peninsula Dr, Manila, CA) on Saturday
December 14th features a full day of workshops on a variety of topics,
guest speakers, and great deals on independent and hard-to-find books and
zines. Bring your kids to play at the Kid’s Corner and enjoy some delicious
local food while meeting people who are working to make our community and
the world a more revolutionary place.

The 6th Humboldt Anarchist Bookfair on Saturday December 14th is Saturday,
10am to 6pm! Here’s a peek of some of the authors who will be speaking at
this awesome event:

*Iain Boal* is author of *West of Eden: Communes and Utopia in Northern
California,” a book that explores the deep historical roots of collective
life on rural communes of Mendocino and Sonoma, as well as communal
households of the Black Panthers in Oakland, and the Native American
occupation of Alcatraz

*James Davis* is an Irish writer and film maker based in California. He is
co-author of “Catastrophism,” a book that explores the politics of
apocalypse on the left and right—and examines why the lens of catastrophe
can distort our understanding of the dynamics at the heart of these
numerous disasters—and fatally impede our ability to transform the world.
His documentary films include Meeting Room, Safety Orange, and Autonomy and
a Song.

*Peter McCoy* is co-founder of Radical
Mycology,
a movement and social philosophy based on accessibly teaching the
importance of *mushrooms* and other *fungi* for *personal, societal, and
ecological **health.*

Radical Mycology is based on the belief that the *lifecycles of fungi and
their interactions in nature serve as powerful learning tools *for how
humans can best relate to each other and steward the world they live in.

"Poetry by the Bay, Vallejo’s Largest Open Mic Event"
2013-11-21 by Ashley Chambers from "The Post" news group [http://postnewsgroup.com/blog/2013/11/21/poetry-bay-vallejos-largest-open-mic-event/]:
As the largest open mic event in Vallejo, Poetry by the Bay has brought together talented poets, lyricists, and artists from all over the Bay Area to share their work.
Started in 2008 by spoken word artist and songwriter Kyrah Ayers, also known as “Lyrical Profet,” this free event brings people into an environment where they can feel comfortable expressing themselves.
It is also one of few open mics in the Vallejo community.
After the local show “Listen and Be Heard” went out of business, Ayers took it upon himself to bring spoken word back to the city.
“We always need something that people can do in order to express themselves in a positive way. Everyone has something to say and poetry is just one of the ways we can actually express it,” said Ayers, owner of Profetic Lyrics which sponsors Poetry by the Bay.
Raised in Vallejo, he started writing at age 11 and has hosted many events including Oakland’s Sunday in the Redwoods and the Walk to End Poverty. Ayers also hosts the monthly spoken word event.
Poetry by the Bay focuses on the important messages expressed through poetry and encourages people to stay informed of what’s going on in their community, Ayers says.
“I’ve heard every topic come up. It’s really community-based and supported. I always appreciate the positive people that come and just want to have a good time,” he says.
Open to all ages and anyone from amateur to professional poets, the spoken word event recently celebrated its fifth anniversary featuring poet and author Dom Jones.
