    Hello.
    Is there anybody in there?
    Just nod if you can hear me.
    Is there anyone home?

    Come on, now.
    I hear youre feeling down.
    Well I can ease your pain,
    Get you on your feet again.

    Relax.
    I need some information first.
    Just the basic facts:
    Can you show me where it hurts?

    There is no pain, you are receding.
    A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
    When I was a child I had a fever.
    My hands felt just like two balloons.
    Now I got that feeling once again.
    I cant explain, you would not understand.
    This is not how I am.
    I have become comfortably numb.

    Ok.
    Just a little pinprick. [ping]
    Therell be no more --aaaaaahhhhh!
    But you may feel a little sick.

    Can you stand up?
    I do believe its working. good.
    Thatll keep you going for the show.
    Come on its time to go.

    There is no pain, you are receding.
    A distant ships smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I cant hear what youre sayin.
    When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse,
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone.
    I cannot put my finger on it now.
    The child is grown, the dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb.

      Don't drink from the artesian well! (if you do, you will always return to OlyWA :)

      My favorite Oly activities include:

      Live acoustic music at Traditions Fair Trade
      www.traditionsfairtrade.com/page....html

      Procession of the Species
      (start planning now - this is one of the most beautiful events anywhere)
      www.procession.org/

      Volunteer at the Olympia Food Co-ops
      (these are possibly the best food coops in the world - and if you volunteer 3hrs/week you get 25% off their already non-profit prices.
      These are also great places to meet people - the other volunteers and customers are all cool)
      www.olympiafood.coop/

      Check out the two great local bakeries,
      Blue Heron Bakery - www.blueheronbakery.com/
      San Francisco Street Bakery - www.sfsbakery.com/where_to_buy.html

      Of course, the top social activities in Olympia are potlucks and activism.
      Get to know people and you will get invited to a potluck.
      Or get out of town! You have the Olympics, the Cascades, the San Juans, Mt. Rainier...
      And if you want a bigger city every now and then, you are only an hour from Portland or Seattle.

      I heart Oly

        Oh! and don't forget Olympia's own great brewery - Fish Tale Ales, including three organic brews.
        Their brew pub makes a great emu burger, locally ranched and humanely raised.
        www.fishbrewing.com/fish-tale-ales/

        And the East Side Tavern is a great place to do your laundry - that's right, you can have a beer and wash clothes at the same time. They have an awesome selection of craft brews and offer $2.50 pints on Thursdays.
