I’m with a woman and a man, and they want to get the juice and meat from coconuts and are wondering what the best way to do that is. I have this machine that looks like a rice steamer, but the lid extends halfway down the height of the object, and it’s a coconut cutter. You simply place the coconut inside. I demonstrate with a large green coconut. I place it in the cutter, close the lid, wait a second, then open the lid. Inside is half a coconut with all the milk intact, just sitting there. The two are amazed by the efficiency of the device.
I’m at a hootenanny after sun dance. There’s a guy there playing a kids plastic four string guitar that’s just ripping on it. I’m not feeling humiliated tho. I feel really happy for him that he’s so good. Someone says that he wants to be a medium and channel a dead rock star. I mention Jimi, and people are like that would be cool. But then I realize that he’d probably be on acid and hard to communicate with. I suggest Elvis and people are pretty enthused by that.
