Avast Comrade!
Here we are and February is upon us. We hope you've settled into the idea that we have a new President in the U.S.A. and that there is a bunch of work that needs to be done. Keeping a positive attitude is great but we have to step up and make sure we keep the pressure on our City Council, Representatives and Senators, the President and his cabinet starting from the community and working our way up because no matter how hard you yawn at the thought of politics your everyday life is greatly affected by the decisions made there; The Patriot Act for example.
Family is key and family is a BIG word, it is not determined by birth. "Sometimes families change, we have to make our own". Get to know your neighbor, the post office folks, local shop owners, etc. Just saying "Hi", smiling at a random person, letting someone out into traffic on Centre street in J.P. because you know they won't get in otherwise or stepping outside your own boundaries to help someone who's in obvious need. These actions ripple deeply into our fragmented society and increase the chance of unifying us as a people.
Oliver and all lovers of puzzles; This one is for you!

MakeTV is a growing branch of Make Magazine, they decided to branch out by documenting their 'findings' in the form of video and PBS picked it up. The show we were part of was about Jake Von Slatt, a HUMANWINE "Mechanical Saint",donated to us, all of our major appliances, a boatload of cable, piping and a distro box. He mentioned to MakeTV that we had made use of a bunch of his donations and thought that they should come and check us out. They all came over for a show @ Awesomeville and an interview about our house,the bus. Jake documented his experience here.
The show aired in January 2009 on PBS.

Recycled Movement
Last fall we stepped up our conversion on the bus racing against the inevitable looming New England winter. In November we had an important meeting with Al the Ninja and Father Blake. We decided to put the bus up on blocks in N.H. for the winter so we can reconnect in May and complete the final stages of the conversion with clearer heads and warmer weather.
All the plans remain the same, we will be back in May to finish the last little bits of the bus' elec./heating/plumbing system and to complete the transmission overhaul. We are in the planning stage of a June show at The Paradise so get ready for that one it's going to be a grand event, we'll be armed with a new album of material, we're writing like maniacs out here. We miss you Boston!
Please donate to our Recycled Movement if you can by going to HUMANWINE.org and clicking the "Recycled Movement" button.
Facing foreclosure? Don't leave. Squat!
