    The Meatrix Forum

    June 29th, 2006 Posted by rich No Comments

    For any of you who were active on The Meatrix forum, we apologize profusely for the long absence. We were brought down by someone out there and are trying to safeguard ourselves so it won’t happen again. Unfortunately, it’s taking longer than we thought.
    But we hope to be back up and running soon [...]

    Click below and feast your eyes on some more pics!!
    Kids love The Meatrix, and, of course, The Meatrix II: Revolting. I spy an Eat Well Guide sticker on the young man. He will grow up to be strong…

    Can’t get enough bubble?

    Here are some more pics…
    Your favorite blogger hanging out in the bubble…

    Chris rigged a rather intricate support system for the doorway, which is a shower curtain bolted to a thin piece of wood tied to the tent. I know it may not sound so complex, but if you saw it you’d be impressed. Worked quite [...]

    What’s that? Well, it’s a bubble.

    Yes, the bubble. Imagine a large, amorphous blob of white, thin plastic. Hook it up to an oversized fan. Turn the fan on and watch as the plastic grows and expands into a lopsided marshmallow of sorts. The bubble was our friend at B-roo, and a needy friend at that. One would be surprised at [...]

    Dust!

    June 28th, 2006 Posted by No Comments

    What is the Bonnaroo experience? What defines its essence? The music? The wide spectrum of strange and peculiar folk? Endless supplies of overpriced water, beer, and funnel cakes? Perhaps. But, for me, it was the dust. I’m sorry; I’d like to say it was something else, but that stuff just couldn’t be denied. In [...]

    Arrival at Bonnaroo!

    June 26th, 2006 Posted by No Comments

    We arrived on Wednesday, June 14th, to a city taken over by music and b-roo madness (formerly known as Manchester, TN).

    After checking in with an elaborate wrist band acquisition system, we were up until the wee hours fashioning pigs out of clay for our scale model factory farm that would soon provide b-roo-ers a chance [...]

    More to come?

    “This idea is still very much in the embryonic stage, but we were thinking of possibly setting up a tool on the EWG that would let people plan their sustainable road tri–”
    “Thats a great idea! I love it!”
    The above exchange actually did happen. Several times in fact. At just about every stop, someone, a farmer, [...]

    Hold up a second. Before we move on to Bonnaroo, I think something needs to be acknowledged: The Eat Well Guide road trip–essentially everything between NYC and Bonnaroo–was spectacular. Quite the success if I must say so and we have the video footage, photos, and newly cultivated friendships to prove it. Hopefully the first two [...]

    Maverick to Bonnaroo — Day 3

    June 19th, 2006 Posted by No Comments

    Morning at Maverick Farms means good eats and good eats means scrumptious, homemade biscuits. Scrump. Thank you Leo, Sara, Holly, and company for the relaxation and sweet honey.
    As a side note, I must say that the mountains of North Carolina are quite lovely and would recommend a visit to anyone who enjoys looking at pleasant [...]

    Brightwood to Maverick — Day 2

    June 17th, 2006 Posted by No Comments

    Ahhh, the cabin at Brightwood Vineyard and Farm. What a fine respite. The gentleman slept like a pair of logs in the cabin’s cozy loft cubbyholes. That was some good shuteye–tucked away on the edge of the woods with only the sound of the river to usher in the snooze. There’s no good reason why [...]
