hi, I just wanted to say hi and say that I appreciated your comment about the labs on the 'neighbor' blog post. Lately, I've been reading a lot about Oppenheimer--and the other night watched the documentary, The Day After Trinity. It shocks me that a half-century ago these physicists realized they had created something dangerous and terrible--and that the talk today is so incredibly irrational, and has everything to do with billions in boondoggles, rather than environmental safety and basic human rights and kindness. Anyway, hi.

Hey there,

The name came pretty randomly. I think I was just sitting on the couch one day thinking about crafting or something, and it hit me how strange glue was. Particularly hoof glue (wiki it...super strange process). I don't condone making horses into glue, but if they're already being killed, it seems that making use of all of the horse is a sound idea.

It was sort of a twisted joke, but it works on a personal level too, because I'm a big fan of making collages, and "things" in general.

Sorry, that was probably a more extensive answer than you were looking for.

How long have you been in Albuquerque? I see you make furniture--glue, nails, or both?

Sincerely,
Monet

Thanks for the comment, and the moral support Uncle Jess. This is actually the 1st house that I've owned (or lived in) where there isn't a water shut off near the house! Crazy... but I think you may be right as to the reasoning. Thanks again.
Be well!

thanks for joining the Abq Progressives group. Now I can stop worrying that no one will join.

Welcome Uncle Jess! You know, your profile is so soothing. Thanks for sharing.

Here's some info I've been leaving for people to help describe how the new site works.
