Beet Girl saw Bat Man (1) hanging out in Greenwich Village once back in the 60's. He was with Bruce Wayne, if you know what I mean.
Huh?
Anyway, Beet Girl is not a Book Worm (2)
Go, figure.
Does anybody know where Miss Limpet (3) got her red threads?
Definitely Beet Girl style.
Oh yeah!

Birth of a Reckless Caped Crusader
As she released the beet from her hand, watching it arc through the air into the bed of his pick-up truck, she thought, for the first time, that she hoped there was no artwork or freshly-finished furniture there. She thought of the red stain her beet would leave and the potential damage it might do depending on the torque of her throw and the force of the hit.
Relieved to hear the sound of metal, not wood or something else, she sped off without looking back.
And so Beet Girl was born.
And so Beet Girl remains.
Fighting the patriarchy beet by bloody beautiful sweet beet.
Armed with her sass and her vegetable hand grenades.
She laughs into the wind and tries to remember
not to spit.
Rock on all my Lush Greens, BG
ps=Happy Birthday to my LLSP. 16.

Be Ever On the Look-Out
Beet Girl's getaway vehicles
include, but are not limited to, the following:
-- a small pick-up truck either gold or ahite
--an emerald green, woman's 3-speed Raleigh. Think Miss Almira Gulch (aka Wicked Witch of the West) on her bicycle.*
oh yes, sometimes she takes off on foot.
Whooooosh.
* The bicycle was recognized by nineteenth-century feminists and suffragists as a "freedom machine" for women. American Susan B. Anthony said in a New York World interview on February 2, 1896: "Let me tell you what I think of bicycling. I think it has done more to emancipate women than anything else in the world. It gives women a feeling of freedom and self-reliance. I stand and rejoice every time I see a woman ride by on a wheel...the picture of free, untrammelled womanhood." In the 1890s the bicycle craze led to a movement for so-called rational dress, which helped liberate women from corsets and ankle-length skirts and other restrictive garments, substituting the then-shocking bloomers.

Rule of BEET-iquette # 23
Rule of BEET-iquette #23
When offered a cup of coffee purchased for you by any animal, vegetable or mineral take said coffee, smile, say -- thank you. In addition you could say something to the beet of -- how kind of you to think of me. Now you are free to ask--is it milk or cream?
Upon discovering that said coffee has been sullied with milk, simply nod, take a few sips, maybe it will not be as unpleasant as you believe. Resume conversation.
Upon preparing to part from aforementioned animal, vegetable or mineral say -- i am going to get a cup of coffee for myself for the road. I prefer cream. Would you like the rest of this one? Again this would be an opportune time to say something to the beet of -- it was so nice of you to buy me a coffee. i am a picky coffee drinker!
Voila! You have come to the end of #23.
In Solidarity,
Beet Girl

Keep on Keeping On, We Must. Of Course Don't Get Me Wrong, Naps and Hanging Out Are Fully a Part of Keeping On
Scott Nearing (1883-1983) most definitely cultivated the beets. Literally and.
And I quote:
"It is our opportunity,
our destiny,
and our responsibility
to keep on
living, constructing,
creating.
We must live, not die.
We must not stop.
WE MUST GO ON."
From a broadsheet originally handset and printed at Bread and Puppet Press 1984

Cold Fingers
Hello to 2009 --
Beet Girl may have a crush on a virtual beet.
Stay-Tuned.
But for tonight-- she will don her heaviest cape (red velvet) her warmest badass boots (black leather) and she will hit the streets looking for crimes to avenge or at least to wag her badass finger at. She'll say Shhhhhhh to the bullshit slingers. Kick 'em out the door. Send 'em home to bed. No doubt.
Later xo

Days Are Getting Shorter
Evening all.
Have not fallen in love since we last spoke.
Except for my always crushes on dry leaves hustling across streets.
And except for the way that young guy did a jiggish step kick to the right, then to left as he stood waiting for the light to change on Beacon Street. He was cold.
That's all for now.

End of the Working Week
To Beet or not to Beet?
Definitely to Beet. Obama. Obama. Obama. The young children spontaneously chanted. Obama.
Barack Obama was elected on the 18th anniversary of the death of my dearest, bestest, forever friend, Steven Joseph Spitz. 1/29/60-11/4/91
Oh-bah-ma! O-Ba-Mah! He's got the Beet.
And the people are happy. The people are not so numb today. Are happy. Today.

Beet Girl Falls in Love Thrice
Hello from Beet Girl. I have been here and there.
Montreal for a weekend. And fell in love with the city very quickly. Mais oui oui oui.
A far corner of Western Ma for a weekend where I fell in love with a new way of thinking about dogs. And the trainer wasn't so bad himself. Upset the patriarchy, the fear model of dominance training. Give way to the predator/prey flow. I am still learning. More to come on that.
Et trois: Fell in love with a Hasidic Jew on Wednesday. Matisyahu in concert.
All in all I would say that Beet Girl is alive and she's got the beets. Although they are shriveled and small small small at the bottom of her vegetable drawer drawer drawer.

PS-Beet Girl is still looking for love by the way.
