443: Cal--Tacky Engagement Party (Part 2) @ CherieSpotting     May 18 2010 - 05:07 PST cherie writes: Now how can we be sure that we were at a trailer-trash party? You might be at Cherie & Greg’s Engagement Party if: the kiddie pool is filled with beer, the coolers are Styrofoam, the furniture is inflatable (or held together with duct tape), the cuisine is hot-links, the teeth are bad, the hair is big, the tattoos are removable, the fashion is animal-print, the eyelashes are fake and the art is compliments of NASCAR. Don’t forget Jerry Springer on the big screen! Call them folks what you like: white trash, trailer trash or red neck…I call them friends and family. Here’s another batch of trashy photos.

439--Nevada: It's the People (Burning Man Evolution 2009) @ CherieSpotting     Sep 25 2009 - 12:03 PST Brian, Karem, Cherie, Greg, Jessa and Andy throw on a dash of pink and head over to the Pink Mammoth for the afternoon dance party. cherie writes: What is "playa-wear"? As far as fashion is concerned, anything, everything and nothing are all good choices in the Black Rock Desert. People never cease to surprise me at Burning Man. It's not what they wear that is shocking--it's how much they give. You never know what the day will bring when you're in Black Rock City. Whether it is dancing at the Pink Mammoth, watching a trapeze show, enjoying the Pop Corn Palace, watching dogs play poker, or playing mini-golf with Tom Cruise...anything can happen. Sometimes the day is just plain silly, like when you find yourself on a balance beam whacking your friend with a giant drum stick. Other times the day is serious, like when you stumble through the desert and find thousands of combat boots that represent soldiers that were recently killed. One thing is certain—Black Rock City is full of life, love, acceptance, and wonder. And in the end, Burning Man is all about the people. (Greg says it is also about the laser beams.) more photos... read comments (0) | write comment| views: 1812       printer-friendly version

438--California: Mom's Pink Party for Breast Cancer Awareness @ Site News     Sep 22 2009 - 03:15 PST Michelle, Tonya, Bev (Mom) and Cherie. We hosted a "pink party" to gather our friends and family to help our Mom fight breast cancer. cherie writes: A month ago my mom felt like she was healthier than ever. At 62 years old, she was walking 5-7 miles a day. After losing fifty pounds and keeping it off, my mom was enjoying her retirement in the desert with her husband (32 years) Eddy. Last month my mom got her annual check up and the annual mammogram showed something suspicious. After countless tests, my mom has been diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer with spine and liver metastasis. More about Beverly Myint. My sisters and I hosted a “Pink Party” for my mom this weekend, where we gathered friends and family to show our love and support. We wore pink, ate pink and dyed pink stripes in our hair. Even though my sister Michelle was sick—she spent 8 hours dying people’s hair. We were so grateful for all the love, hope and support we have received. My mom starts weekly chemo treatments next week. Our family and friends will support and love her every step of this battle against breast cancer. more photos... read comments (0) | write comment| views: 1212       printer-friendly version

437: Nevada: Playa Art at Burning Man 2009 @ CherieSpotting     Sep 08 2009 - 01:16 PST cherie writes: It’s time to evolve again and prepare for the type of conversations and stories that only happen in Nevada’s Black Rock Desert. A typical afternoon desert bike ride goes something like this: I was riding my bike next to a giant birthday cake when a guy driving a shark asked me if I wanted a margarita. (Of course the shark-car was equipped with a blender…aren’t they all?) I declined the alcohol because I was about to climb a metal butterfly and then slide down a massive grass-slide. “Did you see the dinosaur made of buckets?” the shark-car-operator asked before he drove into the dust. “Not yet, I think I’m going to stay here for a while and see if the rocket blasts off.” Only at Burning Man do rockets mix with butterflies while sharks and birthday cakes drive by dinosaurs. more photos... read comments (0) | write comment| views: 2500       printer-friendly version
