September again .. nothing new, finally a new bike, titanium Marinoni, I tell my friends its like sex but faster, so I am back to biking weekly with the Velocity club, time trial mondays, and 50k teusday and thursday, still staining cabinets for Neil and my brotherinlaw plus some construction for Greg and Les, not many hours left over for Stan. Valentines approaches - out of cast, working pt with broinlaw, still in Langley, have taken over the garage, enjoying nhl 08 on the ps3, watching lots of films, hating the writers strike, 'where's my heroes!!!!!', addict killed himself with an uzi in a crackhouse across the street, Have not updated this baby in ages. Was working up in whistler and pemberton for a couple yrs, one summer farming at north arm, then the winter and summer doing construction labour for nadeau and my friend Shane. Lots of cool ppl up in pembie had a pretty good time. The highlight was having this girl emma over cuase she looks like Kate Hudson but she was too wasted to shag and never called me back, shitty, cause she is way hot. The best party was the barn dance afterparty at Micheal mcChuck [sp?] cause the place is so cool, a little cottage with a hobbit sauna built over a little lake so you can swim in and out!! But the main event was seeing Tara naked and OH MY GOD !!!!!! She is so hot, super perky breasts and sweet butt, and I found out another friend is a fetish girl! but maybe a little late, cause I am not in pembie anymore,[but I am promised a good flogging BIG SMILES] landlord moved in nov, so with no other rents in whis, came to langley for few months to try and save money cuase I got burned by wcb [workers compensation board]and had both my mtn and roadie stolen in pembie, and the cops there were pretty useless about it, no diss, but yeah, they had a lead they could have checked out and never did, told them there was someone in the bldg but they did not care and another bike got trashed, a beater that I had found and gone unclaimed too small for me but was going to give it away to someone who could use it before it got destroyed, so WARNING, be real careful with your bike in pemberton or whistler especially around the wildwood restaurant.

Awake joyous alive in love I go swimming in the cool autumn ocean eat cookies and sip some some homemade wine. The fireplace crickles and crackles a crispy cozy house. All so happy even in the rain. Play some ping pong eat donuts. Tomorrow remember the sorrows of the past, be vigilant of swords still unsheathed, be merry with those you love, take time to kiss the earth that gives life, know the spirit and atoms of the dead are alive in the colourful beauty around us as we Remember [2003 11-11].

Bonjour. Bienvenue chez Kristaps. Welcome to my home on the web. Labdien. Sersnigi sveiki. Canada is a nation of French and English speakers; therefore I will make an effort to use both on this page. My father was Latvian. Although I did not learn the language growing up I am trying to do so now. I will also include gaelic as I explore my Irish heritage as well. "Failte", means 'hello','slainte' to your health, and "conas ta tu" is 'how are you'.

If you are surfing in from my resume. Looking for anything labour etc locally or Whistler but if there is f/t vegan work anywhere in the world I would consider it; ie cafes, fruit picking, vineyards, breweries. Feel free to forward my resume to others whom are hiring. Thank you.

On this page a few notes on local poets, a brief bio, and a short Latvian letter. The photos; a poetry reading in '95, with Angelika and Linda on Mt Truax '92 , and outside the Ottawa Hostel in '94. Enjoy your visit and please sign the guestbook.

Disclaimer - as with most everything on earth some poetry is scripted and may not express my true intent but are technically brilliant and worth a laugh. I will add commentary and notes when I update and make a pdf .. A Robert Frost poem gave me the idea for poem as narrator for the Stud series, and the final poem is an Off to Gary Snyder. ty Kristaps.
I encourage everyone to support local arts. Some great Vancouver poets; Neil Eustache, Justin Mcgrhail, Ducktape Platypus, Susan Buffam, and Sheri D. Wilson. Neil has this piece about native misery and Inuit teen suicides "gasoline, gasoline, give me all your gasoline". Has a cd with his band Red Sugar. Vancouver Coop radio may have some good archived tapes. Here is an excerpt from a comedic Susan Buffam piece; please don't read if you are easily offended [14+]: "Sharks are predators, sharks have a keen sense of smell, men are predators, men have a keen sense of smell, menstruating women shouldn't go out at night in shark infested waters". See and hear some locals at edgewise cafe & telepoetics. Also jazz poet Ralph has many links and reviews at bongobeat. Used to have my own series Whips and Chains at the Whip Gallery in Vancouver [bastards said they would store some books for me but gave away my library to charity aargh and I am so poor I can't even get a library card fuck shit damn]. I haven't been out to readings for awhile but the main venue seems to be Bukowskis Bistro on Commercial drive. Also blacksheepbooks has had a long running series. [Blacksheep is now closed but I left the link hopin git might get revived as the location has had a bookstore since I was a kid]. Went to one Thundering word last yr and it ws fun. Very trendy and packed at cAfe Montmarte on Main. But not much for vegan menu nor bottomless coffee. I think maybe 350 for a doppio so go with wine. Oh yeah they had no soymilk. Thats what dissed me. Arrgh. thunderingwordheard .

Langston Hughes - Just becuase I loves you that's the reason why, my life is full of color like the wings of a butterfly .. just becuase I loves you that's the reason why my heart is like a fluttering aspen leaf when you walk by.

Please tell me of any gigs that you know of. Love to hear work from around the world. Looking for poets and backup musicians for group pieces/chorals. Thanks Kristaps

Hi. I'm 32, a writer and labourer into travel and sports. I have 3 married sisters; Marita, Dzidra , and Alvine. I have a friend whom is paraplegic. For info try newmobility.com . Have cycle toured through France and the UK. Always looking for adventure; if you have a plan let me know. If you know anything about Ned Gillette [murdered on Everest yrs ago, lift a glass to a good man] and the Sea Tomato and distance rowing let me know. Would like to do an all vegan Big Row. Maybe a marathon or dragon boat team to promote veganism. I am trying to do a genealogy and learn about my Latvian and Irish heritage. Would like to visit Riga. Call me if you know of any jobs or cheap rents there, or can tutor me in Latvian. I want to start a vegan job bank, tell me if you know of any, if someone wants to host veganjobs.com that would be great,otherwise when I have the time and if I think there would be enough traffic to justify the cost I will do it. Will help anyone find work. Also I would like to do a bmovie or webcast of a 2001 tribute. The plot is some kids get together and decide to make it to Mars for 2001, dialogue about feasible starfleets,and fundraising to make it happen. If you visit the link to my sister Marita at Tyax and decide to go there let me know becuase that would be advertising and Gus would owe the wonderful folk at Tripod some beer. Love to dance, techno, swing, ballroom. Call me and we can jive. All for now, love Kristaps

Yes, I realize someone has registered teamvegan, I've had it posted for a long time, it may be possible that someone else came up with the same idea, hmmm, may have to change the name. Another idea is to have vegan pizza delivery. I have lots more.

Why no honey? I am not an expert and will research more, but off the top, industrial beekeeping [and monocropping] has lead to the loss of many bee species. I think most domestic bees in the US are one species. The loss of biodiversity increases the spread of disease. I have heard that all the honey and other products are taken and the hive is fed a low nutrient sugar/water substitute lowering insect health and immunity; is this true, I will find out. There is research locally at UBC into the mite problem. Are there some species that have natural immunity? I encourage anyone who can, to keep a backyard hive of an endagered species. Thank you

ET brain tubes etc....anyhoo yeah, you can google kristaps and alien and comments or tpb etc this gives you a synposis of my worldview as I am too lazy and brain damaged to write a full debriefing here, just be less lazy and call me, for basics, if planetary scripts and human chess, sound familiar then shout out, see my rant where I describe how I knew about the artificial earthquake in seattle and was able to predict that the technology would be used near thailand or indonesia, this a couple years in advance, security services were made aware of this possibilty here I will just paste a rant composite to the blog ty K
