I thought some of you all might be interested in checking out this show. We have a friend named Charlie that has a studio over at the Candler Smith Warehouses. He teaches sculpture classes and other various art things, but every year he also builds a large commissioned fire sculpture for Burning Man. This Sunday they are having a Fleeble Flobbler Flapjack Fiesta to help raise funds to get the sculpture to the Nevada desert in a couple months. The show is $10 and they will be providing breakfast – pancakes and bacon! You also get to check out some awesome art and browse Charlie’s studio.
In other words, instead of waiting an hour at Thumbs Up (or your other favorite breakfast joint) on Sunday you can stay close to home and have a tasty breakfast while enjoying some art! Here’s the invite if anybody is interested:

Hola Amigos Y Amigas!
Please join us for the Fleeble Flobbler Flapjack Fiesta on Sunday, July 27, from 10am until 3pm! At any price this would be a worthly brunch, but at only $10 per person, it's a deal! What the heck is a Fleeble Flobbler Flapjack Fiesta (FFFF), you ask? Dios Mios! The FFFF is a yummy and fun FUNdraiser for the Fleeble Flobber….. A little background: We have been and continue to be mucho busy building the Fleeble Flobbler, our 2008 art project for Burning Man.
What is a Fleeble Flobbler? Eye yie yie yie!
The Fleeble Flobbler is a 20 ft tall steel vessel serving as a wood burning fire caldron. What makes the Fleeble Flobbler irresistible is that this is no ordinary fire caldron – it's a rotund clown that glows red hot and has eight seats extending from the pivoting basin for riders to bounce around on and make the Fleeble Flobble! You can check out the full description and look at our progress on

The Fleeble Flobbler is our most ambitious project yet and we need your support. As you are no doubt aware, the prices of diesel have leaped far beyond what our wildest imagination was (and, our imagination is pretty wild!) when we dreamed this project up in January.
The Fleeble Flobbler will travel with Charlie in a big truck across the country to the Nevada Desert in August! (

Okay, back to the invite: We are having a good old fashioned Fleeble Flobbler Flapjack Fiesta complete with flapjacks, bacon and other goodies to help raise some funds to get the Fleeble Flobbler to the desert.
So on July 27, from 10am until 3pm, come out and lend your support while smackin' your lips and checkin' out the Fleeble Flobbler in our art studio! At $10, this is cheap eats and awesome entertainment! And, yes, there are t-shirts and stickers for additional donations so you can memorialize this mucho bueno event with Flobble Schwag!
But, you say, you don't live in Atlanta! How can you participate and support the FFFF or simply the FF?
If you live outside of Atlanta but would still like to make a donation to the cause, click the donation button on the Fleeble Flobbler page of

No donation is too small! Your $5 will get us one gallon closer to the playa.
Con Muchos Besos!
