The Continuing Works of Vasco Mucci


THE HIKE WITH CLIFF KENSINGTON

Monday, Feb 23, 2009 11:41 AM Cliff Kensington takes to the trails where he demonstrates techniques that he has implemented to survive short and long periods in the wilderness. A renown master of the backwoods, Kensington, who believes in light trail wear even during tick season, claims that nothing is impossible when hiking. "You have to feel free out there. When I first started hiking when I was young I came upon a group of people at Quarry Lake. They were all naked! I wondered what in the world they were doing. But after hiking for years I've come to realize that you can't have excess weight when you're on the trail." Kensington has become a master at various outdoor survival techniques such as trout fishing with his mouth, log lifting, safe fire burning and litter cleanup. He also admits that he uses the terrain to relieve his libido when he feels the urge coming on. "It's something that's a natural part of life. For us males, I've found the gopher hole acts as a temporary haven to relieve ourselves." Kensington demonstrates how he uses a gopher hole to help him stay on the trail rather than return to town for some action.

UNION BREAK (VANCOUVER)

Friday, Feb 20, 2009 12:23 PM Two union employees sit down together during their alloted break time. Their discussion ranges from masturbation, Newfoundland, dirty bathrooms, sex at work, bar talk and coffee. Interesting is that during their discussion of different topics there are no changes in either worker's facial expression although they do find their exchange funny enough for one another. The two enjoy their coffee and break in front of hanging shorts on the wall said to have been worn to ride the big wave where Gidget used to play.

RARE FOOTAGE: SASQUATCH IN CANMORE

Sunday, Jul 13, 2008 1:13 PM A rare film footage of a sasquatch was filmed in Canmore. A group of Canmore residents, to include Vasco Mucci, came upon sasquatch while walking in the Three Sisters area. "We thought it was a bear coming out of the woods and onto the path," Brad Pele said while recalling the event. "Vasco just turned his camera on and started filming, but we made sure to stand still so we didn't draw attention to us or stir fear." To everyone's surprise was the viewing of a specimen that is so rarely seen. "We were stunned," said Jason Baillie. "I just thought that if we had an archeologist with us that it would be more believable in today's world." The sasquatch moved back into the tree line and wasn't seen again.

CANMORE RABBITS (SOUTH CANMORE)

Tuesday, Jul 8, 2008 8:01 PM Some people have become bent out of shape over rabbits claiming South Canmore, but this town's hoppers could care less and have proven capable of adapting to non-pet lives. Gone are the days where rabbits came to Canmore from pet shops. With rabbits stretching their boundaries beyond South Canmore some analysts believe they will soon become educated in business. "It could jeopardize the current structure of the town," shared business analyst Chloe Petunio of Sowhocares Global. "The rabbits are demonstrating a capacity to adapt and compete in every sector, thus we project they will soon become an active part of the business community and community council." Petunio recently presented her findings to a school of fish near the Engine Bridge in Canmore. Various wildlife attended to hear Petunio's presentation. A bear that attended the session noted that it was valuable. "Her point about people making decisions on wildlife was interesting in that people do define where we live, then claim they'll protect that area, then move us out after somebody waves enough cash," the bear remarked. "The reality of the situation is being clouded by unconscious action that is claiming to be conscious." The bear, a distant relative to various Chicago Bears, moved to Canmore in 2003 to look for the family of the Chicago goat that was living with the Cubs' family that migrated west in the early 1900's.

BIRDEN (VANCOUVER)

Thursday, Apr 24, 2008 3:38 PM Vasco Mucci's entry into the Blood, Guts and Gore Festival held in Vancouver, British Columbia. It is a quick excursion in dementia horror, whereas the people can share themselves or end up as a part of a portion that becomes the whole. Blood and guts are the food that fuels he who sees the forms that excite him to the point of his sick mental and physical nutrition. Even in concluding, he does not waste anything he takes in, assuring his saute is used rather than disposed of. Though brief and done under a tight timeline of 24 hours, Birden is swiftly graphic and to the point of a hunger that is way out there beyond the tub.
