PLEASE UNDERSTAND… I AM NOT EVEN A LITTLE… COMPLAINING IN ANY WAY, SHAPE, OR FORM… BELOW!!

I, ME, MARY, THE MISTRESS, AND WHAT EVER ELSE I HAVE BEEN CALLED IN THE PAST… LOVE IN EVERY WAY POSSIBLE WITH THE FULL EXTENT OF MY HEART WHAT I DO VOLUNTEERING FOR ALL ARTISTS…

FOR WELL OVER A YEAR… I HAVE GONE ABOVE AND BEYOND WHAT WAS INITIALLY ONLY SUPPOSED TO BE A HOSTING GIG AND COMPLETELY VOLUNTEERED PRODUCING, BOOKING, HOSTING, ORGANIZING, PROMOTING, PACKING UP / HAULING THE EQUIPMENT AND P.A. SYSTEM ALL BY MY LITTLE SELF LEG BRACES AND ALL… TO AND FROM THE EVENT. I HAVE ALSO BEEN THE PRO. PHOTOGRAPHER FOR FREE AS WELL AS EMAILED THE PERFORMERS THEIR PHOTOS IN A TIMELY MANNER, DESIGNED CLOTHING, WEBSITES, ADVERTISING, ETC. (WITH THE INITIAL PAPERWORK HELP OF JORGE LARA SANTIAGO AND NICK MARCO) FOR 3 MONTHS  I BEGGED, HAGGLED, FOUGHT, AND SUCCEEDED IN GETTING US A FUNDED GRANT FROM CIRQUE DU SOLEIL RIGHT DOWN TO THE PENNY… TO BUY OUR OWN P.A. SOUND SYSTEM, EQUIPMENT, AND SUPPLIES, ETC. THEN WENT MYSELF TO GO AND BUY EACH ITEM… THE MARY VOLUNTEER BAND WAGON RIDES ON AND ON… I EVEN PRODUCED, PROMOTED, AND HOSTED THE EVENT FROM A WHEEL CHAIR RIGHT AFTER MY DOUBLE KNEE SURGERY LAST YEAR… YES!! DAMN IT!! THAT IS HOW MUCH I LOVE POETS AND PERFORMING ARTISTS!!! (AGAIN… NO COMPLAINTS I AM PROUD TO HAVE BEEN A SMALL PART OF VEGAS POETRY HISTORY)

THOUGH YOU CAN NOT TELL FROM ADVERTISING EMAILS, PHOTOS, OR MYSPACE PAGES… FOR SOME INDIVIDUALS HAVE THEIR OWN IDEAS ABOUT ME SOLELY BY WHAT THEY SEE ON THE NET, OR HEARD, OR MISUNDERSTOOD, ETC. THEN FORM THEIR OWN OPINIONS… BUT THOSE THAT TRULY KNOW ME OR HAVE MET ME IN PERSON KNOW THAT…  I HAVE NEVER CARED TO PROMOTE MYSELF OR PERFORM ONLY TO HELP OTHER ARTISTS… WHEN I MOVED TO LAS VEGAS… I WANTED TO OPEN MY OWN POETRY VENUE (WWW.SPITLASVEGAS.COM)… I WAS A NEW FACE WITH A PASSION & LOUD MOUTH ON THE MIC / CUTIE WITH A BOOTY POET / HOST THAT WAS BRAND NEW TO THE LAS VEGAS POETRY SCENE... WHO WAS FORTUNATELY ASKED TO HELP LAS VEGAS POETS @ FIRST FRIDAY… SO I GLADLY ACCEPTED THE OFFER… I CAN ONLY PROUDLY SAY… THAT I GOT THINGS DONE AND NEVER STRAYED FROM MY WORD OR PROMISES UNLESS IT WAS OUT OF MY HANDS AND COULD NOT BE AVOIDED… (I LIVED MY NARCISSISTIC HOLLYWOOD LIFE FOR OVER 10yrs IN LOS ANGELES AND THAT WAS OVER AS SOON AS I MOVED TO VEGAS IN THE FALL OF 2005 TO START MY LIFE OVER, AND THEN STARTED A FAMILY IN 2006 TO PRESENT DAY… I HAVE NEVER LOOKED BACK AND I HAVE NO REGRETS)… I ALSO HAVE NEVER ASKED FOR ANYTHING BUT SMALL DONATIONS OR MERCHANDISE SALES OUT OF APPRECIATION FOR ALL INVOLVED IN THE PRODUCTION AND HARD WORK TO CONTINUE OUR POETRY EVENT EVERY MONTH OF SPITLASVEGAS / LASVEGASPOETS (A.K.A… LAS VEGAS POETS @ FIRST FRIDAY). NO MONIES HAVE EVER GONE INTO MY POCKET… ONLY COME OUT OF IT AND THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY ABOUT MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE ;O) (INSERT IRONIC / SILLY / MORONIC / NERVOUS… LAUGH... HERE) PLEASE DON'T START THE HATE MAIL OR COMMENTS YET… PLEASE READ ON… "In Who-ville they say That the Grinch's small heart Grew three sizes that day!"

ALSO WORKING HARD AND ALWAYS STANDING STRONG… (THRU CONTROVERSY, POETRY PICKETERS, THE BATTLING OF THE BANDS TRYING TO DROWN US OUT AND/OR TURF WAR WITH US, JEALOUS EVIL JEWELERS, ETC. ETC. THIS VOLUNTEER'S BAND WAGON RIDES ON AND ON AS WELL… ) OUR LAS VEGAS POETS @ FIRST FRIDAY… DRUM ROLE PLEASE… FOUNDING FATHER NICK MARCO!!  THANK YOU FOR THE HANDLING EVERY MONTH OF THE FIRST FRIDAY COUNSEL PAPER WORK & LOCATION PERMIT TO SECURE OUR FESTIVAL PERFORMANCE SPOT EVERY MONTH AS WELL AS INCREASING THE KNOWLEDGE THAT POETRY LIVES AND BREATHS IN LAS VEGAS WITH THE COLLECTING AND SHARING WITH OTHER VENUES… NEW POET AND FAN EMAILS!!

Photos from Las Vegas Poets @ First Friday 4/4/2008
Category: Art and Photography

Were you at First Friday?

Did you perform at Las Vegas poets @ First Friday Open Mic?

I have photos of you!

I photographed every performer and took over 300 photos!

I just spent over 10 hours today editing every photo and making each one photo perfect!

So… instead of taking on another task of trying to find every person individually then trying to figure out which person they are, etc….

I uploaded all 309 photos to our myspace page www.myspace.com/SpitLasVegas

They are located in the folder…

APRIL 4, 2008 ~ LAS VEGAS POETS @ FIRST FRIDAY
309 Photos

If you save any photos… Please make a donation to www.SpitLasVegas.com ~ We are all volunteers producing this event every month... It's Good Karma and…

It helps us with needed supplies and staying out @ First Friday every month providing a platform for artists of all kinds in Las Vegas to perform and live their dreams as well as showing an appreciation for my photography which I am providing you professional performance photos of yourself and the event on a volunteer basis in an attempt to raise funds for flyers, supplies, promotions, continued production costs, etc.

No donation is too big or too small… any and all is appreciated

SPIT Las Vegas and Las Vegas poets @ First Friday are grateful to all who contribute to this place for creative expression thru poetry, music, and art.

SPIT Las Vegas and Las Vegas poets @ First Friday are looking for poetry sponsors and enthusiasts to help in the quest for a platform for inspiring poets and artists.

Our goal is to eventually produce a venue where featured artists will become paid performers!

Please note: Do not assume that we are getting donations all the time because this is not the case… Last year we raised less than $100 for the entire year volunteering our time producing and promoting a huge 4 hour event every month… We just secured a grant from www.cirquedusoleil.com but that is solely for the big supplies like a new sound system, (so we can stop borrowing the one we have been using) tables, chairs, easel, and wipe board.

We are still in need of continual costs such as generic flyers, mass email list memberships to keep the community that signed up with us informed, gas, travel, markers for board, etc.

Us volunteers need your help… the costs for the last year have come out of our pockets and we can no longer incur the costs for future events

Thank you in advance for your generosity, understanding, and support

Blessings,

Mary L. Carter

HOLY SHIT! MY BEST FRIEND GOT A TATTOO OF ME!!!
Category: Friends

My best friend since 2001 Miss Ivonne just got a tattoo of my day of the dead photo for her Hispanic heritage, she loves Frida Kahlo (www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE-UjfdIGEY) Which was the inspiration for the shoot in tribute to her paintings.... And last but not least... The reason she immortalized the photo in her skin is... I am her best friend and we have talked almost every day since October 2001 in some form of text, phone, or email... so if her getting a tattoo of me on her arm is not being my best friend for the rest of my life ha ha I don’t know what is... I feel like a celebrity now! That is SO RAD!!! I am Verklempt, feel loved, and honored!!!)

Miss Ivonne!!!

Miss Ivonne!!!’s Blog no. 9 Explains the tattoo more eloquently than I... Please read in support of my BFF

PERSONAL BLOG UPDATE: WITHIN THE LAST WEEK... I MIGHT BE DYING AND 3 OF MY FRIENDS HAVE DIED...
Category: Life

Within the last week...

I have found out that I might have been infected with a deadly virus from clinic and in other news... 3 of my friends have died...

Yet I am still smiling?

I must be insane or really optimistic!

Or in denial, or it has not all hit me yet and I might have a nervous break down soon

Will keep you posted on my mental state...

I love it in Vegas and my little family here but I really can’t wait to leave town Friday and get out of Vegas for 10 days and visit my friends in L.A. for the first time in 2 years! I need to get my mind off recent stresses, be a creative artist, shoot photos of my beautiful friends, and roller blade again on the beach almost everyday. The ocean always gives me peace of mind...

So far they have found over 50 more people infected with mostly HEP C and some with HIV

Most of the 40,000 people the clinic might have infected are still waiting to get tested or waiting for their results

I went to see a law firm Wednesday March 11 and filed along with 1500 others at that firm a class action suit against the clinic

This is the largest (40,000 people) personal injury malpractice suit ever in the history of America!

Well... least I made the history books in my lifetime...

Here you can find out more about the Endoscopy center scandal that I unfortunately was a patient at…
