So this is Stemonitis as a baby???!!!??!?!?!
I drove to the store yesterday and on the way home, jumped out really quick to check a spot and saw the very same thing. Damn it, that's on my list, Stemonitis, so I guess I better go back and get some photos/watch it develop!
Dude,listening to your brain is like taking really great uppers w/o all the felonious acts and missing teeth. Seriously.

This is the whole reason I ended up going to college where I did. While applying to University of Delaware I had finished writing my 2 or 3 essays and clicked to go to the next page...
Code:
connection timed out
Was so mad I said f*ck it and rolled with my only other application 
ghosty, did you collect that first Mycena and spore print it by any chance?

I didn't, but I know right where I found those and I'd be happy to scoop up a couple and print them and report back (prob Sun).

ok, obviously too obscure on these...
1. Liars - They Threw Us All In A Trench And Stuck A Monument On Top
2. The Olivia Tremor Control - Singles and Beyond
3. The Detroit Cobras - Love, Life and Leaving
4. Jeffrey Lewis - The Last Time I Did Acid I went Insane
I know at least 1 person (other than me) kinda liked this so I'm doing it again soon. Plus, it makes the CDs feel useful again and they like that.

haha great post. cd's were WAY too obscure man! hilarious anecdote, really fun read. And the gopher tortoise!!! what the fuck is id doing there?! I, sir, am from the 912 (sandy home of the gopher tortoise empire) and have never seen any CLOSE to the piedmont. Sadly, there are less and less of them  Admittedly, my dogs have contributed to the death toll :
-very few people rotate or divide their pine tree farms with long-leaf pine anymore. It's money from outside the region just wanting the fastest return (slash-pine hybrids). Controlled burning and crop variety have vanished because of it, now we have wildfires.
(just a preemptive move) i realize there are wildfires
occurring in swampland's natural cycle.
Save the Gopher Tortoise! Save our water!

have you ever read the book "Ecology of a Cracker Childhood" by Janisse Ray? If not, you should check it out, it's about the gradual decline of the longleaf pine eco system set against her own family history and childhood memories
http://www.amazon.com/Ecology-Cracker-Childhood-World-Home/dp/1571312471
it's really a great read esp. if you're from the region, so you would probably love it...

As you can plainly see in the picture above, in yet another of God's many many holy Practical Jokes against me, this rainbow is pointing directly at my personal, civilian house and, if properly followed, it points directly at a big box of delicious Nutty Bars I just bought at the local supermarket.
Now, I've barely had Nutty Bar 1 yet I'm sure there are already hundreds, if not thousands, of treasure seekers secreted all about the wings of my stately McManor. Let me be clear, treasure hunters, I do not care if you feel obliged to seek out these Nutty Bars as your very own 'end of the rainbow' Nutty Bars. That rainbow was likely misdirected. There could be deity malfeasance at hand and you'd be wise to steer clear of this entire debacle.
Goodbye Wainbow. Sidenote: I bet one thousand dollars I was the only person listening to Geto Boys "We Can't Be Stopped" that also pulled over to take a couple of hasty rainbow pics.
My best find this weekend (which I just had ID'd on MO) is this fine looking inocybe calamistrata, complete with a brilliantly blued base.
        
It didn't bruise blue, it was blue when I pulled it from the creek bank. I knew from the smell that it likely didn't contain much (if any) active compounds. it smelled pretty strongly spermatic amd the stem was very fibrous and sturdy. I wanted to call it an inocybe on MO, but I always second guess my IDs and I wanted someone else more qualified making the call (versus, me, who just thoroughly eyeballed it and smelled it and held it and loved it and petted it and named him George.)
my backyard has turned into a parasola teen hangout. Check out the Parasola Maxx:
   
PARASOLA-CAUST
there is no denying that deliquesi-carnage.
also from my yard, a super swanky slouch-style witch hat psathyrella
   
speaking of slouch style, and this is likely the wrong venue for this, but ladies with the fucking slouch boots, give it a fucking rest already. I'm so glad it's getting hot out again so you can all tuck those fur-lined, wooden heeled, with puffball tassel boots in the back back back back of your closet. I hate the state of the modern woman's boot.
It should have all stopped at the high black leather boot. Everything that has happened since the high black leather boot is superfluous and unnecessary. You're adding a radio to a frying pan at this point.
Baby Dusty was smoking on that wet again this weekend and wasn't much help AGAIN. Lately, all she does is nod out mumbling about Big Pun being the greatest rapper of all time. But that's all ignorant Puerto Rican turtle talk and I'm not hearing it. Big Pun wasn't even the best rapper in Terror Squad and his neck looked like one of those parasitic tumors that grows hair and teeth.
I'm gonna needa amanita ID-er
#1
  
#2
  
 
#3 is amanita flavoconia probs
Stinkhorn city, smelling so so shittay
  
that one looks like a monster from Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers. The other one was much less chk-chk
 
here's another cool psathyrella
  
macrolepiota
    
some purdy red russula
   
plum colored russula
 
more red
  
some auricularia unsuccessfully hiding from me amongst some purple leaves
 
Pluteus cervinus
 
these gills are more crowded than Red Lobster after a public school graduation ceremony
and here's inocybe calamistrata against the white background of the crowded-ass pluteus gills
more pluteus
 
Clitocybe
 
not sure what these guys are... maybe mycena, maybe gymnopus?
 
xylaria cubensis
 
various miscellany
            
more later this week, I need to concentrate on this bowl to pull out this road win for the Grizz. Happy Monday night everybody!

The first two might be Herpothallon rubrocinctum and the last one is an Arcyria species.
Your last picture looks like a Usnea species.

So funny! Dusty is hillarious! Your swanky Psathyrella is a Conocybe, something like Conocybe albipes.
Love it, can't wait for the next update

That Inocybe is very cool! Your first Amanita looks like something in section Amidella.
