    New forum: the airing of the grievances

    Nice place. Nasty looking from the curb though. But once you're inside, it's quite decent. And if it's easier to deal with, then it's worth it. How much do we owe the movers?

    New Bukowski exhibition at the Huntington in LA

    Ok, thanks for clearing that up. I'd never heard bookmarker before but figured it was an American thing or maybe a California thing. I guess it was just a nervas thing. No matter you call them, they are still cool.

    Oh, thy starry night! ... Bukowski in the Sky with Diamonds

    OK, thanks for that roni. I will check that out. Sure hope it doesn't turn out he was actually born in Kenya.

    Bukowski working-sign

    That is such a great thing roni. Actually inspirational if taken in a general way -- 'buzz off world, I'm trying to get something done'. I would like to copy it and hang it over my computer.

    Oh, thy starry night! ... Bukowski in the Sky with Diamonds

    There's actually tons of disagreement among astrologers. There are many ways to interpret a horoscope. This is either a sign of healthy debate or reveals the fact that the system is not robust, depending on your opinion of it all. I use to think it was complete nonsense until I looked into...

    Favourite bar local/worldwide?

    Haven't been in this place, but drove by it a few years ago while staying with friends in Pointe Claire. Glad I was there in October before the snow.

    Oh, thy starry night! ... Bukowski in the Sky with Diamonds

    I looked up Buk's data and it turns out he was actually born at 10 A.M. So that changes his horoscope quite a bit. http://www.astro.com/astro-databank/Bukowski%2C_Charles He had the Moon in the 12th house and that is often associated with people who need their down time and like to be alone...

    New Bukowski exhibition at the Huntington in LA

    I didn't know that Americans call it a "bookmarker" but Canadians and Brits call it a "bookmark". You learn something every day. Agree with you Nervas that the metal clip bookmarks are not really much good. Too fussy. Oh and thanks for the review Joan. Hard to imagine the truth of...

    Howdy fellow Bukowski fans

    Almost heartening. I like it when the products being placed isn't mass marketed stuff like Coke or Burger King or whatever. Why not Ham on Rye as product placement? I guess if you have enough money, you can try to put your product anywhere.

    Hello all, nice to join you.

    Welcome BP. This is definitely Buk Central. Is Bukowski's on The Drive still a going concern?

    Nice report, nervas. The bookmarks are a solid piece of work.

    Did I do a good job?

    That's a very neat vignette, zenguru. But do you have regrets now? "There is nothing worse than too late." How true and how common that situation is. Happens all the time to me. I need less thinking and more doing.

    Howdy fellow Bukowski fans

    Been to Madison, too, and got the same vibe, although their eyes seemed a little too wide for my liking. Beautiful place though, and it was February when I went. That is one mother of a dome on the state house though.
