Mine came over the weekend, Bill. Thank you! They really are beautiful.

I feel like I first saw it in an older book review, but I bet marina del rey is right and 'Drinking with Bukowski' poularized it recently...

In Notes, in the Cassady column, he writes about Kerouac a little. I think also in the often-quoted political rant he writes about the beats more generally. I always got the idea that Buk didn't much care for Kerouac? From Notes, "Kerouac had set him up for the sucker punch and Neal had bit...

I love the pic of Bukowski with the typewriter. it's like "sexy Buk." He looks so clean...

I completely agree. I love mermaid and it's not because I'm a necrophiliac. It has a kind of Of mice and men quality, to me, or, at least, that is one comparison that comes to mind, not that it's ever very good to compare Buk to other writers... I think Bukowski is almost never...

Oh, of course. Thank you. I think the FBI file is (inherently) ambiguous and was hoping for something concrete about the obscenity charges. I know there is stuff all over the bios and the memoirs, but has anyone ever cross-checked the FBI claims against the actual laws back then? What was the...

Can people request the Post Office files the same way? I don't know how it works...

Has anybody heard of this interview with Buk in Brick (Literary mag/journal) by Lucy Gray from the Summer 2007 issue? The interview is evidently from 1989 or something, but I am not sure if it has been published before. I want instant gratification--does anybody have it? I tried to search the...

False accusations from scumbag lawyers The thing that is bringing me down is that people are sending me the links to the article that is popping up because they know I'm in to Bukowski and one person even asked me, "did you know this about him?" It's a shame and it's bumming me out.

Fancy!

Oh, that is great stuff, thanks. I love: "I guess I might be if that means being something I shouldn't be--say like listening to Mozart all night while drunk."

Sorry--I wouldn't have gotten it from what I wrote either. Click on the link that Roni supplies and when the page (finally) pops up, click on "Wahlkabine" at the bottom of that page click on the link that reads "Hier geht's Zur Abstimmung"--that's when the ballot will pop up in a new window and...

Way too early in the morning here, but I think I figured it out. I clicked on the link, and then clicked on the picture of the ballot, I chose the people, and then was stuck. For all you English speakers (I asked a German Professor): The first box is for your first name, then last name in the...

No, you're not an asshole, but the wit and slightly acerbic charm of the argument definitely help make your point. And I think, I could be wrong, but that is part of why esotouric couldn't really say "good-bye bukowski.net" and had to come back for an attempt at a final word. Also, for what...

i can dig it too--honestly, i hadn't given it much thought, but i think mjp makes an entirely logical and, i have to say, entertaining argument. mjp--are you a lawyer in real life?
