    Bukowski-discussion-panel with daughter, friend and leading scholars - video online

    Congratulations! Harper is a great local resource. They have a really good Pre-Nursing RN/LPN program. Glad to see their artistic side now, too.

    What are you drinking?

    I have been spending more on the fruit juice/mixer/seltzer and saving money on the "budget" vodka. It's quite thrifty... though I'm still not rich.....(maybe my Wealth-Thru-Vodka Strategy is overrated?)....hot dog bun......my sister's a nun.......

    Good Documentaries

    Not exactly a documentary but found footage of New York city (Manhattan) in 1911. The sound effects are a modern addition. About eight minutes.

    What Are You Reading?

    For the last year, I've slacked off from reading novels and short stories. A subscription to The New Yorker was to blame for that. That's a publication that hits you with so much good writing every week, it's hard to find time for other reading. But I found time here and there. I re-read...

    The Bukowski Richmond Letters

    Joe Frank has died

    I clicked on this hoping that the 70's musical group of douche-bags with the biggest Elvis "soundalike" front-man ever had lost one of their own. But no - the Grim Reaper took the wrong fucking Joe Frank. And I've known of his rep as a storyteller but never got around to actually checking him...

    What are you listening to? The world really needs to know. #7

    Two songs from the same EP that shows a nice versatility within this Chicago-based band. Sorry but no video of these songs up yet: The Localvores: https://thelocalvores.bandcamp.com/track/sweet-chollie https://thelocalvores.bandcamp.com/track/sunrise

    Cat Person

    I read it and had the exact same reaction. My theory here is that they lowered their standards on purpose because the story's themes of male/female power dynamics, sexual harassment, etc., are too good not to fire up the blogosphere these days and get that title The New Yorker in front of a lot...

    This article is almost a year old so I apologize if someone else beat me to posting it here. From LitHub(dot)com: "The Last Bookbinder On The Lower East Side"
