    Something Charles was trying to say toward the end of "The Last Straw"

    Oh really? Come on, I need some thinkers here! Of course he may have not believed in that stuff, but he was trying to say something about society and what "They" are doing to it. I wonder who the "They" are he is talking about.

    Something Charles was trying to say toward the end of "The Last Straw"

    I watched The Last Straw a few days ago and He was talking to the audience and mentioned that '"They" are trying to make it hard for people to do anything'. Then he goes on to mention not being able to fix a flat tire and said 'Something's going on'. Does anyone know what he was getting at...

    Born into this

    The voice over had a very "Cold-War" feel to it. It must have been written before the end of the Cold War.

    Can anyone see my posts?

    Since I have joined I have posted now 19 times and not one answer on anything I have posted. I was just wondering if anyone could see my posts. I thought this was a site on Bukowski.

    Las Vegas use to be, but it's so crowded now, too much traffic, Smog, Crime, Psuedo High Rollers, No more deals, Every hotel thinks they are an Empire now, traffic, It use to have some class, but now it's like a movie set.

    I'm trying to read "The road to Los Angeles"..

    But I just can't get into it. I am into the 40th page and it's just not moving me. I have read "Brotherhood of the Grape" and loved it. TRTLA just seems adolescent. I will try to push on though.
