Perhaps it was in a fortune cookie...

OK! A point of agreement! jm IS responsible, as editor, even if he didn't make the changes. The fact that there were 100s of changes made, in the books he edited, DOES beg the question if he or the type-setter/butler did it, but ok, let that lie til its "proved". Any way, the responsibility...

Neil Young: This is a low-res world.

Many thanx! :rolleyes:

If you have netflix you might wanna check out the following show starring Steven Van Zandt: Lilyhammer Sort of "Sopranos goes witness protection in Northern Exposure". Saw the first episode and had quite a few chuckles. But then again I understand all the Norwegian in-jokes. This part of the...

I'm late I'm late For a very important date... Snappy B-day P!

The Boss woman??? ohhh THE boss' woman... Same difference... :rollfool:

So, Cirerita, you think that perhaps, late in life, Buk starting removing references to drink in his poems? OK, why not... He did stop drinking & smoking didn't he? I bet he stopped swearing too. Maybe he even started praying. Whatever - the question is: Would you like to see the posthumous...

Fuck your birthday mjP! :DD

Good find Nymark. But: Are you preposing that the obvious and numerous edits to the posthumous collections be ignored? OK, so JM did a good job when Buk was alive, knowing that Buk was there to correct him. Acknowledged. But the collections put out after Buk's death, well, the edits there are...

I'd put it this way: talent, endurance and hard, diligent work are more important than any chemical influence. There isn't any shortcut.

I exist. I'm here. This text is not computer generated...

Well put Hosh. Well put.

A wise Norwegian author put it this way: -Arne Garborg

There's that rose-symbolism again! :rolleyes: Thanks!

Nothing on the internet actually happened...

I watched an episode and really didn't understand the hype. Later that night, in bed, I found myself chuckling over and over about the women for women shop. Can't put my finger on it, but I love those crazy gals...

Good laughs in this thread. Many thanks. The Popemobile?:D

True enough - its actually an ok video Buk uses an "uncommon" word in the first line: "echelon". In his early period he was still trying to be "literary".

Via The New Yorker Going Home by Leonard Cohen January 23, 2012 I love to speak with Leonard He's a sportsman and a shepherd He's a lazy bastard Living in a suit But he does say what I tell him Even though it isn't welcome He will never have the freedom To refuse He will speak these...

Well put Al! And many thanks to Black S.

Didn't Jon Webb "invent" a famous blurb for one of Buk's books? I vaguely remember something like that. Bet Gybsy learned that trick from him. My guess is Gypsy Lou couldn't resist... Don't blame her!

The songs ok but nothing there to support the story. ;) Listen here
