Black Swan
Abord the Yorikke!
Falco is the only one keeping with the spirit here, although I heard that David was also in a rather festive mode.
Good to see you all! Thank you for the pics!

Maybe Yoko Shibata was one of them:In his speech the house owner told a story about a group of Japanese suddenly stopping by and wanting to see the room where Bukowski was born, when he didn't even know yet who Bukowski was ;)
I myself wondered about the typewriter, the mug and the ashtray but as I was alone when I took the pictures, there was no one to ask the question to; so I deduced from the absence of any caption that these were just three objects symbolizing Bukowski put here as pieces of decoration.is that Buk's typewriter I saw? And an unfinished poem still in it?
I looked in the dictionary for the word "bash" and I can tell you this Symposium unfortunately wasn't a big party. The attendants were few, a kind of little circle. I wasn't expecting to find as many people as in a Michael Jackson Symposium but I couldn't help being startled by the scarce number of attendants from Andernach; I thought that more of them would take part to such an event. But as Johannes diplomatically put it, there is no collective proud of living in the place where Bukowski was born. Anyway, we were not numerous but the whole thing was cool!I truly wish I could someday attend a Bukowski bash such as that.
And you too!So I think it is a very good thing that especially you guys, Ambreen and David and Abel, came to visit the town (and hopefully will continue to do so).
Maybe Yoko Shibata was one of them: (I found this vid months ago but didn't know where to put it, so thanks for sharing this anecdote with us :D)
And you too!
You're describing me. Thanks, brah.like a real man between screwing some whore and betting on the horses.
Yoko's too loud, you know how I HATE that; I'd gladly punch her to make her stop shouting like this.Jesus. That's scary. What the hell is she doing there?
The next time, just tell them it took you 7 hours by train to come there from Salzbourg and they'll all stare at you abashed. ;)Sure, but I don't have the sort of "exotic bonus" you guys bring along. The people there look at me and think I am another German, which, as we all know, is completely WRONG ... but what can I do.
Maybe Yoko Shibata was one of them
Topic of my address were the similarities of Bukowski with Nietzsche and Schopenhauer.
Nothing new to you folks here, but most of the attendants didn't know much about it.
roni, is there any way to read this?
