mike,
no I am not a hot chick, but I am waiting for a post that has SOMETHING to do with this forum. So far there have been 17 posts, most dealing with whatever pops into your head, most of the posts being one word posts.
Have you read Bukowski?
Best,
llib

What you're doing is breaking the only rule the forum has by being an asshole. I hope that clears things up for you.
llib,

Hi Mike,
Yes, you would probably love many of the poems and stores by Bukowski.
On another note, I just found this on the Harpercollins site out of Canada.

They seem to think that his name is Charles J. Bukowski. Sad that his new publisher does not seem to even know his name...

You could excuse that as a typo if his name was commonly spelled out including a middle initial, but obviously it never was. Which makes the "Charles J. Bukowski" on that page really obscene.

And did you happen to see when,
According to Bill's Harpercollins site link,
This particular Charles J Bukowski book went on sale?!
01/01/1900
This Charles J guy, wow, who knew?, we learn more every day
;)

Yeah BS but Quebec also has this "european" mentality
Montreal's largest school board has been ordered to rehire a teacher who had been fired for failing to disclose to the board that he had killed his wife in 1990.
Jean-Alix Miguel had pleaded guilty to the crime and was sentenced to seven years in prison.
In 1998, the Commission scolaire de Montréal hired him to teach electronics to adults at a construction trade school in Montreal's east end.
The board fired him in 2004 when it learned about his criminal record, something he had not told the board about when he was hired.
An arbitrator later ruled that Miguel's dismissal violated Quebec's charter of rights, because his crime did not in any way relate to his work.
The board appealed the arbitrator's ruling to Quebec's Superior Court, but the court ruled in favour of Miguel on Wednesday.
The board has 30 days to appeal that decision.
I'm all for rights but responsibility first.
I think I am going off thread eh?
Je m'excuse

I know, I know. Hey, I grew up in Minnesota. That's southern Canada, for all intents and purposes.

Does Quebec have a European mentality
Well I am French Canadian and okay with my identity. With all due respect Jimmy Snerp, I do not think that it is BS to say that I don't think of myself as being European. It is just that I sense hostility in your observation.
I am here to feel Bukowski's spirit. Peace...

I found Montreal and Quebec to be amazing cities. I only visited once, but have always wanted to go back. Canadian, European, or French. It was very nice...

Thinking of it!
I suppose a few good bottles of French "Pinot Noir" a fresh French baguette and a chunk of "Crottin de Chavignole" would do it...

BS stood for Black Swan not bullshit and the hostitlity was toward the judge who let this happen. This love the villian not the victim mentality.
Je t'adore Quebec.
While the wines mentioned may work give me one of those beers that has the canoe filled with ghosts looking for souls on the label.
I was working in a record store when New Day Rising demo came out. I put it on and said what the fuck is this? It was like buzzsaws to the brain. I was hooked. Unfortunately I only got to see them once before they broke up imploded... you know.
This is a pretty long thread considering it started with one word.

That one took me for a loop. Better have a few of those "Chasse Gallerie" at the end of the day.

Well, imagine going into a tiny blackhole club and hearing them for the first time before they had recorded anything. We all said, "what the fuck is this?" They were different from the other twin cities punk bands for sure, the three of them together had a magic chemistry that none of them ever recreated after they split.
"Hardcore" eventually became a tired parody of itself, but those first few bands - Hüsker Dü, Bad Brains and the like...yeeeeoooowwww!
Turn it up!

Metal Circus Husker Du is a long way from New Day Rising Husker Du. I remember hearing that first album and going, "Holy Shit! That's what I'm talkin' 'bout!" By the time New Day came out, they had evolved substatially. Sadly, I too only got to see them once, very near the bitter end in some theater in L.A. the name of which escapes me. I am still hooked on Bob Mould and all of his various projects.

And Bukowski didn't have to police a forum, what's your point?
You were posting a rapid-fire stream of bullshit, so you got a little time off to reconsider how you want to approach this. You started off on the wrong foot. Now you have another chance. Tabula rasa, as the kids say.
