Charles Bukowski - American author

im having a wake on the anniversary of the day bukowski died this year at the dive bar i work at

the universe wants me to

Proof?


i only work tuesdays and this year it falls on a tuesday

this is a DAYLOAD,
i start at 11
vodka and sevenup and beer specials since those drinks resonate buskowski-ish in my brain

im urging all of the people i know to take the day off work out of reverence for poetry, love of distilled spirits and the idea that you must take steps to keep your brain your own...
be your own person
take a day off from your job just because you can
celebrate the human spirit by dinking mixed spirits and channeling chianski...

later in the evening we will be doing some readings, maybe for cash prizes, im still trying to find a venue for this with friendly booze pricing

it would be really cool if there was bukowski on tv that day

does anyone have any pull with the cable companies?
cant we get sundance to be all bukowski all afternoon as a tribute?

if not sundance, what other artsy cable station do yo think would do this?

also, what steps done have to take to make this day a national holiday?

ill start a petition that day at both venues
thanks for your help!

(if you want to check out my poetry chops,
google for my nickname and you can find my shit)

if you want to attend or helpin any way please reach me at bakeowski@yahoo.com

these are the first events ive tried to plan and any help would be appreciated!
