so does everyone else feel the same way, or are we
all feeling a little fragile about our little
bourgeouise beatnik pasts? ;-)

I'm completely in agreement too - I'm just surprised how much he knows about these kind of people living in Glasgow - there are none of them there. I live in Edinburgh where all the Oxford/Cambridge Yah Hooray Henry types come and it's unbelievable. Before coming to University in Edinburgh I didn't know these people existed. It's a case of any excuse not to do a real job, and to have a huge extended "holiday" under the guise of "helping people" (This, at least is the analagous situation that I see to the beat generation thing).
I need a bloody holiday - I haven't had one since a week in Llandudno in 1990.
Cheers,
Keith.
