Sinister: it is by will alone that I set my mind in motion...

not relating to will.  or rachel.  or any of the other
ones.

I think I could relate to will.  even though I won't.

but you're all welcome to read.  here.

WELCOME.


less and less.  okay.



yes.  someone mentioned steely dan.  someone noticed a
few of theirs in with other ones I have.  and
remarked.  so.  yes.  other people like steely dan.

I was surprised [I thought 'shocked' at first, but no
longer.] to discover two [and then two.] of
my...contemporaries [contemporary in only some
aspects.  I guess.] had never heard of jack kerouac. 
never.  who hasn't heard of jack kerouac?  gosh.  I've
said this a few times recently.  everyone's at least
HEARD of him.  well.  no.  they haven't.  obviously.

one had heard of 'naked lunch'.  but not william
burroughs.  I think hearing is the first step.  I
doubt they'll have heard of steely dan.  in.  any way.
 yeah.

oh.  FRUITLOOP - the one that isn't to lose that
number is actually 'rikki'.  not 'ricky'.

easy mistake to make.  I often mis-spell 'ricki lake'.
 often.  really.  she's younger than you think, you
know.

rikki fulton isn't dead.

right?



I like 'I'm your man'.



well.  I watched 'dune' yesterday.  some people really
don't like that film.  I do.  I think it's a lot of
fun.  good fun.  and the theme is nice.  tune.  well. 
the theme, yeah.
I have a television now.  but no signal receiving
device.  so.  I watch films.  I have a video too.

I watched 'dead man' last night.  that was fun. 
people had been talking about william blake recently. 
and reading too.  I bet.  yeah: I like that film. 
'specially the bit with iggy pop and billy bob
thornton and the other guy.  and crispin glover on the
train.  is fun.  you know.  he's not older than
michael j. fox.  oh.  and neil young's twangy guitars.
 lovely.  he's older than michael j. fox.  of course. 
he co-directed[?] 'human highway' with dean stockwell.
 I like him.  despite.  some.  he's done the david
lynch ones.  and wim wenders.  and.  'anchors aweigh'.
 yeah: I like him.

some people might think I have a lot of or too much
fun.  well.

I told kirsten marie kenyon that we'll watch 'the
straight story'.  when she visits.  I don't doubt that
would be fun.  and I decided that the best place to
sit.  to watch.  is on st. vincent street.  sometimes.
 although there are other good ones too.


I lost it?

SHOULD A BODY MEET A BODY COMING THROUGH THE RYE
Ian Nicolson is right: I don't remind him of holden
caulfield.  and I don't remind me of him either. 
burns?  I don't think I remind either of us of edwyn
collins.  even though that was All That Ever Mattered.


STOP STARTIN' AND START DOUBLE-STOPPIN'
did anyone make a convincing distinction between
violins and fiddles?  there's none!  none distinction!
 right?  if yer a violinist.  ye have a violin.  if
yer a fiddler.  well.  that could be distinct enough. 
but not so punchy.

viola...violist.  I believe.




the one thing I can always say about her is 'she
looked very alive'.  and could make me feel otherwise.



___________________________________________________
hey: yes.  THE NATIONAL POP LEAGUE.  on the friday. 
the ninth of november.  it sounds really good.  I
won't dance.  but I might want to.

oh: yes.  jonathan richman at king tut's wah-wah hut. 
on thursday.  I hope I can fit it in.  I need to
manage my time better.  or.  just do some work now and
again.  that's right: now and again.  that doesn't not
make sense.


oh my.  they're all around me!  one asks 'wasn't there
a jack kerouac street somewhere?'  I reply 'very
probably: he's a very well-known person'.  another is
laughing at another because he's never heard of steve
buscemi.  I laugh at the laughing and one is offended
and gives me: 'pop culture!'.  I laugh more.  and
more.  and return to him: 'beat generation?'.  he
looks hurt.  and confused.  not too hurt.

and then he laughs when I inquire: 'what goes on?'.









...


ooh,
richard.
