Doughballs like doughballs…those were the days. Yep:alc:
“Hotsy Totsy Leon Trotsky” -Stan Iverson
Trotsky advised the KPD to abandon their “social fascist” analysis for the SPD, to no avail. However, he was no hero. Quite the dictator, in fact.
eeek. Can not stand being fourth 🙁 🙁
I know Paul Zilsel, who helped start the Left Bank bookstore.
sounds like a fun place to visit

I worked there in 1980.
Mostly Morningtown though.
$8.00 a shift. With a pizza for books trade with Left Bank and Red and Black books.
We used to say “Don’t Vote it Only Encourages Them”
Crap…
Noooo not the Comet- Left bank with Paul.
mm sounds neat
The year mt st Helen’s blew and we opened a restaurant named cafe Popocatepetl on Roosevelt near 50th.
I saw Popo, right outside of Mexico City! Well, not the cafe…very clever name, though
yeah- the ex is a huge Malcolm Lowery fan.
Was Karl there at that time? At Left Bank Books? Karl originally from the Bronx? Lived in Israel in the 1960s and early 1970s, then moved to Seattle. (Can’t remember his last name.)
Not remembering Karl.
From Left Bank?
50th and Roosevelt. Isn’t there some sort of Video store there now? I worked at a place nearby. SANE/FLEECE.
Yes. Left Bank. He was big in Kadima. Once met with the PLO to negotiate. He owns a big house in the U district.
Karl Dardick, I believe.
Dave Brown left my name off the Mtown roster.
We had a big (to me ) fight one day and he told me I had a hair up my ass-
Heh heh…Morningtown was the original theatre restaurant.
:fustrate:
too much information.
Gotta battle the rose parade traffic tomorrow.
Paul Zilsel was one of the speakers at that big Rally at Gas Works Park in 1991. He was born in 1923, I believe. In Vienna. He had to escape the Nazis. Was a physicist–as well as a member of the CP. He became an anarchist, as everyone knows.
I hate the fucking Rose Parade. All those goddamn sailors. The bridges going up and halting traffic.:omg:
Popocatepetl was next door to a whorehouse.
I had to serve coffee to the johns while they waited for their appointments. The police knew about it.
The place had a wheelchair ramp.
The building was torn down. A stripmall erected.
The Continential Bakery German Deli was near.
Scarecrow video is up the street and Giggles comedy club where I saw Marc and Mishna last summer and laughed my ass off and tears were streaming down my face and then realized how depressed I had been since the election had been stolen. And became addicted to the funny and now apparently addicted to the blog.

Is my laptop is hotflashing
I got to go back and update my mental map. I lived in that neighborhood in 1991-1992. Have rarely been back.
Where was the SANE office?
Steven Jesse Bernstein! Did he hang out at Left Bank Books in 1980?
SANE/FLEECE? There were two one story houses that they bought in the late 1980s. Maybe 52nd and Roosevelt or 55th. I am trying to think. Alley way. Shit. I am blocked up in the mind.
Probably-
I think I told you months ago about seeing Jesse on a panel with William S Burroughs.
He dated a friend of mine- they were in a dance performance in the 70’s
:gate::yawn::gate:
Tomorrow-
I have to be somewhere at 10.am
sbluefox, No, I know no one in Seatle, although, I almost lived there and use to visit realitives there when I was a wee one… ahhh memories
And Again THANK YOU! and I miss my lap but hubby broke (by accident — so he said hehehe) and then he got this desktop … no more freedom (not free gum but freedom:wink:teehee) :):(

At the Paramount Theater, in 1981. I knew him just before he killed himself in 1991. Shocking. I have still not recovered.
ok, Nush has food now…he’s fed and I’m dressed…I really will have to learn more about Seattle I think…
“Come Out Tonight”
Forecast in chrome and plastic. Tyrants breathing alloy of slavery, planet hunger, versions of Jackie O. Sherry, Sherry baby, won’t you come out tonight? And the stars whisper like old blood at the edges of the body of night. She stood with one hand on the phone for four hours, poised as though only a few seconds had passed. I watched her through the crack between the shade and the sill. She waited for a forecast in human trembling, together with other important women. Come, come, come out tonight. The world suffers for her: The clock hurries like a terrified animal, then stops, dribbling saliva. She has eaten chicken pie and bubblegum. For a month the Luftwaffe lived on raisins. Same with the French, after the war. Jackie O. received fresh oranges from John Kennedy. Silly girl. She cannot put down the telephone receiver. She is waiting to receive my body of work. She wants to take it in her ear. A mottled flush builds under her cheeks. She eats Xmas candy while she waits. The telephone rings and rings. I am not at home. I am with Jackie O. We are eating oranges from the President. We are alone on the roof of a Park Avenue penthouse. Picture of Marilyn Monroe in my back pocket molded by heat and sweat to the shape of my buttocks. You are gripping the phone smiling, eating candy, crying. I am with the important women, now. I am secretly an important man. Hang up the phone. I can’t dance with you, anymore. Go to your freezer and get a popsicle. Go to your TV. Turn on your TV. You will see me and Jackie O. She will be taking it in her ear, the body of my work. In the Planetarium. You will receive a forecast. I will always be more important than you. You will never be important enough. You will never be on the whip-hand of slavery, never be the one to wield hunger against humanity. Heaven will never be an extension of your body. Your body will always belong to someone else. The picture of Marilyn Monroe flutters across the roof, steaming, shaped like me. Shaped like my ass. The sky is filled with oranges during the war. We eat them. The president is alone in a room. He is unimportant. As we eat his oranges the sky grows blacker. The moon ripens and turns red. It rots and is swallowed by the darkness. You are still by the phone. It is ringing and ringing, dead. Sherry, Sherry baby, won’t you come out tonight. It is completely dark. The earth freezes. You put down the receiver and go to the window. Come, come, come out tonight.

NickiRose, re #39 Nice:!::cool::nod:
That was a psychotic poem. You should have heard him perform it.
some of the best poetry is a little psychotic…
Susan Joy, You lived here:?: This was my “backyard” and after living up and down CA I ended here. Born and raised and kiss the ground when I returned here (in this/my state) and now even on CA Street :rofl2:
NickiRose what say you regarding the Jesuits? (:wink:Carefully, since I hold that order dear to my heart — but many “Dis” them horribly — and ultimately, as it probably should be:wink:)

I haven’t trashed the Jesuits for at least a week.
NickiRose, aren’t you Catholic (which is how I was raised) but then again I remember :sdavid:
🙁 Now, I am so confused 😀
NickiRose, I thought I saw :priest: plus you were Jewish.
…and that was one of my lead balloon jokes — “with a seed of truth”.
If Catholic, then my “weak”humour makes a tad more sense — since I had a bit further regarding subject 😀 or it is just toooo close to 4:00am :doh:
I have a two hour tutoring session at 9 AM…better get my ass in gear…I’ll catch everyone later… peace out sheeple :sheep:

Coulter Accused Of Voter Felony. Hires Bush’s Florida Recount Lawyer For Defense.
What? Ted Olson wasn’t available?
Conservative pundit and best-selling political writer Ann Coulter has hired a white-glove, White House-connected law firm to fight allegations she voted illegally in February’s Town of Palm Beach election.
And the attorney from the Miami-based Kenny Nachwalter firm is no stranger to Palm Beach voting. Marcos Jimenez — who was, along with the more famous Olson, one of the lead attorneys who fought for George W. Bush’s side in the 2000 presidential election snafu here — was assigned to Coulter.

Hmm. Seems a bit testy over the Marc blog. I think I’ll stay over here.
You can’t edit your comments on Marc’s blog .. Sheeeeez
It didn’t look like any one posted over there since 2:30 am or so it should be safe PJ
When did Shultz call Randi a slut ?? He had a call in by marines explaining the killing of civilians in IRAQ yesterday.. That was a lot better than a Randi rant.
Hey FK go back and close your link:omg: We are all sub comments or something.:doh:
Hey, this is cool.
Isn’t it fun that on a geologic scale the earth seems to have been a nice target for objects flying though space.. I wonder what Bushco would do if and when we discover the next one.. Oh.. give the upper 1% a tax cut.. I forgot…
What’s fun is that humans think they’re masters of the universe, when we haven’t even existed for a blink of an eye, cosmologically speaking.
Just be thankful for Jupiter. Its mass attracts most of what crusies too close to our solar system, and has spared the earth a lot of the big hits. Sooner or later though, our number will come up again.
Yep humans the proverbial fart in a windstorm.
I remember in Carl Sagan’s Cosmos series he went though the probability of there being life on other planets and most of his extinction analysis revolved around the people developing nuclear technology and blowing themselves away. That is probably not what caused most mass extinctions.
Since it appears the arctic was once tropical one has to wonder if the earth has always been oriented the way it is to the sun.. If the equator went through the poles at some time in the past that might explain a lot of things.
Well, all the land was bunched up in one place at one point. Pangea split up, and South America, Australia, and Antarctica were all part of Gondwana, which of course split up, too (possibly as a result of this meteor they found – or the hole it left that they found). The mountains in Antarctica (the western part, I think) were once part of the Andes.
I like those latest Mars orbiter pictures .. They show what look like really old weathered ruins on the surface.. They must have had Republicans in charge too.
re post 52 – pj did you fixy? I saw it wasn’t “normal” looking but didn’t know what to do and i had to leave for my walk. If you fixed it, gracias!
isi said she was dissed on the show last night. will have to listen.
++++
😮 oh, just had to yell out my front door at a FULL car load of missionaries “trying to encourage folks to read the Bible” that “I don’t need any, thank you.” *SLAM* caught them before they had a chance to fully get out of their vehicle. Thought about letting my large hairy dogs out, but the folks were dressed quite nicely and didn’t think they needed the butt sniffers to muss ’em up. I live 7 miles from town…guess it’s not far enough either that or i need to close the gates.
The martian leaders built the canals during the great martian depression as part of a work relief plan. Then they elected republicans.
Yeah, I fixed the bold tag, and then later I fixed the link tag. No problem. It’s about the only thing I’m good for.
Continental drift is a quite recent geological theory … Getting whacked by a ten mile wide asteroid would probably cause all sorts of stability problems, ringing, wobbling, the equivalent of nuclear winter, tsunamis and and and
I will bet Mars suffered from global warming during the reign of the republicans and then as the atmosphere started burning away the populace build the canals but it was to late. A few escaped to the next closest planet.:omg::eek::rant1:
nah, you’re a good dog walker, too! :love:
i realize this is naive, but can a meteor REALLY be that big to cause extinction? that’s always sounded unfathomable to moi.
Yeah, and the magnetic pole shifts from time to time (I think we’re “due” for one of those), and the tilt on the axis shifts back and forth, too.
Yeah, the results of something that big hitting the earth would vaporize everything for quite some distance, and throw so much crap into the air that nearly everything would freeze and die. The Krakatoa eruption caused years of below normal temperatures globally.
The eruption of Mt. St helens in 1980 was like the equivalent of a 200 megaton explosion. They had three feet of ash east of the eruption and average temperatures increased by several degrees for a year or two.. The volcano in the Philippians did something similar.. Think about what would happen if something 1000 times that magnitude happened.
The one that they think killed off many of the dinosaurs was about 6 miles in diameter. This one they just found is estimated to have been about 30 miles in diameter, and they’re thinking that it broke apart Gowanda, shoving Australia north, and killing about 90% of life on earth. I think they say a 1/2 mile diameter one would cause mass exctinctions (somethign like 75%).
jminey christmas, guys.
===
i did see the ash post-st. helens eruption. friends had to use bulldozers to move it off their property.
my folks live near a little ski resort and when you go up to the top you can see many of the mountain tops in the Cascades (when it’s clear, of course). St. Helens is one of the peaks. Magnificant view. Looking the other direction you see the Columbia river valley. Oh I miss the West Coast. You just don’t get vistas like that in Georgia.
The Co2 problems which are all man made will probably be the first instance of a population causing a mass extinction of itself.. Localized mass displacements are relatively common because civilization exhausted local resources but the mass extinction of a whole population will be something rather unique..You would think that that was why man developed a brain but apparently republicans were not taken into consideration. Hopefully we can stop it from happening.
The air flows along the front range of the Rocky Mountains cause a lot of smoke from forest fires in New Mexico and locally to accumulate so you quite often have bad air alerts during forest fire season.
In 2003 the state smelled like a BBQ all summer. We lost something like three quarters of a million acres of forest that year to man caused fires.
In 75 Philippians was supposed to be Phillipines.. it might have been pretty biblical to those present though.
Canadian police say they have foiled a major “al Qaeda-inspired” bomb plot against targets in and around Toronto. Link.
Apparently the Canadian PM got a memo that said “Al Quaeda determined to attack inside Canada,” and actually did something about it.
I spent a spring and part of the summer in 1984 camped out in the Holiday Inn at Sea-Tack in Seattle and in a motel in Tumwater.. It was some time in July when we finally had a clear day and there was this gigantic white thing to the east.. Mt. Rainier. Washington state is beautiful if you paint your self with RustOleum.

I can’t find the coffee cup:fustrate:
:joe:
Oh yeah it was those coffee candys that made me go on and on.:joe:
Fred can you see Pike’s Peak?
I have my coffee maker plugged into a timer and prepare the coffee the night before.. At least I don’t have to find the coffee and the coffee maker too.
I ahve to stumble down to the lobby for coffee today:nod:
I have to go farther east to see any of the peaks in the front range .. We are to close to the mountains and the foothills around Denver obscure the view.. You can drive out to Aurora and watch the new years eve fire works from Pikes Peak.
GELLERMAN: What are the chances of this asteroid hitting Earth?
TYSON: Well, rather than give you probabilities, because what you really need to know is what’s going on. We know where the object is headed, and we know how fast it’s moving, and we have a sense of the forces of gravity in the solar system. The problem is the uncertainty in that trajectory normally is not a problem; if it misses Earth by a million miles, or a million and a thousand miles, who cares? But, in this case, in the year 2029, the calculations show that this asteroid will come within the orbits of even our communication satellites.
GELLERMAN: Ooh, that’s close.
TYSON: That’s close. That’s close. This will be the largest object ever known to come within our communication satellites in the era of space exploration. And so, turns out, what we know of the orbit right now, we can say it will not hit Earth in 2029 but it might hit Earth in 2036. It will hit Earth in 2036 if it passes through what we call a “keyhole,” which is a range of positions close to Earth where the gravity of the Earth will realign its trajectory ensuring that seven years later it will hit Earth. And so what we need to do is deflect it in such a way that it misses that keyhole.
GELLERMAN: So, this keyhole’s kind of like a place in space, a doorway?
TYSON: Exactly! It’s like a car door through space where the gravity of Earth operating on that asteroid in that corridor will pull on that asteroid in 2029 in such a way that in 2036 it will hit Earth. So, you want to deflect the asteroid so that it misses that keyhole.
GELLERMAN: So, if it did hit Earth, do we know where it might hit?
TYSON: If the asteroid in 2029 passes anywhere in the keyhole we know where it will end up hitting Earth in 2036. It’ll hit somewhere between Hawaii and California in, obviously, the Pacific Ocean. That hit will generate tsunamis on the level that has never been experienced in recorded history. But the advantage is you would know in advance so that, while you might lose $400 billion worth of property, no one actually has to die from this tragedy the way people died in Indonesia. There was no warning for that tsunami. This one you can have decades of warning if, in fact, we can’t do anything about it.
GELLERMAN: So, it sounds like we should be planning for this right now.
TYSON: Right now, there’s legislation in front of Congress to try to vote sensibly about directing monies for study. What would be the best way to deflect it? Do you shoot laser beams at it? Do you attach retrorockets to it? There’s some leading ideas but there are many other ideas in the bin that are being considered. So, Congress has taken the first step.
GELLERMAN: So, Dr. Tyson, do you stay awake at night worrying about the demise of Earth from asteroids?
TYSON: Yeah, well, this asteroid is deflectable. It’s about, you know, 200 meters across, about the size of the Rose Bowl, and, so this one, yeah, I know they’re out there, and it’s a shooting gallery. The ones I really worry about, however, are the kind that’s the size that took out the dinosaurs. Those things are the size of Mt. Everest. That can happen again. It will happen again. And, in that case, if anyone survived you’d have to jumpstart civilization. That’s what I worry about. This is one of the calls for being a multi-planet species – one planet gets taken out, you at least have another one left. Or find really effective ways of deflecting these things. http://www.loe.org/shows/segments.htm?programID=05-P13-00038&segmentID=4
Hopefully we will get the thugs out of office by lets say 2025 so we can work on that asteroid. Unless its made out of solid gold they won’t have anything to do with it.

Hey Previouslyon :peace: Interesting post. I’m trying to imagine how you would evacuate a region in 7 years. Seems like that could be more difficult than evacuating a region in say, a week.
Hey Krista hows it going ??:omg:
Oh, That’s why my swampcooler isn’t working so good yeasterday and today. I hope we get some damn rain out of it.
Hey Fred. :fist:
Americans at least have such short attention spans they will fall asleep between Asteroid hit up dates if its over a period of more than 10 days or so..
I don’t think that they will even comprehend the incoming nuclear warheads alert we will be getting on about the 10th of the month following the nuking of IRAN. Boy will they be surprised… but not for long..(sarcasm)
Hey Nicki,
How come you were so hard on Progressive Spirit? I have no reason to think he’s lying, jiving or bullshitting. His assertion is definitely within the realm of possibility. Schultz puts his foot in his mouth daily. Also, Randi has been seriously critical of him taking DLC money so there is definitely some animosity there.
Do you think this administration would or could warn us about incoming nukes? We may be on our own.:omg:
Putin will probably tell us first.. How it gets to the public may be a bit touch and go.. Probably the Russian news agency and then it will get posted at DU .. then water treatment plant volumes will increase dramatically, for the next 10 minutes or so…
You may be right maybe we won’t want to know..
Any one see Gores movie ?? The only thing thats on the net are the trailers.
An Inconvenient Truth starts here the 9th. I’m waiting with baited breath.
Gore is susposed to be on Rosenberg’s show on AAR in the next half hour.
Hey you guys, help this poll become more Constitutional, we’re losing badly right now.:eek:
Krista-It was largely “Much ADo About Nothing.” But PS was buying into sort of the end of a game of telephone. PS claimed to have heard Schultz call Randi Rhodes a slut on the radio, while trashing Franken for not mentioning Ed’s show on a prominent talk show. Isn’t that what he claimed last night. He heard it, and his wife could back it up.
Ed did say some things about Franken for not mentioning other shows. Mild stuff. And, as PS said, Ed was soon on Al’s show. All was well. As for Randi, Ed never mentioned her on the radio.( This may have changed, as I no longer follow the soap opera.) Somebody said they heard Ed tell the listeners in SF to stay tuned for Randi’s show. But little else, if anything.
There was an incident in Washington, DC where Randi claims that Ed Schultz was extremely rude to her. There was a meetup of progressive talk people before AAR started. Probably some time late in 2003. Randi saw Ed and introduced herself. He in turn, according to Randi, yelled at her, called names (Slut?)., and walked away. For what it’s worth, Ed denies that any such incident took place.
This stuff is all in Randi Rhodes’s blog archives. I was hoping that someone would chime in last night who knew the real story. (Or hell. If someone could produce a recording of Ed saying the stuff about Randi on the radio, I would eat a raw possum.)
Any questions? Was I clear?
Hey Nicki, gotta go to breakfast with someone, will respond later.
Pea out.
Hey- hi all- I posted Dowd…
This situation is just so tragic….incredible….
Just returning from a late, LATE, jazz set at The Livingroom.
How’s everyone in this room?
:yinyang:
:omg:
HoK hows KK ??:eek::doh:
AAR must think bringing one the news of what the Bushivecs think unemployment is is funny or something..:barf::eek::mad:
The Randi/Ed spat wouldn’t have anything to do with them being on the air opposite each other, would it? And why is he calling her a slut? Is he mad because she’s not giving him any? Sheesh.
Some of us don’t have big problems with sluts. Not saying Randi is or isn’t, I wouldn’t know, but still. :hubba:
If someone could produce a recording of Ed saying the stuff about Randi on the radio, I would eat a raw possum.
Comment by NickiRose — June 3, 2006 @ 1:49 pm
Nicki, I bet Ed would be willing to shoot one for you if you asked him nicely. 😀
Al Gore is on Snuffleupagus tomorrow morning. Wonder if he’s seen any good movies lately.
From a content, guests, handling of callers and general show flow stand point Randi runs a rather poor second to Shultz..From being a real progressive stand point Randi is much, much better than Shultz. Maybe they should be on together.. hehehehe.. ( insert picture of a matter anti matter explosion here)

ISI
marc said he knew he shouldn’t have gone down that road….
you’re entitled to your opinion….that’s what blogs are for, yes?
Just got home. Walked around DC all day, but the only museum I did was Air and Space. I didn’t do an IMAX, but it was really cool to go in through the staff exit and avoid the line and the security check. Stopped at Ruby Tuesdays in Chinatown for dinner. Met a kid (gonna turn 30 at the end of this month) who moved to DC a year ago from Norfalk , ‘cuz her grandmother got sick. She can’t find a job, and is at the end of her rope, just about ready to join the military.
Oh, and Ed Schultz is both a slut and a whore.
thanks suz- I usually cant look at it again because I tear it apart….but I seem ot have traffic from all over the world…and not just my friends around the world either.
Im off to an arcade with Will…seems that he feels like we should be out and about more…ugh!
More on the Marc blog thing later…Isi, didyou see what I wrote to you (and Marc) on last night’s blog…
?
My question is, why are things nasty over on Maron’s blog?
I need to read it later….Ive never felt very at home there and hesitate ot write much on a site ownned by AAR.
Oh, man. Vince Welnick died.
RE:116
In fact, someone did e-mail Schultz about the Washington DC naame calling incident. The respone was something like “Where the fuck do you people get that stuff?”
:rofl2::omg:
What’s that got to do with Al Gore being on Snufalufagus?

Flanders puts these feel good guests on her show and shuts off the lady from California who noted the water was up to the hatches on the bow. Bad news is to what.. ????:fu::fu::fu:

Was the 2004 election stolen? No.
In Rolling Stone, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. argues that new evidence proves that Bush stole the election. But the evidence he cites isn’t new and his argument is filled with distortions and blatant omissions.

Whatever his aim, RFK Jr. does :omg::rofl2::fu:
the Ginsberg stuff 🙂
Hey- the 4400 is back on ch 4…they seem to be doing a catch up show. It used to be on USA I think…I love this show!
The MP3’s of AARs weekend programming are in torrent form on mininova.
there are some interesting comments to the above referrenced salon piece. hope kennedy responds.
pj, should you be meeting “shes” at Ruby Tuesdays?? 😉
and hope that rot-gut is still tasty.
LOL!
===
melina, enjoy it while you can; before you know it he won’t want to have much to do with you – such is the nature of teens. and yes, mine was hurting very badly, btw!
Hey, when they come and sit down next to you and start talking, whattya gonna do? Besides, it’s lonely here in the big city.
Had a Turkey Burger and a couple (OK, three) very large Killian’s drafts. Tasty indeed.
She would never say where she came from
Yesterday dont matter if its gone
While the sun is bright
Or in the darkest night
No one knows
She comes and goes
Goodbye, ruby tuesday
Who could hang a name on you?
When you change with every new day
Still Im gonna miss you…
Dont question why she needs to be so free
Shell tell you its the only way to be
She just cant be chained
To a life where nothings gained
And nothings lost
At such a cost
:omg:
When I was a kid I thought it was “Groovy Tuseday” :tongue:
That’s what “they” did at the restaurant in the Holiday Inn at Seatac too.. One of the waitresses had to explain it to me. Those were the days of the Green River killer so I found it amazing what one would go through to eat.
BTW, here’s that interview that Marc mentioned the other day (just heard the show today; not good to be laughing out loud in public with your earbuds in).
Bushco stole the fucking election. Why did the Democrats let this crime go down?
Why does every thing suck?
Because corporations rule!
:omg::rofl2:
Where the hell is everybody? I’m gone!
RFKjr is doing his thing on David Bender’s show.
I don’t know, the other blog?
Bobby puts the blame on the media. The press.
the press did ignore the whole thing for the most part
Sore loser.
Good questions, DB.
No, they’re not. 14 posts all day.
Speaking of the media: the second panel was clipped .

ARREST!
IMPEACH! (format by KevinM)
VIGILANCE!
I saw the best minds of my generation destroyed by
madness, starving hysterical naked,
dragging themselves through the negro streets at dawn
looking for an angry fix,
angelheaded hipsters burning for the ancient heavenly
connection to the starry dynamo in the machin-
ery of night,
who poverty and tatters and hollow-eyed and high sat
up smoking in the supernatural darkness of
cold-water flats floating across the tops of cities
contemplating jazz,
who bared their brains to Heaven under the El and
saw Mohammedan angels staggering on tene-
ment roofs illuminated,
who passed through universities with radiant cool eyes
hallucinating Arkansas and Blake-light tragedy
among the scholars of war,
who were expelled from the academies for crazy &
publishing obscene odes on the windows of the
skull,
who cowered in unshaven rooms in underwear, burn-
ing their money in wastebaskets and listening
to the Terror through the wall,
who got busted in their pubic beards returning through
Laredo with a belt of marijuana for New York,
who ate fire in paint hotels or drank turpentine in
Paradise Alley, death, or purgatoried their
torsos night after night
with dreams, with drugs, with waking nightmares, al-
cohol and cock and endless balls,
incomparable blind; streets of shuddering cloud and
lightning in the mind leaping toward poles of
Canada & Paterson, illuminating all the mo-
tionless world of Time between,
Peyote solidities of halls, backyard green tree cemetery
dawns, wine drunkenness over the rooftops,
storefront boroughs of teahead joyride neon
blinking traffic light, sun and moon and tree
vibrations in the roaring winter dusks of Brook-
lyn, ashcan rantings and kind king light of mind,
who chained themselves to subways for the endless
ride from Battery to holy Bronx on benzedrine
:rabbi::omg:
I am just so sad re Bobby. Once again a Kennedy is TRYING to save the IDIOTS 🙁
…and the many say with blinders on “there is nothing wrong with the bush’s government…what is Bobby talking about?
Theocrats Rule!
The second panel came through in the mail. The clip came when I printed it out.
I can’t figure out why it got cut off (it looks fine here), but I’ll resend…
it’s ok? oh good 😀
“let’s waste the environment and screw social justice because we have the rapture coming up” I guess they also expect a God that applauds their dispicable actions in this world…very selective about which aspects of their religion they choose to follow…
David Bender has a great show. KPOJ runs it on Sunday mornings.
yeah, it’s on in the morning here too, they’re replaying it again. Same with Ring of Fire…
Yvonne e-mailed me. Said she was “crabby because I insulted her.” I know there is more to it. And I won’t take it personally.
When is that Little Steven’s Underground Garage, that’s tomorrow, right?
Susan Joy, :nod: re 166
NickiRose, poem :nod: 😎
ARREST!
IMPEACH! (format by KevinM)
VIGILANCE!
David once suggested that I tell KPOJ to run his show. I did, they do now.
WLIB is the flagship station. Lucky You.
ok, I don’t get what she was insulted by, Portland vs. Philadelphia? that’s just silly
The UnderGround Garage plays on Sunday.
You convinced your station to run David Bender? That’s pretty awesome…WLIB, aren’t I lucky, the station is going to stop carrying AAR this summer.
ok, tomorrow night I’m going to listen to it again! :peace:
I think it has something to do with her creepy boyfriend. I’ll tell you more about it, if you are interested, on a more secure site.
ok.
Has that been confirmed? WLIB going to Clear Channel, or something?
I don’t know, I’m just going by what was mentioned on this blog… I should research it on my own
If that liberal media group buys WLIB, it won’t be the end of AAR in NYC. Rather, you will get other programs in the mix. Schultz, Stephanie, and so forth. The Clear Channel model. The one that KPOJ pioneered.
a site called Mediaweek has something about WLIB going kaput on August 31st “according to an informed source”
not looking forward to Schultz and Stephanie :omg:
How did the AAR people let this happen? It was great having a flagship station–with all of the shows. I have never been this loyal to a radio network, shows, yes, not a network.
I don’t know, I don’t get the politics of AAR here… they say WLIB does’nt have great ratings, but that’s also because WLIB has shitty reception, and plus they didn’t promote the station much
I hear that every taxi driver in NYC has AAR on the radio. I don’t believe that AAR gets bad ratings in NYC.
I honestly don’t know. I know plenty of people who listen to it
It is really popular in Portland.
you guys are more progressive I think 😮
there are a lot of “Democrats” here (not in the best sense of the word) And Westchester is the most liberal suburb I think.
I don’t know how you could measure that sort of thing. Is it true that AAR does not do well in Boston? Liberal Boston.
I don’t know…I guess I can’t really measure. I just know that there are a lot of people here who are moderates and not really liberals…
Probably a lot like here.
I’m hungry :omg: warming up leftover Chinese
They are supposedly finding another outlet because the lease was allowed to lapse with LIB….Its crazy because its the flagship station…but they will find something else if its true.
Alot of NYers were unhappy to have LIB switch from being a black liberal station…on Sundays at 9AM the Rev Al Sharpton has a little local show there still and at night it reverts back to some of the black shows….
Anyway, this news has been goign round and round and they keep changing the dates.
Saturday Nite Live sucks…My son is watching it…so horrible compared to the first couple of seasons, and those in between eddie murphy/joe piscapo years….
Anyway, I posted a new movie on RIPCoco for anyone interested in how birds and dogs get along sometime;-)
I hope they do find another outlet 🙁
Damn. Out of wine. I guess I gotta go shoping tomorrow.
I ultimately went down for some take out sushi for us because Will couldntget moving…but when I got there to pick up the order there was a cockaroach on the bag…they are doing construction on the restaurant, but it was horrible…and I took the food anyway because the bag was stapled and the food sealed in plastic containers…but Will and I were totally freaked out. We’d prefer to not know when we’re getting our yearly alotment of bugs in our food.
ugh!!
I think I am going to get some fresh Chinese. It was a treat to go eat at a Chinese Restaurant when I was growing up. It’s still a treat, only I get to decide when it will happen.
PJ- youre gonna become an alchie there alone in your dorm drinking boxes of wine! You need a webcam home to your wife so you can watch TV together and talk. Boxed wine is not the answer…believe me Ive tried!
yeah, you get to decide, eating out is fun 🙂
Dry Red Italian table wine is on sale at Zupans.
:omg::rant1:
I need some wine in the house…
Hey Nicki,
Turned out to be a busy day. Talked all day, I’m not used to that.
I heard all the Ed/Franken stuff and Ed was peeved that Franken took all the credit for ratings in the time slot that they share. He kinda went off about it and then backed off but you could tell he was angry at Franken. ANd like you said Ed went on Frankens show and pretty much “forgot” he ever said anything.I never heard the Ed/Randi one but I still don’t see how you can say that PS didn’t hear it when you admit to not having heard the show after a certain point. Schultz clearly has a record of saying nasty things on his show and other peoples’ show(and so is Randi and she has never said anything good about Schultz that I have heard) and is capable of denying what he’s said or done. I still need to follow up on the accusation of Dr. Mike and Jeff Farias that Ed Schultz took voice lessons to sound like Rush. I almost forgot about that. So I still don’t understand why you can be so sure that PS didn’t hear what he said he heard.
nite all!
maybe I’ll get wine when I listen to Little Steven tomorrow 🙂
goodnight Melina! 🙂
I got some saki but it might be getting too hot to drink it hot and I don’t like it cold.
So, the contention is that Ed Schultz called Randi Rhodes a slut on his radio show.
I know, I’ve been reading this on the blog…have no idea why though
saki is something I’ve never experienced believe it or not
The contention is that PS heard it. I have no reason to disbelieve him from my limited experience with him. I’ll put his statement down as a witness and leave it at that. If I get more information in the future about it, I’ll add that to the file. If I get info that refutes PS’s assertion then I will take that into consideration. But it’s not an important enough issue for me to go digging in Randi’s archives.
:love:saki is much easier on my tummy than wine

The story is long, and has been hashed over here so many times I’ve lost count.
Basically, it’s a combination of things.
* Ed and Randi compete in the same time slot (3-6 PM ET). Since Clear Channel seems to have an agreement to run Ed’s show live in that slot, it pushes Randi to evenings in the eastern U.S., and sometimes even cuts her hours. It doesn’t affect you much in L.A., where it means she’s on in afternoon drive, but she’s on a 3 hour delay by the time it gets to you. Jones Radio (his syndicator) is quite aggressive about pushing live clearances for his show.
* Ed has spoken ill of Randi, and called her (off air) a four letter word starting with S and ending with T, and with an LU in the middle. Tim has details on that one.
* Randi was her usual “want to meet everyone” self when the two were in, I believe, Washington, DC for an event, and he basically blew her off and acted like a jerk. Think of the Michael Moore scene in “Left of the Dial”, only Ed did NOT come back to shake her hand (like Moore did when he realized cameras were there).
That’s just the short version.

gotta protect your tummy…
Then why is there an argument?? :smack:
I caught a repeat of Ed’s Friday, April 1 show. While he did not name the names of his accusers (Randi?), he resents people claiming that he takes money from the Democrats. The name Atherton came up in his monologue. He denied taking money from that person. I think that he brought the subject up again today. But I wasn’t listening closely. (The main topic concerned the vigilante minutemen in AZ.He was not unsympathetic to them.) He did say that “My show has the most live feeds of any progressive radio show,” perhaps in response to all of the media attention that AAR has been getting lately.
Actually, Schultz is rarely critical of AAR. In fact, he often says good things about the network, including kudos to Al and Janeane. He recently said that “Air America is a good outfit.” (I’ve never heard him speak Randi’s name.)
Ed may be a little on the conservative side for my taste, but he is not my enemy. Perhaps one day he will even apologize to Randi for the awful name calling incident.

I’m sorry to hear all this. I really like Ed, he is more in line with my beliefs, and his book is great, am reading it right now. He doesn’t get shreiking hysterical and call people names like randi did yesterday (she called a caller a “freak”) while saying some really ridiculous things. But i still enjoy her show overall, she is bright and a good debater, we need her even if she’s a little TOO left for me. I wish Ed would patch up things.
The only thing I ever heard Ed say about Randi was “I don’t like her” in response to a caller’s question. These facts do lower my opinion of him. We need to be united, not divided.
This kind of publicity is not doing AAR any good 🙁
The point of contention is whether or not Ed called Randi the SL** word “ON THE AIR.
Ed has learned to keep his mouth shut a little.But only after having a good bit of his foot in his mouth. He still sucks in my book and I find him disengenuous. I won’t put him down with people who are wavering but I won’t lie about my feeling towards him either.
there must be some archives of the show in question I would think. Jeez, now I’m really curious…
Fuck Ed Schultz!

ok, now I’m being retarded, I’ll stop 🙂
I have a lot of material for the next issue. Just need to do a little bit of writing and some gathering of images.
They need to get some sort of kissing emoticon.
if you need help looking for images let me know, I’m pretty good online searches at least…
yeah, we really need one, I’m going to have to start typing words out like “smooch” !
Do you have a favorite off beat business that you want to create an ad for? Perhaps AAR. Promote your book.
I’ll have to publish my book before I promote it… you know I know someone I can ask, though… my friend has a business, she sells incense. I’ll ask her.
Do a teaser for your book. Be vague.
Tie the ad somehow with the EW.
I’ll think of something. EW?
I am listening to Mariners Radio Network. They just beat Kansas City, 12-1.
hmm, it’s actually totally quiet here. Wow, that’s crazy, I need music or something…
Oh. I should have said TNJD.
aha! New Jersey Devil. Electric Warrior.
NJ Devil is kind of ugly, (the images I’ve seen of it on the internet, anyway)

Long day just got back- lots of drunks on the road.

What do you know about Cyrus? He’s the One and Only. (substitute Nicki) ??? A whole lotta magic
Um…come out and play???
I just found a picture of me passing out fliers at an art event I organized.
Michael from the Bronx is on the Malloy show. He always has a good take on current politics. Then he usually throws in a bad joke. What a character.
