[MMouse]: good books

2000-06-25 Thread Andrew Hager

okay the last book i read was "DANCING QUEEN" by lisa carver. it was
entertaining..but i think the more recent writings ive read by her are much better
than whats in this book..but still i highly reccomend this. its all essays about her
"white trash" upbringings..but she never writes in a mean way..like shes making fun
of them..she handles it very well. and theres a lot of interesting stuff about being
an awkward teenage girl..and reading too many romance novels as a kid..which i think
was funny cause all my female friends are fucked up from reading too many V.C.
ANDREW'S books as kids.
also good that ive read recently are "miss wyoming" by douglas coupland, "the captain
is out to lunh and the sailors have taken voer the ship" by charles bukowski (soo
good..a great representation of where bukowski was coming from...its all jounal
entries of the last like...two years of his life.) , also the newly released thing by
richard braughtigan of old writings..some of his first. (as an interesting
conversation peice..think of this...charles bukowski vs. richard
braughtiganbraughtigan is more hippy-ish...writing more "happy" poems..and relies
on simplicity..and seems to be all about the little things and the beauty of
them...but the guy killed himself...while bukowski was an obnoxious guy who hated
people and most facetts of existance..but the guy lived to be so old and obviously
was stronger willed and seemed to have a better understanding of a beauty of the BIG
PICTURE...its just hidden in there more. yeah im an idiot thanks.) and also ANGERY
YOUNG MEN-a collection of old beat writing. its a rad really old book...i found it in
my attic. im in love with it

Re: [MMouse]: monkeys getting tampons inserted in their mouths/green party

> But it IS! I know this is mean, but visualize a monkey sitting on a

smiles at the money. The monkey laughs at the lab coat, his mouth open

Coat's partner hi fives him. The monkey scampers away. Another monkey takes
his place on the counter, and another Lab Coat starts smiling at him. And
this is the life of a medical research assistant.

it's funny in theory, it's sick and wrong in reality.  i brought a poster
once of all these animals getting tampered with in a lab and i made about
ten people cry, but that's the reaction i want and that's the reaction i
try to get.  plus, it made me realize that some kids around here do have
feelings..maybe even more so for animals than people which is fine by me
because i feel the same ;)

ps i think ralph nader became the official candidate for the green party
today.  does anyone know where i can call and complain that we haven't
gotten a bumper sticker or anything?  if they want good support they're
gonna have to send bumper stickets, pins, or SOMETHING when people donate
like $30 to them.  that's just ridiculous not to.  we never got a thank you

give some some useful criticsm, that'd be great - thanks.

Book - "Understanding Comics" by Scott McCloud - A comic book about how
comic books "work". I have absolutely no interest in comics whatsoever, but
this is easily the most fascinating book I've ever read. If you have any
interest in art and how the human mind works, you REALLY should check it
out. One of my all-time favorites.

Movie - "Bottle Rocket" directed by Wes Anderson - Everyone here should see
this movie.

Music - "I See a Darkness" by Bonnie "Prince" Billie - This record has been
out for a while (early 99), but I just got it a few days ago and it's
rocking my world. Possibly the most bizzarely enjoyable album I've heard
since "In The Aeroplane Over The Sea". The title track is so beautiful you
could pass out and bang your head on something.
