I can imagine it, a semi trailer converted into a diner, five tables, juke box, and lunch counter. One a two lane county road with one lane bridge crossing the river a hundred yards from the dinner.


I heard so many stories how it got there, the one I liked best was about the trucker who got lost took the county road by mistake got up to the bridge but it was too narrow to cross so he decided he had finally road out of road, so he parked the truck and lived in it, eating the twenty tons of frozen diners he was hauling. When the frozen meals ran out he made the dinner.A truckers nightmare turned into his blue heaven.
So why there not here?

In the yough, there is a street that runs down into the water at the end and it's there, it's just covered over by water. I wonder if that road goes somewhere, like a small diner for fish.

Thanks, Jack, for helping me to visualizing this.
Made me wonder what fish would listen to on the jukebox, then I thought that the fish might ask in a poet to do a poetry reading, while everyone has their coffees and seem at life there in their booths,

which made me think of Richard Brautigan
reading down on the bottom of a lake, surrounded by trout, at a small diner.

Movie Review


She’s Everything He Wants, and Therein Lies the Problem

“Ruby Sparks,” directed by Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, the team behind “Little Miss Sunshine,” has the same zany and sweet tone laced with just enough hardheaded wisdom to keep it grounded in psychological truth. The screenplay, by Ms. Kazan, is so polished and witty that it immediately puts her in the same league as Diablo Cody. And Ms. Kazan’s lovely, tart performance is the equal of Ellen Page’s portrayal of the title character in “Juno.” Both are impetuous screwball heroines who could have been created only by women.

I shudder to imagine how the same concept might have been treated by the writers in the Judd Apatow school of eternal adolescence. There would be smirking, misogynist jokes about sexual organs, bodily fluids and performance anxiety, and the poor woman would be subjected to humiliating trials.

But Ms. Kazan’s screenplay, which treats Ruby and Calvin (the lead actors are a real-life couple) with equal respect, refuses to go there. What a relief to see a funny romantic comedy whose humor stays above the waist.


‘Ruby Sparks,’ Written by and Starring Zoe Kazan

sson of a bitch I had a nice little paragraph here that just crashed and burned in cyberland. One of thos slippery silicon documents nothing more ephemeral than a few pixels on a screen,

starting over yes the movie looks great would like to see it too mention of jan reminded me of a book called wild child girls growing up in the counter culture, I wish I still had my copy of Baby Driver but I got this stupid habit of giving away books that I love. I did that with Short Timers too. and finally I mentioned a thread for 2007 that I had about that book Wild Child

Bartok had something to do with the video, the bunnies I have no idea anymore.
I think that is what I had wrote or written, all I can remember about it, except I think the other version was better.
