[Anonymous-one]

You can call me anything but bourgeois.

[stilltrucking]

Emma goldman got thrown out of the US during world war One. Her hero was Lenin. So she went to Russia. She had a nice conversation with him. She was concerned about how free speech was so threatend in USSR. He told her that free speech was such a bourgeois notion.

Just don't call me late for dinner.

Lenin was using the word bourgeois , like Bush
uses the word terrorist.A key word for anybody
that doesn't think , act , or see things the way they
would like them to see.

A-O.

[stilltrucking]

I heard a guy on BBC give the history of the word terrorist. Goes back to the 18th century and the French revolution. Marx gives me the He B G Bees. Hitler was just a piker compard to stalin I think. I remember when Old Uncle Joe was a hero of mine. Up until after the war. Sentimental kid that I was. I remember the fifties and Red China. Now that China has got some dough they ain't red no moe. Poor third world countries in south america with no money to spend when they want to go socialist it is a threat to us.

God must have loved the bourgois, he made so many of them.
forgot the bit exactly from an African novel
"When the center can not hold things fall apart" parahrase from memory.

That big hump in the middle of the bell curve, the middle class?
Is that what you mean by bourgois? the middle classes?

Germany after world war one, the collapse of the middle class/
Rich and poor and nothing in between, a recipe for disaster.
I don't get this thing with the bourgois. "We have met the enemy and they are us" Pogo

[stilltrucking]

OK
Bourgeois

1 : of, relating to, or characteristic of the townsman or of the social middle class
2 : marked by a concern for material interests and respectability and a tendency toward mediocrity
3 : dominated by commercial and industrial interests : CAPITALISTIC

It is line three that is the problem, we need an enlightened middle class.
Nothing wrong with being average or Mediocre I know I am. The bell curve almost a mystical symbol for me. Out on the tail ends the saints and sinners, in the middle the sheep.

Last night we watched Lenny

I hadn't watched it in some years

but I have always remembered the climax scene

it's the one where Dustin Hoffman, as Lenny Bruce

is being dragged out of a courtroom screaming,

"You need your deviants!"

[stilltrucking]

Yeah. I got to see that movie.

I was thinking about the bit he did on the McGruder film shot in Dallas during JFK's murder. Jackie climbing up on the trunk of the limo trying to get out of there...
The official version was she was going to get help. Lenny said she was hauling ass out of there. I bet if Jack had time for any last words they would have been, "Run jackie, run, save yourself"

[Doreen Peri]

Hmmm.... and I was hoping you were going to answer K&D, 'truckin. I've been wondering what the hand puppets were all about for some time now.

What whole thing did you delete anyway?

Everybody on the planet can be considered a weirdo since they are different than everybody else on the planet.

But none of us are strange. At least we're not any stranger than the other.

Hell, some of us have known each other for quite some time. How could we be strangers?

[tinkerjack]

I talk to myself. Somebody here a was writing about that man of hers that wasn't hers. A dam good writer. Not sure who she meant, but she he would wear different hats for different characters. You know to like get into the character or something. I can't do characters. Sometimes i sit here and read what I have wrote and talk back to myself like a kid having imaginary conversations using hand pupptets that's all. Remember that post about favorite movies. There is another sci fi movie I love, have seen ten times maybe more. Blade Runner. There is a scene where the interigator is interviewing someone to see if he is human or a replicant. He asks "Tell me about your mother." The replicant says "My mother? I'll tell you about my mother" Pulls out a huge pistol and blows the guy through the wall stil sitting in his chair. So tell me about your father.

so the internet is a place for you to act out on your fragmentation? we have this class intro to political science, the teacher, he really gets into the idea that life fragments us into roles, perhaps you don't feel comfortable with any of your fragments, you don't have a full whole...sometimes i feel that way. its a bit deceptive, i mean i realized you were the same but, kinda confusing...maybe its just a litterary thing?

news falsh: fats Domino missing in wake of New Orleans dissaster, that sucks.
