So instead of being up front with us, he resorts to treating us like we're stupid. Well just for that, I am not going to check out his book on Milk of Magnesia or whatever it is.

I recently re-watched this. There are a lot of moments in Born that I love. But I had forgotten that Harry Dean Stanton knew Buk. Stanton's reading was really well-done. Also liked Tom Waits' reading. Didn't care much for Bono's, though.

Good to know.

Now that's a good dog.

But why do you let your dog do all the work?

Hello, Cavan. "Pleasures..." is a good book for first timers. It's a hodgepodge of Bukowski's other books. Plus a little uncollected material. I'd love to see how your study goes.

Welcome, L.T.! I found Buk through poetry as well. I like "Sifting Through the Madness for the Word, the Line, the Way", "Flash of Lightning Behind the Mountain", and "What Matters Most is How Well You Walk Through the Fire."

In Julia Child's voice, of course.

Tomei was also looking very good in that motorcycle movie I can't think of now with Travolta, Macy, Martin whats-is-name, and some other guy I can't think of. EDIT: It was Wild Hogs! I think.

If Black Swan is a patapouf, you may have a long wait in store.

Maybe that's usually true, but I've met plenty of women who are pretty good at being men.

Interestingly, that thread was started on my birthday three years ago.

That DVD has been laying next to my TV for months. Finally put it in the player Sunday night. I enjoyed it. Maybe not the best movie, but decent acting all around. I thought maybe Dillon was reaching too hard to emulate Buk. But then I also thought perhaps the director tried too hard to...

Well, ottoman potato just sounds weird.

Those last two posts are comedy gold. Golf claps all around.

I'd rather not. Reminds me of a dried out Vonnegut. I feel your pain. Anyone who tries to be Buk doesn't earn much respect around here.

Probably the strangest burger on Tailpipes menu is the Shelby Cobra. Toppings include goat cheese and cranberries.

Similar and intriguing. I'd be interested in knowing more.

Then perhaps "patapouf" may be where "couch potato" comes from?
