Welcome aboard, Emily!
You have the same name as Bukowski's paternal grandmother! Any relation? ;)

Welcome! Boston, eh? I used to live in Andover years ago. Then moved to NM. Then moved back for a few months, to try it out again.
It was NOT a wicked good time.

Welcome! What are your favorite Bukowski works? What have you read and what do you plan to check out.

Why the banana?

First of all, the banana is a work of Warhol, yes.
I am a velvet underground fan and bananas are okay i guess. Although not my favorite of the fruits.

I've read, Ham on Rye, Women, Post Office, Pulp, Hollywood, Notes of a Dirty Old Man and Hot Water Music.
I need to read Factotum, amongst most of his poetry collections.


magick stallion, love the icon, veeeery good part of the shining

I saw the Warhol written on your banana and when you get over 50 the Docs tell you to eat bananas.
I was listening to Lou Reed and TVU on Friday.

Now what kind of whiskey do you like best?
 
if i had money i'd buy good whiskey but as of right now my current condition of income i'm clingin' to the good ol' jack.

never apologize for drinking john daniels. it goes well with andy, and bananas. in fact, make a banana jack boat: carve out the middle of said banana, add john to the middle, and presto "” a bjb.

Bukfan,
bananas are a good source of potassium. Works a little like a diuretic, reducing retention of fluids, therefore reducing high blood pressure.;)

I see! I certainly would prefer eating bananas then, instead of taking diuretic high blood pressure reducing medicine later on. Thanks, Black Swan!
 
Loli: the VU-reference/Warhol-reference by hooch has a background:

the first edition of that cover had a banana you REALLY could peel - and the inside of a banana behind it.
 
Used to have one, but spilled some John Daniels on it trying to make a BJB. Dang. Dang. Dang.

It's like a Rolling Stones bit, eh, Sticky Fingers...

Does it make me old that I didn't have to go to a museum, but just a record store, to peel the velvet Warhol banana?
