Appreciate your friends
Good job. Good morning David. I just finished reading Locked in the Arms of a Crazy Life last night. It was an easy read and packed tight with information. He did a good job researching that.

Next question please.

I know he visited an uncle (maybe living in Andernach) and Carl Weissner.
And he no doubt gave some readings in some big cities.

That's all

Guess, I'm out of competition on this one.

Ambreen: it was only one reading in one city - sure you'll find it easy! The uncle was right (Andernach). Weissner lives - where? The 4th could be tough.

But I think some cats here got 'Shakespeare' ...

Right On!! I'll need a few in order to come up with a question. Stay tuned...:)

Later that evening:

Okay- Bukowski very rarely went to the movies, but he did go to see a film thinking it might be something like his novel, WOMEN. What film was it? And for bonus points who was the director? CRB:)

Nope. This came 2 years later.:)


Now, it's not quite 24hours later here in EST, since I posed the Question. It would be nice if one of you fine knowledge-able folks would solve this puzzle before the night is through,(or before I pass out, whichever comes first).
If you DO solve it, you get to be the one to fly the next question!.....Every guess gets a hint...I'll even give one now- Letters-1977. :)CRB

I think it may have been:

The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh:D

or on a more serious note

The Man Who Loved Women

both fine films from the year 1977.

strangegirl got it! With Winnie the Pooh!
Just kidding, 'The Man Who Loved Women' is IT!
Congrats! Next question please.:)

Damn it! I knew that would happen.

Okay I might need a day or two for this.

Please Bare with me.:D

Okay now i have some homework to do.:cool:

all right here it is.
I will warn you, and I know, probably not a good idea.
But i'm going to say it anyway.

I suck at trivia. But here I go..... this is a multiple choice, as i couldn't decide which one to use. You can choose which one you want to answer.


1. "Marvin finished his wine and got the attention of the waitress......"
What did she do?


okay and if that one was way too easy here's another...
actual trivia....

2. What was the name of his City College English Professor, and (bonus question) what Song and Lyricist team did he learn about, that gave him "songs that stayed with him throughout his life as they were particularly suited for drunken singalongs."

okay thanks for playin'.

I'll take my answers off-line.:D

My bad ..... See I told you .."No good with the trivia."

Alright Roni the Gilbert and Sullivan, bonus question was correct. But I should have specified that I was looking for the name of his Real Life City College English teacher, not the name he used for him in Ham on Rye.

So question to the panel....:confused:
Does he get the win,
Or should I hold out for the real life English Teacher?

maybe this helps the decision:

She (the waitress) trundled over.

But since I'm shy of a good question, maybe we'd wait for someone to come up with the teacher, so he (or she) would have to make up a new question.

Trundled, is a GREAT word!

No, I don't have the answer to this question, I just really like that word! I'll move on over to the 'pothead' thread now. Thanks. See-ya'. Bye.:)

i don't know i can't find it where are we where's chronic at?;)

(somewhere in the all things not Bukowski thread would be my best guess)CRB:)
