“Är ni säkra på att det inte är som i Ljusdals raggarklubb Roadrunners, där styrelsen bara är en front åt fruarna/flickvännerna som är de egentliga makthavarna? Allt bestäms av fruarna över telefon innan medlemsmötena och sen berättar de för resten av klubben vad de bestämt under mötena. I Ljusdal funkar konceptet skitbra. Både LS och Roadrunners är i praktiken matriarkat!”

“Det finns flera exempel på viktiga händelser som inte nämns i historieböckerna. 1560 utfärdade till exempel ärkebiskop Laurentius Petri ett förbud mot att låta döpa, viga eller jordfästa ”tattare”. 1637 kom en lag om etnisk rensning. Resandefamiljer beordrades lämna riket. De män av ”tattarursprung” som påträffades därefter skulle avrättas genom hängning utan rättegång. Kvinnor och barn skulle utvisas.”

“The History Of One Tough Motherfucker he came to the door one night wet thin beaten and
terrorized
a white cross-eyed tailless cat
I took him in and fed him and he stayed grew to trust me until a friend drove up the driveway
and ran him over
I took what was left to a vet who said,”not much
chance…give him these pills…his backbone
is crushed, but is was crushed before and somehow
mended, if he lives he’ll never walk, look at
these x-rays, he’s been shot, look here, the pellets
are still there…also, he once had a tail, somebody
cut it off…” I took the cat back, it was a hot summer, one of the
hottest in decades, I put him on the bathroom floor, gave him water and pills, he wouldn’t eat, he
wouldn’t touch the water, I dipped my finger into it
and wet his mouth and I talked to him, I didn’t go any-
where, I put in a lot of bathroom time and talked to him and gently touched him and he looked back at
me with those pale blue crossed eyes and as the days went
by he made his first move
dragging himself forward by his front legs
(the rear ones wouldn’t work)
he made it to the litter box
crawled over and in,
it was like the trumpet of possible victory
blowing in that bathroom and into the city, I
related to that cat-I’d had it bad, not that
bad but bad enough one morning he got up, stood up, fell back down and
just looked at me. “you can make it,” I said to him. he kept trying, getting up falling down, finally
he walked a few steps, he was like a drunk, the
rear legs just didn’t want to do it and he fell again, rested,
then got up. you know the rest: now he’s better than ever, cross-eyed
almost toothless, but the grace is back, and that look in
his eyes never left… and now sometimes I’m interviewed, they want to hear about
life and literature and I get drunk and hold up my cross-eyed,
shot, runover de-tailed cat and I say,”look, look
at this!” but they don’t understand, they say something like,”you
say you’ve been influenced by Celine?” “no,” I hold the cat up,”by what happens, by
things like this, by this, by this!” I shake the cat, hold him up in the smoky and drunken light, he’s relaxed he knows… it’s then that the interviews end
although I am proud sometimes when I see the pictures
later and there I am and there is the cat and we are photo-
graphed together. he too knows it’s bullshit but that somehow it all helps. -bukowski”

“

Jesus, what a good question. Oh my god. Someone needs to give you a dollar for that.

Okay. I do love to learn. It’s all I feel like I’m ever doing. It’s really the best you can do in life, is learn. You can’t really do anything right. You can just learn. Right now, I am learning to be a dad. I am learning how to take better care of myself and my kids. I”m learning how to communicate with people in my life.

Professionally, I’m learning right this minute, a HUGE amount with this web experiment. this live at the beacon thing (available at httlp://www.louisck.com for 5 bucks) is like that thing in the movie “Twisiter” where they send a bunch of little data collecting balls up into a tornado and just download the lovely results. The whole things has been like that. From the moment it went online and i saw the result of every decision i made. the last question the web guys asked me before we posted was if I wanted the mail list button defaulted to “opt in” or “opt out” and i said start it at opt out. It’s such a tiny thing but I keep hearing about it from people. So so interesting to watch this grow.

“

We, the Ben & Jerry’s Board of Directors, compelled by our personal convictions and our Company’s mission and values, wish to express our deepest admiration to all of you who have initiated the non-violent Occupy Wall Street Movement and to those around the country who have joined in solidarity. The issues raised are of fundamental importance to all of us.

These include:

* The inequity that exists between classes in our country is simply immoral.

* We are in an unemployment crisis. Almost 14 million people are unemployed. Nearly 20% of African American men are unemployed. Over 25% of our nation’s youth are unemployed.

* Many workers who have jobs have to work 2 or 3 of them just to scrape by.

* Higher education is almost impossible to obtain without going deeply in debt.

* Corporations are permitted to spend unlimited resources to influence elections while stockpiling a trillion dollars rather than hiring people.

”
