The Secondary Market = Comic Relief
I think an alternate income level does give one an alternate reality. I suppose you can just buy the whole store for thousands of dollars in order to save money on tobacco. That would be an alternate income level AND an alternate reality. One persons reality might say, "Youza! You are nuts...- DAR

The Secondary Market = Comic Relief
I'm a big fan of 'buyer beware'. Do your homework. And if you have $285 to buy a tin of tobacco that may or may not be smokable, go for it and let the rest of us normal people know what comes of it. Just realize that you might be considered either someone that doesn't know what to do with...- DAR

Are You An E-gent?
'Offed' is a weird word......... Brautigan committed suicide by putting a gun to his head and pulling the trigger somewhere around 1994. I know it was at his home in Bolinas Ca. Not sure of the exact year.- DAR

Are You An E-gent?
I have a two set album of Kerouac reading his poetry while Steve Allen plays piano in the background. I find it difficult to read Kerouac. I get bored and can't really follow it but listening to him read his stuff has an incredible rhythm. Like a musical instrument. The jazz singer Mark...- DAR

Are You An E-gent?
That's hilarious....... Sounds like a something Tom Robbins would do..... pretend to be himself. BTW, No, I'm not Brautigan. He offed himself in 94'?..... with one of his really cool six-shooters. He's just a local "hero" in S.F.- DAR

Are You An E-gent?
As a young guy trying to be as hip as people thought I was, (as today I try to be as wonderful as my dog thinks I am) I pretended to understand Ginsberg but I must admit that I didn't really get what he was doing until checking out other writers. Then it came to me but before reading Burroughs...- DAR

Are You An E-gent?
I had read that Brautigan was a paranoid schizophrenic, depressed, cold and distant kind of guy susceptible to mood swings and bad temperament and I was expecting that from him when he was meeting a ragged looking teenage fan like me but I guess I caught him at the right time on a good night. I...- DAR

Are You An E-gent?
That is a great book. I know it's a bit off subject but........ I have most of his books and when I was a teenager I heard he hung out on Saturday nights at Enrico's Cafe on Broadway in North Beach, San Francisco. I was living in Los Angeles so I grabbed my copy of The Hawkline Monster...- DAR

Romaso wins the prize. Not only does he get a lifetime supply of McClellands and Eskimo Pies but I'll throw in an autographed copy of The Hawklin Monster and one of my tins of Pelican.- DAR

Low Acid Coffee Help
I can totally identify....... I was diagnosed with GERD in the mid 90s and was prescribed every single little pill available. It didn't help. To make a long story short, I refused to have any laparoscopic fundalpicacion or any other invasive procedure and they just shook their heads and told...- DAR

RIP Jackie Mason 1928-2021.
One of the best old style comedians ever. Can't forget that voice......... I remember when Starbucks started to appear on every corner, he had an incredibly long rant about how we've totally killed "the coffee shop" of yesterday. I think part of his act was him actually pissed off at things...- DAR

"Earthy" Flavor?
I guess it's that I haven't been a boy in what seems like a hundred years so I don't remember a lot of what I ate back in the covered wagon days.- DAR
