"A Day In a Life (One of Many) Of a Pot-Smoker"
(CON'T From Last Issue.)
Call Stidfole. No answer. Call the other number leave a futile message asking if I can
exhibit a bomb at the Hygienic. (OK so the pot got the best of me.) Can't think of
anyone else to call. Call information and get the number for the Keep. There's gotta
be a way to recoup these little bills I incur on the part of the Hygienic. That cost 75 cents.
Call The Keep. L e a v e a m e s s a g e o n t h e a n s w e r i n g m a c h i n e .
Gahhhhhh!!! No. NOT another cup of coffee. I'm coffee'd out now.
Look I gotta lotta calls out and I should really leave the line free for incoming calls.
I go get a drink of Kool-Aid. Fruit juice and sugar water, but it's soothing. While in the
kitchen I look outside. A miracle! I can see through the window. It's warm enough
outside to evaporate water! How nice on a late January day. I feel instant guilt that I'm
not outside in it with the dog. The lawyer's cars half fill the backyard parking lot and
there are no squirrels, no dogs or cats or raccoons, moose, elephants, nor any other
critters around. (See? Works good, dont it? ) no people either. The sunlight is
rather harsh due to a high haze in the sky. There are a few fleecy cumulus around,
about scattered I'd say. The colors are all brown and gray, with a thin film of salt
washing even these colors almost into a black-and-white world. It's winter, that's
for sure. I pick up my book (Haggard's "King Solomon's Mines") and head
back into the bed/computer/telephone room. There's no one I can call now. Time's
passing. I know Scott's typing away, but there's nothing I can do at this point.
Well, I'll read about Alan Quartermain as Macumazahn and Bougwhan (Good)
killing Scragga to stop him from massacree-ing some beautiful maiden in some
sort of put-up job by Twala the King and Gagool the evil witch-crone who'd
lived forever. Haggard took 5 pages to describe the scene in the book but this
will have to do for us because Vinnie called. Ah! The time for Albert's poetry
reading is 7pm but Vinnie doesn't know if he's got dancers. He does know
that there's supposed to be someone else who'd like to do a dance piece, but he's
rather vague about the fringes of that, too. At least I got one hard fact. Vinnie
says he'll call Bill, then Scott. I tell him I'll call Scott in the meantime. We hang
up. I do so. I tell him the time for Abert's poetry reading and that he is to expect
a call from Vinnie and/or Bill with any further information they might have.
He's happy with that. I hang up and wait. Nothing happens so I go find
the roommate and tell him it's time to move. He's lying across the kitchen table -
spread quite like an omoeba absolutely zonked on pot. He sort of effervesces
with amoeba-like colors of chartreuse, whit-orange and pink with narrow
bands of blue forlining. It's pitiful. I scrape him into a glass jar, and
abjure JACS quite strenuously that he is to STAY! Dog cringes. I tuck the
glass jar containing my roommate into a coat pocket and head out to the car.
When I got outside, my roommate came to life again, the car started on the
first try and it was almost spring for a mini-microsecond. But it's still winter
so we threaded our way through traffic to his old apartment.

PRIME Anarchist World News - HEAVEN, Gate.
A little boy wanted $100 badly and prayed for two
weeks but nothing happened. Then he decided to write a letter to the Lord
requesting the $100. When postal authorities received the letter addressed
to the Lord, USA, rather than take up arms and lock themselves in local
McDonaldses and Taco Bells, they decided to send it to President Clinton.
The Prez was so impressed, touched, inspired, teari-eyed, and amused
that he instructed Madeline Albright to send the little boy a $5 bill. He
thought this would appear to be a lot of money to the "kid."
The boy was delighted with the $5 and sat down to write a thank -
you note to The Lord, which read:
Dear The Lord,
Thank you very much for sending me the money. However, I noticed
that for some odd reason you had to send it through Washington, DC
and as usual, those jerks deducted $95.
Love,
Tommy
