Charles Bukowski

  The Laughing Heart your life is your life don't let it be clubbed into dank submission. be on the watch. there are ways out. there is a light somewhere. it may not be much light but it beats the darkness. be on the watch. the gods will offer you chances. know them. take them. you can't beat death but you can beat death in life, sometimes. and the more often you learn to do it, the more light there will be. your life is your life. know it while you have it. you are marvelous the gods wait to delight in you.   © LI NK

ONLINE: Inside the Mart was a very busy cafeteria. In the back was The Evergreen Room, a nice little nightclub with dance floor and live music by the Hank DeMeyer trio. Hank was Mary Lou Gnoza's dad. She is a well-known local vocalist in the Tri-Cities, Richland, WA. (Facebook)

Hank's parents had immigrated from Belgium.

quote of the day

Like the crooked man who lived in a crooked house, it was the characterful, not to say skew-whiff, nature of the house that first drew him there: ‘It works quite well with the higgledy-piggledy of my collecting.’
