This guy from Oahu, the last of his tribe
Not to confuse the matter but my wife does enjoy eating escargot And in his song about Florida which I wrote about yesterday Stew admits that edible “gator tail” is “the joint” Which I believe means very good
The New York Times dateline New Delhi, Sunday, January 13, 2019 by Suhasini Raj and Jeffrey Gettleman “Father Is Arrested in Beheading Of Girl, 16, Who Wanted to See Her Boyfriend”.
You wonder if conservative classicist film restorer and exhibitor David Packard programs The Stanford Theatre nostalgically and to maintain a social order.
The Apu films — I saw parts of two of them last night – to articulate a shared humanity that we share, we believe or are led to believe, with people in far away lands with some diverse customs They are beautiful; but they seem to ignore the real world, here and now— or there and December 28, 2018. The Satyajit Ray film were from 1955 and 1959.
By the way, Gandhi did not actually say “be the change you wish to see in the world “. It was Palo Altan Gary Lapid of Project Victory And he was paraphrasing an anecdote about the leader being asked by a mom to help convince her son to stop eating sugar snacks.

edit to add: Jamie Stewart as a duo called Xiu Xiu posted a performance of a unique version of ZZ Top “Sharp Dressed Man” which set me to nostalgizing about The Cubberley Sessions at Palo Alto from 1994-2001 and Jamie’s role in it, and his role in the Palo Alto scene in that era, which was considerable. He had some miscellaneous relationship with KZSU and maybe the University. I first heard of him thanks to their dj Glenn Smith who sat in with IBOPA. IBOPA played my series in support of Oxbow I think (and Idiot Flesh) but also with Marginal Prophets. Ten in the Swear Jar (XITSJ) was his vehicle for a while there; I saw them but never booked them. Likewise Xiu Xiu — named for the saddest movie in the world — whose fame peaked after I went on hiatus as a promoter. I did catch up to Jamie and Xiu Xiu at Tonic in NYC.
I hit Jamie by email and he wrote me write back so who knows, maybe I will do a show with him or them or it.
Also, I remember talking to Jamie the day Allen Ginsberg died and he suggested that there should be a concert spontaneoulsy forming in reaction, perhaps at Lytton Plaza then known as Burger King Plaza.
Since I’m processing the Beats anew recently I should ask Jamie what he thinks.
(There’s also a Jamie Stewart Nina Simone vehicle that features among others Mary Halverson)
(There’s also a Jamie Stewart Eugene Robinson Oxbow thing that references Sal Mineo — movie star, played in Rebel Without a Cause, maybe died young; I also saw a weird book, on sale at Beat Museum, called “The Delinquent the Beat and The Square” or something from about 1960 on an obscure Christian Press or put out by a church that Sal Mineo contributed to that tried to argue against the Beats and convert young hip people back to being squares. Which leads to a wonder about Huey Lewis “Hip to Be Square” did it reference the Beats.
Indestructible Beat of Palo Alto references South Africa but maybe it can be reprised as Indestructible Beats of Palo Alto referencing Beatitude.
Jamie also had a thing about AIDS virus and “hives” which predates rock band of same blame.
This is a black guy name Dew Hines from England and he influence Florence and the machine?

I saw Mindy Kaling in Matt and Ben at PS something something, when she was just a funny Dartmouth alarm in the arts and not a big star. I grabbed recently her first memoir from one of those little mini library is in front of my neighbors house and flipped to the pages about her undergraduate days and learned that she was a cartoonist for the D. Then responding to my quarry a Dartmouth editor named Zachary Benjamin sent me a JPEG with an example of her work. I think it’s pretty funny. It has to do with Dartmouth from the point of view of a dog who is a mascot of a fraternity.
Meanwhile I thought of in reaction my high school classmate marsh McCall, Who was a writer for Conan iO’Brien and a writer producer for “just shoot me” and many other shows. When he was hired for television after previously being a columnist for the Palo Alto Times Tribune I made a little chapbook from our high school newspaper his cartoons and sent it around.
He had a character Named Shep. In one episode Shep was smoking a cigarette and the vice principal in charge of discipline saw him and said “ take that thing out of your mouth
