We should do another staged readings, this time A-to-Z of LAMI cast or celebrity readers!
As I was trying to explain:
Alden Van Buskirk Was a student of Jack Hirschman at Dartmouth or a friend of his – before Hirschman got drummed out of the IVs and then out of academia for being a communist -Who died of a rare blood disease shortly after enrolling in grad school at Washington of St. Louis —Interestingly if you excuse the digression while in St. Louis he introduced his friend Peter Kushner from Dartmouth a hard scientist to Pinky his fellow literature grad student and they fell in love and had a daughter named Rachel Kushner who is now a rising star novelist Mars room telex from Cuba flamethrowers etc.— And Matt Gonzalez, who I met at a fundraiser for my friend and client Beth Custer in San Francisco who is both a former city of San Francisco supervisor and gallery-worthy visual artist Mentioned to me at Smith Andersen Gallery in Palo Alto —where I met my future wife the visual artist Terry Acebo Davis —That while at Dartmouth his friend Hirschman had an interesting student who died tragically young. And when I found the work called LAMI Which is a rare book but beautifully printed by soon to be famous publisher name Andrew Hoyem – At the insistence of Allen Ginsberg who literally called and cajoled people to publish the works in various journals— I noticed that some of them were dated 1961 and since it was 2010 I thought for 2011 we should do a 50th anniversary of LAMI. So there was a reading and a bit of a party and someone filmed it but it is sort of labeled the 50th anniversary of his death – true, but not my intention.
Notes, 1, I hope somebody invites Mrs. Brunenberg a stalwart of the board who only recently left the board; 2, Agenda miss spells the family name as “Toby,”. 3, I wonder if the former residence of this house are related to the young dancer I met in Santa Fe by the name of Zabadaba Tobey or something; She said she had Palo Alto relatives; I think she was a student at Warren Smith College in North Carolina the arts school. 4, PAST 
I am about as low tech as one can be without being physically removed, 86, from Palo Alto, but living here he learn to bluff your way through cocktail and coffeehouse conversations about tech. I’ve heard of Oracle, this is going to be bigger and better and it’s closer to home if you like I do live in downtown North. I don’t play the stock market but if I had bought this at it IPO I could’ve tripled my money. In 1986 I was an intern at the ad agency that handled worlds of wonder and I had been reading a David Ogilvy book about how you should use your clients product which I interpreted as I should buy 200 shares at seven dollars because naturally you would go back to whatever it was trading at. I lost all my money once burned twice shy. I go back to my dog walk.
Snd1: yesterday on Emerson Street a man came out of the door marked “DT“ I asked him what it meant he said something about “data serum“ and I asked him if you knew the term for medical hallucination “delirium tremens” what is noteworthy is this is next to Max the smoke shop which I think it was a place to buy a magazine or the news, but they also sell a little glass pipes which in theory can be used for alternative states of consciousness. I’m jest saying.
No, it’s cool; I do it too. But when I first started producing concerts in 1994, which was before we had cell phones, with video, I banned recording devices from the shows on the grounds that a, I wanted people to experience the gig with their own senses in real time, and b, I didn’t like people being blocked in their view.
