What kind of The Idiot reads a 93-page transcript of a public hearing as literature then attempts to critique it like it was Henry Roth ‘Call it Sleep’ in Blanche Gelfant’s class?

  1. https://www.amazon.com/Idiot-Bantam-Classic-Fyodor-Dostoevsky/dp/0553213520
  3. The lines of each page, of a double-side printed document, are numbered, i.e. 1 thru 37 and footnotes, but the pages are NOT, so I had to hand-count.
  4. There are redacted, or “wild card” parts, behind a half-tone-type screen, i.e. highlighted but labeled, or as part of the text per se “unintelligible”. I’m only 5 minutes into what might take 5 hours, but that’s my working title or subhead or bluf ‘unintelligible.”
  5. I left an art opening, a party with free alcohol and beautiful people, at at real gallery and with a real, internationally known artist, to be at their meeting last night. I stayed for 90 minutes, leaving so as to meet my wife for dinner (she made short-ribs in the slow-cooker). That meeting is searchable or available, or ripe for the picking by some crazy post-modernist literary scholar, as a video-document and apparently, if the pattern holds, in about a month as a transcript and minutes.
  6. Not sure if they amend minutes. I saw a basic syntax error, last night: to for two or something. (as compared to 0 for 4 here to fore, or here so far). What I mean to say, and somehow I am hearing the quaint-non-stammer of James Melville Cox or Foghorn Leghorn, is this is the previous meeting.
  7. I spoke twice at last night’s meeting, but not on the agenda item I was most interested in, which was continued. One, during oral communications I spoke about soccer, and a fond memory of my first meal at Olive Garden, in Minneapolis or St. Paul twin cities, with the Palo Alto Firebirds soccer team, in 1993. Two, apropos of the new housing element of the new Palo Alto Comp Plan, and following the lead of people like Rebecca Sanders, Jeff Levinsky and Joe Hirsh, I said something about a new project on Wiltern or Wilton in South Palo Alto or Ventura but not the new zone called North Ventura. I guess this is South Ventura. I used to live nearby, I explained, in a rental on Pepper, which is North of North Ventura but not California Avenue or California Avenue -Ventura. There was an art gallery, and print show. There was a sports bar (formerly a dive bar) in a quonset hut. I also once lived, but failed to state, in my mere three minutes, in nearby North Barron Park, on Chimalus, the north side of street, even numbers, which is not quite College Terrace or Stanford Industrial Park or Stanford Research Park, but is nearby as the crow (but hopefully not Airborne Toxic Event) flies or floats

  9. In my little speech which was unrehearsed I failed to mention that as a concert promoter I booked Blink 182 the pop punk band, literally THE pop punk band, more so than Green Day, some have argued, on their first NorCal tour, into Cubberley Community Center Auditorium, i.e. the multipurpose room, i.e. the kitchen cafeteria and one-time library to be. They drew about 150 fans at $6 apiece (plus half price if you rode your bike, because it was Earth Day, April 22, 1997, “Earth Day Rock ‘n’ Bike we called it). It’s relevant and timely because same band recently headlined Live 105 BFD at Concord Pavillion (with 10 bands including War on Drugs) for 10,000 or more fans and have sold 30 million records. I’m saying I have a good ear for music and I’m trying to listen for good policy versus clams. That was my point, plus “Listen, to Jeff, Rebecca and Joe”.
  10. Here is my first attempt at the close reading part, my maiden voyage so to speak — I’ll change the characters name, for plausible deniability, to “Ms. Iceberg” if that is not too pejorative. There is a speech by her, or block of type in my version, the mediated pressing, that goes on for two-and-a-half pages, I’ll update with the actual page number but I guess its pp. 52-55 and 105 lines and by staff’s method eight paragraphs. It starts “Oh, you have a copy of my presentation as well…” It mentions the comp plan I think with a link four times. Five of the eight graphs start with “So,…”
  11. Even in my little diatribe last night I said with due respect we should get the contractors and consultatns to do good job and not, as Sadners and Asher said, oh shit, meant to give them, speydonums, prove a predetermined point of view.

Hai Bo Southern Series at Pace Palo Alto w. Sugimoto at DeYoung in SF a whiles back

Posted on May 31, 2018 by markweiss86
haibosouthernseries2018

I met Hai Bo thanks to the translater and Liz Sullivan of Pace Palo Alto yesterday

Hai Bo has a show, Southern Series, at Pace Gallery Palo Alto, near the Blue Trees of City Hall, on Hamilton.

I had one champagne, one half a white wine, and one beer before zipping over the the Palo Alto Planning and Transportation meeting. I was on bike,and dressed in bike gear. My version of such. (Maybe Megan of Drew Altchuler Photo caught me in full glory, not to be so vain but yes this song is about me, as David Shields reality hunger would argue).

Thru the trannie, (and not Thu Tran), I said that I preferred Hai Bo to Sugimoto because he made me happier but that it was unfair comparison because I had never met Sugimoto, who is ten years older than both of us and perhaps time will tell (that Hai Bo is as good or mo better).

I signed the log as Ma WeiWei in homage to Ai Wei Wei although my name is Weiss Mark.

Baseball. Soccer. Basketball. Big world. Closer. Same sun? Different moon. 1Q84. 2Q18.

andante:

Sugimoto show was at DeYoung in 2007. My favorite was Chryseller Bldg in NYC that was a bit blurry because the world turned. Speaking of which: goodbye Julian Cox from DeYoung seven lucky years now in Ontario Toronto not CA. (He’s a Brit, the rugby not football kind).

i hope to see this building in person, lord willing and the creek dont rise, again. this summer with muy wife Terry Acebo Davis the artist and former two-term commissioner

 

andand: Gallery Director Liz Sullivan looked very very almost Yao Ming tall more than Jeremy Lin in special fancy gallery lady shoes –I’d like to know what brand? So would my wife or the wife of famous Cisco internet exec from Norway Rune Oslund and his beauty wife Lilligul. Hello world friends!

Cincinnati Iron Man Daddies to join MLS

Posted on May 30, 2018 by markweiss86

It’s a cinch that the most popular Jersey among American soccer fans will be the Cincinnati Iron Man Daddies id designed by former Ohlone art teacher and Palo Altan Kenney Mencher, who got rather familiar with the Oh- hi-oh lingo and lore while a Bearcat grad student back in the Nineties.

 

edit to add, two years later, I am married now and orphaned and still totally straight but:

@Ryan Chen-
If you hit me via my blog or via the publishers of the Weekly, there is a man in my neighborhood who says he is straight but he gets commissions as an artist from gay people and he is good at painting burley, “bear” type males — I will pledge $1,000 if this local Palo Alto artist will do a mural in honor of LGBT rights on a building I inherited 8 percent of, downtown, with a wall — I can ask our GP for permission. The building is ribbed, so to speak, which might complicate the matter. I’d like to see more black art vertical, so to speak. On the walls here. I’m totally straight, too but I think all people are God’s children and we all deserve the same dignity and opportunity.
The artist is named K_____. Apropos of the Palo Alto Black Lives Matter mural, July, 2020

Lebo Motsoeli & Amir Gamal

B78ADCFC-8BFA-47CC-9D0A-0E1B11592DF6.jpegHe’s no Mo even so.

image.jpg I’m kind of in over my head here

Gamal was the club’s Man of the Match in their 4-2 win over hoodoo side Free State Stars two Saturdays ago in the opening round of the cup, scoring twice in an impressive display.

The article said he’s disgruntled in his south African club team because it has smaller crowds then his Egyptian club team and he is used to build playing with people like Moats Salah

edita.  I’m kind of going cuckoo over these World Cup stickers but this one of the Oregon why and goalie for Nando who plays for Galatas array in turkey which was the club team for her concert corner of Bryant Street get it (Uruguay, Fernando,   Galatasaray, Hakan Sukur)

Views from Clement’s pool deck early on Memorial Day, 2018

Posted on May 28, 2018 by markweiss86

064AB4BE-F793-47CD-9167-1204BD974DFB7EB205B2-F184-411A-8852-164260E7609003C629F0-5A20-4649-A63F-9BF8E4DC2A40BDB14522-42EB-4D5F-9EC6-BA874EE196EF89FBAD22-6A9C-4A10-926D-229B5B85F2A0AF0D0575-BE4F-4778-B1D2-085FC2AD6FE7When the plans were announced for a luxury hotel on El Camino next to Sheraton and Westin called Clement or The Clement I posted on a local website suggesting a baseball theme and the Pirates center fielder from Puerto Rico who died in a 1973 plane crash while delivering aid to earthquake victims in Managua, Nicaragua. I had Stayed  in a Musial themed hotel in St Louis.

It actually has a rock and roll theme due to the fact that Clement Chen III collects guitars and played in a rock band.

I didn’t know it had a pool on roof. It kinda reminded me of a photo I saved from a trip to Barcelona in 1987, maybe due to the tiles. Clement should host a soire to mark the 250 of Portola camping at El Palo Alto, 1769-2019. I’m the only one who realizes that the same year, next, is that and 125 of Palo Alto Incorporated. So our fair city is exactly half as old as our tree.

edit to add, backed with edita b/w:

I traded emails with Clement Chen the developer of many hotels including three in Palo Alto, Pacific hotel management LLC , and thanked him belatedly for his company holiday inn sponsoring in kind Palo Alto Firebird soccer team a semi pro team that created enthusiasm for soccer here in advance of the World Cup in 1994 thank you Dieter schultz  and Clement Chen
