'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, Calli, the way they describe it, it sounds OK, and I always go to my parents' on Sundays, so I figure I can bring them extras/stuff I don't like. We'll see!
Perkins, I know the reason I am so sleepy is because my cat has been sleeping on/next to me ALL DAY. He usually spends a while in the bedroom.
Sophia, it looks like Googling "beat movement" or "beat generation" might get you better results.
And Wikipedia has a pretty decent list of Beat generation writers; if you do a Google image search by specific names you'll probably come up with something usable.
And, megan, can you stand to add one more name to the recipe recipient list?
My cat got her teeth cleaned today. She'll be sleeping tonight after I get her back from the vet on my way home, after she eats dinner, that is. She was pissed that I took away her food last night, and I had to close her out of the bedroom, otherwise she would have kept me awake all night long with her bitching about it right in my ear.
Can anyone think a movie where someone was a beatnik, or an actual beatnik?
Responding to my ringing ears...There are a bunch of beatnik exploitation movies. (And here we'll distinguish between actual Beats and the caricature of them which is the beatnik.)
View the Beatsville gallery for illustrations.
Movies: The Beat Generation; High School Confidential (two beatniks, one being a gal Phillipa Fallon, the other being Drew Barrymore's dad); the Corman b-movie Bucket of Blood; The Bloody Brood (with Peter Falk!);
Here's a list of Beatnik movies.
Two more? sueozon @ gmail.com
Someone on my street mostly likes me. When I arroved home, my part of the sidewalk was cleared, except for the last 8 feet. I don't know if they ran out of gas or thought the plow who does my neighbor's driveway would get the rest.
Stupid plow may have just filled in part of the sidewalk. Stuipid plow!!
megan, I'd love to get in on the slow cooker recipe list!

I really have NO CLUE. Most years, we get them something big--like a nice gas grill or deck furniture. But this year, they don't need anything and they don't have hobbies per se. Why did I wait until the last minute?
Oooh! Get them a _____ of the month. Fruit or flowers or maybe meat. I've always wanted one of those.
My brother got me fruit of the month one year. It was really fun.
