Emma has a well developed sense of humour …. as we all know by now, so your Thompsonesque parody was bound to be misunderstood Genie.
Emma – he’s lying … Peter Stringfellow really is dead. He died suddenly last night in one of his strip clubs from a broken neck ….. when his mullet got caught in the swing doors.
He was a marvellous and kind man and was well known for giving presents to total strangers that he met in internet chat rooms. RIP Mr Mullet.
(Now THAT is Thompsonesque !!!).
I shall out-thompsanesque you if it kills me…here goes…
“I sit here inside an oxygen bubble having learned of the death of an icon, images of a blonde mullet and day glo thong fill my brain. Some say the CIA is involved, while others merely blame a disgruntled stripper strangling him with a pair of nylons. Whoever is to blame, a nation mourns. George Bush Senior was seen loitering around Stringfellows in the early hours, rumoured to have caught the clap from a stripper known as “Maggie”, he is a possible suspect in what is being hailed as “The murder of the century”.

Madness.
Peter Stringfellow isn’t really dead Emma, i was making it up in some pseudo homage to Hunter S. Thompson and gonzo journalism and i deduce from what you have said that its ok to make fun out of him as he isn’t really dead, because i can see why making fun of another human being is worse when they are alive and can personally be affected by it than when they are dead and cannot (sarcasm intended).
Seriously though Peter Stringfellow is alive and well as is his mullet.
“L’Amour Est un Chien de l’Enfer” was a good film, but like every single movie adapted from Bukowski, falls short of the intention of the written text. I mean Deruddere blatantly tries to romanticise the necrophilic third act by only having harry have sex with the corpse whilst his mate is horrified and then having harry make the corpse his wife, whereas in the short story that section is based on both men have sex with the body and then casually dump it in a river…true Bukowski.
The recent “Factotum” for example fell short of the mark in many ways, Matt Dillon playing the role alone betrays the book as both Bukowski and Chinaski, his alter-ego are always ugly, dishevelled, squalid etc in appearance. “L’Amour Est un Chien de l’Enfer” does go along with this in the second act with the teenager being riddled with acne and in the third section by the character being scarred both physically and emmotionally as a result. Mickey Rourke in “Barfly” probably came closest to the Chinaski of the novels but the film fell short in other ways ie hammy acting and mainly by being so obviously in awe of Bukowski that both Rourke and Schroeder failed to actually get across that Chinaski isn’t only a bum but also a complete arsehole emmotionally and to others. Now “Tales of Ordinary Madness” did present Bukowski this way, the using of women for sex etc, but Gazzara and Ferreri failed in the exact way “Barfly” worked. Ultimately it seems to me that Bukowski is now so reverred and admired (rightfully so) by these filmmakers and actors that it makes a truly great adaptation impossible.
“L’Amour Est un Chien de l’Enfer” is well worth watching as a film but not as a Bukowski adaptation, Bukowski simply has to be read or listened to in the case of his poetry. I heard a great recording he did himself called “Far From the Maddening Drunk Crowd” replete with background noise from his windows of drunks fighting and i have to suggest “Ham on Rye” as the book everyone must read.

Lol butt seriously……….her son died a few months ago, while visiting her in the hospitial, just after she had given birth…at that time Anna’s mom was on the tv warning her she could be next! Now the baby is in the Bahamas..who knows where all the fathers are..and what about poor Zsa Zsa sat there in her wheel chair watching Prince Fred confess to a ten year affair with Anna………..the plot thickens!
I did hear a rumour that Zsa Zsa Gabor had been caught on a hidden camera discussing a plot to murder Anna Nicole with a bottle of bollinger laced with arsenic, maybe the CIA are involved like with Castro…hmmmmmmmmm the plot thickens.

Did anyone see Zsa Zsa Gabor’s husband on t.v claiming he could be the father of Anna Nicole’s baby. This whole story is getting more and more bizarre.
I actually think the father of anna nicole smiths kid is george bush senior, rumours are abound that they enjoyed a threesome with dick cheney in afghanistan, George Bush was rumoured to have said he was going to blow up anna nicole with his smart missile whilst cheney was bringing up the rear. I don’t know if there is any truth to this, but her kid does resemble George Bush Senior. Personally i think anna nicole smith is george bush juniors mum, you heard it here first, hahahaha.
I thought the meaning of life was polyvinyl chloride.
