My son just asked
me what the book I was reading was about. This turned out to be a
rather
tough question since the book I was reading was Italo Calvino's If
On
a Winter's Night a Traveler. I simply handed him the book and
told
him to read the
first chapter, but if I had dared to attempt an answer,
here's what
I would have been obligated to tell him...
Italo Calvino's If On a
Winter's Night a Traveler is about you, the person reading
Italo Calvino's
If
On a Winter's Night a Traveler, and chapter one is concerned
with nothing
more than your preparations for reading the book. "It's not that you
expect
anything in particular from this particular book. You're the sort of
person
who, on principle, no longer expects anything of anything," we are told
about ourselves.
The
next chapter, actually
chapter two, is chapter one of Italo Calvino's
If on a Winter's Night
a Traveler, which begins like this: "The novel begins in a
railway
station, a locomotive huffs, steam from a piston covers the opening of
the chapter, a cloud of smoke hides part of the first paragraph."
Chapter two, actually chapter
three, is about you again. After finishing chapter one of Italo
Calvino's
If
on a Winter's Night a Traveler, you discover to your horror
that you've
purchased a misprint, and that the volume consists of nothing more than
the first chapter printed over and over.
You
go back to the bookstore
to trade it in for a good copy but the book is sold out. Luckily,
there's
someone else there returning their bad copy, which consists of nothing
but another chapter reprinted over and over. You start reading their
copy
only to discover that it's a chapter from a different book.
The
next chapter is chapter
one of Outside the Town of Malbork, which has
absolutely nothing
to do with Italo Calvino's If on a Winter's Night a Traveler
except
for the fact that you, the lead character in Italo Calvino's If
on a
Winter's Night a Traveler, are reading it.
The
rest of the book alternates
between your quest to get to the bottom of the mystery of Italo
Calvino's
If
on a Winter's Night a Traveler and individual chapters of all
the other
volumes you find, none of which have anything whatsoever to do with one
another. Along the way you ruminate on the nature of the relationship
between
author and reader while falling in love with the fellow traveler you
met
in the bookstore. By the time you read a chapter from Leaning
from the
Steep Slope, a Hitchcockeyed thriller in which an innocent
man gets
caught up in a jail break, a chapter that ends on a moment of tension
that
makes you really want to find out what happens next, you, the actual
reader
of Italo Calvino's If on a Winter's Night a Traveler,
are just as
frustrated as you, the main character in Italo Calvino's
If on a Winter's
Night a Traveler.
Most of us take the actual
act of reading for granted, so it's fascinating and illuminating to
read
something that's about nothing more than the actual act of reading, in
which the author shares with you the force of creation in the ultimate
look at the man behind the curtain. This isn't a book that allows you
to
lose yourself in another world. You never, for one single second, can
forget
that what you are doing is reading Italo Calvino's If on a
Winter's
Night a Traveler.
Might I mention that this
book is never going to get made into a movie? Since the main character
is you, no particular actor can play the part. You can't wait for the
Tom
Cruise version. If you want to experience Italo Calvino's If
on a Winter's
Night a Traveler, you're just going to have to read it
because it is
more a 100% pure reading experience than just about any other book ever
written. If M.C. Escher were a novelist, he would have written just
such
a tour de force. It breaks absolutely every rule of civilized writing.
I am in awe of this book, one of the most thought provoking imaginable,
an unqualified masterpiece that I recommend whole-heartedly despite the
fact that, as John Updike says, it is "a scheme designed to frustrate
all
reasonable readerly expectations."
The same can be said of Twenty
Bucks, a film from 1992 that has just been released on DVD.
In a multiple
plot that is strangely similar to one that has passed through the brain
of every screenwriter who has ever lived, the film simply chronicles
the
life of a twenty dollar bill from its start at an ATM to its ultimate
demise
as a sorry wreck of a bill to be burned by a bank.
Give that assignment to 100
writers and they'll all come up with completely different stories, so
what's
our criteria for judging this one? Does it touch rich and poor,
generous
and greedy, does it pass through the hands of those who barely notice
vs.
those whose lives it alters, does it get shoved up someone's nose
snorting
coke and eaten by a fish, does the film in its grand scheme elucidate
man's
relationship to money in a way that entertains and enlightens. Yes on
all
counts.
Twenty
Bucks wasn't a hit,
perhaps because, by it's very nature as a series of short stories, it
doesn't
have a single main character but a series of main characters who barely
have ten minutes of screen time apiece. Luckily, they're all played by
fantastic actors, among them Linda Hunt, Brendan Fraser, Elisabeth
Shue,
Steve Buscemi, Christopher Lloyd, Spalding Gray, William H. Macy, and
Gladys
Night without the Pips, each of whom you want to spend more time with,
thus, to misquote John Updike, the film is "a scheme designed to
frustrate
all reasonable cinematic expectations," which is perhaps another reason
you've never heard of it.
Originally written in
the 50s by Endre
Bohem
(Gunsmoke, Rawhide), it was rewritten by his son, Leslie
Bohem (A Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Child, Taken, The
Alamo,
bass player with Sparks!), after his father's death in 1990. Keva
Rosenfeld
did a spectacular job of directing, and the next time a twenty dollar
bill
passes through your hands, your mind is sure take you through a journey
of your own version of this film.
"The only
obligation to which in advance
we may hold a novel, without incurring the accusation of being
arbitrary,
is that it be interesting."

July 4, 2005A confidential report to the Chairman of the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the honorable Kenneth Y. Tomlinson, on the influence of left-wing liberalism in PBS television programming. A brief summation of detected liberal bias in PBS programming. Sesame Street: Part of the name of this program comes from an Arab Muslim saying meaning "open the cave." Almost all Arab Muslims are terrorists who hate America, so this is clearly an inappropriate title for a children's show. Reading Rainbow: "Rainbow" is a liberal code word for gay pride and acceptance of the homosexual lifestyle. Unfit for children or adults. Teletubbies: A gay front group trying to hide their homosexual agenda of turning the nation's children into limp-wristed sodomites by pretending to be aliens from another planet. We must not be fooled. Scientific American Frontiers: Presents information at odds with the truth of Intelligent Design. Science is held out as the answer to mankind's problems, rather than praying to a Christian God. Host Alan Alda is a card-carrying Hollywood pinko liberal. New Scandinavian Cooking: Most Scandinavian countries are run by socialist left-wing governments who favor drug use and pornography. PBS should not be promoting these warped anti-American nations. Cooking with Jacques Pepin: Pepin is obviously French. Need I say more? Barbeque University: Noted that they used the grill to cook shish-kebobs, which are among the favorite foods of our Arab Muslim terrorist enemies. Rick Steve's Europe: My God, the man's praising Old Europe! This Old House: Why aren't they promoting taking advantage of the Bush Administration's low interest rates and buying new houses instead of fixing old ones? The McLaughlin Group: Discovered a flaming liberal on the panel, Eleanor Clift. She must be removed to restore balance to the show. The Yankee Workshop: Host often talks about "getting wood" which is a code word in the homosexual community for the male penile erection. Other such code words noted: "screw," "pound," "drill," "nut' and "nailed." Nova: Science programming that is contrary to God's irrefutable law as established in the Holy Bible. On a recent episode, they claimed the Grand Canyon was millions of years old when we know it cannot be older than 6,000 years and caused by the Great Flood that only Noah's Ark survived. Nature: Frequently features programs dealing with the disgusting habits of easily-identifiable liberal animals such as the lizard, snake and woodpecker, and left-wing insects, such as the cockroach and dung beetle. More shows on manly and conservative lions, bulls, eagles, wasps, worker bees and army ants would help balance this presentation. Mystery!: The British actors who appear on this show don't seem to be the sort who would support Prime Minister Tony Blair and his efforts, with President Bush's bold and firm leadership, to bring freedom and democracy to the people of Iraq. Many of them also sound very homosexual with their English accents. Frontline: Liberal leftist anti-government propaganda, pure and simple. The producers of this show should be sent to Guantanamo for intense interrogation. NOW with David Brancaccio: A front for the international communist conspiracy. Suggest firing Brancaccio and hiring Michael Savage as host to bring unbiased balance to this broadcast. Copyright 2005 R.S. Janes.

Celebrate Albert Hoffman
Day! Ride a bicycle! Mike mate Answer: You betcha.
It looks to me as though
Allen's piece is computer
generated with sayings taken from some unknown source. I Googled 'Na'j
wetz comedian' and came up empty - imagine that - so I would guess that
the phrases were taken individually from some database. "He who puts up
with insult invites injury" is a Jewish proverb, and I believe "Arm
yourselves,
and be ye men of valor" is Churchill. If I had to guess, I'd say the
source
is the gnu archive. I think he was talking
about Mars being as big as
the moon on August 27th It's not meant to be a

which, you completely ruined my last Stupid Answer
by omitting the
bold and the italics. I bet you do it for this one too. Nick,
Other Letters Your stupid question of
the week [two weeks ago]
was definitely stupid. Impeachment does not mean to remove from office.
It simply means to bring charges against. Clinton was impeached. Did
his
ass get removed from office? No! They only brought charges against him
for obstruction of justice. So, if George Bush were to be impeached
(for
what, I don't know), he would still be president and Cheney would still
be hiding in a bunker somewhere. (It scares me that none of your
audience,

27 to New Hampshire media Weare, New Hampshire (PRWEB) Could a hotel be built on the land owned by Supreme Court Justice David H. Souter? A new ruling by the Supreme Court which was supported by Justice Souter himself itself might allow it. A private developer is seeking to use this very law to build a hotel on Souter's land. Justice Souter's vote in the "Kelo vs. City of New London" decision allows city governments to take land from one private owner and give it to another if the government will generate greater tax revenue or other economic benefits when the land is developed by the new owner. On Monday June 27, Logan Darrow Clements, faxed a request to Chip Meany the code enforcement officer of the Towne of Weare, New Hampshire seeking to start the application process to build a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road. This is the present location of Mr. Souter's home. Clements, CEO of Freestar Media, LLC, points out that the City of Weare will certainly gain greater tax revenue and economic benefits with a hotel on 34 Cilley Hill Road than allowing Mr. Souter to own the land. The proposed development, called "The Lost Liberty Hotel" will feature the "Just Desserts Café" and include a museum, open to the public, featuring a permanent exhibit on the loss of freedom in America. Instead of a Gideon's Bible each guest will receive a free copy of Ayn Rand's novel "Atlas Shrugged." Clements indicated that the hotel must be built on this particular piece of land because it is a unique site being the home of someone largely responsible for destroying property rights for all Americans. "This is not a prank" said Clements, "The Towne of Weare has five people on the Board of Selectmen. If three of them vote to use the power of eminent domain to take this land from Mr. Souter we can begin our hotel development." Clements' plan is to raise investment capital from wealthy pro-liberty investors and draw up architectural plans. These plans would then be used to raise investment capital for the project. Clements hopes that regular customers of the hotel might include supporters of the Institute For Justice and participants in the Free State Project among others.

"When things get so balled up
that the people of a country have to cut loose from some other country,
and go it on their own hook, without asking no permission from nobody,
excepting maybe God Almighty, then they ought to let everybody know why
they done it, so that everybody can see they are on the level, and not
trying to put nothing over on nobody. "And I say that if
a rhetorician and a physician
were to go to any city, and had there to argue in the Ecclesia or any
other
assembly as to which of them should be elected state-physician, the
physician
would have no chance; but he who could speak would be chosen if he
wished;
and in a contest with a man of any other profession the rhetorician
more
than any one would have the power of getting himself chosen, for he can
speak more persuasively to the multitude than any of them, and on any
subject.
Such is the nature and power of the art of rhetoric."
"Announcing the staging
of a series of concerts named Live 8, which will precede the G8 summit
in Scotland, Sir Bob said: 'It is intellectually absurd that people die
of want in a world of surplus.' Which again sounds good but completely
misses the point. "In the United
States, doing good has come
to be, like patriotism, a favorite device of persons with something to
sell." "Capitalism is a
philosophy of failure, the
creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy. Capitalism leads to the
enslavement
of the sheep citizens by the greedy, selfish plutocratic class."

popular cold remedies in Riverside County would be required to give
their
names, addresses, and telephone and driver's license numbers to store
clerks
for law enforcement inspection under a sweeping rule aimed at illicit
production
of Methamphetamine... "Yeah,
we all know that major
Methamphetamine manufacturers buy their ingredients one at a time at
K-Mart." "President
Bush on Tuesday retooled
his original argument for the Iraq war, justifying the U.S. military
presence
there as the solution to a problem that critics say the war itself
caused." "Patriotism in its
simplest, clearest and most
indubitable signification is nothing else but a means of obtaining for
the rulers their ambitions and covetous desires, and for the ruled the
abdication of human dignity, reason, conscience, and a slavish
enthrallment
to those in power."
"Although continued attempts
are being made to establish access to the President of Iraq who has
been
held without access to a lawyer, only one meeting has been arranged
more
than one year after the detention began. This meeting took place with
one
of the lawyers of Committee under strict monitoring (both visual and
audio)
whereby two US military officials were present at all times. This
meeting
was not under conditions that meet the minimum standards for access to
legal counsel provided by international law (e.g. in article 14 of the
ICCPR). Neither has this meeting been followed up with additional
meetings.
It is estimated that counsel need at least several hours of daily
contact
with their client to be able to consult with him and to facilitate the
preparation of his defense. Unless such access is immediately provided
all charges against the defendant should be dropped because of the
serious
violations of his human rights.
"You may remember that in
2002, the year before the Iraq War began, the United Nations Security
Council
ordered Iraq to produce a report detailing all of its biological,
chemical,
and nuclear weapons - past and present. Iraqi officials complied and
produced
an 11,800-page report on Iraq's weapons programs. The report described
all the chemical and biological weapons the country once had - where
they
came from and what was done with them - as well as what had happened to
Iraq's nuclear weapons program.
"Last week, the Supreme
Court ruled that police are not required to enforce restraining orders,
even if state law mandates that they do so.
"I trust that all of you
will agree with me that the national security of the United States is
at
issue here, not the right of journalists to protect sources under
'normal'
editorial circumstances. In this instance, a sitting President of the
United
States, via his top deputies, committed a major crime, solely out of
vengeance
against former Ambassador Joseph Wilson - Plame's husband - who had
publicly
noted Bush's deceit about 'significant quantities of uranium from
Africa
(Niger)' in his 2003 State of the Union Address in, ironically, a New
York
Times op-ed piece. "No person shall
be...deprived of life, liberty
or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be
taken for public use without just compensation." "There is an
important topic barely mentioned
in the Kelo opinion: The second of the two Fifth Amendment
prerequisites
to a taking of private property through eminent domain powers: the
payment
of 'just compensation.' The court seems to assume that all the property
owners involved in this and other, similar cases, will get paid 'just
compensation.'
Nothing could be further from the truth... "I have not and do
not intend to announce the
timetable for our program. And there are obvious reasons for this
decision
which I am sure you will understand. As I have indicated on several
occasions,
the rate of withdrawal will depend on developments."
"If we don't
change direction soon, we'll end
up where we're going." "Walking the
spiritual path is a very subtle
process; it is not something to jump into naively. There are numerous
sidetracks
which lead to a distorted, ego-centered version of spirituality; we can
deceive ourselves into thinking we are developing spiritually when
instead
we are strengthening our egocentricity through spiritual techniques."
"The cloning of
humans is on most of the lists
of things to worry about from Science, along with behaviour control,
genetic
engineering, transplanted heads, computer poetry and the unrestrained
growth
of plastic flowers." "It took me
fifteen years to discover that
I had no talent for writing, but I couldn't give it up because by that
time I was too famous." "People who have
no weaknesses are terrible;
there is no way of taking advantage of them." "Before time was
counted, long before the appearance
of man, the gods and the demons put aside their eternal battles for a
moment,
and collaborated in churning the ocean of milk for the nectar of
immortality.
When this nectar was finally produced, and before any of the demons
save
one could taste it, the son of the chief of the gods stole the vessel
or
kumbh, containing the nectar and took off in the sky chased by just
about
everyone. During his flight four drops fell to earth. Those places
where
the drops fell are still today considered among the holiest of all
pilgrimage
spots in India. They are Hardwar, Prayag (Allahabad), Ujjain and
Trambak
(Nasik). At those times of Jupiter's return in the heavens to its
position
when each drop was spilled in each locality, a Kumbh Mela is held for
at
least 30 days. During this period, there are several auspicious times,
based on the sky, for religious bathing, ritual, and most important,
initiation.
This is by far the largest gathering of human beings on earth. On the
most
auspicious bathing day in Prayag, 1995, sixteen and a half million
people
gathered at the confluence of the Ganges and Yamuna Rivers for a holy
bath,
and over 45 million people visited the place over a 30-day period. In
Haridwar,
1998, over 8 million pilgrims bathed in a single day." "I say this
frankly, I say it without exaggeration.
It must be said, and I am the most likely bloke, as they say, who will
say it: The President of the United States, George W. Bush, is
clinically
insane. He is not only clinically insane, but he's clinically insane in
ways which have rendered him technically impeachable. When the
President
of the United States, a United States whose dollar is still the
denominator
of the world monetary system, says not once, but repeatedly, and
reasserts
it defiantly against all criticism, that U.S. government bonds are
merely
IOUs which are intrinsically worthless, that man is clinically insane.
He is irresponsible. Because, if anybody believes him, that the policy
of the United States government is that its bonds are worthless, with
the
amount of dollar obligations outstanding around the world, as an
integral
part of the monetary system, the system is doomed by the fact alone."
"Every crowd has a
silver lining." "Let's kick their
ass and get the Hell out
of here." "A witty saying
proves nothing." "Tradition is what
you resort to when you don't
have the time or the money to do it right." "It is better to
deserve honors and not have
them than to have them and not deserve them." "It is impossible
to enjoy idling thoroughly
unless one has plenty of work to do." "You can't make up
anything anymore. The world
itself is a satire. All you're doing is recording it."
"Summer vacation is a powerful
anachronism that dates back to agrarian days, when farm families needed
young people home during the summer months to replace the three R's
with
the two P's - plantin' and pickin'. Today, now that fewer family farms
remain and agricultural mechanization is standard, students need to be
harvesting knowledge year-round.
"After more than four years
of fighting the Bush Administration's efforts to pollute good science
with
politics, I thought I'd heard it all. Then I learned how they were
deciding
to test new pesticides. "The cry has been
that when war is declared,
all opposition should therefore be hushed. A sentiment more unworthy of
a free country could hardly be propagated. If the doctrine be admitted,
rulers have only to declare war and they are screened at once from
scrutiny." "Anytime a person
goes into a delicatessen
and orders a pastrami on white bread, somewhere a Jew dies."
"The press does
not want to inform the reader
but to persuade him he's being informed." "Support for the
Iraq war is at an all-time
low, and some Republicans blame the media and its '24/7 news coverage
of
car bombs,' which 'tends to leave a certain impression.' You know,
that's
so true. You never hear about the cars that DON'T blow up."
"One who is not
acquainted with the designs
of his neighbors should not enter into alliances with them."
"God builds his
temple in the heart on the
ruins of churches and religions."
"A new survey of wind power
around the globe has found there's ample energy for all humanity
blowing
around us. "How many
thousands of cards would you need
to store a typical MP3, anyway? Hmmm... 3 minutes of music at 1 MB per
minute is 3 MB. A standard ('IBM') punch card holds 80 columns of 12
bits
each or 120 bytes. So 25,000 cards should be sufficient for a single
song.
With compression, you could reduce that by about zero percent."
"A friend of mine
is stationed in Iraq and is totally flipping out. Can you possibly
guess
why? Maybe he's tired of following orders that routinely involve
blowing
up babies? Well, for whatever reason, the doctors there are trying to
feed
him anti-psychotic medications. '"A bottle of pills is their answer to
everything over here,' he e-mailed me. "You can stand
tall without standing on someone.
You can be a victor without having victims." "Adopt the pace of
nature, her secret is patience." "The same stream

"[T]he living world is shot
through with imperfection. Unless one wants to attribute either
incompetence
or sheer malevolence to such a designer, this imperfection —
the manifold
design flaws of life — points incontrovertibly to a natural,
rather than
a divine, process, one in which living things were not created de
novo, but
evolved. Consider the human body. Ask yourself, if you were designing
the
optimum exit for a fetus, would you engineer a route that passes
through
the narrow confines of the pelvic bones? Add to this the tragic reality
that childbirth is not only painful in our species but downright
dangerous
and sometimes lethal, owing to a baby's head being too large for the
mother's
birth canal.

"Blogger Andrew Sullivan
coined the term 'South Park Republicans' and described them as people
who
'believe we need a hard-ass foreign policy and are extremely skeptical
of political correctness.' Anderson claims he found such people. 'Talk
to right-leaning college students,' he writes, 'and it's clear that
Sullivan
may be on to something.' He quotes an Arizona State undergrad who
describes
what being a South Park conservative entails: 'The label is really
about
rejecting the image of conservatives as uptight squares - crusty old
men
or nerdy kids in blue blazers. We might have long hair, smoke
cigarettes,
get drunk on weekends, have sex before marriage, watch R-rated movies,
cuss like sailors - and also happen to be conservative, or at least
libertarian.' "The
administration should clarify its intent
in Viet Nam. People lack confidence in the credibility of our
government.
Even our allies are beginning to suspect what we say. It's a difficult
thing today to be informed about our government even without all the
secrecy.
With the secrecy, it's impossible. The American people will do what's
right
when they have the information they need."
"In World War II, the Italians
lost civilians at about the same rate as Iraq is losing Iraqis now. The
war there lasted just over six years. Waging it, on the part of the
Allies,
was a key element in a strategy that succeeded in unseating three
dictators,
among them Hitler. The war in Iraq will lead to no comparable world
victory
and so will never have been worth the lives civilian and military that
it is taking. "While there has
been measurable progress in
Colombia's internal security, as indicated by decreases in violence,
and
in the eradication of drug crops, no effect has been seen with regard
to
price, purity and availability of cocaine and heroin in the United
States." "The Bush
administration and congressional
allies are gearing up to renew a plan for drug eradication in Latin
America
despite some grim news: The $5.4 billion spent on the plan since 2000
has
made no dent in the availability of cocaine on American streets and
prices
are at all-time lows." "Generosity, kind
words, "Anger that has no
limit, causes terror. Kindness
that is inappropriate, does away with respect. So do not be so severe
with
others, as to terrify them; and do not be so lenient with others, as to
make them take advantage of you." "And that's the
world in a nutshell, an appropriate
receptacle." Everything Else Ever seen an ad and said to yourself, damn, I could come up with something better than that?

Acknowledgment
dIsInFoTaInMeNt ToDaY consists of information from dozens of sources, cut up, thrown in the air, and recycled randomly. It is sent all over the place, so I apologize if you're seeing the same thing twice. If you see a joke, graphic, or news item that came from or through you, thanks, send more, and please accept the fact that much of dIsInFoTaInMeNt ToDaY is unacknowledgeable, and if I sought permission from everyone whose bastardized material showed up here, I'd never get anything else done. Please note that I don't even put my own name on it. If you're still pissed off, hey, it's fair use.
Thanks,
Mike Literous
