I just took a quiz on Livejournal that says I'm 90% slut.

I am working on the other 10%

What does a Diener do exactly? I've only been to the morgue once and the autopsy room door was open so I didn't go any further. surreal

I didn't know sluts came in percentages. I always figured u either are or aren't one.

It's only February 2 (Go Groundhog) but it has been warm in Northern California.

I just saw the first cheeks of Spring

Sorry, got it now. Part of your job as a poet, right? wink

I love seeing films. If I had my way I would go once a week every week. And I'd go see more old stuff at the Rep theatres.

A friend of mine works for a small film distribution co, and they have a private screening room available in Soho house every Thursday. So tonight she has booked it out and invited all her friends. We're going to watch a Fellini film. It should be nice.

Hey Guys

I promise I will do this only one more time then never again.

As I posted a week ago I have sent my audition tape to Def Poetry Jam (on HBO). It is Always a longshot, no matter how good you are, to get on such things but I KNOW I'm good enough. It would help me CONSIDERABLY if there were some further...

The first two posters have come out for the show I'm hosting at Chico State University. I've already mentioned that they spelled my name "Kile" instead of "Kyle". Another thing on the same poster that is annoying me is the phrase

"The Youth Speaks Out"

not

Youth Speaks Out
or
The Youth Speak Out

So apparently we will have only one youth speaking out at...

Ah, to be pedantic and to actually care. I know how annoying that is.

Biscuits and gravy sounds weird, but I don't like eating chips with lasagna as it's weird too. It's like eating spaghetti with mash. Just not right. However I refuse to not have an item that I can leave on my plate in protest at the end of my meal if it's free. biggrin

I'll add that to my interesting and true philosophies of life. smile

They mispelled my name on the first posters for the chico state slam (I know of no one who spells it kile instead of kyle, but these people are getting a college education so they must know something I don't). I raised some hell about this and the later additions of the posters are going to be correct.

the cool. I am getting regular mentions...

Slammed Wednesday night. One of the poets who attends my open mic came to slam and competed. Her poetry is beautiful. It's not slammy. She got decent, not great scores and was almost in tears after reading (she was second to the last reader). I was in first place by more than a point so she knew I would be in the second round. She...

For Gawd Sake the man can't even commit suicide correctly.

You heard, no doubt, about the idiot that parked his car on the Railroad tracks then chickened out at the last minute derailing two trains and killing (I think 10) people on the train.

I need to start a real "Suicide Hotline". I will record a few basic suicide tips like "When hanging yourself try...

I don't know if you are a Saul Williams fan or not, but I saw him on MtvU on campus yesterday and got all excited that they would give air time to such a great spoken word artist

I Need Your Help.

As I posted a few days ago I just sent my audition tape into HBO's Def Poetry Jam. It seems like a longshot to get the gig (as are all such thing) but I know I am good enough.

It would help me CONSIDERABLY if you could find it in your heart to e-mail DPJ and ask that I be accepted....

Just read and/or heard a couple things I enjoyed that I thought I would share.

I asked a guy I know who just moved to a nearby podunk town how things were there. He answered

"It would take 32 women to make a smile there"

And I read this morning something Will Durst said that made me laugh.

"Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver: The first...
