Philosopher 1: What is real, really? Philosopher 2: What is real? Philosopher 1: What is? Philosopher 2: What? Philosopher I: Philosopher 2: The End
Dear Mom and Dad, Well I'm a freshman now and I feel like a fresh man. (That is a play on words I learned from a real smart upper classman. He was drunk at the time but someone else told me here that people say whal they really mean when they're drunk. Wow, I'm learning so much). It isn't all learned in the classroom you know but I learned that what the kid lold me was a juego de palabras in Spain. That was in Spanish class. I think it means something like a jug of parables which roughly retranslated means a parable. Spanish always talk in plurals. At least that is what some brown skin guy down the hall said. He may have been drunk too. But remember: Drunk people tell the truth. I don't mean lo generalize or be pedantic (1 looked this one up. ll didn't come off the top of my head. I want to learn a lot more words like that) but I think it is valid here (Philosophy 101). 1 don't want to give a bad impression of this place though. It isn't all drunks. I saw a guy the olher day who wasn't, as a matter of fact. It was around noon and he was silling on the toilet reading Crime and Punishment by Dusty Yeskey. At least that is what he told me. Mom, I know what you're thinking and it isn't true. I just didn't see his legs under the stall before I walked in. I promise to look next time. October 11, 1974 The INDIAN Page? OF VIEW..

The Toilet has. perhaps, given birth lo more ideas than the consumption of all the great literary masterpieces lo date. There is something about our appearance in the "THE TYPICAL SIENA INDIAN (A VERY RARE BREED) IS mirror before and afler that seems to kindle deadwood mentality and spark reflection.

This is definitely the plight of absent-minded toilet goers who forg'ei Readers Digest, Life, and other toilet treats which have saved the wary from too much contemplation. A pen might also be a savior who yields spurts of wisdom in the public arena. Kept a private aflair in the shelter of one's own household, however, a pen is nothing more than an object of vested interest which might shield one from strenuous contemplation ihrough use but also becomes an object of betrayal revealing our outward most thoughts to the near and dear. In public, however, once we are "stalled" fate has left us to our own devices and although I don't condone graffiti myself I would be the last lo deny that is has prevented a great number of toilet suicides and other similar acts of self-abuse. I am glad that Norman Mailer is nol God and I am not a practicing Catholic because then I might have lo condone such verbal release which is nothing more than an albatross for lazy janitors and frustration for the blind. The reason I mention the toilet as the best catalyst or at least a catalyst for active or inactive medulla oblongolas is quite personal. Finding no literature within reach, one day once 1 had begun what I had come to end, and being, as I have said, a pen atheist since birth, I was forced lo think: something I hadn't done since freshman matriculation four blank years ago. Seated with absolutely no support in the middle 1 began lo think aboul folded centers. Not only cenlers of human bodies bul governments as well. Being a pre-presidential resignation experience and knowing nothing about Richard Nixon except that he appeared desperate for a face lift 1 naturally turned to .lohn F. Kennedy who, at the time, was the only president within my youthful experience who could smile and nol wear a toupee at the same lime. Dwight Eisenhower may receive certain injustice here since he is a president during my youth, in fact the first, and yet 1 was either blind or forgot that I could see during those years. And therefore it is difficult lo say whether he smiled, wore a toupee, or did anything else except be in wars. I only know that, in general, he was always a general bul I'm not sure how far that goes.
Presideni Johnson people lifted the corners of his mouth to smile but once alone they let it drop until his next appearance and, of course, as we all know from recent experience Mr. Nixon always wore a smile and from what one can gather a heart as well. Bul we elected such a self-made robot, I believe, because of our intense fascination with science fiction and olher occult phenomena. This is supported by not only putting him in an inescapable position and watching him free himself a la Houdini but following him wilh George Orwell's President Ford len years early a la 1984 (whatever happened to good old American food and a la carte). But I've left Kennedy smiling and loupeeless when I meant to note that we killed him and folded his life at the center. J here is no better metaphor for such activity than my rear end at the point of defecation since the slaughter of anybody is both a very vile and very human action. Bul my thoughts of Kennedy didn't last any longer than he did and having a great dislike for Greeks since sophomore Latin I turned lo myselL Nol physically of course bul absolutely. During the nexl five minutes I wrote a novel, the plot of which I will relate here although I have yet lo begin the long boring process of making it ink.

He spent each day al his desk writing with only a few vague inlerruptior j from his wife about something sex something. He exited from his sludy at certain intervals *************** and shortly returned to write again. After years of such gift the man became a dead person and relatives pitchforked him into dust and then began to search for what he Guest Blurbs for The Terminal Man had written — looking frantically about the room to find something about the man "... one hell of a flick...An hour and a half en Paradiso..." which might climax in coin. Finally looking on the desk they found his forty year Dante Alighieri labor fruit: one sentence. Wadding it into the waste basket they settled for estate and "Haven't seen it yet but I hear it's one of the best.. land money and decided that all this talk about his writing talent and artistry was Everyone is talking about it..." jibberish. I'm not sure whether 1 wanted him to commit suicide or not when I think Steven Wonder back lo that time on the toilet but I remember he was Russian or something because "Great....Great....great...." people kept talking to him, like they did to Van Gogh, and asking him "Don't you Johnnie Carson understand English?" wiihout letting him answer in the negative or permitting him the "You're right Johnnie....you're right." courtesy of explaining exactly what language he did understand. Ed MacMahon "No love's labour lost here...a midsummer nights dream." A young man would listen to the story somewhere in the world and come to see William Shakespeare what all this death was about. He would find in an isolated corner of the sludy, not a *************** novel by a reputed artist, but a tear stained journal of the frustrating road to the single HI, complelion of one coherent and imporlani sentence in one incoherent and Well sophomore year has started. Nothing happening really. Just thought I'd send a unimportant life. Page after page of the search for whal scavengers turned into note since you bought the stamps and envelopes.
