"The hero . . . discovers and assimilates his opposite (his own unsuspected self) either by swallowing it or by being swallowed. One by one the resistances are broken. He must put aside his pride, his virtue, beauty and life, and bow or submit to the absolutely intolerable. Then he finds he and his opposite are not of differing species, but one flesh." *** View On Black and larger. Sun, Dec. 13th, 2009, 01:38 am

*** View On Black and larger. *** When I was but a young boy, and my dad was breaking the lock on the house we had been evicted from so we could move our stuff to our new house, and I was so scared when he left me there alone to go get the moving truck, and the police came, and I hid, but watched out the window when dad came back, well, I now realize he was not very much older than I am now. He was not very far from a series of heart attacks, or going to jail for 90 days. He was not so much very older than I am today. Weird. Thu, Dec. 10th, 2009, 03:17 pm
![]() Tom Waits, who turned 60 the other day, and is reportedly up for the role of Bilbo Baggins, his album "Nighthawks at the Diner" (1975) is increasingly my favorite thing to listen to at work. All that walking upright bass and banter. Especially the "intro to the song" and song, "Better Off Without a Wife". It has a nice melancholy ring, I love, and yet, and yet, and yet... all my friends are married every Tom and Dick and Harry you must be strong to go it alone here's to the bachelors and the bowery bums and those who feel that they're the ones who are better off without a wife I like to sleep until the crack of noon midnight howlin' at the moon goin' out when I want to, comin' home when I please I don't have to ask permission if I want to go out fishing and I never have to ask for the keys never been no Valentino had a girl who lived in Reno left me for a trumpet player didn't get me down he was wanted for assault though he said it weren't his fault well the coppers rode him right out of town selfish about my privacy as long as I can be with me we get along so well I can't believe I love to chew the fat with folks and listen to all your dirty jokes I'm so thankful for these friends I do receive *** I usually follow up that album with the song, "The Piano Has Been Drinking (Not Me)" off of Small Change.

http://adolfoisassi.blogspot.com/2009/1 I met Roy the fist time I visited the Cathedral Of Junk. I probably should not write "met" but "came across" because we were not properly introduced. Roy came right behind me through the gate in his electric wheel chair, his dog in tow. He was whispering, mumbling....then breaking into a louder chant that I just could not decipher. Weeks later I would come to understand that he was late for his daily recitation of "The Thousand Names of Vishnu" in front of the sunset: "He is ever self-fulfilled He is the cause of the whole cosmic process He is naturally without a beginning He is absorbed in immortal Bliss" [More at the link above] *** Adolfo Isassi, the guy who wrote the story and took the photographs, is also a good photographer here in Austin, though he travels a good bit. *** that last portrait of Roy is fantastic! *** and for those not from Austin, or who just don't know about it, a little on the Cathedral of Junk: http://www.roadsideamerica.com/story/78 Wed, Dec. 9th, 2009, 08:48 am
