We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Looks like some reading list!
Looks like some one was having a killer party!
With all the black lights, pants and library books.
"You slip, you slack, you clock me, you lack while I'm reading On The Road by my man Jack Kerouac"
-Beastie Boys, 1989
I forgot to mention that at first glance, the fifth line looked to me like it said, "Body from library."
Hey, somebody had to find a way to make this seem CREEPY.
How cool is it that Annalyn included the words from the reverse in her Finder's blurb? thanks, Annalyn!
As for the list, I am totally surprised that "weed" or "stuff" is not on The List.
Is Mary Jane invited?
Did you see that? that kid just stole my fucking soul!
I bet everything I have in the world that this student never finishes Ulysses.
flargy: i thought it said 'body from library' too!!
& i thought they only lended books, music & movies...silly me!
....lended?? lent. it IS 4:30am. i was woken up super early by puking kids =o(
gonna be a LOVELY day *sigh*
Sounds like a 60's flashback party: go to the library to learn to make wide bellbottoms and embellish with "stitching" (ie embroidery, sequins, and studs). While you're there, pick up On the Road and Ulysses (if it hasn't been proscribed in your local library--it still is unavailable in many libraries in the Midwest). I agree with I'm Lost, she is soooo never going to finish it! But she can read the marked passages aloud at the party, by the light of the black lightbulbs reflecting off the posters, while the songs remain the same in the background...
Her parents weren't around in the 60's, either, not if they can remember them...
Ulysess? They must have been listening to Jian Ghomeshi on the CBC last summer.
Stooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooner.
Wonderland Avenue...fantastic story!!! LED ZEPPELIN...would NOT be a stooooooooner party without PLANT & PAGE!!!
That's the makings of a fine stoner pad! Thanks for including what was on the back. You must know us, we would have had people spending their whole Saturday trying to figure that out.
This is all too familiar to me. I once watched The Song Remains the Same on mushrooms while sitting in a blacklighted room. Weird huh? I would get along with this person. Is it a wish list or an inventory?
looks like someone is having a rave themed book club meeting.
How to Be a Stoner, 101 - Students will study icons of stoner life. Enhanced by unique experiential immersion by making embroidered bell bottoms and watching "The Song Remains the Same" in room lit only by blacklight. Because this is a state-funded college, extracurricular activities (pot, acid, mushrooms) cannot be endorsed by professor, but may be explored outside of class time.
Cool... I'll bring the Pink Floyd and the Wizard of Oz. It'll be a great weekend.
How to be a stoner: Notes taken by a wannabe. Not that I'm criticizing. I made my own bell bottoms in high school too. (Way bak in '99!)
Oops. Back. I'm at work on Saturday morning -I have an excuse.
this person sounds awesome
i <3 the doors and zeppelin
I wanna come too! I'll bring the hash pipe and The Doors movie....
This can't be a party planning list. Who reads at a party? Especially if you're high? Music CDs (or LP's even!) would be preferable for a party and a much more extensive list would be in order.
I hope this person was doing research for a project and not pathetically trying to be something they're not.
Sounds like my kinda TRIP.
I'll bring the pop tarts and Doritos.
I know I only read James Joyce by blacklight.
thats wierd.......
To A Kitten in a Mitten:
Did you have fun last night at the Found event? Do tell!
Maybe the person planning the Black Light party just wanted to have "food for thought" lying casually about.. I'll bet they already had some MC Escher books or prints around for contemplation. (hopefully some skilled gurus will be on hand to talk people down, if necessary!)
When your mind is ... altered... picking up a book and reading rancom passages, whether they're underlined for you or not, can be an extremely significant (or "seemingly") experience.
Seems like the planner was trying very hard to set a scene. (and it sounds to me like a meeting of the C.R.A.F.T. Club. I'm there.)
Could this be a plan or list for a school project/presentation for a history class? I can see the presenter in the pants, playing the cd's with the black light trying to explain the '70's
Say You Love Satan is a book about Ricky Kasso, who was a kid in a 'Satanic cult' on Long Island in the 70s and killed a classmate.
flargy, i saw 'body from the library too'
just wondering said: "Could this be a plan or list for a school project/presentation for a history class?"
For a HISTORY class? Honey, we were hip before your *mama* was born. Where's the nurse? Pass me my teeth, walker and hearing aids. I'm going to drop some blotter acid and take the Senior Resource Shuttle over to this youngster's place to offer some serious perspective on the foundations of 20th Century stream-of-consciousness fiction in Irish literature.
Captain: Yeah, M. C. Escher books and prints and a big volume of Hieronymus Bosch paintings; the first Whole Earth Catalog with the NASA photo of earth on the cover; a balsa wood model of a Buckminster Fuller geodesic dome sitting on a low table; the John Muir Idiot's Guide to Volkswagen Repair and a copy of Starr's Guide to the John Muir Trail; Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band and maybe the White Album on the changer; getting high by candlelight in a small stone cabin in Topanga Canyon, and being turned on to healthy foods you thought you didn't like; trying to have sex with your best friend and winding up laughing instead; reading from the Tibetan Book of the Dead; lying in the middle of a dirt road in Big Sur and staring up at the Milky Way, as the sounds of the waves crashing against the rocks washed over you; getting up early the next morning to clean the house as a gift to the people who had you over and got you high. Man, we barely made minimum wage, but we were wealthy beyond imagination.
Crisis: that sounds woooonderful :D
i wish i lived like that.
Hippy wannabe.
Midlife - are you feeling a bit sensitive? I went to high school in the early 80's and my American History class had a section on - yes - believe it or not the 70's. Particulary focusing on what they called the police action in Vietnam, which I found offensive, as my father served in both the Vietnam and Korean Wars. Which probably also means that my parents were indeed born before you.
Led Zeppelin?! The Doors?! Jack Kerouac?! I love this person! I'm going to go to British Columbia, find this person, and hug them! Huzzah!
I'm obsessed with Say You Love Satan! If any composers would be so interested, it has the all the elements of a great opera!
Crisis... I knew I knew you.
Do you remember those teeeny tiny people living in the sand on the beach?
JESUS CHRIST, Captain!! You saw them too? That completely blows my mind. I actually took a photo of them once. Some person who played with clay and obviously had had the same experience made these little unpainted figures of people rafting and one person drowning and left them in the sand where I used to go up on the Klammath River. I didn't even see them before I started to come on, and then I couldn't believe my eyes. I lay on my belly for the longest time staring at them and finally took a picture just in case I was hallucinating. If I can locate the photo, I'll scan it and post it where you can find it. So you were there all along. Very cool.
just wonder in g said: "Midlife - are you feeling a bit sensitive?"
Yeah. I'm glad you could see past the jokes. Thanks for your comments. -m.c.
Funny, sensitive hippies make me hot!
I think they're trying to impress someone?
and speaking of hallucinating and stuff, can you imagine being on that sailboat (on the stationery), and seeing those gynormous fish swimming by?
I was there, too Midlife. I think we met on the corner in Santa Cruz hitch-hiking. Remember the crowds of kids? Backpacks and sleeping bags. Summer of 1970.
THe doors ref is a book by densmore himself..
i ofund it in the libary a cuple months ago.
I used to hang out in Victoria in my younger years.. and I met many people who could have easily dropped this note while at school. I personally like the paper that it's written on.. stars, fish and sailboat? It's quite colourful..
