BEAT writer JACK KEROUAC : March 12, 1922 – October 21, 1969
the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue center light pop and everybody goes ” Awww! ” — Jack Kerouac – On The Road
Wow! What a coincidence. I’m reading Kerouac’s On The Road right now!!! If I read it years ago, I wouldn’t have understood it as well. It fell into my hands and there you are!!! Strange, Muriel

I’ve never read On The Road but I’ve always wanted to. Him and Neal Cassidy I’ve always wanted to know more about.

I am very partial to Jack! I have read OTR a few times, which I suppose exposes much about me!

Waited for that center blue light to pop (snicker). Waited, waited some more…. 🙂 Did a darty eye thing, Still no poppage.
Scrolling back up to try what Graham there did. If that doesn’t do it, I quit
