Great photo of Walker with camera lookin like a movie star. The prose is like a hand held camera rough and ready a black and white movie until it explodes and not technicolor with the introduction of psychedelics Sal Paradise and Dean Moriarity are the unsung stars to Kesey and Babbs as Neal & George are the wheel men on the. Road as it meanders forevermore down the twists and turns of the underground camera revealing the Wycked know no rest
Harry Tsvi Strauch-from the magical, mystical vortex, a.k.a. the Haight, Ashbury, District, San Francisco, California, USA.
The reason they’re always wasn’t a lot of weed, grass, marijuana, around in the 50s and 60s in America is because the marijuana would come from Mexico. There was always a shortage after the harvest, especially when it got around to Christmas until the next summer time and autumn when the next harvest would come up from Mexico. People didn’t grow weed until the late 1970s, and they called it domestic.
I follow storyteller George on Facebook and find him delightful. Im a broadcaster on public radio in orange county county at UCi. Very conservative county. Kesey changed my life in a comprehensive way, which is another story. I don't call myself a Merry Prankster but I act like one. I've take it as a life mission to proselitize and spread the history of that crowd and predecessors un the cause of Individualism to the oc demographic and the youth i broadcast to. I also busk here with a 20 unit bell orchestra called Bianzung Bell Merry Thunder Machine at the local pier. I do believe excerpts of this shall be read aloud on my show with proper credit given. I often play clips of kesey too. I humbly carry I the tradition of Bridgework
