In 1964 the original construction plans were completed and the objective for the Bos to ...

... Vegas with dancers, gospel, movies. There were also several marching bands and lots of horses. I have a ton of pics and videos, so enjoy (although I do apologize for the sound).<br><br>After the parade and a lunch of Turkish Pizza (it&#8217;s a Dutch thing) we headed over to check out more of the carnival. Basically we just wandered around the town and soaked up the atmosphere. Grabbed oliebollin #3. Found a bar, got beers, danced on the ...

Hello all-<br>Well, since its been about a week since I updated you all, I figured I would just quickly update everyone. So...What's been going on you ask? Well, I've been reading, and when I wasn't reading I was reading, and before that I read and then just to round out my activities I read some more. Yep, that's basically it. The last week has seen me sequestered in my room or stretched out on the couch in the basement lounge reading for ...

... building with undergrads. The undergrads are loud, boorish, potheads and drunk ALL THE TIME. They stand in the halls and yell at 2am; they slam doors, never good in normal circumstances, but this building echo&#8217;s when you drop a pen in your room. It is one thing to come home from the bar at 4 am, it&#8217;s quite another to bring the bar home with you. Last Sunday night while waiting out front before dinner, several people in my cohort ...

... for the soup, not the toilet bowl) so it looked like only a tiny serving of soup. It was so good that I wanted to lick the bowl (again, the soup bowl, not the toilet bowl). And with its size I probably could have stuck it on my head and got a bowl cut at the same time! The soup would have been good chilled, too - a Dutch version of gazpacho. Simply put, it was sublime. It was a beautiful night sitting canalside - a ...

... affect democratic electoral change. He managed Rock &amp; Roll Bands (MC5, The Up, The Rockets, Mitch Ryder &amp; Detroit) and wrote for Underground Newspapers (Fifth Estate, The Sun, The Argus, East Village Other, San Francisco Oracle). He didn't merely mouth slogans - he did the work. The Beatles had exposed us to the idea of the rock band as a model for family. If you've seen their second film Help! you'll recall the Fab Four's mythical co-living quarters. Myth is ...
