Certo. Infatti, com’è noto, se uno negli anni ‘70 voleva iscriversi alle Brigate Rosse, a Prima Linea o ai NAR, prima compilava un modulo indicando nome, cognome e un indirizzo di casella postale, poi ci allegava un bel po’ di foto, quindi aggiungeva alcuni dettagli come la città di residenza, l’occupazione e le generalità dei suoi amici, e infine, quando gli veniva l’alzata d’ingegno di sequestrare un politico, gambizzare un giudice o sparare a un poliziotto, creava un bell’evento e invitava tutti quanti a partecipare.

Just like anything

The foot of my bed is also pointed toward the door. Feng Shui implications?

"Who's gonna get me a beer?" An interview with Lee Marvin

Wed, 16 Dec 2009 00:35:51 -0500

BY ROGER EBERT / October 10, 1970

“Have another anchovy, sweetheart,” Marvin said, rousing himself at last. He drained the Heineken. “I love them,” Michelle said.

“She’s been eating nothing but anchovies for the past day and a half,” Marvin said. “You know why you like anchovies so much all of a sudden? You’re knocked up. You’re gonna have a little Lee Marvin.”

“Lee!” Michelle said. “You can’t say that.”

“Why not?” he said. “Put it down: Michelle’s knocked up. If you make it good enough, they’ll never print it. And if they do print it, and come around and ask me,Did you really say that? I’ll say, Sure, I said it.I need another beer.”

Michelle got up and went into the kitchen.

“She’s not really knocked up,” Marvin said.

you can
make a body
out of plaster soaked
in your own blood
then leave the body
in your bed
covered with a sheet
like you were murdered in your sleep

At the Sun-Times, Roger Ebert’s Christmas gift guide of presents he himself would want. Which obviously includes a rice cooker, even though he doesn’t eat.

Previously in Ebert RiceWatch: “Whatever your gender, you will do this like a man, by refusing to read the instructions.”

“I am currently writing a cookbook titled The Pot and How to Use It, about how you can cook almost anything in a rice cooker.”
