William S. Burroughs - The Junky's Christmas , part two

Thank you for posting this, aside from Rudolph the red nosed reindeer, this is my fav!

i was junkye before ever hearing about w.b. im reading junk, the fact that a person can describe every synthom of junk sickness there is no nothing that feels like it... hell, its feeling death and not dying

Subversive as this is, it remains strangely touching. It's hard for someone who's never experienced junk sickness to understand what a sacrifice that would be.

i can HONESTLY say that Burroughs is probably 40-50% the reason I finally got around to scoring smack and eventually getting good and hooked. I tried twice to visit him in Lawrence Kansas but was never able to find his house! One of the times I had just missed him doing a live reading from his latest book "my education- a book of dreams' at one of the alternative-type of bookstores in downtown Lawrence! Even though the guy knew where he lived he would not tell me & I came from Vancouver BC!

thats a bad idea dude. i believe in freedom and not that bullshit freedom that ppl always spout but real freedom to do watcha want as long as you aint impacting on someone else. but getting hooked is a bad idea specificly cuz it isnt freedom. you just have another thing you need. and needing is a type of servitude. but its all our choice right?

I'm sure that's exactly what he wanted...to inspire drug addiction and have addicts show up at his door to discuss it with him.

He even gave it to him. That is kindness.

This is timeless stuff. Junkies never change. Even though this looks like it might be the 50's............. it might as well be today.

I love it too, but it would never happen.

great clip..anyone know of burroughs narrating a version of red riding hood..its was anime part claymation and stuck to the original Euro version closely
