  • The best thing about my ex-girlfriend was the fact she introduced me to the writings of Kerouac. So I'll give her credit for that. Oh...she swallowed too.

  • I just realised that a part of this reading is sampled in one of my favorite songs, Passion Pits "Sleepyhead".

  • @MsGatonegro lol!

  • @sherman546 Ok, white flag! 

  • @sherman546 :D Very clever, I admit it

  • @MsGatonegro "My fault,my failure,is not in the passions I have,but in my lack of control of them." -Kerouac

  • Sampled by DJ Mark Farina for the intro track "This Beat" offa Mushroom Jazz volume 6. The accompanying music is haunting and chill and fits the read PERFECTLY.

  • Why God aren't we as free as this? Keruac has this way of reminded people that they are FREE. And without people like that we somehow forget to remind OURSELVES. It makes me almost think I have something to prove to myself. Can someone else tell me if they feel this way when they read his work?

  • ...just recieved a postcrd from sal paradise. it was a picture of the earth from the edge of the solar system; it read: 'wish you were here"...

  • @JKumlin Try 'The Jazzual Suspects - This Beat (Original Mix)' same thing goes for me, this is used in such a laid back funky track, awesome.
