78/365 Kiki

It could be argued that in 1971 Kiki was the most bubbly camp counselor on the planet, but paralyzed by a headache from enjoying too much pinot noir last night, I am in no condition to do so. Just take my word for it.

LOL...I hope it was a good year (the pinot, not 1971).

Greetings from Portland, Maine, where I enjoyed two glasses of Masi Masianco last night for dinner. Pretty restrained, eh?

And Tim says to you:

I protested that you were taking liberties with the art form, to which the bunting defended you with a quote from the antichrist: "Everything is permitted." I had to add, "therefore everything is innocent."

I strongly recommend a little hair of the dog as well as big old-fashioned greasy breakfast. But I see it's quarter to three so it's far too late.

I agree with the big greasy breakfast remedy - always worked for me. I also say stay away from the Pinot Noir for the evening!

Tim - I am not sure if I agree with the everything is innocent comment though, even if everything is permitted! ;-)

I know I know *snap snap* Barkeep get me a beer!

Well, maybe Tim's got a point. Maybe I could have been more descriptive, more accurate. I probably should have written HANGOVER instead of headache.

Still, Kiki does deserve her props so, here's another go at it:

Kiki’s even perkier than the noise her name makes and not the person you should think about when you’re brain’s bouncing against your skull and your only wish is that all the world’s exuberant fools will stand still a minute so it won’t shake.

There, let there be no form of art with which we do not take liberties.

Wow. You're really good for a chick with a hangover. And Tim just loves an opportunity to quote Nietzsche.

uhhhm, I think there's only ONE exhuberant fool in this group, and she's got a might headache


(grin) just teasing, of course

Kiki? really? I didn't realize anyone actually had a name like that in real life.

The only Kiki I've ever heard of was that model/dancer that Man Ray used to photograph and boink in those Paris heydays.

Ah, but what were Nietzsche's intentions in (mis)quoting Dostoevsky? Karamazov: "If God does not exist, everything is permitted." Nietzsche, quoting him: "‘Everything is false! Everything is permitted!'" which later somehow became "God is dead." Terribly confusing. What would Kiki say about it?

Philosophically impoverished, I'm not intimately familiar with Nietzsche or Dostoevsky - I can however, quote Kiki, the camp counselor everybody loved: "Everything's groovy."
