Re: FLUXLIST: what did you sip today?
Dear Ann and Badger Girl: i have been blushing and humbled since reading these quickly inbetween a very busy weeknd to think i have a pure soul and look like serge gainsbourg!i am glad no one else noticed! this way i can go along, incognito, incongruous-- to feel raw, simple--direct--to reach down into--or to reach out-- reading on the bus more of DADA SPECTRUM The Dialectics of Rveolt essays on the bus back and forth with text by the Third Patriarch of Zen a fellow fluxlsiter gave me two books of this a year and half ago-- one is a translation by richard b. clarke ( white pine press: osaka, japan and amherst Ma, 1973, 84) theother is a translation buy Fluxus Geogre Bercht accomapnied by facing interpretations by Dick Higgins; the book designed by Dick Higgins it is called THE AUTOBIOGRPAHY OF THE MOON the original text is the HSIN-HSIN-MING by Seng-t'san (died 606 C.E.) Third patriarch of Zen the two books very much make one aware of feels like "DaDao"--(Tao pronounced as Dao)-- (now i move from Zada to Zadadao?--from zero to infinity is not so far atl!--) one of the essays in the dada spectrum is re some of the interconnections of dada and Zen--buddhisim--mysticism of both ball and hennings and also jean/hans arp-- there is also an intersting essay on New York Dada which goes into some of Willaim Carlos Willaims delaing s with dada and hjis own struggle to find an American writing--in the period of his early books you can find colected in IMAGINATIONS--the main one is SPRING AND ALL--the search in dada for aspects of the raw, the simple, the direct--(and has a reubuff at the unnamed Russian Futurist Zaum poets)--(says they are too close to music--which is what Fluxus came out of much at the start--or as Bob Cobbing would say off Sound Poetry: "we aspire to birdsong")-- It is interesting of late to me the unity of opposities, the oneness in a sense of contradictions--in dada--the word itself--Tao the word itselfl the Way--and in "primal words" a little essay by Freud-- ii think it is related to fluxus--the intersection, conjunction, of the ephemral and the eternal in a sense--(Baudelaire's definition of Modernism--)-towards Maciunas and the Eternal network--once again, one returns to Mail Art!-- thank you again, and a sip of splash of water--lopped leaped through the air towards the tongue-- david-baptiste ps there are two sayisngs re vermont kind of corny but true at least when i grew up there-- "vermont is where you find it" and "vermont is a state of mind" the Tibetan Buddhist believe there are two sacred energy places in the usa--in vermont and in colorado-- Chugyam Trumpa first was in Vermont, then in colorado--i saw him once--he was on a dias eating pizaa drinking beer and chainsmoking cigatettes--it was a form of shock therapy i think for american buddhists to see--he said it was to better understand the american consciousness-- i kept wondering when they would bring i a tv and turn on a football game--why not take a stereotype al the way?--well, like the sheep herders of the 19th century when the american west was opening up, Trumpa moved to colorado--Vermont before the moves in the nineteenth century, had more people than today--until 1965 the Northeast Kingdom area of Vermont had no electircity--sort of the appalachia of the North!--and the street i grew up on was right on the applacahian trail-- no wonder Something Else Press was in Vermont! you see it all comes back to Fluxus! sFrom: Ann Klefstad [EMAIL PROTECTED] Reply-To: FLUXLIST@scribble.com To: "FLUXLIST@scribble.com" FLUXLIST@scribble.com Subject: Re: FLUXLIST: what did you sip today?

http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/ssistory.mpl/metropolitan/3021969 Feb. 3, 2005, 11:41AM Wife accused of giving man lethal sherry enema By RICHARD STEWART Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle LAKE JACKSON - Investigators say a Lake Jackson woman caused her husband's death by giving him a sherry enema, leading to alcohol poisoning. The enema caused his blood alcohol level to soar to 0.47 percent * almost six times the legal intoxication limit, a toxicology report showed. Tammy Jean Warner, 42, was indicted on a charge of negligent homicide. She is also charged with burning the will of her husband, Michael Warner, a month before his death on May 21. Michael Warner, a 58-year-old machine shop owner, had a long history of alcoholism, but couldn't ingest alcohol by mouth because of painful medical problems with his throat, said Lake Jackson police detective Robert Turner. The enema was a way he could become intoxicated without drinking alcohol, Turner said. I heard of this kind of thing in mortuary school in 1970, but this is the first time I've ever heard of someone actually doing it, Turner said. Turner said police think Warner gave her husband at least two large bottles of sherry, which is stronger than wine, in the enema. We're not talking about little bottles here, Turner said, These were at least 1.5 liter bottles. Turner said police don't know if the victim had ever become intoxicated in that manner before the lethal incident. Tammy Warner told police that she found her husband dead in their bed. Turner said she admitted giving him the sherry enema, but not to causing his death. A person drinking alcohol will usually pass out before getting a lethal dose, Turner said. But if you're getting it through an enema, you can pass out and still be ingesting more alcohol. Tammy Warner surrendered to Lake Jackson police Monday and was released on $30,000 bond. She could not be reached for comment Wednesday. Neither Turner nor Brazoria County District Attorney Jeri Yenne would comment on the charge related to the will. The indictment said providing him with alcohol and destroying the will constituted a criminal episode. Although Michael Warner may have agreed initially to the enema as a way to become intoxicated, Yenne said, he was not a willing participant in something that would cause his death. He knew that it was very dangerous for him to have any form of alcohol and she knew it was very dangerous for him to have alcohol, Yenne said. The couple's neighbors said they were surprised Wednesday to learn of the indictment. John Criswell, 24, said the widow had mostly been away from the modest brown frame house at the end of the street since her husband died. She said she was scared to stay there by herself alone, Criswell said. She said she'd been having trouble with his family. The couple had been married about two years, police said. She asked me to keep an eye on the place, Criswell said. He said he last saw her about three weeks ago.
