The Dharma Bums- Pg. 200-223

" We'll write poems, we'll get a printing press and print opur own poems, the Dharma Press, we'll poetize the lot and make a fat book of icy bombs for the booby public."

I like how idealistic they are. Always comming up with new ideas. thats the cool part. I always have ideasliek this too but i never persew one untill somthing happends or i now its going to work with out much help. Maybe this is why Jack Kerowak writes and and all it proably started out as an idea and then he jsut went with it and it stoped becomming an idea it actually became something.

" Well then nothing's really happening, then."
He threw a stick at me and hit me on the foot.
" Well, that diden't happen," I said.

He is talking about how little things are meaning less. or well not meeningless becaouse some of the smallest things in life are meaningless but this kinda is talking about how witha pure Tathagata mind asking or haveing stupid things like that meen nothing there is nothing behind it. this is just showing how something like that really doesn't meen anything there is nothign behind it a stick was throne that was it. its kinda like a Zen moment i think.
