My ambition is handicapped by my laziness.

DCeiver just pointed out that I missed Bukowski's birthday yesterday. And right he is. Apparently I did the same thing last year.

Oops.

Well, that's the bad news. The good news is that Factotum (caution:audio) opens this weekend in some markets. It hits DC next Friday. E Street Cinema anyone? Beers beforehand, obvs.

The movie has been panned in pretty much every review that I've read, but it's not like that will stop me from seeing it.

Since I don't have a poem for you, check out some quotes over at Wikiquote.

Of course you can always check out my Bukowski archives.
