[Nettime-bold] my karma

[Bill Spornitz <spornitz@mts.net>]

It is my unfortunate pleasure to have to evict an old friend. I can 
no longer afford to wait for his rent.

Let me say first and foremost that he is worthy of my continued 
support. He is an itinerant country-western guitarist, (a good one) 
but, the c&w market isn't what it used to be - back in the day you 
could tour the province playing Waylon and Willie and raking in the 
cash, but times and tastes have changed. When he puts his glasses on 
(women's glasses he got at the Sally Ann) he almost looks like an 
artist, or even an intellectual. He recently suffered a year at a 
second rate *Multimedia* college, then emerged jobless and 
debt-ridden. If only I could claim him as a dependent for 
tax-purposes, but my children are so expensive already, and...

I have enjoyed his company for several years, and welcome the light 
it shines on this wretched life.  I fear I will also have to pay his 
heating bill as well.

How can I possibly break this to him? Please help me by suggesting a 
passage that I can include in the eviction notice - maybe some kind 
of *soldier-on* crapola from Kipling, or other;  maybe some Goethe?


we both thank you
