LEE'S LIBRARY I is Style is a collection of writings by and about the underrated genius of Hanover Dada Kurt Schwitters. His own brand of Dada, which he called Merz, is a rich collection of abstract poetry and masterful collages. This book has some beautiful color photos of his work from the 1920s to the 1940s.

The Pillowmeincannons Report
Not long ago I had the privilege, while taking a Caribbean cruise, to see a
performance by the popular and famous impressionist Fred Travalina, whose impressions of
President Carter and Dr. Ruth are as spot on today as they were when those people were in
the news. And during the recent trouble, with all its uncertainty, I recalled the feeling
of watching this great performer and feeling more in touch with the past. We as Americans
have always valued not only the future, but the near future. Now that things are more, well,
uncertain, we turn once again to the past, a past filled with colorful figures and funny
clothes. IN THE BEGINNING When I, Lee Harvey, began my career on radio during the
first Bush administration, the most we had to worry about then was the erosion of free
speech and global war with Arab nations. Now, our children are not so lucky. They must worry
about not only these things but the threat of much more. Much more. Much much more. While
we still have capable leaders in charge who will always vigilantly guard those values which
they share with other capable leaders, we the people of this country, hardworking people,
people of faith and doubt, of hope and sorrow, of skin colors ranging from dark rich brown
to an almost kind of translucent pink, people of means and mean people of no means...this
means you! And frankly, so do I. ANOTHER WORLD! This page has been designed to lead you
into another world, to explore the world of Lee Harvey Radio. To better understand each
other we must first understand those around us. Imagine visiting another world! Imagine
having jury duty, as Lee does in his popular piece, Jury Duty, with lots of timely
references to the OJ case. Take a trip to a real fair with Lee Goes to the Fair, or travel
with him to Washington in Lee Goes to Washington. Disney likes to say
they specialize in magic. Well, here at Lee Harvey's World, we specialize in more of a three
card monty type of thing. Is this your card? SEVENTY VIRGINS WITH BLACK EYES If you've
never heard Lee Harvey or visited this page before, let me hep you to the skinny. The page
is organized roughly like the federal government, with different sections having unclear
parameters and overlapping responsibilities. The archives consists of some older Lee Harvey
bits...the "Best of" album, AKA Eight ball, will eventually contain the entire comedy
release. If it's culture you want, just click on the MacCoy link to hear a wonderful
reading of William Startrek's MacCoy. The daily feature item, which this month is Kill
Miller, is a favorite pick of me, Lee. Other features include the collection of art at the
Fundacio Morris, a museum in France supported by the Lee Harvey Foundation, also known as the
Harviners, a charitable organization founded by the great man. Remember, a Harviner never
stoops so low as when he helps cripple children. Also an MP3 from 80s supper-group
Coldwater Army. Why, this site has it all. At the bottom of the page you'll also find
a clip from the old site, a terrific underground tape of a would-be promoter's taped letter
to the label industry. So friends enjoy. And if you are troubled, uncertain even,
remember, that when you take the time to be certain, it's worth the trouble to take that
time---certain or not.
Montpellier, FRANCE--In these times of uncertainty and trouble, troubling
and uncertain as they are, we, the various personalities of me, understand that what people
really value in times like these--as I said, uncertain and troubling ones--are short radio
clips from ten years ago. One thing that can be said of timely, topical humor--it's
timeless.
