Jack Kerouac Bobble Heads still available

The Jack Kerouac Bobble Head dolls produced by the Lowell Spinners are still available on-line. Click here to order.

Kerouac Bobble Heads from the last time the Spinners produced them are going for a couple of hundred bucks on eBay. And some of the proceeds go to the Jack Kerouac Scholarship Fund. Only 1,000 will be sold on-line, so get your order in ASAP.

I'll post a picture of mine when it arrives (they ship Monday August 13).

In fact--and if I'm not mistaken about this--my entire stock/investment portfolio is that bobblehead. It beats (no pun intended) any other interactions with Wall Street and the sordid hucksters of American finance...

Reviews of The Beat Handbook

Gerald Nicosia, author of the acclaimed Kerouac biography Memory Babe, said The Beat Handbook is "full of Jack's heart."

Jared Randall, author of the excellent book of poetry, Apocryphal Road Code, said this about The Beat Handbook: "Sometimes a book comes along at just the right time. In my wandering pack of experiences, I find they often do. Enter The Beat Handbook by Rick Dale."

Kenneth Morris, Kerouacian extraordinaire, said this:
"I just finished reading Rick Dale's beautiful utterance and call to action of Kerouac mind-set and zen sensibilities. It made me laugh and reflect on my own life and road I have naturally grooved into after absorbing the Kerouac canon. The road less traveled always had my name on it. And that has made all the difference. The Beat Handbook 100 Days of Kerouactions reaffirms the attitudes and ideology that made the Beats and Kerouac the important men of ideas that America (and the world) thirsted for, needed, and swallowed whole. Beautiful, absorbing, Top Ten whipsmart from my articulate, tender-hearted friend and fellow traveler. Highly recommended."
