I am glad that I was able to post a reply be...Rick,<br />I am glad that I was able to post a reply because in the past I was unable to do so and could not communicate with you. I was thrilled to see the movie, "On the Road" is now out in DVD format for only $12.95. As a reader of Kerouac books for over the past 40 years I sincerely appreciate the work that you have done on this website to promote such a cultural experience as Jack Kerouac. I find it to be just that, an experience that one can dig! <br />SteveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259386991508935093.post-19285042082622603902013-08-12T14:55:37.401-04:002013-08-12T14:55:37.401-04:00brcanson, you are correct that I posted about Jack...brcanson, you are correct that I posted about Jack Kerouac being murdered on September 3, 2009 (http://thedailybeatblog.blogspot.com/2009/09/jack-kerouac-was-murdered.html).<br /><br />Steve, I have Empty Phantoms but didn't make that connection - thanks.Rick Dale, author of The Beat Handbookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17721559977431022390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3259386991508935093.post-55635761138969988232013-08-03T10:55:08.614-04:002013-08-03T10:55:08.614-04:00Rick,

I came across something, I believe by you, that had to do with the possibility that Kerouac was murdered. I've thought something like that for many years, ever since reading Nicosia's biography of Kerouac in 1988, where he recounts the beating Kerouac took in Fla. at the hands of, I believe, some blacks. It's really kind of amazing that more wasn't made of this over the years but considering the leftist tyranny we've been ling under for so long, maybe not so amazing.brcansonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10623490485600101716noreply@blogger.com
