Ken Kesey Appreciation Day
There are going to be times when we can't wait for somebody. Now, you're either on the bus or off the bus. If you're on the bus, and you get left behind, then you'll find it again. If you're off the bus in the first place — then it won't make a damn. --- Ken Kesey
As quoted by Tom Wolfe, in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test
He obviously lived quite the life.. and the fact that he had influence of the making of the movie One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest.. which was an awesome movie..
When I lived in San Francisco, I hung out with some people who were friends with him. At that time, he had some weird thunder machine he was working on. I'm not sure what it was, he would just come down with a bunch of people to go to Dead shows in the area. I was in awe that they could still party that hard at their ages.

I love Ken Kesey, and read as many of his books as I could get my hands on...

I always loved that quote... thanks for making me smile.
