Janet and John at Pinchers Crab Shack facebook profile picture for John Yotko You know, it is getting sad looking back on FB as past years travels for the New Year.. Because two years ago we were at Pinchers Crab Shack in
Janet and John at Pinchers Crab Shack Naples Florida (a place I’ll probably never get back to again), and I was wearing the black pearl earrings and necklace just bought for me as a Christmas present from India.

Instagram of Janet and John Oh, but one year ago today I was celebrating for the New Year with John Yotko and there are so many pictures of us dressed up (and me, of course, wearing my “ast Christmas” pin)... I don’t know what we’re
Instagram of Janet doing tonight, but maybe I’ll dress up for whatever we end up doing. (You know, with John’s new job he travels less, but they make him come in to work for signing documents on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve - so much for a vacation when everyone else takes time off...)

video Oh wow (and how sad)... Get a load of this - FIVE years ago today (because I was out of town and my open mic I had - at that time still at the Café - had a few weeks off for the Christmas holiday), I ran a “classic” podcast in the weekly podcast, and it was from camera #2 of my show 6/22/10 of poems with live music (and prerecorded music and video from readers out of country) and flash fiction (with John as an actor there too). Although the podcast is no longer available, it’s good to know that the full video is now also on YouTube.

Hi there, and Merry Christmas!

It has been a busy year, and we wanted to share the past year with you... The year started with us getting stranded in a blizzard in Indiana returning from Florida where we visited Janet’s father for the holiday (the last time she would see him). Since January 2015 was Janet’s 20 year anniversary as a vegetarian, she asked John if we should make any plans, and he suggested (since his job took him to India regularly) that we visit the town of Visakhapatnam in India in January...

Bon Voyage! It was fascinating as a vegetarian (where it is so common) and as a woman (where women are considered second class citizens there) to see both the culture and the architecture. (Janet even released the journal and photo book Bon Voyage! about the trip, through Amazon printers in the U.S. and Europe.)

In the beginning of February, John found out that Pfizer was buying the company he worked for, Hospira. (Pfizer bought Pharmacia, the company he worked for in 2002, and his plant was shut down and he was out of a job for 6 months.) Since we knew he was now in a higher position that would probably be eliminated, he looks at other Hospira locations in the country, and found out that the Austin, Texas plant (the largest producer of saline bags for hospitals in the world, going there would mean a safe job, better pay and better weather) wanted him to move there. Although
house 4 sale Chicago is Janet’s true love, having a job to pay for your home (or even multiple homes, until we can sell out Gurnee house) is better than being unemployed. So John took all the steps to start working in Austin August 17th this year, while Janet waited for house repairs, then movers, then agents, then all of the other little details to put the house on the market (which only happened in late October, once the school year started, so if you know anyone this winter who would like a huge and well-priced house with 3 bedrooms and a big kitchen and 2 fireplaces, tons of space, and a huge bathtub with jets and even a sauna, let us know).

the Café Gallery While packing up the Gurnee house, Janet also found a replacement host for the poetry & music open mic she ran for over half a decade (that has been running since December 1996, and thanks to Dave Gecic for continuing the open mic). It was wonderful hosting the Chicago open mic the Cafe Gallery, because it was the only
the Chosen Few one of its kind that posted not only YouTube videos but also a weekly podcast. It is because of this that before Thanksgiving this year (in addition to the literary magazines and collection books Scars Publications releases) Janet released open mic features writings (with YouTube links) in the paperback book the Chosen Few. Janet did many last-minute shows and readings in Chicago, and although it took a while, she was finally able to leave our home of 15 years, move away from Illinois and travel with John to Austin permanently.

Life in Austin? Well, it is warmer, and the culture is cool too (after joining the poetry scene here, everyone really seemed to respond positively - can’t wait to get out there for Janet singing and reading and John playing guitar). And when we are so used to traveling for a Kuypers family Thanksgiving dinner, it was nice to invite over our niece and family (thanks for coming by, Laura, Scotty and little Rylan) to our apartment for Thanksgiving (and it’s nice to set up a tree in an apartment with 10’ tall ceilings). Hope everyone had a great year - and have a wonderful 2016!

Photo credits include: John with people who wanted their picture taken with him, while we were visiting Kailasagiri in Visakhapatnam India 1/18/15. Janet petting a cow in the street in Visakhapatnam India 1/23/15. Janet (wearing “Pfired” t-shirt she designed) with John in Kenosha WI 2/3/15.

On the photo Christmas card: The background image is collage of ornaments of John & Janet’s Christmas tree, photographed 12/10/08. The bark at the bottom of the “tree” was photographed in Naples Florida 12/25/08. The “star” is one of the ornaments from the Christmas tree, with a collage of stars (for the points to the “star”, both saturated and inverted) photographed from NASA’s Hubble telescope over the years. Details of the images that form the “tree” (from top to bottom)... The top image is of Janet & John attending the Western & Southern Open tennis tournament in Mason, Ohio (the photo is from 8/16/14, but they also attending in 2015 both weekends of the tournament). The next image is Janet & John 1/18/15 visiting the Kailasagiri in Visakhapatnam, India. The next image is Janet with John on his birthday 3/23/15 at the Maker’s Mark distillery in Loretto, KY. The next image is Janet holding a nutcracker and John “playing” the decorative horn for Christmas 1/16/14 in Gurnee, Illinois. The next image is Janet & John in front of Wrigley Field 6/19/15. The bottom image is John & Janet, with Scotty, Laura & Rylan, in front of the tree 11/26/15 after their family Thanksgiving dinner in Austin, Texas.

armadillo In the Midwest, I would photograph dead skunks, though dead deer (oddly enough) were almost as common as dead birds... And this morning I saw a deer running through a wooded area at the Williamson county line on Parmer avenue as I went for a walk this morning before the work day - but I have to admit, walking down the street and seeing a dead Armadillo is a new one for me.

Stories of Women And the weird this is that four years ago today on facebook I also released a SLEW of videos from my hour-long show a Swing State titled the Stories of Women. It was crazy because this show (with music for each track performed) had video, plus a camera on me showing my performance on a TV (where I did the pieces trying, i want love, too far, how to please a woman, i’m thinking about myself too much, raped with words (read by John), women’s very existence, white knuckled, driving by his house (flash fiction), the fourteenth, in the air (1st & last verse of part 2), content with inferior men, a woman talking about her rapist friend, knowledge (flash fiction), the martyr and the saint, coslow’s, right there, by your heart (verses 2 and 6), and (ending with) stalker (a short story)...).

Symols Manifest Wow, it was two years ago today that I reduced the price of 2011 magazine books, including cc&d’s Up In Smoke and Down in the Dirt’s Symbols Manifest (and I have to admit, I still like my dead deer cover for that issue, that we found right outside our house)... Those got over a 20% savings 2 years ago today, and are found through amazon in the U.S., the U.K. and Europe...

assholes with guns Just released a book from Scars Publications today - the John Sweet book a nation of assholes with guns (a 6" x 9" short poetry book)... It is cool to have a writer from the early days of cc&d (and it’s cool to have an AR-15 on the cover, and a typeface that uses guns for the letters j and r). Literally published minutes ago, order a copy of this unique poetry book while it is still hot off the press! (Also, very shortly it will be available for sale through amazon in the U.S, the U.K. and Europe. So spread the word, because this book will soon be available around the world!

Orion It was great after the show last night that as I was walking down the street in downtown Austin I looked up and could say, “Look, there’s Orion!” and SEE the constellation Orion in the night sky. John Yotko said that if we were in Chicago I would have said, “Look, there’s a STAR...” (And by the way john, although this is an old picture, this is a great picture you took of Orion.)

Under the Sea Two years ago today Scars Publications released the color picture / poem book Under The Sea. This book is a 5.06" x 7.81" full bleed full color photo book with photos of swimming underwater with tropical fishes (and a white-tipped shark) from the Galapagos Islands, plus photos of animals from Koi fish to jellyfish to different images of a Sally Light foot crab to giant tortoises to dolphins, walruses, sea lions, lion seals - even photos of a sting ray and a sea horse, which makes this poem book not only a great kid’s photo book but also a fun coffee table book.

And the thing is, I later used that image as the cd cover for the 4 CD set of readings of mine over the years AT the Café called hmmm, for sale at amazon...

Perfectly Imperfect Facebook Scars Publications released the Down in the Dirt v101 12/11 issue as the perfect-bound ISBN# book Perfectly Imperfect as well as the cc&d v227 12/11 issue as the perfect-bound ISBN# book Wrapping It Up.

When Wow, so I know that I released the Nov./Dec. 2015 issues of cc&d and Down in the Dirt one month early this year (When the Walls are Paper Thin and Planets Apart) so that everyone would have plenty of time to order issues before the Christmas rush this year, but it’s funny that two years ago today on Facebook I released the LAST digest-sized issue of cc&d sold through the U.S. lulu printer (without an ISBN# and not available or sale throughout the U.S., the U.K. and Europe) - maybe that is why I chose the cover of me (fading away) looking out over Lake Michigan.

So Dave Jackson, I was feeling chilly when I went out with John to watch the Bears Game Sunday because I didn’t bring a jacket and we were siting half outside while watching the same. That’s when John told me that 16 inches of snow was just dumped on Chicago. (Apparently they put a tarp over the field at Soldier Field, then plowed the tarp, then removed the tarp so the field still had a bright green field of grass.) And here I am complaining about no jacket - I guess it’s good to be reminded that things could be worse...

the Chosen Few I would like to introduce to you, the collection book the Chosen Few! I hope you enjoy this book, now available directly through the amazon.com affiliated printer. I am THRILLED that I can let you know that this collection book of select writings performed at features during the 2012-2015 open mic nights at the Cafe Gallery was just released!
Writers in this book are ones who were features at the open mic, and (upon request) they chose one piece of writing from each of their features. Writings in it are sorted by author; the headers on the pages of the writings list the date they were performed, and (because the vast majority of open mics and features were video recorded for weekly podcast videos and YouTube video clips) a YouTube clip from the performance is listed after each piece of writing. (There is even a complete listing of YouTube clips at the end of the book of all features and open mic videos a a reference to anyone who needs it.)
After research, we believe this was the only open mic in Chicago that offered not only YouTube video recordings, but also a weekly podcast of features and open mics. I am thrilled I was able to take the open mic to a podcast and YouTube video level while I hosted this open mic, and I am thrilled there is now a collection book of select performers to highlight this unique open mic. If you forget the printer link to the book sale page, you can always see it at the main page for this open mic, at http://scars.tv/thecafe (for a while you can see it on the main page right frame of scars, and you can see it in the scars books section ” or even with the writing appearing in the book in the writings section of scars as well... I hope you are thrilled with this book as much as I am. Thanks again, and ” enjoy the book!

(And by the way, writers appearing in this book include Ned Haggard, Elizabeth Harper, David (Buddha) Hargarten, Christine Swanberg, Tom Roby, Jenene Raveslootv, Robert Lawrence, Jeff Helgeson, Annabelle Echo, Marianne Schaefer, Patrick Hurley, Bill Yarrow, Dan Cleary, Oz Hardwick, Cousin Bones, Wes Heine, Susan T.

house 4 sale For anyone in Chicago who wants luxury (that’s affordable), check out the Gurnee house just put on the market last night... Gas & wood burning fireplaces, a deck w/ 40' high trees for privacy just off Milwaukee Avenue in Gurnee (close to trains and the highway for easy Chicago commutes!). Enjoy multiple skylights in a 3,400+ SF house w/ 2 floors (and an attached 2 car garage), a stainless steel kitchen (and convection microwave) w/ lights in glass cabinets... The Baird & Warner photos don’t even include the 2 person massive bathtub w/ jets, or the sauna (yes, you read right, this place even has a sauna). Closer to cheaper gas prices in Lake County - this is a place you can’t pass up!

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers bath tub (And if a selling point that this house was owned by the only Chicago poetry open mic host who ran a weekly podcast isn’t *enough* of a desire to snatch up this house up ASAP, then I don’t know what is...) 20151103

Gallery CabaretFor those in Chicago who wanted to know my whereabouts... I am in town this week, so I want to make it to Weeds Monday night, and Poetry At the Gallery Cabaret Wednesday night too.

I know you guys make fun of me because I keep saying I’m leaving but I keep sticking around, so I wanted to give you more details on my timeline... The movers are removing all of my house belongings all business week this week (9/28 through 10/2), and I was told I should remain here (in a vacant house) while last-minute repairs are done and most of the house is repainted. So I KNOW I am here this week and next week (and if repairs and painting don’t get done in 1 week I’m here longer to finish the house before moving).

paperback jacket After my 9/2/15 show “Like a Lamb to the Slaughter” at the Gallery Cabaret in Chicago, a few audience member stressed that I had to keep the paperback jacket I wore to read my poem Open Book (the jacket that I made out of pages of a paperback book). I thought moving to Austin would make that difficult, but since I made that paperback jacket on my metal clothing form, John wrapped it in another jacket and brought it to Texas with him on his first moving trip. And thank you to John for taking a “pensive” photo of the mannequin head hat holder stop this clothing form with the paperback jacket - this photo is priceless.

Janet Just saw an ESPN commercial where players (tennis with a racket, men holding a football) saying, "this is my equipment... I am nothing without it.

And it is nothing without me.”

(Sound familiar, my marines?)

“this is my poem
there are many like it
but this one is mine
without me, this poem is useless
without this poem, I am useless”

For those in Chicago who wanted to know my whereabouts, I am in town and plan to go to Poetry “Love Letter” (at Let Them Eat Chocolate, 5306 N Damen Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60625) to read poetry at the open mic Friday night (tomorrow).

If you can make it, I hope to see you there!

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers Janet Kuypers Who knows, maybe I’ll also read my short poem I just wrote 2 days ago called operation diligence (which was written as a “personal attack” story, but I wrote this after hearing while watching a 9/11 show that fighter jets could not be sent to stop a hijacked airplane on 9/11/01 because they were detained in an drill called “operation diligence”, how ironic). 20150910

I bought a few of these when I saw them, but it was sad that one fell because I brought it to talk about colored glass for an element feature (where that photo was taken).      And by the way, THANK YOU AGAIN Robin Fine, for the green glass ornament. I am SO adding that to my tree, and if you ever wanted to make more (for any reason), I’d really love it, I would be a great addition to my Christmas tree.

Janet Don’t know if my old open mic is still called the Café Gallery, but there is now an event listing for my guest feature night at the Gallery Cabaret! Come Wednesday September 2nd 2015 (9/2/15, or 20150902) to Poetry At The Gallery Cabaret with host Dave Gecic from 7-9PM, as both Bob Rashkow and myself are features at this open mic! I’ve got new poems, I might pull out a few classic poems for my last scheduled feature in Chicago before I move... and Bob and I both even agreed to read a bit of each others writing for this night too! I’ve got props for my readings (doesn’t that SO sound like me, since I have been referred to as “the always inventive, you-never-know-what-to-expect-cuz-she-gat-a-zillion-ideas Janet Kuypers, Czarina of Multimedia”), and even free books to give away to EVERYONE at the open mic! Would love to see everyone out to pack the house for my last night at the Gallery Cabaret as a Chicagoan!

EVERYONE at the open mic the Café Gallery at the Gallery Cabaret can have A FREE BOOK! (And if you ask nice, because I don’t need to carry these books with me when I move - and if I have enough books, some may get more than one book as well!)

“jog hurt” 8/24/15 poem:

Jog... Hurt.
Jog, hurt.

Got a jar of yogurt
on an airplane
in Frankfort Germany.

It didn’t say yogurt.
It said “joghurt.”

I’ve always hated jogging,
so I guess this ironically titled
“joghurt”
is what I’ll do instead.

Morrissey collage I wondered about Morrissey’s string of increased tour cancellations (and I’m glad I saw him in Chicago in 2015), but now I hear of his series of professed illnesses, and then I hear that he was undergoing treatment for cancer this entire time. (He recently was recently in the hospital for a number of things, including pneumonia, an ulcer, and Barrett’s oesophagus, which can lead to throat cancer.)
    Morrissey said in his El Mundo interview (about his throat cancer), “I have had four cancer-scrapings, but so what. If I die, I die. If I don’t, then I don’t.” (Oh my God, that SO sounds like him.) He also said, “I know I look quite bad on recent photographs, but I am afraid this is what illness does to the overall countenance. I will save relaxation for when I’m dead.” (Okay, yeah, that *still* sounds like him.)
    But any *good* news from that BBC article? Well, Morrissey is also right now working on his debut novel. “I will be delighted to see it in print next year, and I might have no reason to sing again... which will make many people very happy!” he said.

JK & EP in NOLA w/ a crawfish Eugene Peppers, since I don’t have your number any longer (and I don’t think you check your Facebook page enough), I couldn’t let you know earlier that John and I were in Austin this business week (his job started at the Austin plant Monday), and although we leave today to watch the W&S Open (Tennis) finals this weekend, I will eventually be moving to Austin to Join John at his work transfer. It would have been nice to see you again (it has been too many years!), but hopefully we can touch base when I am back in town.

On another note, I wanted to ask you, since it has been so long (and I don’t know if Texas changed your eating habits, the way it dad for Chad Maier), but are you will a vegetarian? I know you started a month after I did in the beginning of 1995, but I didn’t know if you were still a vegetarian - let me know, and either way, we can touch base soon!

(And this is the only photo I had of you while I was away, from my iPod, no less, back from my Chicago apartment and back when we saw KMFDM together.) I hope you have the coolest birthday eve, and because I will be in Chicago only a very short while this next month, I would *really* like to see you before we leave. And by the way, we *do* have little wooden toy presents my dad made as a gift to your little one (that are perfect for his age right now) that I would *really* like to give you before we leave.                  I know I am doing a final show in Chicago at the Gallery Cabaret on Wednesday September 2nd (7-9PM are the open mic/feature hours), and if there is any excuse I can see you and give you these hand-made toy presents, I would be thrilled.

Poetry’s “Love Letter” This is your FINAL WARNING.. I am getting totally hyped for being the introductory feature TONIGHT at Poetry’s “Love Letter” with a set of never before read older poems as well as brand new poems in a set I am calling “Farewell Chicago” (I know, I know, I will be around long enough to be a feature along with Bob Rashkow at the open mic I used to host, the Café Gallery at the Gallery Cabaret, since it is now hosted by Dave Gecic, but this is the last time as a Chicago area resident I will be featuring at Poetry’s “Love Letter”). I will have ambient guitar strums to accompany my readings, and, because I have been known to bring video cameras wherever I go, I am even bringing a bunch of VHS tapes (with old episodes of David Lynch’s Twin Peaks on them, if that’s not bizarrely serendipitous enough) and I will ask people to wrap me in VHS tap as my “costume” for this reading.

Thank you to G.P.A. for allowing me to join Bob Rashkow and Bob Lawrence’s feature night, and I look forward to seeing EVERYONE at Let Then Eat Chocolate (5306 N Damen Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60625) tonight at 7pm, sine I will be starting the evening early!

Instagram of Janet and John You can’t tell, but I had to snap this skylight pic where my potted paplm tree used to be - there’s 1 leaf stuck at the glass up there.

“Just Desperation” 8/3/15 poem:

It’s just desperation
to post a billboard
that says “AVAILABLE” in all caps,
and then lists your phone number.

I mean really,
if you’re that desperate,
no one’s gonna call.

JK on WZRD Radio Uploaded all videos onto a web page from my interview on Chicago’s WZRD 88.3FM Radio 7/25/15 (which was a LOT about traveling to India on my 20 year anniversary as a vegetarian). The hour-long interview was also about my journal/poetry/photography book release, Bon Voyage!, and I got the chance to read not only a few haikus and poems (and a bonus poem reading from the new release of my “Water of Life” chapbook “Unzip the Body Bag” that is now released as a numbered autographed chapbook printed on grocery store paper bags, and a never-before-read brand-new poem I am reading at my 8/14/15 Poetry’s “Love Letter” final feature at "Let Them Eat Chocolate titled “Farewell Chicago”.

the Café Gallery poetry open mic This is a call-out to all Chicago poetry lovers... This is your FINAL WARNING — I would love to see EVERYONE out TOMORROW NIGHT (on Wednesday 8/5/15 from 7-9PM) for not only a great open mic at the Café Gallery, but also the features from Jerry Pendergast AND Dina Stuart! Join me for a great open mic at the Café Gallery, held at the Gallery Cabaret bar in Chicago (2020 N. Oakley Ave, right by Armitage and Western and at the Blue line “L” stop, with tons of free parking)... It should be a GREAT night, so come on by to this open mic and a great feature night!
    This is the LAST NIGHT I will host the Café Gallery poetry & performance art open mic at the Gallery Cabaret, and it looks like there may be a big turnout (at least according to the event listing). There is a CHANCE I’ll be in town in September after Dave Gecic takes over the open mic on his feature night August 19th (and if so, I may join side-kick Bob Rashkow for a feature before my final move from Chicago (sniff), but as my last night as host I hope to see EVERYONE there!

Poetry’s “Love Letter” Since I have been known for video recording my open mic here in Chicago for years (and since this is my last official scheduled feature reading in Chicago on Friday August 14th 2015 starting at ~7:30PM), I might find some VHS tape and wrap myself in it for reading brand-new poems in this reading at Poetry’s “Love Letter”! Thank you G.P.A., and thank you Bob Rashkow and Bob Lawrence for letting me share this evening with you! Hopefully John Yotko may play the guitar behind me for this feature (otherwise I am pulling some cool ambient background guitar for y reading), and G.P.A. mentioned that I would read early so Ida Jablanovec could make it to the performance too, and thank you for that as well....

the Café Gallery poetry open mic Hey everyone, there’s 1 more open mic I know I am hosting at the bar the Gallery Cabaret (before Dave Gecic takes over as host in mid-August on the night of his feature), so come on out in two weeks to the Café Gallery!

Come on, let’s all show some support for Janet Kuypers and John Yotko these last two readings at Café the Gallery Cabaret. Tonight is Poetry James and the dynamic folk music of Ross Berman, host of Singer/Songwriter open mic there, and August 5 will be Dina M. Stuart and Jerry Pendergast, a fitting and eccentric enough way of saying Fare well and Bon voyage to our two Texas travellers. Both shows are at 7 PM. Let“s see you there, OK???!!!

futura shows It makes me sad that there are a finite number of shows I can do while still in Chicago, but it is also cool to see the listing of activities over the next few weeks (like singing 7/22/15 at the Café Gallery, being interviewed for book releases and reading poetry on WZRD Radio 7/25/15, being the solo feature at Beach Poets 7/26/15, and having a Poetry’s “Love Letter” feature 8/14/15)...

Bon Voyage! Thank you to Cathleen Schandelmeier-Bartels, because I am looking forward to appearing on Chicago’s WZRD Radio this Saturday, July 25th 2015 (7/25/15) starting at 6:00 P.M. I will talk about recent writings and shows, but I will also talk about recent book releases, including today’s book release Bon Voyage!, which is a journal/poetry/photography book about me as a woman understanding both sexism and the caste system while visiting India on my 20 year anniversary of being a vegetarian.

the Café Gallery poetry open mic This is a call-out to all Chicago poetry lovers... This is your FINAL WARNING — I would love to see EVERYONE out TOMORROW NIGHT (on Wednesday 7/22/15 from 7-9PM) for not only a great open mic at the Café Gallery, but also the Ross Berman (host of Singer/Songwriter night) music feature! Join me for a great open mic at the Café Gallery, held at the Gallery Cabaret bar in Chicago (2020 N. Oakley Ave, right by Armitage and Western and at the Blue line “L” stop, with tons of free parking)... It should be a GREAT night, so come on by to this open mic and a great feature night!
    Also, Since Ross Berman hosts the Singer/Songwriter event at the Gallery Cabaret that follows the Café Gallery open mic, we (Janet K. singing & John Y. on guitar) will start the night with a song, and follow the Ross Berman feature after this open mic with our LAST musical performance in Chicago, with both originals and covers. This will also be a natural way to meld one event at the Gallery Cabaret into the other, so we hope everyone will come out for a FILLED evening of both poetry AND music!

Pluto and Charon After learning years ago that many astronomy photos are NOT in color (and they colorize them so us mere mortals can understand what we see), it was cool to see an article with images about it for yesterday’s flyby of Pluto from NASA’s “New Horizons” (and some of them were of colorized images).

scars.tv/thecafe Today is the day that I would normally give you the weekly podcast from the open mic this week (that would accompany a bunch of YouTube video uploads), but...
    Those of you who have been coming to the open mic are aware that I will soon be moving (to Austin Texas, and Dave Gecic will be taking over as the host). I also let people know that after I leave there will no longer be no video of the open mic and features, podcast videos will stop and the web site will be down.
    Well, one of those came last night - the domain site for this open mic (chaoticarts dot org slash the cafe) is no longer functioning. SO, I can move the web page links to the scars site, but I can no longer run the weekly podcast at that domain.
    WHICH MEANS TWO THINGS:
    1. right now, instead of going to the old site for the open mic, use the new domain name, and go to http://scars.tv/thecafe to see the schedule and recorded features (a.k.a. past YouTube links), and you can still sign up for the Café Gallery mailing list or learn about the book release of past features at Gallery Cabaret.
    2. because of conditions beyond my control, the podcast has to go on hiatus. (I don’t know if it will ever get back on line, so I can only say it is on a hiatus. If it DOES come back in the future, it will be of only podcast videos that so far NOT have been podcast videos.)
    SO, because there’s no podcast, I an pleased to give you the YouTube video links to the two features this week, as well as the open mic video:
Kottyn Campbell’s poetry feature 7/8/15
Dalice Malice’s music feature 7/8/15
the poetry open mic at the Café Gallery

Now that Chicago no longer runs a large fireworks show on July 3rd, I tried to find the best way to see fireworks there on Sat. July 4th, and was told that if you do not want the crowds, go to Montrose Harbor. Well, it was GREAT - people went there and shot off their OWN fireworks, and we saw a few harbors with fireworks (before walking back to our parked car). These 65 photos are just a sample of what we saw, and for coming for a less huge show for fireworks, it was GREAT, and the best way to see Chicago fireworks on our last summer in Chicago, trust me...

    Also, Since Ross Berman hosts the Singer/Songwriter event at the Gallery Cabaret that follows the Cafe Gallery open mic, we (Janet K./singer & John Y./ guitarist) will follow the Ross Berman feature after this open mic with possibly our LAST musical show in Chicago, with both originals and covers. This will also be a natural way to meld one event at the Gallery Cabaret into the other, so we hope everyone will come out for a FILLED evening of both poetry AND music!

Janet @ Waiting 4 the Bus So there was only one photo from my reading at Waiting for the Bus Monday 6/15 where I WASN’T looking down at the poem I was reading, but thank you to John for take photos. (Cut me some slack, I don’t have Poam: a Militant Man with Schizophrenia memorized, and besides, I had to do multiple voices for that reading...)

and saw a grey SUV
that looked like a Jeep.
& I thought
it could have been you.

Rap Sheet Because there was no event listing for this show, and because I wanted to get the word out, come to Roberta Miles’ the Cafe Cabaret Friday evening June 19th 2015 (6/19/15) after 7:00 P.M. at Cafe Ballou (939 N. Western Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60622). This even has a number of features performing this evening, but I am excited to perform this brand-new set of original and never before read poems in the show I call Rap Sheet (with poems all about being arrested and dealing with rehab and going to counseling, going to court with lawyers, and fighting for freedom).

This should be one of my more original performances, preceded with my being photographed with a prison number next to a height scale, and ending with my being handcuffed and taken away...

This is an evening with a number of performers, so come to the Cafe Cabaret for my original show - and BUNCH of other great performers too!

    Went to talk to a neighbor of my dad’s yesterday, and she said, “you’re the famous one.”
    “The famous one?” I responded.
    “The famous writer,” she answered.
    “Well, I don’t know if I’m famous, but -”
    But it’s nice that *anyone* thinks I’m famous for writing (whether or not it’s true, it’s nice to hear).

Hope Chest Vine video It’s wild for me to see the 4c cover for Hope Chest in the Attic (a 1993 book). in a 2nd printing proof copy.

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers It’s weird, when I’ve seen that book for the past 22 years, it has only purple and green inks making that front cover. This one has a full color
2015 Hope Chest book bc bleed images (sorry I didn’t have the same watch to perfectly replicate the watch used on the old front cover; maybe I’ll take the old watch face design image to replace the image on the back cover for the 2
nd printing...), and the blue box that is behind my name on the first printing, I actually took a scan of that 1st printing fc image and reduced the contrast a ton to make IT the background for my name on the 2nd printing fc. 20150530

Roger Federer after winning the 2014 W&S Open They’re replaying Federer’s 1st match 1at day of the French Open. & the #2 ranked player usually takes 1st day off..
http://t.co/N3hpMciKW8

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers But the thing is, Federer has ASKED to play on the 1st day at the French Open for the past THREE years. (I think the commentators figured out that when he does this, he can have a long break and he may end up playing 1 match less than other contenders like Nadal or Djokovic.) 20150524

the Periodic Table of Poetry After writing a poem for every element in the Periodic Table for three years (and after having this book available for private printing only since 2014), Scars Publications has just released this same private printing collection, the Periodic Table of Poetry. This 306 page book with a Scars Publications owned ISBN# is 8.5" square (like an element listing in the Periodic Table) and literally packed with not only poems for every element in the Periodic Table but also bonus poems for some elements and compounds as well. All of these poems have been performed in past features over the years, and (upon request from the Pushcart group) 6 of the poems in this collection were nominated for the Pushcart Prize in 2015 (Hydrogen Cyanide, Copper, Meitnerium, Oxygen, Tin and Ununseptium). Writing these poems was a great challenge for myself, and it was fun to refresh my science and chemistry background while writing poetry. This is a small-scale release intended as a private printing still, and I look forward to (hopefully) being able to release this collection in the future through Saloon Poetry. In the meantime, celebrate science and poetry with Scars Publications in the book the Periodic Table of Poetry!

a Year Long Journey So we would like people to come together at Laschet’s Inn for my Birthday (Monday, June 22nd)... But the hope is (since the restaurant/bar has no kitchen open on Mondays, so all they serve for food are their very good German pretzels and it is just a bar) to have a “bit” of a poetry reading in the back of the place (the restaurant part) too. I would start by reading one new poem about time (because I am *hoping* to release a mini book of poems I have written of perform in shows over the past year, titled a Year Long Journey, that would end with this one poem I’ll read on my birthday), and for others who read (there are a few of you I have in mind), I would *really* like you to pick a poem of mine to read (think of it as your present). On the event listing event listing page I even included a link to all of my poems (for those who wanted to look through poems on their ow to decide), and I think it would be great to hear how others read my work. (Will try to video record that portion of the readings, because it would be great to see these readings again!)...

Journey I am SO super-stoked for the readings for my show Journey (with poetry over the years about my mother) at Sisters n a Journey in Hyde Park (5615 S Woodlawn Ave, in Chicago). I edited a number of older poems and created to brand new ones for this event (and thanks to John for accompanying me softly on guitar) - if anyone can make it, it would be GREAT to see you there, because everyone is welcome at the story-telling event 3-6PM!

Janet and mom, senior prom 1988 Am so looking forward to sharing poetry I wrote about mom in my ~half hour reading this Saturday at Sisters On A Journey (at the Historic Quaker House in Hyde Park, 5615 S Woodlawn Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60637) this Saturday (March 28th or 3/28/15) in a story-telling gathering from 3:00 to 6:00 PM. I am hoping John will strum an acoustic guitar ever so lightly to accompany my story telling for mom (including poetry saying farewell to my mom too), and I REALLY hope everyone can make it to this truly unique event!

Janet Just found out last night from Oroki Rice that I now have a 30 minute feature scheduled at Sisters on a Journey, presenting What’s Your Story? in Hyde park on Saturday March 28th! I am SO thrilled to have an extensive performance space at this (very cool) Historic Quaker House - it was great when I was there before, and I SO look forward to a (probably very emotional) story-telling feature there!

Janet Well, I was running around yesterday taking care of my feature at the Art Colony performing India Stories, that even though I thanked Vittorio Carli and EVERYONE who came to the great event, I also forgot to post that Scars Publications released the chapbook of India Stories that I gave away at the Art Colony right before my feature! So for those who did not get a copy AT the Art Colony (or for those of you who could not make it to the show, or to everyone throughout the world), you can download this free PDF file chapbook of India Stories any time!

Mynx So whenever I work here in my office. Mynx comes up and sleeps in the waiting room chair next to my desk. (Had to put a cloth on the chair because that’s where she camps out when I work.) But I had to take this picture of her from above, because even when she is trying to sleep she contorts and shows off her belly. (Why does she have to be so cute?)

laurie anderson 20150317 THIS IS A CALL-OUT to any Chicago friends of mine in Chicago who like Laurie Anderson AND WANTS TO SEE LAURIE ANDERSON IN CONCERT WITH ME ON ST. PATRICK’S DAY. John and I have tickets to see her play at the Harris Theater on St. Patrick’s Day (TUE 03.17.15 / 7:30PM), but since John’s work made him be away that night, I have an extra $50 ticket for her concert with the Kronos Quartet (in a show called landfall). I am SO going, and I’m not keen in scalping the 1 ticket so someone can sit next to me, so I am asking IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE TO GO TO THE LAURIE ANDERSON CONCERT WITH ME TUESDAY 3/17/15. Please, anyone interested in seeing Laurie Anderson with me, let me know and facebook message me. (I bought the two tickets for $50 each; Stubhub’s lowest price now is $100.99, and TicketNetwork’s lowest price is $281.74)

ar Colony show March 14 I don’t know if this was Edwin Kuijpers drifting a semi, or if he’s the one ~1:45 into this YouTube video standing on the glass box while a semi drifts into and shatters the glass box under him. Excellent-cool. (Yes, Edwin Kuijpers is said like Kuypers, that’s my last name spelled differently, he’s even from the Netherlands.) But I had to share.

ar Colony show March 14 But you know what’s coming up BEFORE my bonus performance Friday 3/20 the Chi-Fi show (and even before the Café Gallery open mic at the Gallery Cabaret Wednesday 3/18 with the Tom Roby feature)? That would be the Art Colony (sponsored by Vittorio Carli) on Saturday 3/14 from 5-7PM! I am doing brand new and never-before read poems (mostly written during my trip to India), set to cool sitar music from the HA!Man of South Africa (Francois Le Roux). Hopefully you can make it out next weekend for THAT great show with 4 features as well!

Chi-Fi Am pleased I am one of the readers of poetry on the sci-fi tip for the Chi-Fi convention coming up - I am performing on the first day - Friday, March 20th - with other great poets. I will be ALL into Star Trek in this performance, with poems never-before performed, so I hope you can make it to the Science Fiction conference at the Palmer House (17 E Monroe St, Chicago, IL 60603) for a bunch of great features! There are a ton of different-styled performers (trust me, this is NOT just poetry), so for more information contact Robin Fine to get all the details on or chance to perform at the Chi-Fi convention!

All of the short poems also have YouTube video links after the poems, and since we did a book release feature in Chicago the day the book was released (with 40+ poems - mostly haiku poems - read by assorted people to music), I have updated the book contents to include not only old but also new new video links to the book so people can see more video links associated with the many poems in this collection.

As a personal note to all people who send me requests to play Facebook games, please, DO NOT ASK ME TO PLAY GAMES ON FACEBOOK. I do not play games on my computer (my computer has better applications than games), and because I - and my computer - have better things to do than play Facebook games, I have to go into my Facebook settings listing every time someone sends me a game request to have the Facebook block any requests for any derivation of the game someone just sent to me as a request. (This just means I have to waste time blocking more game requests, because someone asked me to play a Facebook game - and so far, I have OVER 230 of these “games” blocked on Facebook.) So I ask anyone, ever, in the future, PLEASE, do not send send game requests to me, or send game offers to me, or send game notes to me - please do not ever send me anything to ever play a Facebook game again. Thank you.

Janet in Agra with the Taj Mahal in her glasses Late last night I was able to complete processing photos from SOME India travels, including my days at Agra (where I spent time at the Taj Mahal, considered by some the 8th wonder of the world, even though it was INSANELY foggy at this shrine, built entirely for love of the queen)... — at Taj Mahal.

Janet and John at RAM Should I discuss that my necklace (that John likes) is of links from my old pair of shoes? Or should I say I’m thinking of my Kurt Irons poem at this bar, where all I want to say is “punch it IN!”? (Okay, I’m not thinking of my poem, but as the Heathers movie infers of Kurt and Ram, “the quarterback, buggering the linebacker”) — with John Yotko at The RAM - Wheeling.

Christ tree with candy cane nutcracker After being out of town for so long, TODAY was the day we took down the Christmas tree (and remove the nutcracker minions en masse) - and I even removed the tall thin tree in the stairwell with all of the map bird Lorelei made for decorations this past Thanksgiving (I am SO going to keep those birds for use on that second slim tree every year, they’re so cool). Once again,we will be getting 6 hours of sleep tonight so we can wake up for the Australian Open finals, starting at 2 AM EST (we even bought champagne to be ready in the middle of the night, while watching the Andy Murray / Novak Djokovic tennis match). It worked last night, getting up to watch tennis (we both agreed while out for breakfast in the morning - when the women’s finals was being replayed - that it was really cool to get up to watch the first finals match live).

Janet at the Western & Southern Open in 2014     I figured that since the finals for women are 2AM CST Saturday morning (with Sharapova playing Serena Williams) and the finals for men are 2AM CST Sunday morning, we may have to wake up early with champagne for live Australian Open coverage this weekend.
    I have heard that when Murray and Djokovia play each other in finals like this, they both have a 2 in 4 record. Cool to see who beats that record and wins the final.
    I know they will replay bot finals at 8am (during my breakfast) and 7pm (during the Superbowl for men finals), so we’re on a mission to watch the, live this time.

facebook profile picture for Janet Kuypers Janet Kuypers Apparently Kiley Brown says I’m effervescent. (The first definition of effervescent is - of a liquid) bubbly or fizzy. The second definition of effervescent is vivacious and enthusiastic.) Okay, I’ll take that...

the Cafe GalleryFor anyone who want a potential feature during the 2015 schedule for the Chicago open mic at the Café Gallery - and we can have up to two features on any given night), send me an email in February through the links on the web site (not through Facebook), and we can add you to the future schedule.

The extra-groovy-cool thing about having a feature at the Café Gallery is that I also video record open mics and features to be a part of the weekly podcast - so you would not only get to be on a YouTube video link, but you’d also get your own downloadable podcast of your feature. (What a deal!) People have told me that it is cool that family or friends outside of Chicago could check out the feature, and these podcast links *do* get downloaded (I didn’t think people would want to download poetry open mic features, but it *does* happen), and the podcast link are available everywhere, including iTunes — so be a part of the Chicago poetry / performance art revolution!

jane’s feet in the Bay of Bengal I looked at the Bay of Bengal across the street and remember that I made John walk out into the Bay the first time he visited this country.
    He did, he thought it was disgusting, and then he returned to his hotel.
    Now, I know people who live here hang out in that water (they also think the Ganges is a sacred river, but it is so polluted, and people still want to experience the holy water), so I think if I made John do it, that I should do it.
    So okay, I put on all beige clothes (I’m wearing a beige shirt with sleeves short enough to read half of “Janet” in Hindi on my left arm and half of “scars” in Hindi on my right arm), I’ll bring a towel to clean my feet when I’m done, and maybe I’ll bring a camera, to prove I did this.

20150122 2:45PM IST (20150122 3:15AM CST)

Hee hee hee, I just got back. I brought a towel, a bag (for the towel, then my socks and shoes while I was in the water), my key card and my small camera. Then I just decided to just go out there, act like I know exactly what I’m going, exude extreme confidence, and just go.
    Nobody get in my way, I am on a mission.
    So I crossed the street, looked for a pathway so I could get to the lower walkway. I walked back to it and made my way toward the little strip of park that separates the street from the beach. I walked toward where I thought it would just slide down to the beach, and saw it was a cliff, and the beach was about twenty feet below. So I scanned and found what looked like an area where a truck once drove down to the beach, and walked there. Then I found a little circular concrete/marble-like seating area surrounding an ugly looking totem-like statue, so I wiped as much red sand as I could off one area, sat down, and removed my shoes and socks, placing them in the bag that was now empty (since I took out the towel and flung it over my shoulder).
    Then I got up, made sure the key was still in my left pocket, my camera was still in my right (yes, I’m that analytical and methodical, but Hell, I’m alone on the other side of the planet, I can check for my belongings), turned toward that red clay slope toward the beach, and started walking barefoot.
    (Okay, there were pieces of red clay pottery and broken glass in the sand, and also stones - I avoided foreign objects under my feet like glass, but I couldn’t escape all of the rocks.)
    So I figured, okay, this has to be like micro-abrasion for my feet (and I haven’t had dead skin cleaned off my feet since hundreds of little fish ate most of the dead skin off near Agra), made sure my being pants were rolled to my knees, and kept walking toward the shoreline.
    I walked on the wet sand, and then the tide came in from the Bay of Bengal - and I was surprised that I walked as far in as I did, because the first tide came in and got water easily up to my knees and got my pants wet.
    Lovely.
    But I’m in.
    So I took a few steps back, pulled out the camera, and started taking pictures of my feet in the water. It was hard to see the viewfinder in the sunlight, but I noticed that I could see over half of my shadow in the water, so then I started trying to get all of my shadow in the water, while still keeping at least one foot ticking out of the water in the pictures.
    After I figured I took close to ten photos, I put the camera in my pocket, turned and made my way to dryer land.

    
    As I got to sit down to start drying my legs off, I first started wringing out my pants, then I started drying my calves (which were not covered in red sand, like my feet). But that’s when an Indian family started walking along the road by my seating area, and one man from the group walked over to me while I was drying my legs.
    He didn’t say a word; he just stood there and looked at me.
    So...
    So I eventually said hi.
    He didn’t say a word (and I saw the woman and the one child standing there, waiting for him).
    Since he didn’t speak, I let a moment pass (while still drying my legs and removing the sand from the bottoms of my feet), and I eventually said, “i’m just drying my feet off.”
    More silence.
    I have no idea what he wanted (if he wanted money, I didn’t have any, and he didn’t ask, he didn’t say a word), so when my feet were dry I just got up (with my shoes and socks still in the bag) and started walking away.
    Good thing I usually walk at a good clip (must be my long legs and my height, and I am not an Indian local here who seems to relish in taking their time in everything they do), because even though those people walked the same direction as me, I easily got well in front of them. I got to a point where I could sit and pull my things out of the bag and put socks and shoes on and place the towel in the bag and get up and go again, and they still hadn’t caught up to me.
    (Not like they were trying; I was just explaining...)
    And I got to the hotel and came up here; I changed out of my pants and put them on the only hook in this hotel room, and decided to relay my adventure.
    It’s just water. I don’t know why John made such a big deal out of having to do it, like it was the most disgusting thing known to mankind, it’s not like anyone’s skin burned off in the process or anything, it’s just water.
    It’s water from the Bay of Bengal, that’s all. And that’s why I told him to do it - and I figured that if this is my first time here, I should do it too. (I’ll just accidentally get in up to my knees and get my pants wet too.)
    But it’s cool to say I did it, and no one chided me into doing it (other than me, and I am my best critic - and motivator).
    And it was cool that after I was done I had to wring out my pants, from getting in too deep.

    P.S.: John said that after he did it, he washed his feet. Okay, I’ll wash my feet and calves in the sink - with the water I shouldn’t drink, before I dry off.

Cafe Gallery From when Francois Le Roux (the HA!Man of South Africa) performed with Joke Debaere 20131007. I see Jerry Pendergast seated, and I *think* I see Daniel Weinberg at the bar and John Yotko standing at the bar... That was a fun bonus evening of raw improv at the Café Gallery.
