Re: Cookie Mueller
Picture this Cautious Lips, Cookie is on her way to see an art show so she can review it for her weekly review in The East Village Eye ( local arts newspaper of the east village) I run into her on 57th street uptown and she invites me to join her. The opening is in a gallery on the 9th floor of a building on W.57th St. We arrive early before anyone so she can see all the work clearly without anybody in the way. We take the elevator to the 9th floor and the door opens right into the gallery.

Thank you. You seem to always have such stories...you should consider writing a book (I know I'd buy it.) On a positive note, I am trying this patience you spoke of in the Anya thread Shhh...I'm trying to listen to reason...

And Cookie was a brilliant writer, as well as being a photographic icon and movie star, CL. There's a worship site at: http://www.angelfire.com/md/cookiemueller/home.html if you can stand the pop-ups. Her book, "Walking Through Clear Water In A Pool Painted Black" is an amazing classic and I believe still available from Amazon. I first met Cookie that summer that everyone from "Desperate Living," as did I, lived in Provincetown (where Bobby lives now.) The summer when Willy Brookes, the...

Re: Cookie Mueller
I recently read Ask Dr. Mueller:The Writings Of Cookie Mueller. It was amazing-I laughed, I cried, it was an amazing read. I also recently picked up I'll Be Your Mirror(video) and it was such a touching film. I was not around during the club periods, etc so this video is nothing short of amazing. I do admit, I cried a lot while watching the parts with Sharon and Cookie.

Re: ORANGE ALERT for New York City
http://www.iht.com/articles/522482.html "General John Ashcroft and Robert Mueller 3rd, the director of the FBI, created unease last week with their vague warning that Al Qaeda was planning an attack in the United States. It was not so much the grimly familiar warning. It was the absence of Tom Ridge. . The public understands that warnings are not likely to be specific. . But two and a half years after the Sept. 11 attacks, bureaucratic turf battles over the nation's security are inexcusable.

Report from P,town: It is sunny and warm and very clear and beautiful here. The shy is blue and at night there are a million stars shining brightly. The regulars have returned for the season and the day trippers remain the same. Today I met the grand daughter of Cookie Mueller. A beautiful 3 yr old with a clever manner and an inticing smile. She looks exactly what you would think Cookie must have looked like at that age. I said hello and she closed her eyes tight as if doing so would make me...

Re: Cookie Mueller
I was just having some wonder... I was looking through My SO 80's book By Patrick McMullan...And I saw Cookie in Her casket... I always wondered why she died so young...so I started searching... I have had such a great time researching her. She was such a jewel. I wish I could have met her...

Re: Cookie Mueller
She was a jewel, you are right. I think there is a Cookie topic here somewhere.

Re: Cookie Mueller
Daddy..you silly..THIS is the Cookie topic. And here in Ptown we have Cookie's son Max aka Baby Noodles from Pink Flamingos and Cookies baby grandaughter who looks just like her. She danced next to me for an hour last week in front of town hall as I played guitar and sang. She's a real pisser.

Re: Cookie Mueller
Of course this is the Cookie Topic. I'm so stupid. I'll never figure out this whole interweb thing. Chi Chi just laughed. She said, "Now the whole world knows what I know". Actually, that was a VERY Cookie Mueller thing to do. She was really smart, really funny and REALLY ditsie.

Just to set the record straight.. I AM the photographer of the photos of Cookie Mueller, her son Max and Gennaro Palermo in Provincetown, that have been floating around. Not David Armstrong.

Please Note* that the photo attached by Daddy on May 2, 2007 of Cookie Mueller, her son Max, and Gennaro Palermo was NOT taken by David Armstrong, but they were photographed by ME. Audrey.

Re: Cookie Mueller
Dear Audrey Antler, I apologize for my wrong assumption about David Armstrong -- whose “Summer of ’79” show at the Albert Merola Gallery in Provincetown (25 May -14 June 2007), which included several photographs picturing Cookie and John Waters during that P-town season, led me (and others) to suspect that it was Armstrong who took those great photos. Judging from Max's age, they look like they were taken in the late '70s. But of course Cookie was photographed by a lot of people throughout...

I was just reading Cookie's "Ask Dr. Mueller" again and I was loving the story of Divine in pp-town, chopping down a neighbor's fir-tree, since they could not afford an xmas tree otherwise.

Re: Cookie Mueller
I was honored in 1984 (I think) to do a reading w/ Cookie Mueller, who I did not know, at Hallwalls gallery in Buffalo NY. It was one of my first solo poetry readings. I didn't really know anything about her then, except that she had been in Pink Flamingos. But I *loved* her writing, and the way she read it was so great -- she had a slight lisp, and a very hilarious, deadpan delivery, but you were in on the joke with her -- she never had that snotty distance so many "cool" people have.
