‘Orville’s pool hall’ sat just SE of Santa Monica blvd. and Fairfax avenue, looking back at it, it seems like a overly super real movie of the late 50’s, in the woods , the Hollywood’s, that is.
The back room was the lotto ticket, not all could enter this hallowed sanctuary but the West Hollywood regulars, this crop included Telly Savalas,the bald ,non-stop smileeface,Peter Falk, who thinks he’s really Colombo ,or rather Colombo’s bad self. Both were rumored to be bad pay, translated to poolese means doesn’t want to pay off on a lost game wager. Sid long tall quiet Virgo type had the best smack, tag teamed up with him at all the old-time hangs
including Vito’shttp://www.united-mutations.com/p/vito_paulekas.htm
to enter the sacred grace of clean
smooth Heroin Could always depend on Sid to come through, until one day he just
disappeared. Gil and his twin, Gil liked the spike too much, before the tenth
grade at
Steve, now there was a guy you knew not to fuck with, his
girlfriend has the most lickable calves I’ve ever ogled. Back in
Meeting him, he didn’t seem jealous, but he did let me know, he and his buddies just blew the head off an old colored lady who was sitting on the bus bench.
Steve’s cronies were Christian, a cool six of clubs Libra,
who later, subsidized my reentry into selling real estate up on the sunset
strip in the early 70’s .I must say he ran a cool ship including a rented suite
upstairs with a stereo and couches, tiffany lamps on the desks and low key jazz
piped into the sales office. Years later Christian opened oil drilling company
and me and Steve chalked up lots of sales of wildcat drilling and safety
reserves at 20 dollars a barrel all were making money around 7-10 per cent,
today at 70 a barrel that’s stealing, I think even conservatives have figured
that out .insomuch that THERE
Orville’s was a headquarters for a community of characters who probably won’t incarnate until a new glorious epoch such as in the 50’s thru 70-s
Such a period should usher in soon after the much written about 2012, a year many great prophets have targeted for a cosmic surprise.
So many people weaved in and out of this surreal tapestry of oddballs that it has to hold a place in some history somewhere
