I’ve bolded those names who are either current or former members of the BJU Board of Trustees. UPDATE: I eliminated this indication after receiving all the names who signed.

The men present who voted unanimously were either all of those or some of those. We don’t know. We can presume that the Officers were all likely present: Kevin Schaal, Gordan Dickson, Taigen Joos, Bud Steadman, and Michael Privett.

Who abstained? Bob III didn’t. Mike Harding as a present BJU Board member? Stephen Jones as a very absent member of the Royal family? Mark Minnick as a current employee?

The only name on there that I can guarantee did not abstain was Don Johnson, but he’s an old friend of mine. ;)

What do you think?

UPDATE, May 15, 2023: The Positives have added an unredacted signatory list. WutBJU will mark all those signatories on the above list in bold italics.

The Bohemian Brownes/ Arroyo Seco

The Bohemian Brownes of the Arroyo Seco

Los Angeles' Arroyo Seco of one hundred years ago was a frontier, a rocky wilderness of chaparral and oak. Such a landscape was ideal for that set of Southern California bohemians, whose ideals and aesthetics were inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement, valuing craftsmanship, beauty, nature, and community.

Settling along the Arroyo Seco, between Pasadena and Highland Park, these inhabitants created what Kevin Starr calls the "Arroyoan ideal: the spiritualization of daily life through an aestheticism tied to crafts and local materials," that is "expressed primarily through the home." 1

While the most familiar symbols of Southern California's Arts and Crafts movement remain architectural -- the Gamble House of Pasadena being the most prominent of examples -- fine printing was a craft that flourished among the movement's adherents. One such adherent, Clyde Browne, was a self-identified printer and Arroyo culture character who combined both architecture and fine printing to express his deep regard for the movement's principles.

Clyde Browne is not typically recognized as a Southern California fine printer along the lines of Ward Ritchie or Grant Dahlstrom, although he certainly acted as a mentor to those who are considered exemplary craftspeople of fine print. In a telling recollection appearing in a 1948 Book Club of California newsletter, the author recalls asking an unnamed director of a California library that collected fine printing if his institution held Browne imprints.

The director haughtily replied, "Heavens no! He never made the grade." 2

Although Browne's printed work might not be found in collections of fine printing, evidence of his determination, creativity and craftsmanship can be located at North Figueroa Street, boarded by Marmion Way to the north and Arroyo Glen Street to the south, where his Abbey San Encino, built by his own hands, stands in a neighborhood that used to be the old Garvanza section of Los Angeles.

Browne was a fortunate man who was able to make his living off of what he loved to do -- printing. He started his life in printing when he was only 15, working with the Petaluma Imprint for about one year before taking on a position as an apprentice cabin boy on a Pacific Mail steamer, and then as a seaman for the Oceanic Steamship Company.

Upon returning to San Francisco in 1893 Browne served with a number of Bay Area newspapers, including the Marin County Tocsin, the San Francisco Call, Bulletin and Examiner, the Sausalito News, and the Petaluma Argus and Courier, leaving printing shortly to make a living as a piano player on San Francisco's Barbary Coast.

In 1902 or 1903, he moved his wife and small son, Laurence, to Los Angeles. His wife died shortly after the relocation, and soon after her death Browne took a job in the press room of the Los Angeles Examiner. While working there Browne met Grace Wassum, a typesetter who worked in the proof room of the newspaper. The couple married in 1907, settling for a short while on Fifth and Hill Streets, before purchasing a large piece of land nestled in the rocky hills of the Arroyo Seco. Leaving behind his job at the Examiner after a labor dispute, Browne began to concentrate on his goal of creating a "studio of fine printing", envisioning "a print shop with numerous real old-time printers hand-setting type, each printer adorned with whiskers or a full beard." 3

Despite being shorn of any whiskers and modern-minded enough to realize the necessity of a typesetting machine for his printing operation, Browne's notions on printing were firmly set in the traditions of the Roycroft Movement. Roycroft, meaning King's craft, was a variant of the Arts and Crafts Movement, founded by Elbert Hubbard in 1895. Inspired by English printer William Morriss' Kelmscott Press, Hubbard built his own private press to beautifully print his own manuscripts. The Roycroft Press grew into a community of printers, furniture makers, metal smiths, leather smiths and bookbinders in East Aurora, New York. Their creed, of working with the head, hand, and heart and mixing enough play with the work so that every task is pleasurable and makes for health and happiness, must have appealed greatly to Browne. Browne's desire to create a Roycrofters-like community based in the Arroyo Seco, coupled with his aesthetic appreciation of heavy stone, neo-monastic architecture (both that of the European medieval and California Mission styles) informed the purpose and design of the Abbey San Encino. And so he began laying out the plans for his Abbey San Encino in picas - a typographic unit of measure.

Through the years 1915 and 1929 Browne ran afoot and afar, searching out materials for his home "like a dove seeking the olive branch, returning with bits for the walls" and toiled away on a variety of sophisticated construction projects. 4 During the construction years Browne did much of the work himself, but in the year 1921 there was much headway made in the construction as George Ferguson, Jose Corrales, and his son Dario assisted with the masonry. For the walls of his printers' abbey, chapel, cellar, and dungeon Browne used stones gathered from the Arroyo Seco, building a narrow gauge railway with a mine car to haul in the boulders. The railway was named the C.B. and J. Railway -- C.B. for Clyde Browne and J. for his young son Jack (whose birth name was Clyde Browne II, but who almost immediately became known as "Jack"). Along with the Arroyo Seco stone, the colony of buildings was fabricated with stones from Mount Washington, Monrovia Canyon, and Calabasas; granite blocks from a destroyed building that had formerly stood on Grand Avenue; and bricks from an abandoned brick yard, an old poultry yard and the garden of the Mission San Gabriel.

For the bells of the chapel's bell tower Browne scavenged the school bell from Garvanza Elementary School, and bells from a Southern Pacific train and a local fire engine. The windows of the chapel came from a Van Nuys hotel bar that had been shuttered during Prohibition. The frames and timbers of his doors came from railroad ties he would char to show age, their locks and keys also fabricated by Browne. He also carved an eight foot tall grandfather clock, inspired by the bell tower of the Mission San Gabriel, out of a single oak timber and the pipe organ in the chapel was shipped from Germany, but assembled by Browne, who recorded its assembly in a manuscript.

Inside the abbey the interiors were decorated with a hodge podge of scavenged relics and collected treasures. The metal ornaments of the chapel were pounded and shaped from the bodies of old automobiles. Friends gifted Browne with a gargoyle cast from a mold used to produce gargoyles for the Cathedral of Notre Dame, stones from Westminster Abbey and bolts from the Tower of London to decorate his dungeon. Stained glass artists at Highland Park's Judson Studios created a circular window showing a Franciscan printer and an Indian operating a hand press -- a depiction Browne claimed "to represent the first [press] in the Californias, the one at San Francisco Solano Mission which was later used to print manifestos after the Bear Flaggers took charge." 5 Historian Kevin Starr objects to the depiction as "historically untrue" as the Franciscans of California never ran a printing press. 6 While, in fact, this image might be historically inaccurate -- it was Augustin Vicente Zamarano who first brought a Ramage Press to Monterey in 1831, not the Franciscans at the Solano Mission -- it does speak to Brown's deepest ambition to build and foster a community of diverse artisan and craftspeople, dedicated to fine handmade, well-designed goods. Browne admired the image so much he sometime used it as his printers mark.

Browne had set up a small print shop in his home at the Abbey San Encino shortly after moving to Highland Park. In April of 1910 he printed the first number in a periodical titled The Anti, an Iconoclastic Potpourri, Printed for Toilers by a Toiler and for All Who Care for the Different Things. The periodical ceased upon the death of his infant son, William. Also in 1910 Browne began a partnership with Alexander B. Cartwright. Under the imprint Browne and Cartwright they published the "Frosh Bible" for Occidental College. Browne became the college's "semi-official" printer, printing the Student's Handbook, the weekly Occidental, the campus literary magazine Sabretooth, the Occidental Alumnus, a few volumes of La Encina, the campus yearbook, and hundreds of pamphlets, programs, menus and handbills. Browne also printed University of Southern California's daily newspaper and did some job printing for Pasadena College, all while he was also working on the construction of his great Abbey San Encino.

Once completed, the Abbey resembled a ranch-style home, with rooms and studios laid end to end, and encircling a shady courtyard. A wood frame house crawled two to three stories up a hill, housing the Browne family, with the attached apartments home to a variety of tenants, including a painter, wrought iron worker, wood-block cutter, cactus grower, dressmaker, an earthworm grower, and married authors Lanier and Virginia Bartlett , who wrote "Adios!" (1929) and "Los Angeles in 7 Days, Including Southern California" (1932). Scott E. Haselton, a secretary to the Cactus and Succulent Society of America, editor of the society's journal, and later printer for the Abbey Garden Press in Pasadena, also lived at the Abbey. Browne helped Haselton with the layout work for the society's journals and other printed materials.

Browne's printers' abbey was a haven for many of the printers making up Los Angeles' fine printing and bibliophile scene. The printshop was professionally equipped with a Linotype machine, a drum cylinder press, a Kluge automatic feeder platen press, and a hand fed platen press. House Olsen was employed at the Abbey around 1923. He would go on to open the Castle Press with Roscoe Thomas in 1931, using Browne's type and equipment to produce their first pieces. Carl Bigsby also worked for Browne's print shop, later becoming owner of the Compton Printing Company. He may best be known in Los Angeles cemetery lore -- his gravestone, located in the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, is a replica of the Atlas 10B missile launched by the United States in December of 1958. Ward Ritchie and Lawrence Clark Powell rented a studio from Browne, paying him a dollar to use the abbey's printing equipment on Sundays. Powell would later become the head librarian of UCLA's William Andrews Clark Memorial Library, and Ward Ritchie would become one of Los Angeles' most highly regarded fine printer, bibliophile and the founding secretary of the Rounce & Coffin Club, a Southern California book collectors club.

While acting as a mentor to many novice printers Browne continued to run his printing business. Along with his printing jobs for the local colleges, Browne found much work printing handsome engagement announcements, wedding invitations, and birth announcements for the three to five happy couples who would wed weekly in his chapel at the Abbey San Encino.

Browne would sometimes perform as the organ player for these nuptials.

Browne also continued to write and print his own works, including Cloisters of California (1917), which floridly described the California missions and Abbey Fantasy (1929) and Olden Abbey of San Encino (1932) both pamphlets about his Abbey San Encino. He also encouraged his son Jack to pursue the printing craft. Together they shared the imprint "The Fathersonian Press" on How to Live Life (1929) and on a monograph celebrating Jack's marriage called A Couple of Good Scouts (1940).

Browne's last printed piece was a reprint of Ben C. Truman's Tiburcio Vasquez, the Life, Adventure, and Capture of the Great California Bandit and Murderer. Work on the book began in 1941, but Browne fell very ill before he finished. His son Jack completed the book, issuing a limited 100 copies.

Browne died on July 1, 1942 at the Queen of Angels Hospital in Los Angeles.

After Browne's death Jack Browne closed his father's press, sold much of the printing equipment, and enlisted in the army. Stationed in Germany, he worked on the army newspaper Stars and Stripes and played piano in a ragtime band.

Browne remained in Germany after the war and it wasn't until 1951 that Browne, his wife, Beatrice, and their children

Berbie,

Jackson, and

Severin

moved back to California, returning to Clyde Browne's Abbey San Encino.

Jackson Browne was three years old when he moved back into the old Browne family home, but by the time he was twelve his parents had decided it was time to leave Highland Park. "We were starting to become delinquents, carrying chains," said Jackson. He and a friend were caught smoking, and when his friend returned the cop's admonishment with backtalk, they were searched. Jackson held "a mini-arsenal" of chains, a straight-edged German razor and his father's lifted cigarettes. 7

Jackson's time at the Abbey was over, for now, and the family moved into a tract community in Orange County's Fullerton.

As a teenager in 1960s-era Fullerton, Jackson tried various hobbies but nothing quite engaged him like beach hootenannies, guitars, folk music (he especially liked the Los Angeles band The Byrds) and psychedelics. Jackson's craft as a teenage singer-songwriter was influenced by the Southern California folk rock scene of the late 1960s and early 1970s, where hippies and musicians flocked to live among the beauty and nature of Laurel and Topanga canyons, "where musicians gathered in enclaves, up in the hills where the streets turn into dirt roads, and there is a feeling of deeply buried privacy. Amidst the cacti and other exotic vegetation and the tall, majestic palm trees any kind of creativity is enhanced." 8

As a young member of this exceptional group of Southern Californian musicians, who included Linda Ronstadt, J.D. Souther, Van Dyke Parks, and Graham Nash, Jackson flourished. By the time he was eighteen, he had written "These Days," been a short-term member of the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and was combating his shyness well enough to do some gigs in New York City, backing German singer Nico to an audience of Leonard Cohen, Lou Reed, and rock critic Richard Meltzer. Jackson released his self-titled debut album in 1972, to be followed by "For Everyman" in 1973.

The cover of "For Everyman" showed Jackson sitting in a rocker in the shady courtyard of the Abbey San Encino, a beautiful Native American throw at his side, perhaps as a nod to an aesthetic most appreciated by the Arts and Crafts bohemians of the Arroyo Seco of his grandfather's time.

In 1974 Jackson returned to live in the Abbey San Encino with this then-girlfriend Phyllis who was expecting his child. The story of their romance was told in the song "Ready or Not," included on the "For Everyman" album -- in short, he meets her in a bar after getting knocked out by an actor who was bothering her. On his return to the Abbey Jackson remarked, "That house, it's funny, but I've always known I'd live there again some day. I have a real appreciation for the bare walls and plants, and I have a real appreciation for family too. My grandfather was an incredible person. Even back in 1906, he was totally unhappy with modern things. He built that house like something out of the past -- with a pipe organ and stained glass and a choir loft. And now I'm gonna be a father there, in the house where I was a child." 9

Though Clyde Browne and Jackson Browne never met in person, it seems their spirits met in the Abbey San Encino. Both were bohemians who were active in socio-cultural movements in which ideals of beauty and nature informed their craft. Clyde Browne demonstrated his adherence to the principles of beauty, nature and craftsmanship in the construction of his Abbey San Encino and Jackson in the writing and performance of his songs.

The Abbey San Encino stands sturdy in its place in the Arroyo Seco and is now occupied by Jackson's older brother Severin, also a musician. It is occasionally open for tours. Jackson Browne continues to release albums and will be embarking on a solo acoustic tour this summer. Contrary to the inclinations of the previously mentioned unnamed library director, Clyde Browne's printed works can be are held in Special Collections at Occidental College Library and at the UCLA's William Andrews Clark Memorial Library.

[CORRECTION: The article previously mentioned that the circular stained glass window came from a Van Nuys hotel. It was actually manufactured by Judson Studios, while the chapel windows had come from the hotel.]

2003 article:

“When I met (Warren) Zevon a couple of years ago, he repaid the compliment, in a sense. He wasn't buying my theory that Jackson was the classic Mr LA, very laid-back with lots of harmonies. "I have harmonies," Zevon protested. "I think of the songs he's written about deceased friends of ours, and they're much less easily dismissed than my own songs about death. No, Jackson's more complex and... I dunno... dark." And, as Zevon also pointed out, Jackson still has perfect hair.

DARK... He’s a wrong ‘un.

The Hanging Sailor of Perryman

It was one of those research trips: At noon, you’re in the reading room of a historical society, and two hours later, you’re lying facedown in a cemetery. Stories like these don’t come up every day, but when they do, you have to ride them through to their natural conclusion. And this tale begins like a variant on a well-work joke theme: A genealogist, an author, and a rock star walk into a historical society. . . .

I first became aware of their conversation when a man I later knew as Hank Peden uttered the words, “Perhaps he wasn’t soaked in rum. Perhaps he just had a bottle of rum with him when he got buried.” His comments were directed at a younger guy with cool hair and a soul patch beard, who said, “You’ve seen the pictures. The coffin looks like a boat made out of sailcloth. I just wish I could see some evidence of the chains.”

Now, you can’t let a conversation like this pass, so I had to join in. And after an hour’s conversation over lunch, the elements hung together into a great story. The younger guy, a local rocker Kevin Johnston, had been fired up to finally learn the truth about Harford County’s most storied grave site, and Hank, a genealogist who’s a fixture at the Harford County Historical Society, was helping him. The grave was the final resting place of John Clark Monk, better known as the Hanging Sailor of Perryman. You could say this old sea dog is buried at the Spesutia Church of St. George’s Parish in Abingdon, Harford Count, but he’s not buried in the traditional sense of the world. Before he died, Monk made it clear he didn’t want his body to touch dry ground. So the story went that his crew members lowered their captain into an underground vault and suspended him from the ceiling by chains. To ensure that the casket didn’t rot away, it was made of metal (some say it was a lead shroud) and he was soaked in rum. And because the underground vault was topped with four spaced-out stone slabs, the coffins was open to the elements and would swing in the breeze. On top of the slabs stands a six-foot stone sarcophagus containing the remains of the sailor’s daughter. To get a good look at the seaman’s plot, however, you need to lie facedown at one of the gaps between the stones, shield your eyes from the glare, and wait until your eyes get used to the darkness. Down there beneath the ground are two stone shelves reaching across the chamber, about halfway above the left-strewn floor. Perched on both shelves is a strange container that looks like a sculpture of sailcloth wrapped around a canoe. It’s impossible to see the whole thing at once, but by sliding along between the cracks, it becomes clear that it’s roughly coffin-shaped and coffin-sized. But what it’s made of if anyone’s guess. The weird thing is that you can see bones on the floor of the chamber. Amid the rusting of flashlights dropped by nighttime visitors and sticking up from the leaves that nature contributed to the chamber floor, there are ribs and what looks like a skull.

Kevin Johnston is so taken with the story of the land-fearing sailor that he been in touch with the surviving descendants of John Monk to restore the swinging coffin to its original subterranean glory. There are no objections to the project from the church or the cemetery caretaker, but as yet, the plan is only in its initial stages. So perhaps the swinging sailor will rock once more in his underground lair. Until then, the only thing about John Monk that rocks is the song Kevin wrote about his legend, called “The Swinging Sailor of Perryman,” which his band, the Captain Quint, performs. Given that they are trop rockers (as in tropical), we’re not sure whether their audiences are soaked i rum or just carrying a bottle.

Wild Wild West (1999)

Wild Wild West features a nonsensical plot that’s filled with plot holes and bad humor. It’s a glorious mess; a movie so bad, it becomes awesome.

In 1869, federal agent James West (Will Smith) plays by his own rules and shoots before even thinking about which questions he wants to ask. He’s teamed up with mad genius Artemus Gordon (Kevin Kline). Together, they must stop Dr. Arliss Loveless (Kenneth Branaugh) who, along with his harem of sexy women and his band of southern rebels, plan on killing President Ulysses S. Grant (Kline, again) and seizing control of the country.

Everything that transpires is so absurd it becomes impossible to suspend your disbelief. People’s peripheral vision is so poor they miss huge war machines advancing towards them until they're about to get squished. Lovelace’s minions wait for hours in a room in one of the most outlandish traps ever... just to surprise a character they don’t even know is coming. Evil minions fall over dead for no reason, Gordon builds incredibly complex devices in a matter of minutes as long as it’s off-screen, people forget how to use common sense and get killed by the dozens. That's before we get into the steampunk technology that's beyond anything we can assemble today. Audiences will wonder if anything that transpires here would work on any plane of logic whatsoever. As it turns out, however, none of that really matters.

The film features splendid special effects and the actors take their roles seriously (as seriously as you can when dealing with comedic material), which makes it clear that Wild Wild West was a beautiful mistake. The story overflows with anti-logic. It offers handfuls of bad jokes (many centered around cross-dressing) and hammy moments of what director Barry Sonnenfeld would pass off as emotional. Over and over, you'll be flabbergasted at what happens on the screen. You'll be laughing so hard at the film’s horrendous attempts at being awesome.

How this all went so wrong is hinted at in the special features included on the DVD. While the end credits of the film play, you'll hear Will Smith’s song “Wild Wild West”. Check out the music videos and trailers included with the film. You'll see how this film was sold as all kinds of different things, including a hip western flick (complete with rap!), an action movie with Will Smith in the lead and Salma Hayek as his romantic interest... and no hints of Kevin Kline whatsoever! I don’t want to reveal too much about the plot. This is one of those movies where you cannot believe what kind of bullshit they try and sell you. You'll keep expecting twists, revelations that a character is a double agent because there’s no way they could be that stupid. But no, they’re just that stupid. Then you’ll become convinced that there's no way the bad guy could get any more super-villainy... until he pulls out a doomsday weapon which makes his previous one seem like nothing. It’s got a lot of memorable lines that are so cringe-inducing you can’t help but laugh. You'll be so busy picking your jaw off the floor by the constant twists and turns or the impossible gadgets that come out of thin air that you’ll miss big chunks of the story, giving Wild Wild West great re-watch value.

If you want a great time with your friends, get together and watch Wild Wild West, a movie so crazy I'm nearly convinced it was written by a 13-year old boy and then shot by a group of professionals who accepted his word as pure genius. What we've got here is so unbelievable it breaks the bad comedy curse and manages to be a movie that's never funny in the way it intends to be, but makes you laugh non-stop. Then, it serves up a finale that's got to be seen to be believed. Wild Wild West is awful, but wonderfully unforgettable. (On DVD, May 23, 2014)
