On Two Ways Of Looking At 'Tiny Furniture'
EG, you rock; Tiny Furniture does not. I thought @ first it was a satire about narcissism, until it began to dawn that the auteur wasn't in on the joke. Being closer to the mother's age, I wondered from whence sprung her money and sense of entitlement. Did people buy her shitty one-trick art and make her that rich? I could go on, but I has me standards.

On Drunk Man Disliked Women
Being around a tsking church lady-type like Pollitt would swerve my buzz toward the grumpy side too.
I once read a blog in which the writer briefly considered signing on for a Nation cruise, but scotched the idea at the thought of the line of pale flabby men queued up to get in the hot tub w/ Katarina VandenHeuvel.
Classy move, Katha, gossiping about a dead guy. If I ever found myself on a boat w/ laugh-a-minute Katha I'd take my chances going over the rail. "L'enfer, c'est les autres."

On Where You Can't Smoke Next
Nobody likes a quitter. Except guys like Mike, whose growth was stunted from watching Newport ads during the Million Dollar Movie. Bitter, abstemious, boring. And those are his GOOD qualities.
