Or maybe it is because I've known a lot of alcoholics. He's supposed to be close to releasing his 3rd memoir. About his relationship with his father.


ETA links to places where I invented this discussion. Because I'm feeling a bit snarky today.

Look at that. I was feeling snarky on 7-22-2004 also. Maybe it's a trend.

Hot chocolate spiked with peppermint schnapps. Pretty tasty. And a good way to get rid of peppermint schnapps.

I went to a Barnes & Noble booksigning in Union Square last year to meet him (well, to see him sign books and stuff -- we didn't actually meet). He's hot.

The only interpretation that makes any sense is that they don't like you.

Nonsense. Everyone loves BRC.

Gwnc, I'm sorry to hear about your date. I feel personally responsible. I told Nigel to use the "Audrey Hepburn" line (sebby, not all of us are blessed with your savoir faire when it comes to the chicks, and we need an something to fall back on when we get tongue-tied), but I didn't realize that he would manage to slam your hobby while doing so.

At least I persuaded him not to talk about his GI Joe collection.(Uh, right?)

Of course. How could one possibly make a Sedaris connection- all gays writers are the same?

Me Talk Pretty One Day has the obvious tie to Wilde, but its not about a painting as much?

I am both vulgar and wimpy when it comes to the cold. I cannot bring myself to say that I'm a big pussy though. I guess you'd have to ask Mr Man about that.

Not the same. DS seems to be willing to take it in the ass.

That was a bit vulgar wasn't it?

A proper host knows that it is considered good manners to have an unopened bottle of peppermint schnapps on hand for guests, in the event that guests should like to freshen up after eating the host's ass.

Yes. Well done. From there it is only a short distance to punching and kicking people in the head. Yay!

Not vulgar at all. DebtSlave's anal fetish is something of an old skool legend, after all.

Dude, Audrey Hepburn? She's been dead longer than the average Starbucks latte jockey has been alive. What would you think if a chick told you you looked like James Dean? I'd check to see if she was wearing a girdle. Audrey Hepburn's a sex star to the false teeth set.

The safest place to put a restless tongue is your drink.
