So, I finally read the Christopher Hitchens piece, Why Chicks Aren't Funny (I don't think that that is its real title, but it should be), which is in the January issue of Vanity Fair.

The following line caught my eye:

• If I am correct about this, which I am, then the explanation for the superior funniness of men is much the same as for the inferior funniness of women. Men have to pretend, to themselves as well as to women, that they are not the servants and supplicants. Women, cunning minxes that they are, have to affect not to be the potentates. This is the unspoken compromise.

If given the opportunity, one should always marry someone rich.

Man law?

For the record, just so we are clear, I did not marry rich.

I made my money the old fashioned way. I inherited it.

Except for the people dying part, that's far superior.

And that there's not much you can do about it once you're born. (unless you can set your dad/mom up with someone loaded . . . Manlaw)

The finest writer I have ever read. I could read Hitchens all fucking day. That piece was fantastic.

Read it twice. You missed a lot first time around.

If you think he's pedantic, that's more a comment on you than him.

That you felt the need to note this difference makes me want to see your tits all the more.

That was the advice my friend's father gave him. He (friend's father) married a very rich woman (friend's mother). They later divorced. But everyone now is happy - except my friend's mother. But at least she's still rich!

This seems like a contradiction--rich, but not happy?

Maybe I should qualify even further.

No one has died yet. But there is a trust.

I read that on an airplane recently, and thought of the wars on the fb of a couple weeks ago. I knew there was something I wished to report on, and that was it.

Curse you, NotBob.

That depends a lot on the people.
