I didn't actually want to read that but I got into about 10 pages of les miserables and wanted to kill myself

I don't know, I got about 30 pages in and then her girlfriend took it to her room.
Just as well, it was quite technical and not very interesting to me.

I always liked those ones we had in our bookshop which were american imports
they'd have some painting of some woman in a posh frock and some dude in a suit, then a kind of secondary front cover in which the woman had her frock off her shoulder and the guy's shirt was undone or even off, shocking! They always made me laugh

nearest thing I read to porn was probably Poppy Z Brite, but that's just a vampire book with a lot of sex in it

i suppose i am a bit particular about my porn

You know I'm going to say it
But I'll say it because I can.

I've stood on the grassy knoll, you know. Three times.

Because Dallas is my second favourite US city after Portland, Oregon.

You can say it. Doesn't mean I understand it.

It's a strange place
Kennedy was killed five years before I was born, and five thousand miles away, but it's an incredibly moving place to be.

Maybe because I expected to be moved. I don't know. Maybe it's where the concept of the media circus was born out of tragedy.

I'll go there again, and I suppose I'll feel the same sensation of a time and place again.
