I suffered the strangest visions the other day as I watched a bit of Greenspans testimony. I kept seeing him in pig tails. It wasn't a pretty sight.
The admiring, tender questioners. Allie's teasing coyness. He was demure, he was flirtatious. The subtle smile (and with that mouth, this is no mean feat), the quiet chuckle. And almost everybody seemed so damned pleased to be there. Either Allie has a direct line to the Big Cigars or he was a giggling Scandinavian girl in pig tails in his last life and the aura still remains.
Louis: Have you considered Wellbutrin? My bi-polar friend says its the only med that didn't effect his sex drive adversely and perhaps a little the opposite. Ater years of med resistance, I've started it and have found it very helpful.
Please explain why this isn't a crisis of underconsumption? Of course I guess if Capitalism allowed widespread consumption of needs it would kinda be Socialism.
>Tampa is a difficult place
Hi Frances-
USF Was the scene of the acceleration of my ruination, but the one lifeline that was thrown to me was from a philosophy prof whose name escapes me at the moment. I've wondered what would have happened if I'd followed that beacon, parents said philosophy wasn't practical. So I took a bunch of drugs and dropped out in my senior year instead. Back then the University restarant was the only game near campus that was open late and we used to see all those blonde wrestling guys there. The best thing about Tampa was that it wasn't South Florida. you could always go to Sarasota and play with the New College kids. Or out to Lutz. Lutz, that's right isn't it? I wish USF would go on-line so I could take the Financial Planning program. If they'd take my credits. I still couldn't deal with snooty humanities profs, especially now that I know how little they know. Back then I was totally intimidated. Ever go to the Columbian in Ybor City? We had some great times and food there.
Hey is an English Prof named Bentley still there? I was totally intimidated by him. I got an A on the modern lit mid-term and questioned him about it because I really didn't grasp the material and he huffed up and said "Well, it's only a sophomore class." The dumb fuck was clueless, but it would take me a few years and a lot of reading to realize it. I just quit going to his class.
I have a paper around here, in a box, that has that Philosophy prof's name on it , I'll let you know when I find it. He was really a wonderful guy.
3000. Mark is such a tease.
