This post is especially for Randy. I read this today and
it was too delicious to keep to myself.
"I will be sorry to leave this life, as soon I must. It
is so full of wonder, as well as horror. A surprise around
every cornor and the pace is hotting up. He is the one who
got the commission to script the story of the world. He is
a B picture writer by nature, that's the trouble, his sights
are set so low. If he gets into a plot difficulty, he does something spectacular and thoroughly unlikely; sinks the Titanic, explodes Krakatoa, kills Kennedy, thinks up watergate, pulls down the Berlin Wall and his latest plot
extravaganza is to bring captilism tumbling down by way of
the Fourth Estate. excerpted from
Chalcot Crescent by Fay Weldon.
This is a witty book as Fay Weldon's usually are. Perhaps Randy will find this funny.
