does it get real? i find your alcoholism so charming. it is one of my favorite qualities. i might have to call you up to go drinking when nobody else wants to go drinking. i am so disgusting. the list hasn t dwindled. we should get back to the story wherever we were. realistically i don t know how i feel, but you of all people, have you written several books. you know exactly how hard it is to convince a publisher to let you write a book with teensie toddler fingers. they go, do we have to get them a special laptop or something? how will we bang that out on the keyboard? you are absolutely right. they look like the guys from big on the piano. don t laugh at that. i can t help it. is it best for a juror not to write a book? no, everybody in the courtroom should write a book. the publisher is a wimp.
