away! away! for i will fly to thee

i've almost killed my second venti coffee of the day, folks. that's 40 ounces. 5 cups. i can't sit still.

the agent and i have started a book club, of which we are the only members. our first book shall be f. scott fitzgerald's "tender is the night". has anyone read it? i was thinking "the beautiful and damned" should be first, but the agent's suave persuasion won me over.

moby dick is the only proper way to begin a book club, my friend. that way, both of you know where you stand.

there will be no ass-spanking on this site, agent.

beautiful and the damned, despite a fangtastic title, is sub-par fitzgerald imho.

finishing the first 50 pages of 'tender' this week, so i'll let you know what i think, scarny.

are you reading Kentucky Fried Tender by Athenian playboy Spencer Simeril? How'd you land a copy of that gem? I guess buying anything is possible in NY!
