Her mother would send her ALL the new releases in a box every week and this girl would ensconce herself on the couch on Saturday mornings with a cup o' tea and wouldn't MOVE (except for refills and the call o' nature) until she'd read every damned one. The reading orgy would last until sometime Sunday, depending on the weight of the current shipment. Thanks for the memory (srsly!), J.R.

There's just one thang ...<i>I say write it now...</i><br /><br />There's just one thang lacking: motivation. But I appreciate the encouragement and kind words, Dan. As for the "experience...", yeah. You're right.

I say write it now; the ensuing years and "distance" from the subject will provide you with the necessary objectivity. It would make a nice project and you could easily publish it as an ebook on Kindle. I'm not kidding. <br /><br />And when the movie version is cast, I suggest Ben Affleck for the role of Urban.<br /><br />I did note your mention of the bordello location and "experience" with "certain potential characters." But I'm sure you were probably referring to Urban and/or Ralph Hunter. :-)Dapper Danhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01230099347154360809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-55292980722449416092012-11-12T11:36:06.407-07:002012-11-12T11:36:06.407-07:00Especially the bar staff.<i><b>Especially</b> </i> the bar staff.Buckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05319116022465066060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18232353.post-80431876685343183922012-11-12T11:34:36.518-07:002012-11-12T11:34:36.518-07:00Thang ya, fellers!
