![]() She teaches doctrines with every step that would make the pagan gods of lust canonize her with glee. Ah, what an angel of the Lord, this, I thought musing, this heiress of the druglord Father's severed head. Let me return to the scene, the three of us gathered in the black-lacquered Chinese chairs around the thick glass table, and Dora coming in, at once struck by the presence of him, of which her mortal senses hadn't given her a clue, a pretty picture with her short gleaming knavish black hair, cut high to show the fragile nape of her swanlike neck, her long supple body clad in a loose ungirdled gown of purple red tissue that folded itself about her small breasts and slender thighs exquisitely. As for the bundle he had carried in his arms, what could it have possibly been? I do not even think I thought of it. I remember only that the morning hastened us away, and if you cried too, I never heard you, I never thought to listen. Believe me, as you believe what you saw last night, the wildflowers clinging still to my hair, the cuts-look, my hands, they heal but not fast enough-believe me. Yes, but I have, he said, and now began to cry.I have, and I must tell you everything. We had to seek our dark corners away from the prying sun, we had to wait until the following night when he would come out to us and tell us what had happened.īut the worst, the very worst horror of all, was that one eye had been torn from his beautiful face, and the socket of vampiric lids puckered and shuddered, seeking to close, refusing to acknowledge this horrid disfigurement to the body rendered perfect for all time when he'd been made immortal. I cannot wait for the next episode.A deep exhaustion saved us all from the inevitable tale. Now, here is the metaphysical issue that the writers could do some thinking upon in their newly-acquired strike-permitted spare time: is it the WRITING that is the problem? So, if Leno just stood up and said stuff off the top of his head would that be okay? Is there a difference between what he thinks up and what he writes down? There cannot be.so where is their guild's jurisdiction? Leno says too bad, seems I'm pretty good at this and I'm going to keep on keepin' on. If he's funny without them, what do THEY do for a living? My god, is it possible that Leno can DO HIS JOB? Are writers obsolete? Is Letterman just plain boring? So many questions! So few answers! He must not write his own stuff, he must sit still and wait for them to figure this problem out. What a quandry!! The writers' guilds then went into swift action, saying that Leno MUST NOT BE FUNNY until the end of the strike. Letterman, despite the phalanx of writers, was not so funny. He did, and people laughed their heads off his ratings soared. ![]() These writers have made a deal with Letterman such that they can for some Byzantine reason write for him despite this strike not so Leno who decided what the hell, I used to be a funny guy, I'll just do it myself. Whether anyone actually notices is another issue but it is certainly riling up some people, mostly the writers themselves. There is a writers' strike in the US right now that is threatening the very fabric of the country, meaning that very soon there will be nothing new to watch on TV. In fact, we could suggest it is near never-happens rare.īut, the NYT business section last week had a story about the battle between Jay Leno, a funny man with a late night talk show, and David Letterman, also allegedly funny and with a late night talk show. It is a rare event to find something laugh-out-loud funny in the business section.
