Erstwhile Okie on Saint Mark's Place. Frustrated novelist, satisfied father.
Miltoning, sometimes described as the art of not writing Paradise Lost before fifty.
Got to visit American Dream (the mall, not the beau idรฉal, as evidenced by the fact that it is in New Jersey). What a nice day; what a lucky, happy guy.
