Greenspan: The first draft of my book actually had a lot of steamy sex scenes in it, but my publisher was afraid they wouldn’t stock it at Wal-Mart.
Simpson: Don’t get me started on publishers. Have you seen my book’s cover? They made the “If ” in the title so small it looks like the title is “I Did It.” I mean, talk about exploitative. It’s like if Herman Melville’s publisher printed “Moby” in tiny letters so that people would think the book was called “Dick.”
Oh I kid that alleged killer and that alleged creator of the sub-prime crisis. Go read another hilarious S&M at the New Yorker.

Landed in your blog quite accidentally – n am I glad!! Read this post and ended up reading the one before this one n then the one before that one n then the one before that one...
N the whole trip brought back these lines (tho totally out of context with this particular post of yours – apologies for the disconnect) I read somewhere. Sadly don’t recall the poet:
I live on a wedge of land
Reclaimed from a tired ocean
Somewhere in the edge of the universe
Where it is perfectly historical
To be looking out
On a sooty patch of ocean…
Searching for god
