I compliment Ckottos on his fine taste. He prompted me to
start a list of
"best sign-offs," which of course includes Mari Hall's latest
and Bill's
"Caveat." Slightly off any RA topic, but here are a couple of
favorites
from other sources.
"I hate leaving my house unless I'm getting paid for
it."
--Anthony Geary
"I've never met anyone who made it with a chick because they
owned a Tom
Waits album. I've got all three, and it's never helped me."
--Tom Waits
[I should add that Waits has written and sung some of the
darkest songs
recorded. Think his latest is called "Beautiful
Maladies."]
Perhaps Bill won't mind if folks send in some of their best
hard-boiled
one-liners?
Inattentively,
Bill Hagen
