After reading Jeremy Mercer's book about living in a famous Paris bookstore, "time was soft there," this columnist is considering the merits of dropping by the editorial offices of Kilometer Zero magazine and chatting up the publisher in hopes of getting something published in that literary publication. Should the World's Laziest Journalist do that and write columns about the effort? "Yes, yes, yes! Of course! Now run along and play."
Should this columnist make an effort to fact check and write a column about experiencing the 24 Hour race at Le Mans first hand? "Yes, yes, yes! Of course! Now run along and play."
Would it be worth the effort to write a column calling the attention of fans of the film "Apocalypse Now" to the fact that in Robert L. Carringer's book, "The Making of Citizen Kane," we learned that before making that movie, Orson Wells spent time working on a possible modernized film version of Joseph Conrad's novel "Heart of Darkness"?
Our boss, whom we have just quoted, also used to give some colorful advice about what to do in case Los Angeles became the target for a Russian nuclear attack: "Run towards the flash!"
Now, the disk jockey will play Orson Wells version of the song "I know what it is to be young; you don't know what it means to be old," the Doors' "The End," and the soundtrack album for "Good morning Vietnam!" We have to go buy a pair of track shoes. Have a "terminate Col. Gaddafi's command" type week.
