NO, never! I just saw the Wars of the Roses on tape, too (I have the second tet on video -- the first is on YouTube!) but I would love to see him in one of his one-man shows -- I just got some of his books.

You are one of two other people on the site who owns Pennington's and Bogdanov's Wars of the Roses! I must 'friend' you.

it's what joyce said abt. masterbation: the amazing availablity of it. you must have a few weighty tomes?

I see you have the same approach to books that I have - I have always been a great believer that physical contact with and nearness to books obviates the need to actually read them, as whatever they contain is bound to find its way into one's brain :-)

Very impressive library: eclectic; admirable.
