"xxvii –
alright, I just have to say this. it is.... SO funny to me... that after 2 pages explaining all the ways other people have screwed up factoids, numbers, names, in their watergate books.......

amazing. no notes. perfect.
anyway, june 13, 1971 was a sunday, not a saturday, and tricia nixon got married on the 12th" — Mar 09, 2026 06:17PM

“I can never read all the books I want; I can never be all the people I want and live all the lives I want. I can never train myself in all the skills I want. And why do I want? I want to live and feel all the shades, tones and variations of mental and physical experience possible in my life. And I am horribly limited.”
