Jack Gladney seems like the type of person who would write “Springtime for Hitler”

15-PAGE GEORGE HARRISON INTERVIEW YIPPEEEE!!!

He described some of his acid trips as “like Memphis blues again to be stuck inside.” George may have been Bob Dylan’s biggest fan I fear

learning as much Beatles lore as possible to become even more insufferable

“Murder on the Links” didn’t interest me as much as I hoped it would. It felt overly complicated and clumsy in some aspects. Poirot himself says that complexity doesn’t necessarily equate to cleverness when he first sees the crime scene.

not Shirley MacLaine name dropping John Lewis in her memoir for being a lightweight

big fan of freedom rides

genuinely upset I didn’t know who “the boy from Troy” was up until 2 months ago. John Lewis, you’re so cool

Codeine, whiskey, aspirin, a laxative, and a sleeping pill is a crazy remedy for a toothache

Nice try Shirley but I know better than to trust a ventriloquist

I don’t want to imagine myself sending emails, networking, and entertaining guests with crackers and liverwurst. Corporate life is a prison
