"So tell me is it true you're writing about us here and you and I we could make a movie together I'm going to make films one day and for prom last year I took a twenty-one-year-old stripper from The Gentlemen's Club and my father he is still a swinger and he's fifty-three. Have you seen the latest Stanley Kubrik movie and Mrs. Jackson flashed her tits at me but don't put that in your story but could you make me taller please and let me ask you this can you believe I totaled my Camaro on Blackman Avenue when I hit that parked Ford 150 and no one talk for a minute you know, I'm so bright I mean I'm incandescent!"

A breath. A gulp of Diet Coke.
