hi frankie,
good to hear from you. i think Mr.T (thats mario, isn't it?)
decided to go on sabbatical (i think thats a vacation) for a
couple months. i haven't read woodrell, but that doesn't mean
much... i'm just now getting into the hardboiled thing. right
now i'm watching the lana turner "the postman always rings
twice" movie.
i'm getting ready to try out crumley's _the last good kiss_.
gotta finish burke's
_black cherry blues_, and then read my first chandler, and
then i'll be able to read crumley for the first time. and oh!
i took the list's advice, got on ebay for the first time, and
i've got charles williams's _river girl_ coming too.
wahoo!
and by the way... is it just the couple beers i've had, or
does lana turner really have a very fine set of legs?

1997. Mostly on. I
almost feel like you guys are my friends. Like Big Boss Bill,
the Marks
(Sullivan and Blumenthal), Jim (who was absent for a while),
the Dougs - all of you. The Finnish guy - forget his name.
And the new friends like miker. You've taught me so much. And
not forgetting Mario - where are you?

contribute some more in the
future. I'm amazed - not only by all the knowledge you
disclose, but also by the powerful opinions you assert. I
must admit - when I've read a book, I'm not always so sure if
it was a good or a bad book. But I know what I like.

> And my favourite is James Crumley. But another
favourite of mine is Daniel
Woodrell. He's not much mentioned on the list - why is that?
He is hard-boiled, ain't he?
